I just went through the same thing a couple months ago with my GSD - A very very hard decision, but you know what you did was selfless and its the right thing to do. When we care more about our dogs health and happiness than our desire to keep them with us, the pain of that decision is made just...

Huh, I didn't know that. I do know that the builder that built this home is no longer in business, and the HVAC in the garage might be just one of many reasons why. This house is built very poorly - only a couple years old and already has some significant ($ to fix) structural and cosmetic...

There's a lot I can't explain about this house. I'll be moving in about a month, and will be very glad to be away from this place (just lousy construction, poor fit n finish etc). I will say that while I was initially pleased to see an HVAC vent in the garage, thinking it would cut down on the...

Brad54 - Calling the FD did occur to me, and you're right, I could have easily been looking at a flash fire and then kicking myself for turning my house into a pile of ashes (or worse, an explosion due to the propane tank). In hindsight, I would have done it just like I did, but thats only...

Tuesday morning at 5:00 I was woken up by my smoke detector in my bedroom. I smelled smoke, and ran down stairs to the garage to find the entire garage filled with smoke. I couldn't see more than 5 inches in front of my face. I hit the button to open the garage door, and sprinted out to the...

You safety wire the head if its going in to a blind hole.

Today was my lucky day - I just picked up 3 10' sections of exhaust tubing, 4" diameter, with connectors and exhaust port door for $30.00!:thumbup: I just did a quick google search - A 4" x 10' section retails between $140 to $190, the doors go for $30 and the connectors are around $40. So, let...

It looks like there's some numbers/data cast into in both of these pictures. The first pic it looks like a date code (by the style of the casting anyway) and the other data in the second one looks like a part number.

Stopped by sears & got a great deal on the black anti-fatigue floor mats. Regularly $36, on sale for $7.47 but rang up at $6.49. I got 4 for less than the original price of one. These are 24" x 36" mats - great deal!

Got mine the other day - actually got one a week ago and got two more (in one package) two days ago. I'm cool w/ having 3 of them (dad and b-n-law will get the extras), but they might wanna fire whoever they have in their shipping department lol.

Why not? The uprights go outside the frame/body of the car on top, so a car underneath would fit. I've seen common shelf beams at 8 and 9 feet long - thats what determines the 'width' of the unit (as in passenger to driver side width, not front to back). I park my camaro under my jeep using...

Pallet racks. I use them to hold up a lighter vehicle than you listed, but the heavy duty pallet racks can be found for up to 2k per shelf. Basically put the front end of the vehicle on one shelf, the rear on another and your good. Or you could use it as the legs of the system you mentioned...

I'm in the Army and exceed my house hold goods weight limit because of my garage. Because of that, I purchased a moving truck to haul some of my heavier items and things I don't want the morons to break. I needed to install E-Track in the wooden floors of the truck. Using a router was proving to...

I'll echo a few comments - washing soap works great as does low amps. I've always used some rebar from Home Depot / Lowes as my sacraficial diodes. I use a larger tub and weld the rods together to form a cage around the outside the tub, includding a few pieces of rebar across the bottom of the...

Hunter, my 9 year old GSD.

Hey guys - can anyone tell me a bit about this Sun engine analyzer? I've sent out an email to the guy, but figured someone on here might have some input. Also, what would you pay for it, assuming it works. I can't tell what model # it is. http://kansascity.craigslist.org/tls/1542331495.html

Similiar to what was posted earlier for snow machines - I built a rack for long term storage of a M151 (light Army jeep). However this is in the back of a moving truck ;) Before the safety guys jump me, it is bolted into the walls and floor and the jeep itself is secured to the rack. I lifted...

I've been in the Army for 13 years now and can say that all the tools I've come in contact with in the motor pools have been just like the ones in your garage. There may be some specialty tools that I haven't come in contact with that have a special / non chrome (or chrome like) finish.

Hey all, found a BICO brand horizontal band saw on craigslist, the guys wants $130.00 for it. Its got a capacity of 4.5 in and he says it works good etc. The picture he sent of the data plate says made in Taiwan - yeah, Im not a fan either, but it was made in 1979. Just wanted to see if anyone...

Car body 'flipper' - here's the plans and pics in action: A mobile paint / body work light, again, plans, don't have pics of the finished stand: And, as with the earlier post about PVC, my piston ring 'setter' to place the rings 1 inch down the hole:
