Anybody have an extra charger taking up space in a box? Got a great gift but while it did come with a battery, it didn't include a charger, and trying not to blow ALL my money. As long as it's in working order and Milwaukee not a knockoff, I'm interested! EDIT: No longer needed! Thanks!

The incredibly lazy (or cheap!) builder of the house I just moved into apparently decided that 3 single bulb sockets were enough to light an ~900sqft, 13' ceiling garage. Clearly this is VERY deficient, and I do plan on adding a number of light fixtures at some point in the future, but other...

Doh, been looking at so many 2 posts my mind went right there. For a scissor lift a plate will definitely help distribute the load, bit if your slab already cracked from the load it might be too late. At this point, if the slab is undermined, you're relying only on the rebar in bending at the...

The incorrectly sized slab might be a blessing in disguise - workmanship can be a hard thing to prove, but a slab poured completely the wrong size vs contract or drawings is VERY easy to prove. Assuming it was the concrete guys who made the form in the first place, of course. If not, it's one...

The only right option here is to repour the floor around the mounts as per the user manual. The steel plate isn't going to help a ton with the tension loads unless you weld the plate to your lift (and ideally spread more anchors around the plate too), which are what's going to end up putting a...

I've definitely thought about it, but the lift is coming out of the same fund as my weekend car would... Not sure I want to throw a few more G's at that! Here's the house I've been in for 8 years if it makes you feel better. There is about 6" of space in front of the car to the wall. (1" to...

11 year old house built on the foundation of a much older (1960s?) house. The garage is definitely new foundation (essentially an addition). I'll pull the build plans if possible. MA requires 6" slab for garage so for any of the smaller lifts I'm considering I believe I'll be in good shape, but...

Scissor lift is definitely a possibility too. Was worried it would make any work that required dropping the subframe super tricky though. And convincing the wife I need to cut the floor out of our garage for an in floor scissor (which I'd probably need given my ground clearance) is... Less than...

hrm, imgur not playing nice today. Trying a different host... bonus pic of the second and third bay (filled with old-owners stuff during the open house)

Moving houses in a week and finally have a garage that's worth doing something to! 3 car and extra deep, woot! Of course, spent enough on the house that now I can't get that third car for a while... (Inside photo is full of precious owner's stuff)

Edit: fixed broken image (hopefully!)

Buying a new house and it's got a damn nice garage (WAY better than my current cave that BARELY fits my Golf R). 3 bays, high ceiling, even has a high lift door for the final bay. I was looking into installing a 2 post lift (for wheel swaps, suspension work, brake swaps, etc.), and through some...

High CRI LED bulbs are key. Ideally dimmable and not all on one switch, as you won't always want ALL of the light. Take a look at some of the pro detailers online (AmmoNYC, Chicago Auto Pros, WhiteDetails, etc.) and review their setups. In general, you need to figure out if you're washing in...
