Bare minimum . . . get INSULATED door that is middle tier or higher. Buying bare steel garage door is absolute waste of money. Garage door companies are somewhat "regional" as they have manufacturing locations around the country so they don't have to ship them everywhere, which would run up...

Also, you won't find any compressors or wiring that is 220v . . . . . . . . . . now everything is standardized on 240v in 'Merica !! ;)

^ ^ ^ What is the fill time for 80 gal from empty ??

+1 for NONE of the above . . . . way too much money for medium-sized compressor. Better to purchase low cost "starter" compressor like $100 twin tank 4 gal oil-splash DeWalt, Hitachi, Husky, Campbell Hausfeld, Craftsman, etc. Or SpeedAire 20 gal horizontal tank, even older Craftsman...

Definitely do not want it overfull. I'd say run it at middle oil level until it gets to full operating temperature for a while. Then check it next day after it fully cools off. Brand new Champion oil in nice Champion 80 gal compressor . . . . . . . . . . I'd say you're LIVING GOOD ...

^ ^ ^ This. OP you'll get the most usable space, and can recycle the exterior sheeting on the new expanded wall.

Just saw video on YouTube that with . . . . . . . 2 open end wrenches . . . you can break most any padlock !! ;)

OP . . . . does your design allow for a TALLER door ??? If so, I'd go with the TWO doors, but make one Taller. Nothing more frustrating that having a nice big garage built, and you can NOT get your camper in the garage because of air conditioner on the roof. I'd never settle for just a 8 ft...

^ ^ ^ ^ You are . . . Plvmb sick . . . . in a Goooood way !!! :thumbup:

OP . . . . you . . . . ARE . . . in OKLAHOMA !!!! :D . . :thumbup: . . ;) What the hell are you doing using Electricity for a dryer ????? You should be using a . . . wait for it . . . . . NATURAL GAS . . . . dryer !! Heck, you can get subsidy from Okla Natural Gas to assist in purchase of NG...

You did WELL there OP . . . . $50 for "no name" Wilton bullet !!! :thumbup: I'd say that's borderline YOU **** territority. Recommend the classic verde green or light blue for those Wiltons as shown in the GJ Vises thread. Good luck in restoring your vise. The jaws look to be excellent or...

As usual . . . . Royce has stunned we GJer's with another creation !! :thumbup: . . :beer: . . :thumbup: Just an Alaska stepstool . . . . small 3 legged to "kick" around as needed !! :bounce:

+1 for subpanel in your attached garage. SBerry has it covered above.

Beautiful shop you've got OP . . . . especially like the office on left & shop doors on right! :thumbup: Curious what your heating/cooling plans might be ?? Is your electrical feed on the right side outer wall ? . . . I'd rather have that in office. Did you plan for beefed up concrete pads...

OP . . . by what you've posted, sounds like you're in Canada . . . . . . . likely in the city with 22'x22' attached garage. UPDATE GJ Profile with a Location. That small of space could be heated with electric 240v that is left on all winter to keep at reasonable temperature . . . ie 40 to 50...

Well OP you've now got an instant Oil Can collection . . . . NICE !! :thumbup: Remember grandma/grandpa every time you use them.

x10000 on keeping them BOTH !! :thumbup: Use one while you're restoring the other . . . if required. However, if you must dump one, I'll drop by to pickup the SnapOn !! :D

+1 for the compression fittings. City just redid entire neighborhood with new water main and removed copper under street that fed houses. Blue poly was the new 1" sub pipe that gets me my water. All the guys need to connect was ratchet and socket. No, No, NO to barb fittings along with the...

^ ^ ^ I miss that show. :sad: Always funny and thought receptionist was cute !!

I'm still getting $10 off $50 or $15 off $100 . . . . . . . just got a $5 off clothes . . . . also recently a $10 off $30 from K-Mart. The "trick" I've learned to using those instant Surprise Points is click on the Shop Now when Sears emails the offers. Then pick some stuff for cart and see...
