I have a 1953(ish) Packard electric motor that is the same way. Needs a little nudge to get going. Mine is on a drill press, to my surprise the motor will run in either direction depending on which way I spin the chuck. I opened it up and the wiring insulation more or less turned to dust...

Only 1050 lumen per fixture. Ceiling is 9'-1/2" 110° beam. I decided to order 4 more High bay that I will put on 9' tripods and use them as auxiliary work lights. Cans lights look fancy, but aren't practical.

I have that 150w with diffuser light that I use as an additional overhead work light in one garage bay. I mounted this Hyperlite on a trolley that runs in a strut/track along the garage door opener track. This allows me to slide it overhead where I need it. It's 9'-1/2" from the floor. I have...

They are full price at the Greensburg Pa Lowes. A quick look online they are around $62.00. I'd buy them!

They are all full price in the Pittsburgh PA market.

I was told by our Tri-State Door distributor the best thing is an oil can and motor oil. I bought a quart of some synthetic motor oil. I have 5 doors and still haven't went through the quart and it has been years! I spray every spring and winter when the time changes. Makes it easy to remember...

I would go 40 foot deep. My 30 x 60 is two narrow to fit two vehicles end to end on the 30' side. My garage doors are on the 60' side, one 16×9 and two 9x9's. Pictures from 2015 above. Looks much different inside now but the bones are the same.

I've been using an old upright. I vacuum steel shaving, wood shaving, plaster dust anything that's not wet. Just switch bags once it's full. This vacuum was retired from house duty, and has been sweep my shops concrete floor for at least 10 years. Granted I broom the big stuff so it doesn't get...

What your describing is exactly what miss aligned sensors do. I'd double check them, make sure you have a solid green light on both.

That corrugated roofing will do a nice job reflecting light. I hate trying to work in a dark garage.. The older you get, the dimmer everything looks.

I would go to Sherwin Williams and ask. I wouldn't trust a big box associate.

Welcome from Western Pa.

"The installer" Is this a new installation? If so it is common to have the torsion spring settle and lose some tension. You can also check your belt tension and if its out of spec adjust the nut on the idler to tighten/loosen. When you unlock the trolley assembly and raise and close the door...

I will guarantee you the drum is moving. If it wasn't moving your door would be wedged in the track sideways (until the open force threshold on the opener stops it) and the cable would be loose and hanging. That's a mess to deal with. Marking the drums and torsion rod will only make you go up...

I've used 1/2 simson strong tie "Titan" concrete anchors. i've seen sleeve anchors and lag shields used.

Do at your own risk but I've had the same situation. The problem isn't with the springs. You said you tightened them evenly so thats good. The cables are in the proper groove in the drums. Most likely the cable drum has slipped on the torsion rod allowing that side of the garage door to hang...

Thank you I snagged one¡

Put a little shine on my Craftsman 100 series drill press. Was disassembled waiting for replacement rubber parts to be delivered today. I'd like to restore the drill press someday.

I have a WPPO Ash Vacuum (cordered). I bought the vacuum for my smoker and my fireplace. Don't waste your time or money. First use in the fire place AFTER I shoveled it, filter clogged within a minute. Took it outside cleaned the filter and finished the fireplace. They absolutely do not create...

This is how we backfill and grade were I live. I'm sure it's done differently elsewhere.
