Agreed- but I'd go for Etsy...

I just did this to my home a couple weeks ago. It works very well, but can be messy.

Thanks guys :)

Great job!

Awesome- thanks! I'll be watching.

I've been watching Craigslist and eBay for a while hoping to find a nice old vise for my new garage. I located one on Craigslist last evening. I wasn't sure what it was because the owner had no information on brand, model, etc. The nameplate on the side was missing, though I suspected it was an...

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Cool!

Beautiful!

This is awesome! I've been saving pieces of wood for years just for projects like this. Once my garage is complete, I'll be setting up my vintage Craftsman lathe just for this kind of stuff. Thanks for the pics and info.

I use the Cree brand LEDs from Home Depot and have had no issues in my Chamberlain garage door opener.

Thanks for the heads-up.

What about wrapping it in vinyl? You could choose your desired color/match your house trim...

Jonathan- You just cost me some cash! I joined Garage Journal a year ago because of an upcoming build I had planned. I'm mostly finished with the construction now and was looking at options for heat in the garage. When I started reading about mini splits on GJ, I started doing lots of research...

After viewing this thread, I was reminded that I wanted a replacement bulb for my Milwaukee M-12 (incandescent) flashlight. I ended up buying the one from SuperBrightLEDs. I LOVE this upgrade! It has made all the difference in the world on this light. I highly recommend it...
