    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Finally got the single bay side of the garage all cleaned up after finishing it. Just need to return some tools to my parents and get the ladders moved out. Still trying to figure out what I'm going to use this side for. Possibly parking the car in winter.

    Caulking guns

    I used a Newborn when caulking the seams of the OSB I put up in my garage, as well as some various caulking around the outside of my house. It's worked really well for me.

    Got the Ducati banner hung up. Also got the window trim painted and put up on the window. Just need to get a couple longer screws for the top piece. Finished up the day by re-doing the 240 plug with conduit and a new receptacle.

    Liftmaster 8500 questions

    I have two of them installed. I put the light up in the larger section of my garage, but will probably take it down as it's not very useful (for me) and it tends to stay on quite a long time before it times out (yes I adjusted the timer on it down). I also have the MyQ Internet Gateway and it's...

    Black Friday Deals (Post them Here)

    I think I got there around 8 or 9, but they were handing the slips out all night. TV brand wasn't guaranteed, but my friend got an Emerson, and I'm sure that's what everyone else ended up getting too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Last year all you had to do was get a slip and pay for it. They give you a call/email when they get the TV's in. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Solid verses stranded wire in conduit

    I used solid 12-gauge when I re-did my electrical with conduit. My longest pull was ~36 feet. I contemplated using stranded, but for the same reasons others mentioned I chose solid for a more solid termination, and I thought it would be easier to push/pull due to the added stiffness.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Got my shock back from getting charged with nitrogen. Tested it out by compressing it and setting the rebound setting as high as it goes. Letting it sit overnight to make sure there's no oil/nitrogen leaks. Then the final assembly will happen with the spring retainer and compression/rebound...
