    My new garage project

    I also consider the time spent doing it myself as being money saved for more features, tools or toys...or beer! Took me a year to build mine, next up is the house which will probably push the 2 year envelope. Guess we're all gluttons for punishment, or something!

    Metal Fence Advise

    Yeah, deer love roses, especially buds. My neighbours tore all theirs out after years of never seeing a flower on them. I'm surprised the Plantskydd shows pictures of a marigold - the deer don't seem to care for those around my area! Good luck with your fencing...I think you're right about 6'...

    Temorary walls

    I've been considering my options for something of that nature as well, but haven't got as far as a decision yet. I was thinking if I was going to fab my own, I'd use some clear poly instead of tarps for maximum light flow.

    Ground has finally broken on my Garage build!!

    The price difference is interesting. I wonder if it has something to do with the binding method. I won't be home for another week, so I can't do a chapter by chapter comparison or anything for a while, if you're interested. I would be very surprised if they dropped anything from the 19th...

    Ground has finally broken on my Garage build!!

    There was only one anniversary edition, which marked the 30th anniversary but was the 18th edition. The rest were just updated editions, with each one adding some new information and correcting whatever mistakes were leftover from previous versions. When was your edition published, or does it...

    That's a great looking SC...getting it into that calendar must have been a real rush! I like your comment about Muir...if you've seen the 30th Anniversary edition of the Idiot Book, I'm one of the people interviewed in the introduction.

    Interior Garage Wall Materials?

    A good height in general is around 50". That will let you lean 4' x 8' sheets of materiel against the walls without obstructing the outlets.

    Moes Garage

    I'm just going to chime in a word of thanks for your site...I've spent a lot of time looking at your albums, and definitely enjoy seeing the time capsules of the past...and drooled over much of that iron which was once so widely available and now eludes me like the proverbial pot of gold...

    Yeah...the garden department which is either full of clearance items in the off-season or Christmas deals waiting to **** you in... These stores are just evil. I love them.
