Glad it worked out! a little $$ out of pocket, but you did the right thing. Now, just be able to convince everyone else that borrows stuff to do the same. Anyway, you'll rest easy knowing you did the right thing

You have to shop around. The difference I've found is the springs are stronger and the drums are tapered. That said, the top track that begins the curve is flipped side to side. The long part that's usually horizontal is now attached vertically to the wall and the doors sometimes need an extra...

I agree with rsanter, it's going to have to be replaced. Grind off the welds, you can buy another at harbor freight or tractor supply. and weld a new one in. That crack happening that easy give me an uneasy feeling. steel shouldn't crack that easy.

Usually they're a devilbiss brand unit. I have a Craftsman 20 gal, 4hp unit that I bought about 20 years ago. It finally locked up after the oil leaked out (unbeknownst to me) but I should have kept a closer eye on it. Anyway, I was able to do a little internet research and buy the replacement...

Stumbled across pace lifts while looking for a lift. http://www.pacetools.com/Products/VTP-11C I like the specs on the 11000lb lift and the prices seems good with a current 15% off coupon. Anyone tried them? Any experiences to share good / bad? I'm in Houston and they're south of Ft. Worth...

Merlin, I'm doing the same. Radiant barrier for the roof deck and side walls with felt then hardiplank walls. Insulation inside walls and ceiling (max depth. I have all 2x6 walls, even upstairs) and then they'll have sheetrock over that (after my air lines and wiring of course). My roof deck is...

I just found this issue and I'm doing a similar project. I live in Houston, in the Heights, and I'm rebuilding my 2 car detached garage into a garage/auto shop with office / gameroom / storage over it. 713Dakota, we're neighbors! I also recently bought my son a 2000 Dakota that we put an engine...

We've just poured slab on my new 30x30 garage and I'm looking for options on placing my air lines near the electric outlets. I'd like something recessed, the way the new washer hookups are recessed in new home construction. That way you can walk neaw the wall and not snag yourself on a...

But remember, if it stays raised more than 4 hours and won't go down, call your doctor

Eaton compressors www.eatoncompressor.com I'm going to get their 80 gallon, 7.5hp two stage. 26CFM @ 175 PSI @ 600 rpm pump speed AWESOME.

I've been following along on this thread and am wondering what programs you are using for your electrical drawings? They look great and I'm getting ready to do a garage construction of my own. I have the architect drawings, but want a more elaborate drawing like above. Curtis

What was your cost per ft? Where do you purchase the material? Tractor Supply or online somewhere? Pics?

Use 2" galvanized water pipe. I moved my spa from the trailer to my deck with 3 pieces of pipe rolling it like the romans moved things. Once one comes out the back, you put it back under the front and keep going. Did it by myself and no body strains either.

I had one of the coats models in red in the early '80's. It was a PITA to get the tie on / off the rim. Just a powered bead breaker like JBullfrog said. I wouldn't use it for other than factory painted steel rims, it is rough on the rim to break the bead.

Here's one of my '93 after the horseshoe turn at Hallet raceway in Oklahoma at the Mid America Mustang Shelby meet. Turned decent lap time and ran over 135mph on the straights..What a rush...

Stumbled across this site from another of my favorites - Mustangs - in the form of WestSideMustangs. I'm currently working with an architect on a design / build of my garage. Current structure is 1 story, 20 x 24, 2 car garage that is in desperate need of being rebuilt ( had a fire in it before...
