So I just completed this on my compressor. Derale cooler, 1/2 stainless lines, auto drain, and a couple brass connectors. Bending stainless lines is pretty difficult to bend smoothly tight, but between everything turned out already.

I have the exact same size shop, garage doors, and man door. 2inch closed cell spray foam in walls then r11 batts and ceiling in R19 cellulose. I installed a 18k pioneer minisplit. It kept at 60degrees [set temp] when -9. It keeps it at 72 [set temp] when over 100...mid missouri temperatures are...

Finn, I have all the data I need. If you say China is the best product country show me your evidence. Stats are bent to the highest payer...real world experience is what I want. Sure Ford says it's trucks get 30mpg on hwy, in real world it's only 18. Again, at this time Buying Made in...

Finn, I am not a metallurgist but in multi millions of dollars of gym equipment is my personal experience. The shipping containers of Chinese metal gym equipment bends/rusts/ and breaks 3x faster then American metal/equipment of the same thickness. This is the same experience I've had with...

You are over thinking it because of cost. 1. Do it. Pay the pro and enjoy. 2. I do recommend wrapping house wrap around building before spray foam just in case you have to replace a metal panel. But it's not a issue if you can't, just harder to panel a damaged panel. 3. The metal will rust...

Craftsman boxes are American made. In Missouri. That was the only box I could find American made so I bought it. Yes, cost is more for less but I want my money to go to American workers and an American company. [Craftsman is owned by Stanley Black and Decker.

Buy American. Stop supporting China

Cmu[block] let's air and moisture through it like a straw. You really should go with closed cell foam on the inside and moisture barrier paint, bare minimum, on the exterior.

I am not a plumber but I've completely replumbed my 1st home [it was a foreclosure gut job], did the plumbing and septic for my shop, and did the plumbing for my basement. I've used the cheaper pex crimp tool with Cooper...

I've had no problem getting good cells. I am not looking to build a tesla battery but a maximum 40vv battery pack.

Do nothing... let her rip tator chip

I've rebuild a half dozen Ryobi battery packs and a couple random packs in the wife's vacuum, flag light, and hart 40v battery pack. I bought a kerpu mini spot welder off Amazon which has worked great. I did buy some thinner ribbon to make the spot welds better because the cheap Amazon welder...
