I bought a husky 60 gallon that is made by Campbell hausfeld and it is used for light hvlp painting (motorcycle stuff) and general air tools like impacts, blow nozzles, and cut off wheels. It does perfectly and the price was pretty damn good $450 currently on sale. It is an oiled compressor and...

New main panel and sub panel are in. Got the 240v outlet run to the closet. It will be much nicer once all the paneling is ripped off, then I will tape, bed and texture the existing drywall. Then give it a nice cost of paint. But the more I think about it, I'm not sure if it will be better to do...

Yea that's pretty much what I had been told. We had gotten a couple grand knocked off the price of the house originally because of the outdated electrical. So now I have an electrician coming out to do the panels and wiring in the garage for the 240 outlet where I want it. Just gotta wait for...

I'll probably end up with a track car in the not too distant future so I was thinking a two car garage width overhead door on the back wall with access from the back alley. And I can keep the windows because I think it's a nice touch. But not really a huge priority until I get closer to buying a...

Next up is replacing this antique sub panel so I can wire in a new 240v outlet over in closet so that can act as my compressor closet. When I bought the house I knew the electrical would need a little loving. The main panel is an old federal pacific unit and the sub panel is a bulldog electric...

Didn't quite come out like I had hoped. I was a bit amateur in my install. My cutouts were a bit too large. And one of the lights two ballasts are shagged. On top of that I didn't quite realize that the light projection wouldn't spread out much and is more of a straight down projection...

So my lights are 47x23inch. The space between my joists are 23 3/4inch. So they will fit in between them. My question is how to secure them in place? Since previously I would have drilled up and secured into the bottom of the rafter. Not the side. What's the easiest way to take up that extra 3/4...

My only thought with the garage door is that I'm not 100% sure I really need one. Everything I do right now is bike stuff. But that's not to say I would end up with another car project on down the road. So I see your point about framing it out before installing new drywall. The downside is I...

Tore up the linoleum floor this morning using a floor scraper and if did leave behind some glue residue. I chose to do this using a respirator just to be safe as I wasn't sure about asbestos concerns. Any tips for removing the residue? Got some shelves put together in the meantime as I really...

I recently just bought a new house that did not have an attached garage as it had previously been converted to into the master suite. Later on down the road it seems like they build a detached "Garage" that is roughly 25x22. I have a hard time calling it a garage as it has no overhead door and...

The orange threw me off, I thought they only made the F series in orange.

www.foamforyou.com and you want the polyethylene foam. 2.3lbs/cu ft is the cheapest and I have heard to stay away from the more dense stuff due to moisture getting trapped and causing flaking chrome and rust.

I spy a really nice f800gs

I finished up cutting the foam for my tool box to organize all of my tools. Didn't take too long. Total cost was like $28. I also have a small tool box too so take that into consideration. Upon finishing it I realized it is Alot of weight for those crappy entry level drawers and they're kind of...

I did gray on bottom, red stripe and white on top.

There's something nice about an organized tool box.

Seems like a hand held impact driver would have worked a little better for you.

I doubt it. I'm sure somebody will buy the rights to craftsman. Where it will be sold, now that I don't know. Could become online only like circuit city did?

I only ask because older wrx's are notorious for that. They need head gasket replacements often. But aluminum block and heads with a steel bolt makes it a pain. Something about the different expansions of the metals due to heat and cooling causes the head bolt to seize in there.
