So I just went to an estate sale and made an impulse purchase of a Sears 200 AMP 40/2 Battery Charger 200 Amp Battery Starter. It's pretty clean but the picture looks better than in person. Model number is 141-255-001, Made in USA 1994. I can't find any info on it on-line and I need to learn how...

My pole barn is about 180' from house and although it has a 100 amp subpanel that gets power from a breaker in main house panel, the power-line network option did not work for me - no connection established at all. So I'm gonna run a 1 inch conduit with RG6 and Cat6 (future proof). At the main...

I’ll be covering my pole barn walls in 7/16 or 1/2” OSB. Is their a cost effective covering to put on the OSB? I’m thinking like a Formica type look but less expensive.

So I sealed my smooth concrete floor with GS 8505 - applied densifier first, 2 years ago - the concrete was about 6 months old at time of application. I now have a trans fluid stain about 2 months old on the concrete. I tried getting it up with Chomp Pull it Out oil stain remover and it won’t...

I have a 30x40x12 pole barn with scissor trusses 2/12 pitch ceiling. The concrete floor is 6” 4K psi with rebar. I’d like to build an 8x20’ loft along the gable (30’ wall). My thought was to install a ledger board on wall and attach 8’ joists to it, but not attach it to the side/eaves wall...

The install of a 100 amp sub-panel is underway in my pole barn (30x40x12) with 2/12 scissor trusses. My plan is to use girts on the inside placed over the 6x6s to support the walls (7/16 OSB). The ceiling will be metal. I will eventually install a 2 post lift. Wall insulation will be done by...

I am installing a direct vent LP fireplace in an outside wall. What type of insulation do I use on the walls?

I am currently in the middle of having an addition built at my house which extends the kitchen and family room. I need to extend my kitchen sink and DW supply and drain lines about 7 feet. I also need to run a new LP line for a stove top and fireplace for about 40’ of pipe. Is there anyone...

I have a couple of birds nest in the lean to soffit/12' overhang area. This area is open to the inside roof of the pole barn. I just noticed a few days ago there is a void that will need covering and I'm looking for ideas on how others have mitigated this issue.

I am in the beginning stages of an addition to my house and want to buy a direct vent gas/propane fireplace. I want a traditional look on a perimeter wall. Any recommendations on brand. What to stay away from?
