It looks like it will definitely be cutting it close. Why not just have them raise the outlets regardless? The lm8500 has a cord on it so it’s not like the outlets need to be 2” from the unit.

I use Mobil1 in my vehicles and Rotella in my toys that have a wet clutch. I use royal purple gear oil in my differentials. I agree that Amsoil is probably good but not 3-5x the price of other top brands good. For what it’s worth, a buddy of mine had his transmission flushed in his 2014...

How would Snapon even know that you sold it? Sell it, send them the pay off amount and they won’t care about where the box is.

Please excuse my ignorance but what’s the back story with Lowe’s now selling Craftsman? Is Kobalt going bye bye or are they going to sell both? Do they plan to stock a large quantity of Craftsman hand tools and do a warranty exchange just like Sears used to? I was shocked the other day when I...

Nice to see someone that actually gets work done rather than worry about the floor being clean enough to eat off of. I see so many shop pictures on here where everything is immacualate and wonder where they find time to do any actual work.

I have the exact same nozzle as the one on your hose. My father in law gave it to me because it leaked. A new 5 cent o-ring later and I have the best hose nozzle I have ever owned. It sits out ever winter in the open position and still works great. The more you open it goes from shower to stream.

Looks good! Loft looks like it turned out great! I always liked that color siding with white trim.

Why is everyone acting as if the fact that this guy licks the spider webs off of the humming birds is normal? Should I have been licking hummingbirds all along and just didn’t know about it?

One dollar bags of clay cat litter from the dollar store. I buy three bags at a time and dump it into a 5 gallon bucket and keep a plastic cup in with it. It will soak up liquid spills quickly. Sometimes after I put the litter down I’ll use my foot or a piece of wood and rub the litter a little.

I got my nine 80 watt lumegen fixtures installed today. I can believe how much they light up my garage. I am very impressed and very surprised. Thanks a ton to the few people that talked me into these. It was so nice only having to wire 9 fixtures. I have a good video that shows how much light...

Ya, I to sometimes forget to turn it off before I start talking to someone.

I ordered one of these as my switch. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01HIMC7EE/ref=sxts_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1524557550&sr=1&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_QL65 I am going to run a seperate dimmer as Platonic suggested. Is 18-2 the recommended wire for the dimmer? Is it as simple as running all the purple wires...

I use a good name brand head lamp. It has a few option for wide beam, spot light, etc. it shines wherever I am looking. https://m.lowes.com/pd/Energizer-Vision-HD-Focus-315-Lumen-LED-Headlamp/1000009446

Another thing I found weird with the brackets for these lights. The brackets that I paid extra for do not have knockouts in them (the mounting bracket doubles as the junction box). The brackets that came with the lights are identical but have two knockouts on each side. I do not know why they...

My wiring is done and I did not wire for a dimmer. My building is still not finished on the inside. I can easily add the 18-2 for the dimmer if I feel that I need it. Thanks for the quick replies!

My nine 2’ 80 watt lumegen fixtures came today. I also ordered the 9 mounting brackets for $2 a piece. Come to find out each fixture came with a bracket then I got the 9 that I paid extra for in a seperate box. So I now have 18 brackets and 9 lights. I am not sure if the fixture was suppose to...

I remember reading it on a thread before, if it’s super important I can try searching for it. Either way I’ll add a copper rod at my subpanel. Now that I know better.

Yins are making me spend money! Lol! I will probably end up putting a little smaller breaker in my main panel for the feed to the garage. I never plan on using anywhere near the 100 amp at once anyway. I will also end up putting a copper ground rod at the garage. Sorry for kind of getting this...

A bunch of people on here told me that the ground rod on my house was fine. The local electric supply house said the same. That's how I did it. Maybe one day in the future, I'll smack a copper rod in the ground out there and run it to the sub panel. It has been the way it is for a year now. I...

In my area I did not need a separate ground rod at the sub panel (at the garage). The copper ground at the house was good enough. The sub panel does have a seperate ground and neutral bar. My run was 85 feet and the local electrical supplier claimed it would be fine at 100amp. I smacked a 100amp...
