    Decent option for $21?

    That completely changes the story. I'm all for fixing an issue to avoid trouble at home inspection. I would put in two of the $21 fixtures, it will wow more than a couple bare bulbs.

    number of nm in a hole

    Allow me to preface my comment - I'm a DIY type, not an electrician. I wired my garage two years ago when I built it. I had it inspected, but our inspectors are fairly lax out here in the county so it is possible a few code violations slipped through. I did not intentionally try to violate...

    Decent option for $21?

    You're selling the place. Throw the old stuff back up. We on this forum are the minority that would base our home purchase on the garage. Most people will not even notice the lights in the garage.

    Rat killing around the shop

    I'm gathering from my context clues that 'Rat killing around the shop' means minor tweaks/fixes to solve annoying problems and improve the work space. Assuming my assumption is correct, I have been killing rats in the shop today. What is the origin of this phrase?

    Awning shadow study - need help, please.

    Trial and/or error. There are a lot of variables that will factor in. I recommend hanging a shade sail (tarp if you don't want to pay the money for a proper sail). Attach it to the house at the desired height. Sink a couple posts in the yard and play around with the mounting point on the...
