Before you decide how to insulate your slab you need to know a little more about thermodynamics (heat flow). First of all cold does not move. Cold is defined as the lack of heat. What you are trying to do is keep the heat produced by your radiant system and the earth confined and not lost to the...

Here's a local business doing similar to what you are proposing http://www.starherald.com/community/garage-condos-new-to-local-specialty-housing-scene/article_ba5e5eb6-394a-595e-a5ca-3d395253b93c.html A couple of comments on these: I have no knowledge of how successful they have been. The...

due to the relatively low ceiling, I would mount it at 45 degrees on one of the ceiling corners. This should give you the best overall coverage of the entire space. Cheers Steve

Absolutely the BEST tube sealer that I have ever used!!!! These things are fantastic! Have never had to throw away a tube of caulk since I started using these. http://www.menards.com/main/p-2278724-c-7931.htm

And I always thought that it was the third helping of turkey and dressing!!!!

This statement leads me to believe that wind driven rain may have something to do with your leaking. The bottom of your tin installation looks fine to me. I don't see how water could possibly get inside with the sheeting being lapped over the Z channel. What I believe may be happening is that...

Yeah, the station attendants just loved that!! We used to ride our bikes over them. Ah the memories!!! Cheers Steve

If your frost line is 30" and the pipe is only buried 20", I would be concerned about the pipe freezing underground!

Instead of this valve, use a stop and waste valve, it will automatically drain down the piping from it to your garage. You can bury it and use a length of PVC pipe for a shut off rod to turn the valve on and off. Cheers Steve

Bendpak packages their 4 post lift for shipment in a special way. Think of a package approx. 2' x 2' x the length of the runways. It is designed to be lifted by a forklift from the end. This allows for easy loading and unloading into van body trucks. They are not designed to be lifted from the...

Hi Mopar guy, Bowtie guy from Morrill. It's nice to see someone from Western Nebraska on the forum. Trying to figure out where your build is from the picts. Give me a hint! Steve

When displaying the flag, please observe proper flag etiquette http://www.usflag.org/flagetiquette.html Cheers Steve

My local HD also offers this service if you order the material. I'm not pushing Home Depot, just giving the OP some options. Cheers Steve

Personally, I would attempt to disassemble the top. Remove the screws if possible using the correct tool. If you cannot remove them, drill them out. Remove the aluminum angles, drill out the wood plugs and remove the tie rods. Possibly the top will then just come apart (if glue was not used). If...

Here's where I store mine now. Previously I stored flammables (reducers, paint, thinners, paint, etc.) in a wooden cabinet and then this happened The state fire marshal concluded that some type of spontaneous combustion occurred when something leaked and created the "perfect" mixture for...

Don't forget that it must be removed the day of the sale, according to a note on the auction site. That will require another person and equipment to disassemble and load the lift. Not a small deal!! Don't count on someone there to help you.

Amazing picture! An American street rod in the French countryside. How cool!!!! Cheers Steve

My first MIG welder was a Century. It was a 220V machine but used the smaller 20 amp plug. It came with a Teflon-lined tube and special wire feed rollers for welding aluminum. I never tried it but this may be something you can look into. Cheers Steve

In Bendpak's defense, they do package it sufficiently, BUT, it must be lifted from the END of the package NOT the side. This is done so that it can be loaded into van bodies. It says clearly that it must be lifted this way but how many forklift jockeys actually read anything! Cheers Steve
