    Above 1200 Sq/FT My new garage build! 30x50 !

    Thank you! We got the rest of the fencing done tonight, kinda irritated with UPS though. My epoxy has been in town since Saturday afternoon, and they wont bring it until tomorrow because that was the date they listed initially. Nothing worse than knowing your package is 20 minutes and also 24...

    Thanks Cody, I have 5 days to get it done and on the water. I registered it last Friday, hoping TWRA will send me my numbers asap so I can have them made. Im asking to get pulled over if I go out without a sticker on it, but I really want to be on the water for the 4th.

    Saturday went by fast! dodging storms and trying to get as much work done as possible. I pulled the pontoon out about 0730 and got after it. I started pulling the self tapping screws out of the deck boards, some were a bit more stuck than others. My hand impact driver worked great to break them...

    So the product I wanted to use would be either King star board or Coosa board. A sheet of 1/2 star board was 240 dollars 3 years ago when I last purchased it. I imagine a 3/4 in sheet would be well over 300 dollars apiece at this time. Coosa board is another good alternative, but a 3/4 in...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT The Hobby Shop - Down in the Holler (24'x32')

    Grade killed me on fill for my shop. I had almost 7 feet of block at the back corner of my shop 2 feet at the highest corner. I should have built a bunker under it like @madison069 did on his shop.

    So I used this same brand last year on his GLA when the turbo crapped out and it did fine. This one made boost for about half a block before it started making an awful noise and lost power. I constantly advocate for him to let me do it my way, with parts I trust, but he is willing to roll the...

    That looks like a bosch evap valve that VW/ Audi used in the early 2000s in case you ever need a better price on a bad evap purge valve.

    Mike , my good friend Jeff who works for me started in 2007 at Audi as my apprentice. I showed him lots of shortcuts I had learned, but also taught him that there were thongs that were nonegotiable like torquing critical fasteners and spinning an engine 2 revolutions to make sure we did timing...

    Friday night I got a call from my sister about a noise from her crv. She said it had a terrible vibration and they had tires put on earlier in the day. I thought it sounded like a loose wheel so I grabbed my torque wrench and headed over to her house to check it out. Her husband handed me a...

    Mike, he was making the rounds at the campground and playing with a group of kids the last time I saw him. Once it got dark I couldnt see across the pond to keep an eye on him. This campground had a few dogs that live there as campground dogs and just kinda roam the place. I figured he would fit...

    Pickup bedliner suggestions

    My son and I sprayed raptor liner in my 99 f250 last year and I have been impressed in how its held up. I bought a bed brush and prepped all surfaces then cleaned and wiped them down before spraying the sides and back. Once they were done, I removed the cardboard I was kneeling on and did the...

    Cody the hardest part seems to be finding a local supplier. Since marine plywood uses arsenic as a preservative its not sold by HD or Lowes anymore. I found a local supplier I will hit up tomorrrow morning and if they have it I expect it to be about 100 a sheet, maybe less. Online prices from...
