    The Everything 3D Printer Thread

    Here's a totally noob question. Tell me to pound sand if it's too simplistic, or we need to create a separate discussion so as not to derail this thread. I know almost nothing about 3D printing. I have about 30 digital pictures taken a few years ago, a few with dimensions of an item that I...

    Building my own Toolbox

    I suggest looking at Lista Cabinets. They are customizable and can be made in various (including I believe custom) colors. High capacity, high quality. The only downside is that they are expensive, although less expensive than Snap on and they are, I think, a better box.

    tecrostar mezzanines

    Timely post. I'm looking at this as well right now. Not interested in wood, because of the look and I want the clear span. Sent them a quote request a day or two ago. Please do, I'd love to see your install.

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT The Garage at The Place in The Valley (Garage Condo 45x23x20)

    That would be great. I've sent Tecrostar a request for a quote. Also getting a quote from a "traditional" mezzanine outfit from Canada (meaning I beams for the beams at least and maybe the joists, and posts as opposed to the Tecrostar guys that use C channel design for the joists and beams and...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT The Garage at The Place in The Valley (Garage Condo 45x23x20)

    Re: General Update Do you know what brand that mezzanine is? If it is a Tecrostar (made in Spain), I was wondering if you saw it and if it seemed like a well built item(?) or know anything about cost, etc. I am looking at this very system for my place.

    QuickJack Hot Deal

    Some Costco stores still have them (barely). I just picked one up today at the Huntington Beach (California) Costco for $700. They had 5 left. I asked specifically at my local Costco and a friendly attendant gave me the entire stock in their SoCal (and Hawaii?!) stores. At the HB Costco, they...

    BendPak XPR-10AXLS opinions

    Just FYI, I've called Benpak twice in the last couple of weeks to ask about a lift I'm looking at. First time the guy I spoke with had no clue about the lift. Said he'd talk to the engineers and get back to me. Of course he didn't. Called a second time, got a lady who was a bit more...

    New Garage/ Shop/ Man Cave

    Thank you. Wall height seems higher than that. I suppose it's the cathedral ceiling. Nice job.

    Skoda garage from Czech Republic

    Just ran into this thread. You don't Skoda cars raced much, great choice. Love your garage. These wheels are killer, my favorites from the options you show. Great rack. What brand is it?

    Any Issue Buying This House?

    I'd first find out how long the manufacturer states that their OSB can be exposed to elements. If the OSB on the house falls within that guideline, I'd ask the builder to re-wrap the house and as they take the old one off, inspect the OSB and repair/replace any damage.

    Lutron Maestro MACL-153M Indicator Lights Blinking

    I have found that Lutron has excellent customer service. I have Lutron switches throughout the house and had one that seemingly was not working and they spent about 45 minutes trying to diagnose it. Still would not work, to they concluded that the switch was bad, and they sent me a replacement...

    Cramming cars into 22x19x15...

    You might consider putting in a four post, which allows for storage and lets you work on your cars (with some compromise about accessibility), plus a (re)moveable two post lift such as a MaxJax or a UNIVERSALIFT, or a less easy to move low rise lift, a mid rise lift or a scissor lift. The...

    Problems Installing Bendpak Double Wide Parking lIft

    I've been very interested in this lift since it was first talked about on GJ a while back. Unfortunately I'd have to raise the ceiling of my garage and it's not clear that that is a possibility or that I'd gain enough height to be able to use the lift. Glad to see the issues were sorted with...

    Server Closet in a Condo - How would you build it?

    Great job. A minor suggestion is to use QuietRock instead of regular drywall. You could go further and use some of their other products (quiet seal, quiet putty) to further isolate noise. Not sure that the hum your girlfriend hears would have been avoided with additional insulation as that...
