Awesome, thanks guys ;)

Not exactly garage, (could be if you have finished areas), but you guys are so darn smart I had to ask. Paint chipped off the wall so of course I picked on it a little. Is this mold?

Electric furnace is struggling to keep temp. Air coming from the duct is cool-lukewarm. Rheem unit. Air filter is clean, coil element in the duct is clean. There are two circuit breakers on the unit. CB1 powers the brains and 1/3 of the heating elements. CB2 looks to just power 2/3 of the...

I was looking at thread on another board, guy has "6 or 7 8ft sections of Fluorescent Light fixtures. These have been used in my old garage and I just don't need them any more. The ballasts are Triad B432I120RH-4 (F32 T8) and the bulbs are all Phillips F32 T8 700 Series 32 watt (Hg) Also...

yes, pole barn construction, sorry, big detail left out there. Poles are 7' 6" apart, so that side has 4 poles total. Snowfall, I do not know what the 100 year number is, but I'm positive that we average less than 2' of snow per year, usually small dusters and amounts under 6" at a time. Good...

having a metal roof, I may be asking for a flashing nightmare or is it less complicated than I have pictured?

what if the new roof is able to be tucked up under the overhang of the exisiting? It's a tiny overhang, but one nonetheless. like so:

awesome, thanks kevin :thumbup:

Hey guys, long time no see. I sheetrocked/drywalled (5/8") the 3 car that is attached to the house this past weekend and wondered if the new lower angle of the rails and specifically the opener would create any problems? Both openers and bars seem to be at a pretty big angle now, tracks don't...

3 days left... bump for the babies tons of requests coming in, the "santas" are putting in some major hours this year, thank you to everyone who has requested a letter.

I currently have a 30x30 with 10' side walls. On one side, I would like to put up a lean-to/carport area to store stuff and maybe park the trailer or DD. I would like the area to be 10-12' wide, the length of the building. Pitch would have to be minimal, like maybe even a 2/12 to be able to...

since free parking is no longer, thought that I would put this in here for people to read/buy If you have kids, nieces, nephews, etc that still believe in Santa Claus, this is a great gift for them, and for a great cause at the same time. The volunteers take the fields as you have filled them...

I've seen where people have clearcoated emblems and such into their floors, but how hard do you think it would be to clearcoat a decal or a poster into a fridge door? If clearcoating a poster, should it be laminated first?

wow 3 months later and I'm finally getting back to doing this this weekend picked up some 1/2" x 4" redibolts, 1-1/2" for the base plate, 2-1/2" into the concrete floor should hold it, eh? I'm excited. Just one wall is totally going to change this shop.

Picked up a fridge for the shop today. It's ok the way it is, but I may liven it up a bit with a fresh paint job, some vinyl graphics, signage, unique finish, who knows. Post up pics of your fridge if it has a non-standard finish or ideas of what I could possibly do to Brown Betty to liven her...
