    Maximum workbench depth ?

    Mine is 96" x 25" and seems perfect for me. Wish I had your luck, I looked for over a year for cheap used butcher block or bowling lane wood. Gave up because the best price was new at Menards specially with my rebates.

    Lets see your workbench

    My new workbench is complete (minus the junk that will fill it soon). Base cabinets are the Husky Heavy Duty 5 drawers I bought in November. I've been saving up my Menards rebates to buy the butcherblock and just added the 4 coats of Waterlox to seal it from moisture. At least I'll enjoy it...

    Overwhelmed

    Ditto! Contact the reputable vendors on here and read read read. You'll find a wealth of information here to help with your decision. What I wouldn't do is apply acrylic and then have to go back and redo it all over again. Trust me once is enough. Remember time is money too.

    Help! I Chipped my armorpoxy floor!

    I dropped a 4" vise on mine a couple months ago and chipped it. It's barely noticeable, but I see it every time I'm in the garage and my OCD makes me twitch.

    Fire Pit suggestions

    Breeo came highly recommended to me by a friend. It's still on my wishlist though

    Botched or normal epoxy system install?

    Kind of looks like a granola bar to me. :)

    Husky Heavy Duty Welded Cabinets

    I was watching the NewAge Pro's as well, but the price was just too steep. I just picked up a pair of the 5 drawer Husky Heavy Duty base cabinets on sale for $278 each. Wow, they are heavy duty and nice! Each cabinet is almost 200 lbs. with soft close drawers and liners. I'm not real fond of...

    Need music in my shop...best setup?

    When my old receiver died, I was going to buy a cheap amp and connect my old speakers, but found a good deal on a new soundbar and connect via wifi. The sound quality is actually really good and I didn't have to run a bunch of wires.

    Who ate my freakin' measuring tape now???

    I second the missing sock analogy...which reminds me of one of my favorite radio commercials http://www.pondsf.com/build/dropcam-missing-sock/ Maybe they grew little cotton legs and jumped out the bedroom window like fluffy cotton paratroopers

    Just use Rustoleum's 2 part epoxy repair. It's cheap and it works just fine.

    Norklad 200 prep? Primer?

    Did you contact Devoe/Norklad/Colorchips and ask them for bulk pricing on their primer? They probably have it, just not advertised. I used their primer and was very happy with it...

    Exterior Concrete Coatings Recommendation ?

    I used Daich RollerRock on my last patio and really liked it. It has a gritty finish, but no so much that it hurts to walk on with bare feet. I had no issues walking on with wet feet after getting out of the hot tub. I've since moved but it seemed very durable. I would call or email them...

    Flooring Headache

    This is the link to my thread that explains what I had to do. I didn't remove the good areas, just sanded and solvent wiped them, and it worked just fine. I did recoat the whole garage so it would look consistent. You could give it more time to see if it will cure, but mine was still...

    Flooring Headache

    Sounds like the same issue I had which was the resin and hardener had spots that weren't mixed completely. Sorry to say but it will never harden. You'll need to scrape the soft spots, sand, and solvent wipe with xylol. You may be able to get away with spot repairs, but you'll probably have...
