I am hoping someone can take the picture below and determine the height to width ratio and tell me what the height in ft/inches would be if the width is 8 ft. I have tried using graph paper but need it to...

I am more familiar with Mac, Cornwell and Waterloo, but this is advertised as a 70's Snap On. I've asked seller to look for a model number on the back but have not heard back yet. Have not been able to find pictures of a SO similar to this. Looks more like a Wateloo to me???

I have a sign just north of Tampa and about 20 miles off I-75 that needs a ride up I-75 and over to Athens GA or can meet you on I-75/I85 near Atlanta if you're headed on north. Sign is 3'X7'9" so will easily fit in a pick up bed. Will pay $100, which is a bit more than gas from Tampa to...

found a pretty good deal ($50) on a mint condition All Steel Equipment double door cabinet but there's just one problem, it is locked and they do not have the key for it.:scared: What are my alternatives? I guess I could buy it, take it to a locksmith and let them unlock it but gotta feeling...

The last tool box I painted, an old Mac, I spent no less than a week stripping, cleaning, priming and painting. I have a couple of military surplus file cabinets, two flat file cabinets, an old tanker bookcase, and a wall of old lab cabinets I need to start working on. While I love the way the...

I had bought these to use in my new garage build but decided to use a different type. I paid about double what I am asking plus had to pull the big ones myself. They are four vinyl clad wood, Low-E double pane windows. Perfect for a shop or sunroom. Two are 36.25" X 80" and two are 32.25" X 80...

I need about 3200 sq ft of insulation for the walls and ceiling of the garage I am building. About half of that is for the walls and the other half for the ceiling. My studs are on 2 ft centers and trusses on 4 ft centers. I asked for a quote for both 23" and 47" wide X 3 1/2 " thick unfaced...

How do I tell what type of ballast this has. From what I read here on the forum, I do not want a commercial type ballast due to fm interference. This light is referred to as a "commercial" fixture so does that truly mean commercial including the balast. thanks for any help...

http://atlanta.craigslist.org/sat/mat/4491856503.html In Oglethorpe, GA, there is a 120' x 80' former peanut warehouse ready for you to dismantle and repurpose. Oglethorpe is southwest of Macon. The building was constructed sometime between 1937 and 1948. The roof is in great condition, so...

Buick Sales and Service Garage FINALLY getting time to share my new build with the great folks here on GJ. I retired last March from construction project management with the county public works engineering and have spent most of the last year trying to wittle down the honeydew list and...

Finished a pour of a 40X40 slab for a pole barn two weeks ago. Smooth trowel finish and saw cut joints. My question to the group is how soon reckon should I apply acrylic sealer. I have it "fenced" off with silt screen so dogs or humanoids for that matter can't easily track red clay in on it. I...

What is standard for attaching the 2x12 truss carriers ie beams to the 6x6 poles. Will be using triple 2x6 laminated poles.

My current plans for my new barn build are for a combination of flat ceilings and vaulted ceilings. First 12 ft as you walk into the building flat then turning into vaulted rest of the way. I originally had only planned for flat and was using a 4/12 pitch roof. The most ceiling pitch my truss...

Having not been able to find a dealer anywhere close (200 mile radius of Athens GA) I am considering building my own out of a combination of 3 layers of treated and untreated 2x6's. I have found a local supplier for the .60 treated pine 2x6's. I plan to build a jig to keep them all straight and...

a lot of us are building our own garages and while there are forums for everything that comes after the initial build IE Electrical, Flooring, Heating and AC, there is no forum dedicated to discussions and questions related to footings and framing etc. They generally end up in the General...
