Hi Eddie. I have 5/8 plywood for a wall. No sheetrock. Plywood is mounted to 2x6 studs. I understand what you are saying but trying to figure out how to support the front of it that is hanging in the air. I do not want post off the floor and the ceiling is way to high

hey guys, I tried a search and I possibly do not know the proper name for it. I have a garage with a cathedral style ceiling and would like to build a overhead rack coming off the wall and have support chains at the end that are mounted at the wall as well.ANy of you guys build one of these?? I...

Thanks Antman, I have 3/4 coming out of pump and tank so i will stick with that. Unf my compressor did not come with a belt guard and they are way to expensive to buy new so I will build my own mounting setup.

Hi guys, picked up a Champion VR5-8 and would like to install a aftercooler. I was looking at the Derale 13700 trans cooler that some people use but it only has 6an fittings which is 3/8, wouldnt that be a restriction? I also saw on here guys using the Hayden oil cooler,it has 3/4 inlets but...

TT. I saw it and looked awesome but was an additional $750 :(

5hp Baldor, 80 gal 2 stage, magnetic start and auto drain

I have seen them but worried about breaking down and electrical use. Thats why I didnt buy a used compressor, alot of people do not maintain them, never even drain tank.

hahaha, I am known to overthink things. I agree with you , just want to do it right the first time,thats all :)

I am several feet of 3/4 copper that i will be using to build exactly what you are describing. I guess I will have 6' long runs and have about 4 drains on the bottom. I have seen many done and always saw a air seperator and regulator at the end of the run so I thought I needed it to. Also, my...

Thank you for the well wishes :) Geo, quite a few complaints about leaks on the Nanpu units. Is there a particular series I am looking for?

Hi everyone, finally getting my dream air compressor. I have been researching for months on after coolers and decided to use 3/4 copper piping on the wall with drains on the bottom. I understand there is a thousand ways of doing this what I need help on is water separators, who makes an...

Occasionally and it better be cold outside. I won't be Turning on the heat when it is 50 outside.

Crazy h. What are you doing for insulation??

GeddyT, exactly my point. 3 months of winter a year and being in the garage on weekends only with maybe 10 hours max a day. I will never break even with a $5000+ insulation bill. A lot of people complain online about the Styrofoam baffles you buy at big box stores collapsing. I never seen...

Here is a pic of ceiling I am working with. A ridge vent could not work due to size of massive beam. Also had to tie in the rafters so I have a small section in the top that is flat. I am going to get long pieces of metal ceiling panels, white.

Thanks for the excellent response. My roof is vented with roof vents and soffits. Installing those vent rafters will be cheap . I rather stay away from blown in, to damn messy. The rafters are 2x8, why not lay 2x6 roxul on top of vents? It would much cheaper then spray foam, at least $3000...

Hey guys, thanks for all the replys. I understand about the importance of insulation, thats why my house attic is R60 but this is a shop that I wont be in everyday for 12 hours. so I am trying to see how long it would take to break even on all the money I spend in insulation for the roof. I...

Hi, I was going to but I am worried about condensation issues in the ceiling.

Hey guys. Like everything else today , foam insulation has gotten more expensive and is now out of my budget. My garage walls are completely insulated but not my roof joists which I was planning to foam and install metal roof paneling inside. This will be a heated garage. My question is this...

Thanks guys, much apprecaite it. I cant believe the hutch is going for $2500+ used. Even side cabinets are big bucks. I am sticking with this for now :)
