Just for kicks I took a usb dongle type wifi adapter and stuck it through a hole in some tinfoil somwhat shaped in a parabola. It dramatically extended the range. Try that or use a large coffee can. You might have a good enough connection for your needs.

My vote would be conduit also. What if some fool comes along and puts a stake or something through it. With conduit just repair the damaged section and pull new wires instead of digging it all up.

Yep a fan works good till you walk out of the Airstream. Another good excuse for a closed insulated shop with A/C:rocker: There are also natural remedies. I just read one recently, I believe it said rub orange on your skin as a repellent.

Drywall is an aesthetic finishing product. Sure you gain a little bit of structural support from it. So if there is a crack it can be repaired by caulk or retaping. In the end the result desired is eliminating the aesthetically displeasing crack. If your really concerned about it, look into the...

Never apologize for large photos that allow the viewer to actually see the intended object. :rocker: How do you find the socket you need? I need a bit of organization in my sockets. But if it works for you then more power to you.

You would notice a huge improvement in the comfort level in the heat and cool season with even a little bit of insulation in the trusses. Insulate above before the side walls.

1" foil styrofoam has an R7 or so. You could also just sister a 2x4 etc to the side of your bottom truss chords to make it narrower.

I think I would make the rear of the stand rectangular\wider rather than tapered, so a rear stand could be used on the top, for changing the rear tire etc.

No offense...but I don't buy the manufacturer knows best. I previously had a big box 60 gal, with a 3/4" only had 10 cfm. Now my newer beefier IR which puts out more, came with only a 1/2". They just buy tanks and what's on there is on there. They probably spec at least 1\2". I have seen at...

I think I ended up buying a socket that fit it, then using a breaker bar and a cheater bar. That was after trying to budge it with an Impact. Took a bit...but I finally got it off. :rocker:

This is a room add on I completed, where they wanted the spray foam on everything. Including the underside with about 6" then covered in Plywood. I believe the cost was around $3200. It's really the only option for a vaulted ceiling like that. It turned out great, and the customer was happy.

My newest compressor came with a reducing bushing of 1/2". I wanted 3/4 like my old one, and to match my new line. So I just removed the old one...was quite a chore to get it out. But took it to a plumbing warehouse and bought a 2" to 3/4" bushing for about $3...problem solved. :thumbup:

I will also agree with almost everyone, weight is fine, length is probably fine. What I would be concerned with is the weight and pounds per square inch on the decking. My lift had like two blocks under the whole length of the posts. So half the weight on each block. Put some steel or extra...

You should also use the longest level possible 78" or 8' is best

Yes I have put many hours of planning and brainstorming into all aspects of my build. I have worked on many projects in many conditions so I have lots of real world application experience to draw from. It's been a lot of work, but in the end it's very worth the effort.

You can finish your ceiling like normal, then just screw the lights up to the ceiling I believe, depending on construction of the lights. You could spray foam the underside of roof sheathing and trusses to get proper R value then mount lights to bottom chords of trusses. You could hang the...

Some are engineered and spec'd for insulation others aren't. Kinda like a 6pt socket vs a 12 pt. Do they both work for the same thing...sure, will one work better than the other...yes. They were designed for different situations, similar but different.

Wish I had a lil brother like that. I'm that lil brother that saves everybody.

A regular countertop from your local home improvement store. There are some awesome laminate options available.

Where's the A/C??? :D
