    Real world cost to build a 24x30 garage?

    I am in the process of having a 24'x30' with 12' ceiling pole barn built. Don't forget all the other costs that go along with the project. 1)Do you have to remove trees? I had to have 6-7 80' pines removed. 2)Permitting costs. Probably scales based off the sq ft of the structure. 3)Does your...

    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002MW9UW8/?tag=atomicindus08-20 showed up yesterday. All of the correct sockets were in there in tidy order. This case, and latches, are a bit better than the larger cases.

    I got those 3 before as well. I just picked up the metric set with some of the missing 20s and the sockets above 30 that weren't in the other metric set. It ended up being $55 so that seems pretty decent. Hmmm do I want the 1/4" also. I have a craftsman set but it's not as complete as this...

    Home Depot Clearance Thread 2015

    Made a pass through my local Home Depot tonight... worthless. There were only 2 endcaps of clearance stuff and only 1 item (a little flash light) ended in .06. Everything in clearance was marked less that 1 month ago. I probably doesn't help that they are a tail end of a store expansion and...

    Home Depot Clearance Thread 2015

    Mine are showing 498 in Maryland. Why such a price difference?! How do I get it for this price? Am I able to order it from the store that has it on sale or will HD price match another store?

    Electrician for Heavy up / garage [ Silver Spring, Maryland]

    Eh it fits in pretty OK. 720SF will take up maybe 1/3 - 1/4 of my back yard. Since it's smaller than 1/2 my house foot print the county was OK with it.

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    Cool, thanks for the input. I looked up what an IES file is and that led me to a lumens calculator also. According to this http://www.charlstonlights.com/led-light-requirement-calculator , assuming it's accurate, that should put my lighting between hospital and showroom - good stuff. Not that...

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    I just picked up 16 of the Feit 4' LEDs at Costco. I am building a 30'x24' garage with 12' ceilings. Should 4 rows of 4 be sufficient lighting with these? These are the 3700 Lumens, 4Ks.

    Building color: I think I decided to go with the stone siding and the evergreen roof/trim/wainscoting. There is a darker color also (clay) but I think the lighter stone color looks pretty good also. Install date: Wooohooooo! So we are T - 5 weeks out from my install date weather permitting...

    I believe the feed will come off a double pull breaker on the house panel and go to a sub panel, with it's own main shutoff, in the garage.
