    Project Garage Condo

    I think he's saying "go get what you asked and paid for" not "you got what you asked and paid for".

    Miracle Truss - Closed their doors

    I know a few different people who have been happy with Web Steel out of Sandy, OR. One has a 40x80x14, one has a 30x40x12 and one has a 60x40x10 with two shed roofs off the sides. They are all very happy with their buildings. I'm working on finishing the inside of my 42x60x14 Miracle Truss...

    My “Class Act” Trailer's Structural Integrity Failure

    This kind of information, real facts backed up with pictures and documentation are why online forums are so great. It gives everyone who reads this thread some concrete information to base their next purchasing decision on. Thanks for the info! I'm anxious to see if they do anything to back...

    Liftmaster 3800 wall switch - will a doorbell switch work?

    Thanks. If the fancy wall switch keeps getting reset by shorting across it (the other switch) I'll probably just get rid of it and add a second doorbell switch. I don't think I need my garage door opener to tell me the time and temperature anyhow...

    Liftmaster 3800 wall switch - will a doorbell switch work?

    I am in the middle of installing a liftmaster 3800 in my new shop. I purchased it from Ebay (next two will come from the board member dealer...). It came with the wall switch that can control the light, lock the door etc. Can I add a doorbell type switch in parallel with this one mounted...

    Power Question

    My power to my shop is 200 amp service, in 4/0,4/0,2/0 aluminum underground feeder that runs 200 feet from the meter to my service entrance. My house is the same but runs about 250 feet. No problems so far and the house has been here for 20 years.

    Plumbing Vent through roof - what's the best way?

    I don't have any other roof penetrations (wood stove chimney eventually) and no shingles. My roof is made up of 3' wide by 22' long metal sheets. There's no way to get under any uphill joint. The outside of the building is like a pole building, I just don't have any wood in the ground.

    Plumbing Vent through roof - what's the best way?

    The rest of my vent pipes are ABS, so I plan to continue that. I'll probably bring it down about 3' from the ridge and extend it up about 2'. I'm using an Oatey rubber roof jack that has metal inserted around the rim. I'll use silicone and screws to attach it to the roof Any suggestions on...

    Plumbing Vent through roof - what's the best way?

    I'm finishing up the rough plumbing in my new shop. It's a 42x60x14 miracle truss building. My bathroom is about 6x8 with the wet wall centered on and perpendiclar to one end of the building. Eventually, I will build a loft all the way across this end of the building, but to prevent paying an...

    Toad's Garage and Shop

    It looks hydraulic to me. The porta-power style pump at the other end of the hose is behind the hand operated arbor press.

    hello everyone. building my dream garage and have a few pics to share.

    It's about time you showed up here. I read about your garage on performance trucks.net. I've been following your projects (truck, fairmont, dragweek etc...) since someone posted a link to 1320video on the megasquirt forums. Are you still racing your truck? Have you already been working out...

    "Coyote Flats"

    I changed my profile to say 'near Seattle' now. For anybody outside this region, that makes more sense. I actually live in Bear Creek but that doesn't mean much to people more than a few miles away either. I'm from Idaho and badly want to go back. I probably talk about it too much. I...

    "Coyote Flats"

    How did you weather the floods? I had plenty of problems down here in Belfair, but the pad for my new shop (42x60 miracle truss) stayed high and dry.
