    Jackshaft garage door opener?

    I have 2 units in my garage. The only issue I have is that I have a 16ft wide door, and the 8500 sensors have a problem seeing each other when it's bright out. It's a pain, but I can close the door by holding down the button. I haven't spent a ton of time trying to correct it yet. Other than...

    Wet Floor?

    I agree with LegacyIndustrial. You're probably getting moisture wicking up through the slab into your carpet. Is there padding? I hate carpet in a basement.

    Garage height...12 or 14?

    I'd go 14'. I went 12' and I regret it. I built a large storage loft. The extra 2' would be great. Now I have to of hunch over when I'm walking around up there.

    100A subpanel installation questions

    Yes. This was in my house, which was built in the late 1800s. The silver stuff is probably tin plating. It confused me at first too.

    Anyone with a Barndominium? Considering a 2 story with garage underneath.

    My boss is trying to do this with an older wooden building. He's been working on it for 2-3 years so far, and has made almost no progress. He keeps getting blocked by the building inspectors and the town he lives in. I think he's just about given up.

    Question about RustBullet Application

    Went out to check my floor, and there's a mouse stuck in it. Poor little guy is up to his knees. Apparently I've created the world's largest glue trap.

    Question about RustBullet Application

    Never got a response after several attempts. I finally got the replacement Duragrade Clear on Monday. Doing the final coat today. I'm going to scuff up the surface with 150 grit sandpaper and put down the final coat. I did some minor repair work yesterday. I had a few spots where my color...

    Anyone put their workbench on caster wheels?

    OK - I have to ask about the cast iron stove. What do you use that for? I have one in my pole barn that was 'gifted' to my wife as a working stove. When it arrived, it was pretty clear that it had been sitting in someone's back yard for a few years. I've still got it, and I'm trying to figure...

    plumber pricing?

    You literally just described the cause of the 2007 housing meltdown.

    Why not LED?

    I just had a 1 year old LED high bay UFO light fail. There was a 5-year warranty. These were not cheap units. To get it replaced/repaired I have to jump through a bunch of hoops. I have to pay shipping. They will repair or replace at their discretion, and I might not see it for a month...
