There ya go. I have a buddy who has a 42" LED TV & like 3 brackets. One in his garage, one on the patio by the hot tub & BBQ, and one on the side of his RV. That TV gets used all the time, no matter where is at or what he's doin!!

The recessed storage for the bikes & SUP & the additional board racks turned out great! Looks like you need some more for the wakeboard & wakeskate too. On the butcher block idea, I have a friend who made a conference table out of a bunch of 2x4s. The top is planed & sanded smooth so it looks...

Drawers are in pretty good shape, inside and the sliders. I drilled out & removed the old lock years ago. 1973, huh. Crazy -Bill

I didn't realize I had a collectible here. Used to be my old man's. I've had it for over 30 years. -Bill

Hehehe, that's awesome! So funny. Cool place. Good thing it doesn't get cold there. Would be tough to heat. - Bill

I painted 3 decks on our house with it 3 years ago. All 3 decks see lots of sun, rain & snow. 3 yrs later, there is like 2 places that have worn or chipped thru to the wood. It looks good. Has good non-skid properties. And has worked better than anything else I've ever painted a wood deck or...

Hehe, thanks drmarkr. -Bill

Yup, agreed. Looks like a fun place to live. Considering the arguments against this sort of home in other threads, it would be interesting to hear if a bank financed it or what kind of zoning hurdles the builder went through. -Bill

You will probably have to lift a corner at a time. Then place a jack stand under there & move to the next corner.

Very cool. More & more of these type buildings being setup here on GJ. So what kind of plans are you planning? 25x50 is about 1250 sq ft. Is this all on the ground floor? Will you have an upper level? Heated floors? Where are you located? Hope to see more pics of your place. Subscribed!

I've been thinking about this a bit & came up with 3 other guys I've known who lived in apartments over a shop. First guy was a Toyota mechanic. He had several toys in the shop, including a lifted V8Landcruiser & a dragster. The apartment was upstairs & definitely smelled like a shop. It...

Geez, wet blankets is right. The guy has a dream. Doesn't sound so stupid to me. Maybe his grandpa left him some land. He could put up a pole building now for pretty reasonable price. Include living space in it. Do projects in it. Even run a business in it. Then if/when he gets married, build a...

I have a friend who owns what he calls a "shophouse". It's like a 60' x 120' pole building that is an open shop on one end, and then the other end is a 2 story, 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo... around 1200 or 1300 sq ft. The interior & exterior of the pole building is done up like a regular house, ie...

Build a tripod over the opening into the attic. Secure a hoist to the top of the tripod to lift it thru the opening (cheap HF chain hoists work great & lift a ton). Then dismantle the tripod.

This is basically what I did. A few exceptions... or upgrades. I used 2x6s for everything, legs, the framed structure & the bench surface itself (it's basically built like you would build a deck). The back is bolted to the concrete wall behind it. Plus I stuck a sheet of masonite on the top with...

Thanks, definitely helps. Looks like most of the fault commands are in the Actions menu. I didn't even see the things in the Settings..... engine displacement, weight, etc. Maybe I'll get to go mess with it some more later.

Thanks KO, I'm still using the Torque Lite version, just checking it out & will certainly buy the real version if it's all that. I can get the dongle & the phone to connect without any problem. And when I have the truck running I can see things like RPMs, speed, air/fuel mixture, etc. This is...
