I'm sure this has been discussed ad nauseum here but I need to grab some cabinets for my shop. I run a small hvac business out of the pole barn behind my house. I'm looking for some wall cabinets and maybe a tall floor cabinet. Im looking to store parts like capacitors contactors small parts etc...

Removed this for a customer where I service their commercial refrigeration. Been out of commission for decades. I didn't have the heart to scrap it so this is what I came up with.

I have a 9' hight door with a low clearance track. I installed an 8500 on it a few years ago. Ive been having issues with the cable tension monitor when the door first starts closing so i want to get a set of pusher springs to help things along. I've read that 9" springs should work in the...

I have a store bought pergola in front of my shop that I set up temporarily when I built it to fill the space for a few years. Now I'm ready to build something permanent. The space here is roughly 11 x 11. I want to use the 2 posts that support the overhang to secure the rear board. Then Ill...

I have a 1.5 year old Armorpoxy floor. I'm working out in my shop lately since my gym is closed. I dropped a 45 lb plate from a great height and put 2 chips in my floor. 1 is about 2.5 x 1 inches and the other is about .25 x 1 inch. A little bit of the concrete chipped with it. I have some...

Do I need one? I'm plumbing my air lines this weekend. I'm going to have an outlet near the compressor to use air tools on my work bench and then run a copper line over to the door for a reel. I got a combo regulator and separator. From what I understand the separation needs to be a good...

I just bought a 60 gallon IR compressor for my shop. I'm going to plumb a 1/2 copper air line across to the garage door and put a hose reel there. I'm not going to be using it every day and when I do it will be for typical shop uses (air tools etc) so I know 3/8 is sufficient. Once a year, I...

Who owns one and what brand should I look at? I know Little Wonder seems to be the most popular. I certainly dont think I'd pay new prices for it but they're are plenty available on the second had market. I see that Home Depot sells Toro and Cub Cadet. How do they compare? They are much cheaper.

Anyone have any idea what I should expect to sell this for? Thanks Anthony

I bought the lot next door to me and Im working on laying out an irrigation plan. Im trying to avoid the mistakes I make when I installed the system on my property 10 years ago. When laying out a large rectangular grass area, I realize you should be using different nozzles For different...

I'm looking for a flagpole for my property. I have a place locally that sells them where I can pick it up. It seems a little pricey but I'm sure the quality is good. Just wondering if there are more reasonably priced options for what I'm looking for in a residential flag pole. Here are the...

Can anyone give me any info on this compressor . I can see its a single phase motor but thats it. Guy is asking 400.

I have clearing my driveway yesterday with my 2 stage snow blower. I was working fine until it just stalled abruptly. When I started it back up the auger doesn't turn anymore. I uncovered the belt. Seems a little loose but when I engage it it doesn't spin the auger, it almost seems as if it is...

I hooked my water line for the shop into the house yesterday. Valved off the line inside the house after purging the air and filling the line with water. Had just over 60 psi on my gauge inside the shop. This morning, after about 15 hours my gauge reads 43. Obviously I know water pressure will...

Is there a product available similar to spray foam in a can that will fill a gap but not expand at all? I have a gap on top of this wall, about 3/4 x 7 in between each rib where the j channel meets the ceiling metal. I want to seal this up because my shop will be heated independently from my...

I recently trenched a water line out to my house, probably about 80 feet or so to the house. This is going to be used for a hand washing sink and a hose bib. I ran 1" poly. The point where this pipe enters the house, I only have a 3/4" cpvc line to tie into. I'll also be tying in my irrigation...

I'm on the fence of whether I want to do a regular outdoor frost free hose bib outside of my shop or a indoor hose/reel close to where my sink will be. Any pros/cons other than not having to worry about the hose freezing and the potential to add hot water into the mix? Pics of your setup would...

I built an office inside my pole barn. Walls are going to be corrugated metal inside and out to match the rest of the building. I installed a 9 lite exterior door . The door protrudes a half inch on each side from the framing. I can't use j channel to cover the jamb because then it wouldn't...

I have a bench I built a few years back that I'm using in the center of my new shop. I just painted it and had a piece of 12 gauge steel cut and broken for the top to cover the double layer of 3/4 MDF. I got some pl 3x glue that I'm going to spread out with a square notch trowel to glue it down...
