    Re: Embedding vidoe's stopped working - FYI Its a setting that can be tweeked, but really no big deal. Ask the site admin to look, I run a forum amstafftalk and its easy to flip on and off for each category.

    I did see those, they're pretty sweet, but i don't really plan on having anything plugged in for an extended period of time out there, just knew if I didn't put some on the outside I would regret it at some point.. :)

    Thanks Buick... Last night I swapped some outlets around and changed the outside outlets to a different brand, I didn't like how the other ones sealed up, these are much better and I ran a bead of silicone as well. Pinned HD against Lowes in a bidding war on the remain stuff for the shop...

    Re: Embedding vidoe's stopped working - FYI It is or was working in the - General Garage Discussion last week, but when my thread was moved to the Gallery the embeded vidoe stopped. My guess is the setting on the other folders/groups need to be tweeked to match.. You can easily test in the...

    Thanks Dan! I think the only reason I was able to do this is because I used my bucket all winter plowing my driveway, which filed my bucket like a razor. Took 4 hours on the tractor, probably could have gone quicker with a trencher for sure. Still got a lil hand digging to do but looks good...

    Started the trench for the electrical wire, 2" conduit going down 18". Was going to rent a trencher, but the only places open on Sunday didn't have any. So i started with the bucket. It was slow at first ground is hard as a rock, but once i got about 20ft down it got really easy to dig. Can...

    Got 98% of my electrical done now, added the two outside outlets I wanted. All I have left is the two garage lights above the doors and to run my air compressor and welder 220 lines. Then of course the main power from the house.. Also got my 2nd to last stump out today, only took 2 hours, 1hr...

    Electrical? Not yet, waiting on my bank account to catch up with my goals.. I did hear back from the local gas company about getting hooked up. At first they said it would be so much per foot and a charge for the meter when he came out to the property. Then all of a sudden today the guy...

    I bought my first garage and it came with a house!!!

    That's what I did as well, didn't even care what the house looked like it had a 4 car garage. Girlfriend at the time thought I was crazy, then we remodeled the entire house and garage. She's now my wife..

    My goal was under 25,000.. I would have been under that by 200 bucks, but I added the ceiling for 1,800 and then the front skirt of concrete for another 1,300.. Then added 700 of rebar.. I did all site work and paid for all the stone, my cousin runs trucks so got the stone at cost, which was...

    Only had an hour or so out there today, but got the rest of the outlet boxes mounted, then wired them all up and put in the outlets. I went a lil crazy, but being that I am not sure where / how I am laying out everything, this gives me the most flexibility in the future after I close up the walls.

    This in the gable end, it was stamped by an engineer and passed my building inspectors approval. But I agree, I just assumed all the poles would be 7'6" apart, didn't realize till we were well passed the point of no return. I then broke out the drawings and it was in the plan I approved.. I...

    Got the locks installed on the doors today, ran two electric lines to the back wall, one for the exhaust fan I plan on putting in and the other for the outlets. Then put up the inside purling. The back wall has longer spacing 10' needless to say a 2x4 seems flimsy going that span so I just cut...
