I moved mine using an engine hoist. Furniture dolly won't be stable enough on your driveway. And if you are saying the truck won't come up your driveway, then I'd say you need to get a forklift or a different delivery service. When I say I moved mine with an engine hoist, that was after the...

J channel or starter strip, which is intended for that purpose. Pull off some siding. Look at the back....you may find manufacturer and other info printed on the back.

Couple of thoughts.....gonna be great! 1) Make your garage doors 10' wide. You won't regret that. 2) Don't need 16" high in the left bay unless you are putting very tall vehicles in there. 14' would be plenty high. 3) Don't put furnace in the attic. Just go with 2 mini splits. One for each...

Amazing with the tubes that take the balls to the end! I have a Fisher brand pool table. It has a 3 piece slate top. I've moved it twice. On my table the balls run down tracks on either side. It's a very simple ball return system compared to that brunswick one!!

LOL....I'm a little slower at 76 than 46 which was slower than 26. But not much slower!!! Did 20 miles on the bike today...pedaling, that is...

I have a 1982 Baldwin model R and absolutely love it. Great piano, great feel and great sound! A yamaha C3 is a great one, but I didn't want to spend that much... I got a really good deal on the baldwin about 15 years ago.

Cool collection of tools! I still have and use my 1971 sears toolbox (I fixed it up a few years ago) and my 1971 1/2" drive 12 point Wards Power Craft socket set. But ,like you, I've added a TON since then!

I think your woodshop room is going to annoy you in that it will make the garage feel too small. If you can swing it, make your garage a little bigger. The 32' depth is good but you should make the width 32 or 36 feet. Then you could easily add an inside staircase. Thinking some more about...

My shed was pre-built but sits on a full concrete slab. What I did to keep critters out was staple wire mesh all around the base. This works. I keep a 1500 lb tractor inside. No problems with the floor strength.

I have a 12x16 shed. Made by the amish but perfectly matches my house siding, roof, etc. I had a concrete base poured and I tied the shed to the base with simpson ties. Ran electricity to it. I have the following in it and it's pretty crammed: deere x758 tractor with grass catcher, a front...

I like your layout on the left. And definitely keep the shower!! I didn't put in a shower and I regret it!!!

Will be very cool to see how this all comes together!! My questions and comments: 1) I presume the dimensions are exterior. So the interior will be more like 31 x 59 2) For 6 cars wide, this allows 10 feet per car. I find that to be rather tight. I would have gone 72 feet wide for 6 bays...

Wow!! 29 yards of mulch???!!! That's a huge pile! I just moved 7 yards and that was a lot. I did something cool....bought a new deere tractor, X758. And I bought an aftermarket FEL - CTC 4750+. Wow, having a bucket to move the mulch was so very nice!! My justification is that I'm getting...

I bought a folding aluminum trailer from Northern tool a few years back. It's 4'x8' and I store it in my shed when not being used. Not the easiest thing to unbolt and fold but it's doable.

Sounds like a cool project. I would definitely NOT do a dry pour. I would not have confidence in this lasting long. I've poured a ton of small pads myself. It's easy to get a good result. I would think even paying 2K$ would make sense.
