Your explanation is rather confusing. [Metal Shop] Camerax2 -> switch -> router -> ///House\\\ switch -> router -> modem. Is this the setup? If he has 2 routers, that is probably the problem. Can he bypass the router in the garage? The 2 routers both have dhcp servers and I think this...

This is a very valid question. At least in my area, commercial and residential customers are typically on different transformers. Usually each commercial customer has their own transformer(s) while residential customers are grouped together on a transformer. In the summer time, you certainly...

I’m getting ready to redo my garage. One of the most over-due items is an alarm. I’m using Ring. Simplisafe, Nest, and many others are available at very reasonable prices. The options are endless if you add cameras. Great & easy way to add peace of mind.

Found a 2 foot, 3/8” drive MAC extension in my engine bay. 1st car I ever owned. The mechanic was trying to fix an earlier mishap that caused my oil light to come on. Still have that tool almost 20 years later. That tool is the reason I learned to work on cars. Man I was angry.

No, not remove the panel to inspect. That is not my assessment. They will want to at least inspect the panel. This will be done to check to see if there is any damage. What is also very plausible is they will want to replace the entire panel. If the bus bar sustained damage or...

That is what Siemens refers to as a single-phase, residential load center. Who ever you hire is going to take a picture of that panel and go to the supply house. That pic lists all the parts that are serviceable for the panel. A decent supply house should have it in stock. Whoever you hire...

. :lol_hitti If you weren’t planning on doing it, I would think the licensed electrician would know the torque value and bring his/her own tools:headscrat So going back to topic, the licensed electrician will replace the entrance lugs for the panel and the main breaker at a minimum. The...

Good save:thumbup:

A person that works electrical jobs is not an electrician. If you (or the sub-contractor) is not licensed, you are not an electrician. Under no circumstances should you remove your own meter. Out here (NJ), the local utility owns the meter. The meters are placed and removed using 600 volt...

Do you have the room for something like this? This makes it a one person job. Use slings to go around the tv. https://www.harborfreight.com/gambrel-and-pulley-hoist-99758.html

How close are you to the ceiling? I would bolt a single pulley with lags to structure above with 1” rope, a few slings and 2 people on the rope. Step on the rope to act as a brake. If you are close to ceiling then this won’t work. **Edit** if you want to lower it by yourself, a single pulley...

PVC conduit & run it under the sprinkler if at all possible. If you are planning to go 18” in pvc, I would think the sprinkler would be in the 6”-12” area.

Use conduit if you decide to go underground. I personally think it should be a requirement

Wow, killer garage. I see a fox-body cobra, maybe a terminator, and who knows what else. Awesome garage. That floor is insane- great garage. Maybe one day I can get a teal cobra to park next to the Lightning.

:lol: Wait, what?:lol: Not even in the league. I did front ball joints on 2 cars befor lunch. I am no mechanic- the BJP-1 is one of those tools that when you need it you need it. Right up there with my induction heater. Next time I do springs, I am buying the Branix spring compressor. I...

:eek:

Amazing tool but when did they start making them translucent:beer: I guess I will give mine again and buy this. I gave away my last one to get the newer one with the lid:thumbup: The Swanson (aluminum & magnetic) led-torpedo, bubble level is amazing. I did one of the adjustable closets in a...

The Milwaulkee M18 trimmer is awesome. Awesome. It is by far my favorite tool- indoor or outdoor. It is so good I gave away my 2-cycle Craftsman pro trimmer. My biggest gripe was the hard starting and the leaking when I flip the trimmer to edge. The bad is the new-style, M18 blower leaves...

:thumbup:Always looking to learn. Love this site.

That is funny. Ok- that story beats mine:lol_hitti I like the plastic-box idea. My brother is starting to become more handy due to a new job. I will try the borrowed tool bin with him. :rocker: I bought all my tools. No hand-me-downs and I don’t get any from work. I wanna make it as...
