I just put my cart together that was purchased a couple of weeks ago. I told the manager that I was out of town when they were selling for $79 and he agreed to let me have it at that price. I bought a few other trinkets and they even let me use a 20% off coupon on the cart also. For $64 I...

X 2 I like cheap carpet better than anything.

Nice looking garage. My only advice is to build as big as you can afford. :drink: How will you get to the loft area? Make sure the loft floor will hold all those Camero parts. Good luck in your build.

I really like your innovative use of space. The doors look great. I would definately change how you attached the hinges though. Even with 1 bolt on each hinge side going all the way through, a pry bar for pressure and a cordless impact would loosen it enough to cut the head with bolt cutters...

How about using these on the wall next to the door opening when it is up. Found at the friendly Harbor Freight website. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Category.taf?CategoryID=740&pricetype=

WELCOME ABOARD. 8'x8' is not a very big room to cool even for an 8 yr old AC unit. How much will you use the room? Are you going to keep the AC unit running constantly? If not I'd stay with the older unit. The pay-off between the two would take too long. Definately insulate the walls and...

What a great deal. :thumbup: I always make it a habit to check their returned items area. It seems that the contractors they hire out to install things for folks where I live can't measure correctly so there are always windows and such that are marked down. I bought a custom 9'-6" solid...

I agree with FRANZ, something is being left out of the equation. :wtf: Is there bad blood between you and the neighbor? Maybe the guy is just a normal hard working American that wants to fulfill his dream and building the house himself is the only way he can swing it. Point his to this board...

You could go cheap and use quarter round to cover the joint. How far back does the drywall set from the edge of the concrete? If you don't like a flat area for debris to land on just rip you own trim at a 45 degree angle.

Nice house and garage. My suggestions.... 1) Seal the concrete or put down epoxy. 2) Add lots of cabinet space. 3) If you wrench, put in 220v for a compressor and welder. 4) If you don't wrench, add a sofa and a kegerator.:spit: Where does the driveway across the street go to? Looks...

I didn't mention this in my previous post,but check out these pics for homemade stands. http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techti...and/stands.htm

I tried to use the coupon for the first time today... OK, I'm a little slow at catching on. I got the same "hacker-fraud", "pirated web site" speech at the Sears store in the Crossroads Mall in Kalamazoo, MI. I even tried several other departments and each one said they wouldn't take the...

I know you said you didn't have time to build your own rotisserrie, but thought others might be interested in pics of other builders adaptations. $1100 sounds expensive to me when one could be built in a day or two. http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/body/bodywork/stand/stands.htm

I would be sure to consider your winter temps if you move the water lines to the garage. I've been there many times when it was below 32*. You could heat trace the lines, but that is typically a temp solution. Maybe the house hasn't sold due to the floor plan. If the builder really needs to...

All drop in sinks that I have installed had some type of fastener from underneath the countertop. (I've only installed a few during remodels so I am definately not an expert) It is wise to put silicone or plumbers putty on the underside of the sink edge and then tighten it down. This will...

Nice house and car collection. :thumbup: I have a couple of thoughts you might consider. 1) definately consult your local zoning laws. As stated previously, there is probably some sq. ft. limit compared to lot size. (for some reason neighbors don't like to view a big honking garage from...

Set the anchor in place, drill and tap the internal slug. If the slug spins, just reset it and continue to drill. Thread in a bolt and pull the slug up. This will release the pressure on the side of the drop in and allow the slit to close up. The anchor then will come out the same way it...

If the installation of everything was on the up and up, permits, etc I do not see why you would not make the proper parties responsible for fixing the problem. I have never had to use a lawyer in such a capacity, but right is right. Unless you have unlimited $ I do not undestand your position...

Good luck on your garage. I would suggest that you build as big as possible if you are planning on staying in that house for a while. Don't scrimp on depth. Nothing ***** worse that having to open the garage door to get around a vehicle. I just had a 26x42 built for under $16K in Kazoo...

Check this site. http://www.gilmorecarmuseum.org, they have a replica of a shell station
