Thanks for everyone’s input. But I think I am more confused on which method than before. I spoke with some fence installers local to the area and they all use a depth of 4 ft and use concrete?

Should be right around 4ft How do you cap the top of the PVC? I will be using pressure treated wood

Hello everyone, I am building a wooden privacy fence is Alberta Canada. Our soil is a few inches of top soil and then clay. I have been researching and reading a lot of different ways to set the posts. I am planning to go 4 feet down and the fence to be 6ft tall. Sounds like the concrete...

Hello Everyone, I am currently to buy a house with a attached garage that is 706sqf with 10 foot ceilings. At my old shop I had a large radiant tube heater and loved the heat it put out and silent operation. I am wondering with only having 10 foot ceilings if that would damage the paint on...

Hello I have noticed that my intake heater on the radiant heater is not insulated. I have noticed that some of other heaters I have seen are insulated. I am wondering why it would have to be? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hello everyone, So I have a 36x34 shop with a 12.6ft ceiling height. I have a radiant tube heater installed. I also have a ceiling fan that is wired to rotate to push the air down from the ceiling. I am wondering if it is worth the electricity to run it to help the heater out with pushing the...

Hey guys thanks for the replys. I would love a concrete pad for the shed. But at that price your building a garage. I have talked with a few contractors around here and they mentioned that the 6x6 box filled with gravel works well or put the shed on 6x6 skids underneath it. I like the gravel...

Hey guys. I am currently planning to build a large shed. I am thinking maybe a 12x 24. I plan on storing a few quads and snowmobile and general storage. My questions are what size would you guys recommend? What type of foundation should it be on? I live in Alberta Canada so frost heaves do...

Sounds like laying down some woven fabric on top of my base I have now is the way to do it. Seems like a lot of people have positive results with it. How has yours been holding up? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So I have a few questions about the fabric I have been reading about. Who all on here has used and the results of it? What is the difference from the woven and non woven? I have put down new gravel every summer and it seems to disappear by next spring. My yard way and drive way are very stiff...

That looks awesome in the corner. I just added some railing on mine. But had to leave adequate clearance for the heater Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Project up date. I decided to go with a 8x12' loft with a 6x6 as a support in the corner Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey guys. Looking to build my loft today and still wondering if I should double up the outer edge with 2 2x6 the part that will span over the shop floor and go to the 8x8 support in the middle. I am worried that one 2x6 will sag over time with weight on it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any body have any idea how to secure a post to a shop floor to be able to use that hoist frame? Or any other ideas for a lift up to loft Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
