    Your thoughts on this garage setup?

    Layout looks good to me, I also like the Theater. Only thing I would recommend is make sure you get with the electrician and have plenty of 110v outlets on separate circuits and decide where you want 220v outlets installed. I got screwed when I built my house because I didn't follow up on the...

    Milwaukee m18 fuel 3/8 vs IR 5130

    If you're only going to use it under hood you should check out the M12 Fuel version. I have both now and since I got the Fuel version M12, I hardly ever grab my M18 anymore. The M12 has several size batteries for it but one is small and part of the handle. You can get almost anywhere with this...

    Concrete grinding question

    Op I will make a suggestion you may not have thought about. When I did me garage floor last summer, I rented storage containers from a company called SmartBox. http://www.smartboxusa.com/ They were cheaper then anyone else in my area. They bring it out and set it in your drive and then pick it...

    Just a Thought

    Justin, I think it's a good idea and pauloman without all the free advice from certain vendors on here lots of guys would be spending big money correcting mistakes made on their garage floors. I have never seen any of the vendors here talk bad about another brand of product, except the stuff...

    Lowes vs. Home Depot?

    I prefer HD but it is easier to navigate and find things the way Lowes stores are laid out. As far as on line goes I quit trying to find things on the Lowes web site. Their search engine is impossible to use. HD has a great site for finding things and I order for store pickup a lot but also get...

    In need of a floor jack

    I highly recommend Omega jacks. I have had their low profile jack for years and it has never given me a single problem. Here is a 3 ton model. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0049TSZIW/?tag=atomicindus08-20

    M12 vs. M18? Milwaukee Fuel 3/8" Impact Wrench. Which is better?

    I have the M12 Fuel 3/8's impact tool and the M18 Fuel High torque 1/2 impact tool. I use the M12, with the addition of a 1/4 adapter, for almost all the normal nuts and bolts on my Mustang. It's very light and compact, gets in almost anyplace and has plenty of power for most jobs. My M18 is a...

    Diamond cup wheels - which one to get?

    Spend a little more for your grinder and get one with variable speed capability. It's much easier to use the grinder on the slowest setting. I used the DeWalt cup for the edges when I did my floor but I would get the Diamana grinding tool from Scotty, if I knew then what I know now. Earl

    repairing intial install of epoxy

    Fred is currently out of commission with health problems, so he will not be getting back to you. About the only thing you can do is what Scotty suggested and recoat the floor. You don't have to worry about it being too thick but I don't think you can get any additional Wolverine products, while...

    Getting a 1/2" impact, reason to get 3/8"?

    I have the Milwaukee 1/2 M18 and 3/8 M18 Fuel series impact tools and I use the 3/8's most of the time. I only use the 1/2 on wheel studs and other heavy torque items. The new fuel M18 3/8's is fantastic, it has plenty of power for most jobs, is very small, weighs nothing and the batteries last...

    Is a One-Man Epoxy Application Out of the Question?

    Try it by yourself when it's 80 out and you have a pot life of about 15 minutes.

    Is a One-Man Epoxy Application Out of the Question?

    I wouldn't recommend it, you really need at least 2 people for the actual application. You can do all the prep work and such by yourself but when it comes time for the actual application, with the short pot life of epoxy, you really need one person mixing and one applying. I did mine by myself...
