    Cost to put gutters on a 30x40x12?

    What kind of roof? How much linear feet of gutter is needed? How many downspouts?

    cutting holes in steel diamond plate

    I assume you are talking about something like this? There are a few things to consider. Is the load rating on those high enough for what your trying to tie down? Is the trailer floor the only thing you'd be attaching them to, or would the bolts also attach to some other structural point on...

    I love Delrin . . . .. I Hate Delrin!

    Checked my youtube channel and here is an old clip I found of me turning some delrin. This particular video is on the same lathe as yours... Atlas 12". Notice the chips come off in a coil, maybe I'm doing it wrong (right)!?

    I love Delrin . . . .. I Hate Delrin!

    I've machined a lot of delrin, but never had a mess like that. Looks like your chips are way too small. Have you tried taking larger passes?

    Blue Gum Workshop Build

    Awesome build. Very impressive. I have used LSB's in the past(and loved them), but was under the impression they had gone out of business. Are they still available, or were those beams purchased a while back? Also, I'm surprised the engineer didn't spec. web stiffeners for use inside the...

    How to heat my attic (to 130 F)

    Have you tried putting a thermometer up there? On a sunny day? :dunno: maybe this problem will just work itself out.

    Recessed Trolley & Hoist

    The insulation is r30 in the joists, followed by r11(I get it free) running perpendicular. R13 in the walls. All fiberglass, but I sealed every stud cavity to the exterior sheathing with caulk to keep air infiltration to a minimum. I see fairly hot temps in the summer, but I have some pretty...

    my compressor build and air line install

    i'd be glad to get you some pics of whatever you want to see, but i've started gathering all the pictures of my garage/house addition to start a build thread. so if you can wait a little longer, i'm going to start a relatively in-depth thread in the garage gallery section very soon. i will...

    my compressor build and air line install

    IT RUNS! I pulled the oil pump assembly out of the 210 to see if i could find a problem, and after looking it over, it seemed like it should have been working. the only possible issue i could see, was that it seemed dry enough that it possibly couldn't pull a prime. not so dry that it had...

    my compressor build and air line install

    well, there's some good news and some bad news. it does run, but there are a few issues. when i fired it up, it seemed awfully noisy. it started building pressure fairly quickly, but the oil pressure gauge stayed at 0. my understanding of the unloaders on the head of the 210 pump lead me to...

    my compressor build and air line install

    one of my hobbies include offroad racing, and i do shock tuning from time to time. as such, i have a nitrogen tank capable of delivering 600 psi of air after the regulator. i used that to backfill through the quick connect fitting shown in the picture. i realize i did introduce SOME air into...

    my compressor build and air line install

    thanks. here's a shot of the loft, as it sits right now. i'm going to clutter it up with a good bit of equipment from the garage below while i sheetrock and finish the garage, and then i can go back and organize it. i'll probably start a garage build thread in the coming months, as i feel i'm...

    my compressor build and air line install

    i was talking to an electrician buddy of mine the other day about this project, and he mentioned he had a spare 2-stage pump on the shelf for his compressor. he wasn't necessarily looking to sell it, but would sell it to me if i was interested. he isn't 100% sure of the history of it, but...

    my compressor build and air line install

    i'll let you know soon enough. got it wired up and spun the motor up for the first time last night. didn't finish plumbing the compressor or put oil in it yet, so i ran it without the belt to test all the electric, and everything fired up no problem. should have some time to plumb the rest of...

    my compressor build and air line install

    thanks, it is rustoleum ford blue (although i'm not a ford guy) the tensioner was acquired, not built. i don't know its exact history, but if i had to guess, i'd say its an older Overly Hautz base. I say older because most of their bases they sell now that look like mine are "automatic" and...
