    Looking for ideas for interior wall framing.

    I'll be running my wiring on the girts, too. It's all gonna be 12-2 MC as I scored a 1000' spool of it for less than half price on CL. So, no conduit necessary. For the screwing, I have a couple of DeWalt DW268s. I have DeWalt and Ridgid 18V 1/4" impacts drivers if I wanna go cordless. I'm...

    Anchor Bolt Template void in new slab

    Unless that area is far from level, you can just set the column on it. You'll pull everything square and plumb with ropes/choker straps/come-alongs/ratchet straps after you have the girts and purlins bolted up and finger-tightened. Once all the iron is plumbed and squared, you hold it in place...

    Looking for ideas for interior wall framing.

    I'm pretty much at that stage with my 30x40. Mine is a Mueller building and the girts run behind the columns (I think they call it pass-through girts?) on the 40' walls. The girts on the 30' walls deadhead into the columns. My plans for walls are to stand 4x8 sheets of OSB all around the...

    Gaps under garage door flashing

    I'd say it's just the installers cutting them a hair too short. I've never used the metal weather seals. What we had was vinyl with an embossed woodgrain that looked like 1/4" thick by 2" wide wooden trim. It had a vinyl flap formed inside of it that sealed up against the door. I always cut...

    Operation: Minitruck/Cafe Garage

    Get shorter bolts? You have a much quicker solution hanging, third tool from the left. Judging by the air hose to the right, I'd assume compressed air is near. Problem solved in less than 30 seconds. Oh, and to contribute to the thread, here's my bottomless money pit:

    Question about garage door springs

    Definitely a Wayne Dalton door with their Torquemaster spring system. Doors have to have some sort of counterbalance, so manufacturers aren't going to "get rid of springs". The Torquemaster has a spring(s) inside the tube that is wound by the gear assembly on the end(s). It's intended for...

    Legacy Industrial floor colors- who has "Blue"?

    I was thinking that it would make it seem smaller, but was in hopes that the light gray walls, white ceiling, and bright lighting would counteract that. I want it to feel as big as possible since it's only 1,200 sq. ft (1,108 "net"). But, I also really like the "deep water" blue. I'm still...

    Legacy Industrial floor colors- who has "Blue"?

    Oooooooh. I probably would have figured that out if I had read the text and not just looked at the pics. But, my mind tends to shut down late at night.

    Liftmaster LA400 problem

    There's nothing else it could be. Let me know if it works or not without the receiver board. I'm just curious.

    Garage wired for 220V, kind of... need a lot of help here!

    If nothing else is fed off of that panel, I'd do like theoldwizard1 mentioned and replace the panel with a single 240V receptacle. That, and make sure the other end (hopefully in the main panel) is connected to an appropriate double pole or ganged breakers, and ensure that the wire is large...

    Legacy Industrial floor colors- who has "Blue"?

    Ah, a fellow smart ***, I see.:D I pride myself on being a proficient Googler, and I definitely tried plenty of keywords. Just like your LMGTFY link, I saw many random blue floors. I'm looking specifically for Legacy Industrial shades of blue. Overwhelming? I definitely want and will have...

    Liftmaster LA400 problem

    That makes more sense now. But, it still doesn't narrow the problem down to the receiver or main board. Try it with the receiver board off. If it works as normal with the SBC, then you can either find/purchase/acquire a new receiver board or wire a Liftmaster 412HM receiver (under $40) to it...

    Garage wired for 220V, kind of... need a lot of help here!

    Those are two hot wires with power coming IN to the panel? If that's the case, they should go to the two terminals on either side of that white sticker in the middle. Apparently, those are the feed wires coming from the main panel. I don't know about your area, but I really don't think that's...

    Legacy Industrial floor colors- who has "Blue"?

    My wife is having a hard time picturing my shop floor being "Blue", saying it will be too bright, and is suggesting I go with another color such as "Light Blue". She's probably thinking it'll be as blue as my new mower. I actually would love a floor that color! I know that she can't picture...

    Liftmaster LA400 problem

    The auto close timer is the knob all the way to the right. Turning this knob all the way to the left until a slight click is heard/felt turns it off. Anywhere to the right after this click turns the timer on and increases the time delay the further you turn it to the right. You said it opened...

    Spray foam insulation- who's intimately familiar with it?

    You don't know what you're missing. It's like warm urethane pie. I'm about 100% convinced that there are no longer contractors of any kind in this state that aren't.
