    Project Garage Condo

    I noticed the drywall finish coat I believe that the seems are really wide. Not saying there is anything wrong with that just curious about it since I've been able to tape the (new work) finish seems narrower. Regardless, it still looks really great looks like a professional job. Good work.

    thoughts on garage computer?

    I personally like desktops for the work shop however a tablet is convenient for portability. As far as touch screen I don't like it. Touching the screen is to much effort, you can fat finger a lot of stuff you want to select and then you have to clean it. I used to be a PC gamer so using the...

    Running a 20AMP circuit to backyard

    Ok then 12/2 nm circuit from panel to the outside of the house on the right side. I guess I'll leave that 10/3 outlet untouched. madosta from what I learned even the plastic covering you are calling convoluted tubing is called conduit as well. I always thought conduit was a general term however...

    Running a 20AMP circuit to backyard

    For some reason deep inside I thought there was a distinction between extension cords and hard wired circuits I just didn't know what it was. I don't see any continuous draw spec on my manual but I'll trust in what you say. I did not try a 12ga extension cord maybe I will. I can get a 10 ga...

    Running a 20AMP circuit to backyard

    I can use 12/2? :willy_nil I don't understand that damn welder manual then. Maybe those are overkill specs. Anyways that would make things easier for sure because I can get 12/2 at a good price. 12 inches is kind of deep, do you guys see any other way like mounting some type of pole and running...

    Running a 20AMP circuit to backyard

    Howdy partners I was wondering if there is a certain type of wire required for outside circuits? I was originally going to use 8gauge nm but I found some 8gauge stranded wire on ebay for a good price which would make it a lot cheaper. Would there be a problem with stranded 8 gauge wire? PS: I...

    TIG Welder Trips GFCI

    I'm no expert but maybe the receptacle is arcing at the connection on the hot or the neutral and tripping the gfci because of to much exposed wire on the connection? just a thought.

    Adding another air tank

    I'm thinking of adding a second tank myself. I have read the points that Nissan mentioned and SteveU which are really good points however, nissan has an 18scfm compressor most people who want to add a second tank are not even half that cfm. And in response to what SteveU said compressor engine's...
