My area requires all outlets to be GFCI (even if on the ceiling as I found out in a failed inspection), and at least 18" above floor so that low-lying combustible fumes won't somehow self-ignite.

I totally get that part. I get tired just sitting in a chair and watching my GF do stuff around her place. Best of luck/skills to you.

Hi BoostingAZ . Fellow Arizonan here, NE Tucson. Been following you for a while. Genuine question why you'd move out of hot but dry AZ for humid as hell Indiana? Been in both places and would much rather live west than east. If not too personal, why did you move? What's the left side of...

Where do you live?

I can't vouch for quality of individual styles/models, but do know from personal experience that these folks deliver excellent customer service. Very large selection. https://www.lampsplus.com I bought these recently, no problems...

I recently built a 24' X 44' detached garage. Garage door was to be 8' high. Got concrete floor work estimated at that. 4" pour. Changed my mind and went with 10' garage door. That change forced a change in the rebar work (to what they called an "engineered footer") and a 5" pour, and...

I'm afraid to ask how much Snap-On charges for a new floor jack? First-born son?

Hopefully your cousin didn't tell you that JB Weld is sufficient to hold the lift to the garage floor....

Any time I put a vehicle on jack stands, I always give the vehicle a good strong shake to verify the lift. Also, use in pairs only.

Put one in a closet in my GFs house, replacing chain pull switch; she thought I was a genius! :)

Consider something like this......

I picked up two steel chests of drawers from an estate sale recently. Sanded down the backs and sides and repainted them. They had Bausch & Lomb property tags on them, so I guessing they were for eye wear shops for the various lenses and frames. Size 19" wide X 25" X 50" high, on caster...

My dad bought a pair of Nippon Kogaku (which became Nikon) binoculars in Japan when he was stationed there +- 1956. According to the web, they are a very good pair. I still use them when I want to be nosy in my neighborhood. LOL

My HD has a single line feeding a number of manned/un-manned but monitored checkouts. Seems pretty efficient to me and it usually moves faster than expected.

I live in Tucson, and low humidity and desert climate / flora creates conditions that sometime cause sound to travel quite far. And the lower the frequency the further it can travel. (See pic below). House with X marked on it installed what I am guessing is a heat-pump type pool heater. The...

Add a UFER near the eventual electric sub-panel.

My GF gave me this for Christmas last month for my new garage/shop/place where work gets done/mancave/he shed/place to hide/sinkhole for my savings account/etc.....

OK, I read sticky post #4, question answered. Thanks all.

What are the different functions of the two grounds? If all the grounds are ultimately bonded together ( as in post #3 pictures in the sticky thread referenced earlier), what are the different purposes? Not arguing, just want to learn.

I paid $1460 cash for 88 linear feet total, two eaves, in July 2023. Seamless. Included +- 40 linear feet of downspouts. Quality work, excellent color match, in and out in 3 hours.
