Re: BendPak 4 Post / 2 Post Lift Group Buy **Pricing Update** Could you please pm me the price on hd-7p, hd-9st, and hd9-stx.

I will say that I also brought home a set of German "Blau Anton" worker overalls, but these never really grew on me in terms of comfort. But I will admit I am not really a fan of overalls. I remember they were $20 at the most in the year 2000 or so, but there was a Deutschmark -dollar...

Yes, I have 2 pairs of the Swedish work pants I brought back from Stockholm the last time I was there. Seems like they were $60 or so 3 years ago? They were good, but I wonder if people elsewhere in the world talk about our dickies double knee work pants at $25 each (which I prefer).

Thanks! Great input!

The two vs four post argument is a waste of time. For me, a 4 post is better for 99.9% of what I do. From the time I am out if the drivers seat to the time the car is in the air, 10-20 seconds without having to stoop down to position arms. Your hoist, your choice...

I have two cars that I do wheel and tire swaps on every spring and fall to snow tires, and that is what I thought the jack would be nice for, quick tire changes, not brake work or anything else. Maybe a short bottle jack would be better for less money...

I have a four post ALM 12k lb lift, with one rolling air bridge jack. and instead of buying a second similar jack, I have been thinking about buying a two or three bag sliding air jack for lifting cars up by the pinch welds for purposes of tire changing mostly. Anyone have one of these jacks...

The unfair advantage, by mark donohue. Awesome read for a car guy!!! Also the last open road series by Burt levy

If this was closer I would be interested, but I am probably 300+ miles away.

Check out parallel chord trusses also. Same pitch on inside and outside. Search this site for more info. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Where are you? If you are in mn, I have a used 7500 watt ceiling mount modine I would sell you from my old garage. Here in mn, running 7500w of heat raises my 1,000 sq ft hi ceiling well insulated garage by about 5-10 degrees f per hour. Not too bad, but it is not like a gas unit heater...

This place is not the cheapest, but they have 2,3,4 way new switches and plates. http://www.rejuvenation.com/catalog/products/single-pole-switch

The rear section of my garage is 24x24 with open rafter construction, and 10/12 pitch. The ceiling is drywall, and painted bright white, and I have conduit surface mounted 12 2700k 23 watt CFL bulbs on it(100 watt equiv each). They are simple $1 ceramic surface mount fixtures, with no...

Have you considered parallel chord trusses. http://www.wisconsintruss.com/files/WiscTruss_OrderGuide.pdf With a 24' wide building, an 8' wall on a single block, and a 10/12 pitch, the car hoist could be 5' from the side wall. Since you can put the posts "between" the trusses, you can put the...

At work I have a big Detroit powered genset, and I really like these units... Watch this video and decide if a 2-71 powered unit could work for your home, as they seem like a great bargain to me. http://www.emerson2-71gm.com/Gensets.html...

Do not use brake cleaner to clean the metal before welding!!! Check out this link to see what could happen. http://www.brewracingframes.com/id75.htm

Did you get a quote on the 480V 3 phase installation, step down transformer (to 208v 3 phase), and panel yet? For a building the size you mentioned in your intro, I am assuming you are thinking about a 400 amp service? If the price of getting the 3 phase power to the building is reasonable for...

Welcome to the forum Bob.

Keep posting pics guys! I am thinking about a metal ceiling in my shop this summer. Does anyone have pics of metal on a steep inside ceiling, like a 10/12 rafter garage for instance?
