Well, its been 10 years since we added one extra outlet to the garage, so figured with my recent addition of a pressure washer shelf it was needed, finally having some source of power close to the doors is a huge improvement. After some thought and debating if I wanted to try to squeeze my ***...

Looking for a good working Hoover GUV. I have searched around and cannot find any for sale right now so figured I would reach out here and see if someone has one they are looking to get rid of or upgrade etc. Thanks for looking

Honestly if your garage is insulated in the roof, and the house is, the carport really doesn't need to be. You could wall it off if your wanting to but I see no benefit on you doing anything to it unless your wanting to separate the spaces in the attic etc. My buddy has a lift in his garage, he...

Thanks man. Yeah I think in a bigger shop its ok but when your so tight and packed in it makes things rougher on the eyes. Feels good being a step closer to some more organization and storage. Purging things on ebay left and right.... Then donated alot of signs and stuff to friends etc. Pass...

Well, weekend updates... First order of business was the dryer vent.... I decided that had to go. Alot of rework in that but it is now all inside the house and out of my way. Alot of work in the attic, but is working out very well and cleaned the garage up a **** ton. Patched the hose up and...

I will tell you this from my experience. My garage is an attached 2 car built in the 70s, it is like yours where attic shares space as most attached do. With that. I had more insulation added to my house. 20" total insulation in the house, 10" in the attic space. I went blow in due to thats...

I had the crapsman oil free for a few years, damn that thing was loud and one day it locked up when running. So a few years ago I bought a dewalt 30 gallon. Huge improvement over the crapsman. 1.6 hp motor, 155 psi 5.3 @90 Got it from tractor supply for 350 on sale. I have heard the kobalt...

When I didnt work every day in the garage, I would run the temp right at or above the dewpoint to combat this and it was very efficient when going in and out with vehicles etc.

Beautiful cars and garage man. Always had a thing for a few of your bucket list BMW... M3 is on my list at some point also but those wagons are down right ****.

Personally, I would have a pit installed before a lift in your situation. Or an in floor scissor lift if you really want a lift. You may look at just bumping out the back wall of the shed to get to 20ft of length to put a car all the way in? Also the 16' width will require tool boxes or...

Running a Boreal Mini Split 18k Btu heat pump. 2 car garage but with 9' celling. With all your insulation you should be fine at 18k btu also.

So I'm on the gulf coast here in Houston area. Humidity and heat are our claim to fame. So after 8 years with a 18k btu window unit cut into my side door, I finally had enough of the noisy *******. Mid of 2022 I got a 18k mini split. This busts the humidity and heat out of the park compared...

I'm running a 18k btu Boreal in my garage, quiet and works great. Only thing I will urge you to do is to get a good line set to hook up etc and do a very good evac job on pulling the vacuum. My unit was 2300 with an upgraded line set with the pad to place unit on. They offer dual head units that...

So I had a emergency water heater repair this last weekend, the store bought pipe ****** had its threads cut too deep, and the pipe failed in the threads. So per code in my area the water heater didn't need to be on a pedestal. So I got out the good ole engine hoist and got it off there, this...

Thanks, Yeah I am working that out right now also. The TV will be centered on that wall and a 24" x 30" cab on each side of it will work out great. The area above the compressor will get another 24" cab setup, and then the icing on the cake is the 30"x15" cabinets at the roofline down the...

I have a 18k btu mini split heat pump in mine with insulated garage doors, and 20" insulation in the attic. I am in Texas though, so my heat load is more than my cold. But so far in 30 degree weather here the heat works flawless.

The addition of the tank will make performance a ton better. Accumulator tanks is what we call them in my profession. So lets say you have 3/8" line over 20' and then a 50 foot hose connected, then your tool is seeing 70' of restriction. You could upsize the feed line to 1/2" to cut down on...

This resonated with me for years. I finally have made some major improvements. I purged all but 4 awards. I quit counting at 50 trophies that I threw away. I got rid of the window ac in the side door of the garage, I upgraded to a mini split. The washer and dryer went to the inside of the...

went through more stuff last night... moved some things around to see what my cad drawing would work like having that box in the middle... and it *****. The big roller against a wall is best option I believe. I now know why you guys are utilizing every bit of wall space.. Taking...

Playing with autocad when I had a few minutes.. one is what I currently have and other is a idea of where I may go with this. Thoughts? :beer:
