Was wiping down the air compressor the other day with a rag and some brake cleaner and of course wiped the face of the gauge which clouded the plastic immediately. At this point I'd like to just replace the gauge with a little bit bigger and and easier to read one, maybe liquid filled. Anyone...

Hey guys, getting ready to purchase a new scanner setup. I'm leaning heavily towards the Autel MaxiSys Elite as Amazon has it now for 2500 with the J2534 programming box and 2 years free updates. I like the fact is has a pass through interface and wireless communication and runs on open source...

Just curious if there's any way to get around the commercial zoning aspect of it. Talking about a very small operation. Thanks guys!

Just curious to see what you guys have. Last year I re-did my living room and ended up with a Vizio 60" 4K display along with a Vizio 5.1 sound bar setup. Both items have Google Cast built into them along with an app to control them. The display was wall mounted with a Sanus full motion wall...

Just curious to see what you guys pay. For the first 1,000 kWh here it's .087 per. For anything above that it's .052. From what I can tell that's very cheap electricity. I'm debating just leaving the heater on 24/7 and keeping the garage at 40 degrees when I'm not in there and raising it to...

So, I'm looking to get a vise and a stand. I won't use it much, but I do know that it will come in very handy. I'm thinking of just picking up a vice from HF and getting a stand off Amazon. Not looking for anything fancy, just something that will work decently. Originally I was thinking of...

So, I just finished re-framing my garage and installing a new door. The old setup was very uneven on the wall and poorly installed, not to mention it was a wood door. I double studded the frame of the door and did a 2x6 header. It's MUCH more secure now. I installed a Menards 9x7 R6 insulated...

So, currently I've got a really crappy garage door setup. It's a 9x7 door but is made of wood panels kind of chopped and mashed together. It's the old style that uses the expanding springs and cables for the door. Currently it's setup for manual opening. It's got a lot of small gaps and holes in...

Has anyone figure out a way to do this? I'm guessing it may not work well since a lot of people say the digital thermostats have any issue with extreme cold. Also, as far as I can tell I'd need to be able to do a 240v thermostat instead of the usual low voltage setup.

Hey guys, I've been looking into tire/wheel storage for the garage. Was thinking it would be cool to do a wall-mounted setup as I've got a large portion of my wall in the corner that is un-used. I generally have winter and summer setups for each vehicle and it would be nice to keep them off the...

Figured I'd just start another thread regarding insulation in my garage. It's approximately 15x27x8. Currently just has OSB walls with no insulation and open rafters. We replaced the roof sheathing and shingled the roof about 6 years ago. I use the overhead space to store stuff. It's been nice...

Hello all! New to the forum. Long time lurker. I use my garage to do automotive work. No plans to do any woodworking, paint work, or metal fab as the space isn't big enough for that, nor do I have the interest. I don't do any tubing or exhaust work (minus complete exhaust component replacement...

Hello! I'm looking for opinions on heating my garage. It's a one car un-attached garage, but is about 14x28x8. Trusses are open as I use the space above it for storage. The walls are OSB but un-insulated. Garage door is un-insulated as well. Roof is pretty new and holds heat pretty well. Floor...
