    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Swapped a new wood blade for the worn out metal blade on my Craftsman bandsaw. Cut some wood for my new mailbox install. Opened a paint can to find it had petrified in the past few decades. It's too cold to paint right now anyway so I may wait on that until the weather improves.

    Lifted shingles - suggestions?

    Hardwired smokes/heat detectors. I was looking at them, the CCTV, speaker and antenna wiring. I need to secure them better before re-roofing commences.

    Lifted shingles - suggestions?

    UPDATE: Roof is 26 years old. The shingles are 265 lb/ square, 30 year warranty. A couple things I got wrong: -Construction is rafter/ridge -Plywood does not look ok from the attic. On my earlier inspections I was looking at the face of the sheeting rather than where they butted up on the...
