No dumb questions exist. 8" vertically. If you don't use press treated lumber then put something between the wood and the concrete...steel bracket ? asphalt shingle or two ? just no direct contact.

Without a full design analysis, I'm making some assumptions. The center beam will be supporting 2x the weight as the end beams so I'd add a 2x8 along side the 4x8 or use a 6x8. With a roof load of 30psf and using 2x6 joists at 16"o/c and 3/4 decking the floor is good for about 70psf.

The size of the truss members will be a factor in how you attach a finish surface to the bottom of the top chord. A small span might have 2x4 tops but a snow load might dictate 2x6. Closed cell spray foam direct to the sheathing makes for a rigid and airtight roof. Not knowing your location make...

'Pavillion' says post-frame construction. 44'-0 says 11'0 o/c or 8.8' o/c for posts. If you think that you will ever need/want an OHD on the side then use 11'-0 spacing. You can trade the $$$LVL and smallish trusses for double trusses on the columns and the additional cost for the purlins. Have...

Given that the walls/roof will be supported by the 1'-0 cantilever and that you apparently only have 3 beams at 6'0 centers you need to use a deeper beam. I haven't run the numbers, and you don't say where you are located, but my gut says 4x6 will be on the light side. I'd step up to 4x8.

Might not hurt to have a little more info on the property.

I have used some of the 8' led strip lights, ebay stuff. They are maybe 1½" deep and give amazing light. No, I don't spend much time looking at them so for some installs they might have a glare issue. My ceilings are at 9'. One advantage is that I can daisy-chain these lights if I want more.

I am still helping out my late friend's widow, still finding stuff Fred had tucked away or, more likely, simply forgot about. I already have two similar units or else I'd keep it. Nice looking unit. Dayton 6y945 belt/disc sander It is still in the original shipping box from Gamut. It does...

Damn!!! and happy you should be.

Actually, this is a great idea if the OP can get past the 'pretty' architectural stuff. But, put the two cans about 40' apart (concrete fdn of course), build a 6' 'knee' wall at the top inside face of the cans then drop some trusses on top. Instant 15' ceiling. Too many options to list for end...

How much free time do you have? What is your skill set? How much cash, or financing, do you have? There are plenty of general contractors out there who can work through the permits and design a decent shop. After all, they do this for a living, just don't go to some kids who started business...

Good for you.

$1 /lb seems like a fair price, perhaps more if someone is in driving range. Recent freight quotes are downright scary.

This is an old, but NEW, machine. No idea as to age, I am helping a widow lady clean out the shop. Seems to be more and more common ...... Anyway, asking $200 plus the freight. I'll do the best I can on packaging to minimize size of box.....and no extra charge for the dirt/dust. My old buddy...

I am a bit curious about how you are getting the wedge anchors out...? As for the holes, why not just move the lift over 3" and start over?

Looks like a quality control issue. I have helped with multiple bath remodels, and several of my own, over the last 30 years and never had or heard of an issue due to the methods and materials employed...start with epoxy grout and say goodby to mortar related cracks and leaks. A full tutorial...

You are on track along with some very good suggestions. Yes, 8" of stone would be good, compacted in 4-5" lifts. For the trusses, scissor truss will give you more height at the center but not at the plate, an attic truss will give you a flat ceiling but with storage capacity and a raised haunch...

will be bringing in dirt / gravel so the level of garage floor is about a foot higher than current yardl. This along with foundation / stem wall for allow for excellent grading and divert runoff well around the structure. Unless you plan on compacting, very well, filling with dirt can cause...

The door is only part of the equation. Look around at places like Habitat for Humanity. I have bought several doors from them over the years including labeled fire doors. The next step is to buy a Timely frame and then ball bearing hinges from ebay. Obviously, if the hinge locations are the...
