I somehow managed not to post one of my favorite hidden modifications. It allows future electrical updates without tearing apart walls. I installed a 2-3" PVC pipe in the upper left-hand corner of the circuit breaker box that terminates in the attic with another sweeping 90° curve. This easily...

Rawen2 - I sent PM -- I assume you can receive them. If not let me know here.

MOPAULY -- a semi AND a bus. That is gonna be one ginormous shop!

Shorty -- this post is for you. Five weeks ago you recommended installing bollards at 3 feet high as opposed to my plan of a 18" tall black pipe railing. It took a week or two of searching to find what I wanted. It took a week plus to ship them to me It took another week to find and use a...

MOPAULY If you are in the concept phase of your Garaj Mahal, allow me to offer the below. I put these notes together months ago to reply to another post. Hope these help and that I am not telling you how to **** on egg: I am finishing up a 2300 SqFt Hobby Shop and am starting to populate it...

Renegrade -- did you consider the ICON tool chest? A little pricy but nice, I thought. I looked over a 72" model in the store and am considering the 56"er. Any thoughts?

Goldcar - thanks for the comments and for stopping in. What kind of gold car? A Rolls with "AU 1" on the plate???

Shorty - spent some time getting more stuff organized in my shop today. Threw a measuring tape on the small Schaller bin: it's 2.5" x 4". If you print 2x3 you'll have the market cornered. I don't have any experience with the tuning fork trees splitting from high winds or lightening storms. I...

Jay -- tell me about it. It tweaks my OCD / **** retentive self every time I open a drawer. Hopefully time will heal the wounds. I bought the white bins about 15-20 years ago. So long ago I can't even be sure they are Schaller's. All I know is Schaller no longer offers this size (2x3?) in any...

MOPAULY - there were no official plans. I went through about 5 different versions -- mostly minor changes. The biggest change was when the HOA disapproved my location request. That resulted in my having to flip everything left-to-right - mirror image. It also added a coupla 10's of thousand to...

I have decided to rename my garage: "Craig's Colorado Car Condo" had alliteration but was long and a bit awkward. I live in central Colorado which was (is?) in the heart of Indian country. The Ute, Cheyenne, Arapaho, Apache, and Shoshone were the most numerous, although Comanche, Kiowa, and...

fouckhest Are you aware of Schaller's drawer designer? https://www.schallercorporation.com/drawer-builder/ It allows you to build the drawer to maximize storage. It automatically builds the order sheet and, IIRC, tells you the cost. I agree, the bins can add up pretty quickly, but I really...

78SC4X4 - Good to hear you have your house protected with some extinguishers; time to do the same to your shop. :thumbup: Jay -- I totally agree. I really like the look of the powder coated garage door hardware/tracks, too. Puts some color on a large blank wall/door. I owe you and fouckhest...

I haven't posted anything for nearly a month. I have been dealing with a frozen Drain Pipe from my garage bathroom to the septic tank. Really frustrating but I have a really good band aid in place until spring when my GC is gonna dig up the the last 20 feet of the drain pipe to fix a belly that...

It all depends what you are storing in the drawers. The bottom ones are so deep that items will likely end up stacked on each other. I'd be inclined to go with more shallower drawers but like I said it all depends what you are storing in the drawers (and how heavy the items are).

MushCreek I have the same metal sheathing on my interior walls. As you said, you used a wood base board that the metal sheet is resting on. My installation includes what is called a "rat board" -- I think. Looks to me your J trim belongs on top -- see attached photo. The "rat board" is attached...

Re: Need advice Where in Colorado are you? I can recommend a great concrete contractor in vicinity of the Springs. They poured my floor (high bay is 36x48 and the attached smaller room is 24x24) and it is l-e-v-e-l. If interested they also applied epoxy floor covering. Craig

HD FLHX I know you just recently acquired a service cap for your display, but you can never have too many, Just spotted this on Craig'sList outside Denver: https://denver.craigslist.org/clt/d/littleton-vintage-1950s-texaco-service/7265165788.html QUOTE Vintage 1950's Texaco Service Station...
