    And so it begins

    Update. I got tired of looking at plain walls so I decided to paint some strips at last. Let me first say that textures walls are a pain. I started with blue painters tape and clear paintable caulking, and was very disappointed with the way it looked. I reset for the next day and went at it...

    White Benchtop Crack Fill

    What do you all use for filling the crack on your bench tops? I thought maybe white caulk, but was wondering what everyone else uses.

    New workbench build

    I hate to admit to it but I think I’m actually drooling over this now. Please don’t tell the little lady it might end up costing me something. Thank you for the info.

    New workbench build

    Maybe I missed it but how did you fasten the support leg to the wall? I’m sure it doesn’t just screw in with drywall screws is it? I would also like to see some measurements of over all height and depth of the bench. Sorry I’m close to pulling the trigger on this design and have a flood of...

    The Dark Night cave, lighting..

    That would be my guess. Frosted plexi glass with florescent lighting above the panels.

    My Basement shop

    I agree. I changed out a lot of parts on my Mazda. Head gaskets, spider gears, transmission, and the timing chain twice. It still runs today with a little over 287,000 miles on the odometer. I would check the timing chain as this seems to be a weak link.

    And so it begins

    Lighting is up. I think it turned out great. There was a little concern with the darn ductwork running in the middle of the ceiling.

    Lighting Questions

    Just wanted to give a up date as to what I decided to do. I moved both of the outer right hand side lights back to 41 1/2 inches from the divider. The center light I turned sideways and aligned it 41 1/2 inches from the divider. I'm real happy with how it turned out and will be posting...

    And so it begins

    I agree!!!! A good bit of it is stuff from back when we first moved in. I haven't found away to get the old lady to give up here stuff yet. I can only put so much in the trash can every week without her noticing.

    Lighting Questions

    This is what I'm working with. I have 6 2xT8 4' light fixtures. I'm planning on three on either side of my ductwork divider. I'm concerned that the three on the right side of the duct work is not going to put enough light out since I have to place them so close to the divider. The garage...

    Dumbest things we ever had to fix

    Like most of you this was in high school shop class. Teachers could get their oil changed for cost of supplies. The students pulled the car in to the stall and proceeded to jack it up and from across the room I heard a snap and then followed by an O-**** Turns out the students had tried to...

    Check out this home made all-wood car lift!

    No I’m not an engineer. The problem is not the wood being old but more of the fact that it has been damaged and is missing chucks of wood. Wood is perfectly acceptable to use however there are some major flaws with this design. Do I think jack stands are any better? No, I have had and seen...
