Hello. I've been a member for a few years and have not posted much. I have done a lot of lurking and researching on the site. I have acquired a 24' x 56' shop and would like to employ a new compressor to handle any future needs (small blasting cabinet, air tools, a couple of tools may be run at...

Thanks matt_i. Here are two pics during rain. Sorry for the sideways pics. Trying to figure out rotation.

I'm thinking maybe dirt sloped away and add a roof gutter on each side?

Here are the pics:

I have some erosion around the perimeter of my garage slab. I trying to decide the best way to mitigate this unwanted activity. I have pics but don't know how to post them...reading up on that now...

The long sides of my garage (metal pole barn, erected August 2016) have light erosion under the slab and two corners. Concrete man did not do footers. (Please, let's not discuss this.) Slab is 5-1/4" thick. Should I fill along the sides of the garage with dirt or crusher run? I'm looking for...

If you do mean a ridge board and you are using 2 x 10 lumber for rafters, then I'd use a 2 x 12 for the ridge board (you'll have to gusset 2 together to achieve the 25'). What is your snow load rating? How far is your rafter spacing? Where are you located? If you are unsure, please seek help...

Firebrick43: the saw is a Dewalt DW715.

No extension cord...straight out of the box. My electrician measured voltage running through the chassis of my old saw, which was the exact same model as the brand new saw. I assume voltage is running through this new saw, too. I took old saw to authorized repair dealer. They too, measured...

Please elaborate.

Should a new 15A miter saw trip a 20A GFCI outlet?

Your third photo leads me to think of this possible method... 1. Place a 2"x6" vertically in each "C" channel of each metal vertical beam/post (perform this step wherever you have a vertical "C" channel metal post) 2. (Optional) drill through 2x6, both metal posts, 2x6 and secure with...

What is the best paint for a steel primed entry door. Oil-based enamel? Latex? What is the best method to apply paint without spraying it on? My new garage is standing tall. I'll try to post some photos later this evening. Thanks in advance.

Question before slab will be poured this week. Should I have the concrete man go with wire mesh or fiber mixed in the concrete. Slab will have 8 inch footing around perimeter (gravel not pushed all the way to edge of form boards), as well as 1" re-bar around perimeter and is 20' x 32' in width...

I got some Oakley's from a motorcycle shop. I wear them in the bass boat.

Hi. Noob here and my first post. I'm building a detached garage at the lake for a new boat. Would someone please recommend a reasonably priced steel door with frame. My wants are: mortise lock, regular handle and deadbolt, out-swing, nrp hinges, no panels, no glass, 1.75" door, size 36" x 80"...
