You said you can not find any numbers. Can you read anything in the tag on the lower right bolt on the cover? The number stamping is usually on the top of the tube, I don't remember if on the right or left. They could be cover in paint. Just remove the paint on top of the tubes centered...

They have a name for people who work with out stands. They are called organ donors. Brwbier

Its been my experience that people love to talk about what they are building. I would ride around and if you see someone putting up something new and if you like what you see, just stop and ask. After a while you will have a list of builders to consider. Brwbier

If you get the roofing question sorted out I like the plan on the right. When you come home and its snowing or raining and pull into the garage there will be room for the passenger side doors to open. Brwbier

That is actually better than a laser level. I used the same type of level during a remodel to make sure all the windows in several rooms were the same. I don't think a laser could do that. And the cost is almost nil.

Has anyone tried a wood floor? I will never weld, so that is not a concern. I'm thinking like an old time wood workers shop with a place to park a car. If its a bad idea just let me know, but dont just say its stupid without a reason, please. Brwbier

Why go to all the expense of an engineer or architect. Just tear the roof off leaving the front and back walls and either stick frame a new roof or buy vaulted trusses or attic trusses to fit your need. Brwbier

My credit card. Without it I would not have the other tools Brwbier

The lathe was very cool, the beer fridge is quite nice (no home brew kegs?). But you got me with the Camaro. Hands down the coolest IMHO. Brwbier

There are many fine used trucks to be found almost anywhere. The trick is to know how to look at them. If they have it warmed up when you get there, walk away. Look under the truck, is it leaking anything? A little is OK, a lot, walk away. Is it too clean under the hood for the mileage...

Even the bolts that require thread lock? Please don't drive behind me.

Radiant tubing in the floor. Its the one thing that is nearly impossible to change latter. Plumbing, electric, doors, windows all are some what easy to change latter, but the floor will always be there. If you never heat the floor it really very little money, but you will some day want to...

Unless you are concerned about the looks, I would just run surface mounted wiring channels. Easy to do, easy to modify in the future if you find the need. Brwbier

I think you know the real answer. Its time for an upgrade. But without knowing you or your situation its hard to tell, maybe smaller truck?

Actually you can have up to 360 degree of turns in a pipe run. To get a pull rope through just use string and a shop vac. Only takes a few seconds to **** through. Brwbier

Just use the loctite, thats what its for.

Their are two kinds of torsion springs. One is called easy set and is adjusted with a drill motor. Not a problem for most anyone. The other uses two bars to wind the spring, not really a difficult project but you have to be very carful and the bars for turning have to be the right size and...

To those with an epoxy floor and who drop stuff. You know, tools, parts or just anything. How easily does the epoxy chip and how do you repair it when it does happen. Old hands just don't grip as well as they should sometimes. Brwbier
