I've got about a dozen or so of the round shades and four of the angled. Any market for these things? I pulled the photos off of Ebay, I didn't have any photos of mine handy. If needed I can dig them out of my garage attic and forward pictures of the actual units if desired. Edit: Bought...

Any recommendations from you guys? Typical useage will be laying out foundations, hanging cabinets, drop ceiling installation, grade work. Right now I'm considering a Johnson kit at Home Depot for $399.00 that comes with head unit, detector, tripod, telescoping 8'3" reference pole, etc. Rented...

I'm glad that it's up and I'm getting utility from it, but MAN do I miss the actual construction part of the job. Looking back there was soooo much satisfaction from raising the first wall and setting of the ridge beam. I'm doing landscaping/yardwork kind of stuff now and I can almost hear my...

Didn't know this section of the forum was here until now, here's a few pix of the garage I finished building in '08. Did the design on Autocad and was built by a friend and myself after work and on the weekends (subbed out the foundation/flatwork and brick). Had fun building it, made mistakes...

Hi all-very cool site, I really wish I found it earlier. I finished building a detached three-car garage back in '08 and am getting a ton of ideas from this place. Looking forward to spending many hours this coming winter going through this site and all the posts.
