I was meeting my wife and kids at our house. We were going to all hop in our van and go someplace. We both arrived about the same time so I let my wife drive in first. Half way down our driveway it widens to twice it's width. I usually back in and my usual parking spot is right next to the curve...

I used to work for a very small HVAC company with only three trucks. Every morning when I left the shop I had to check my truck. One of the other guys had a sign business on the side and would, every once and a while, slap a vinyl rainbow sticker on the back of my truck. He couldn't get me at...

Man, there are some great ones here! There's a very annoying know-it-all guy at work here that just won't shut up. He's the kind of guy that if anyone makes a mistake, he'll throw it in your face for months, but can't take ANY critisism. The best part is he's extremely dense. He was giving me...

Sorry I didn't do a search first and there's already a thread like this. Admins please move or remove this.

I grew up and worked with my dad in his business. He had T.V. cameras that went through pipelines to check for cracks and leaks. He was one of the first people in the country doing this, so there wasn't a lot of equipment he could buy. We had to make most of it ourselves. We also did all of our...

Really...... this is what makes you take your ball and go home? People in the industry with experience giving their opinions gives you a hissy fit because it's not the same as yours? I didn't read anyone saying it had to be done their way, but I did read people saying that's how THEY would do...

I'm a journeyman steamfitter, and I would think twice about welding on an old tank. You just never know how much corrosion is behind where you're going to weld. True, the people who welded the brace to the tank may not be certified or even good welders, but they welded on new metal. I would much...

I'm suprised you don't have to use the epoxy anchors. Looks like a nice set up though.

Thanks guys

What epoxy floor product is (or was,I can't find it on there website ) sold at Menards?

I used the white coated masonite on all of the walls. It will be on the ceiling also, but it's not there yet. It worked great and it cleans up easily. I have a welding area in one corner of my shop. I put stainless sheet on the wall 8 feet each way from the corner and cauked the gaps with silver...

What's the best way to get rid of spiders? I don't mind the actual spiders, it's the webs that drive me nuts. The problem is mostly in my art studio, but it's also a smaller problem in the shop.

Hey everyone, I came over from the HAMB. I've built a bunch of my own workbenches, shelving and tool boxes for my garages. I'll post some picks when the weather gets nicer and I get off my *** and organize all my ****. Those of you on the HAMB know that I'm an artist and an absolute vehicle...

He did it exactly the right way by having all the drops come off the top of the main. If you can't do that, at least have a dirt leg on every drop. Black pipe is also the best to use. You should have a trouble free air system when you're done. The worst thing you could use is PVC. I know I'll...
