Fellas this is odd. I just finished grinding my floor, it is HARD. I did 900 sf in my shop the other day with the same wheel, and knocked it out in about 8 hours. I am 4 hours into this floor an have only covered about 300 SF and it is working me to death. Anyhow after I started vaccuming up...

There has to be something on this, but I have searched to no avail, if you know of a thread please re-direct......... I've seen several posts on here that have baseboards done using epoxy when applying the floor. I want to do the same, and lip mine up the first row of block, question is: How...

I would like to go this route, but they are SOOO long. For a 3/4" Bolt, they are 6-1/2" Long. This would leave a 1/2" sticking through the bottom of my slab. Any other EPOXY options as far as female anchors are concerned? Based on the strengths I am tempted to turn the bottom rung off of...

Getting ready to build some shelves that run the full length of my shop walls (30') I was just curious what heights, and widths you have used in yours? I am debating on 16" vs 24" wide. 16" will let a tote sit sideways, and not project out to far into the work space. Height is also a...

I just bought my dust collector and I am about to start plumbing it. My question is regarding the fitting sizes. I see a lot of guys using pvc, which is what I plan to use, but will a 4" dust collector fitting such as this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0000223YR/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I just...

I need a piece to vent an exhaust fan, and I really hate to have to buy a 25 or 50' piece when I only need 6'.......

I own a Dixie Chopper, it has a 27HP Generac engine. AND IT IS LOUD. I want to take the stock muffler off and replace it with something really quiet from motorcycle or something. Any advice where to start?

I have slowly been switching over to LED's. I purchased some GE floodlights and have used them about 6 months. They are dimming down and flickering on and off. It is making me hesitant to replace more.

Fellas, I did my storage room last weekend. I used rustoleums anti-skid, and colorchips flakes. This weekend I was placing base board, and noticed quite a few places where either the anti skid balled up, or the flakes got turned up on edge and "wicked" the epoxy up creating small knots. The...

I dug up some old threads, it seemed they weren't to popular during those. The threads were several years old. I was wondering if thye have gained in popularity since. Here is the one I am looking at...

I have put down "wet look" acrylic sealers over some tile before. Saw someone use it and thought it looked like a good idea. Well the issue is they tend to flake off of the smooth tile. Every year, I clean and reseal my shower floor and walls. It is a pain. I am looking for something to...

Okay fellas, after reading all the posts on here I could find, I decided to go with OSB for the interior walls, followed by a high solids primer. I decided against Kilz oil based due to the fumes and mess, I don't mind some bubbles from the OSB lifting so far I have 2-coats of Zinsser 1-2-3...

I need a thermostat that I can set below 40F. I just want to keep my shop warm enough through winter not to freeze to save on the heat bill. I have a wifi which will drop to 40F. It is great, I can get up, turn the heat on from a remote location and don't have to go into a cold shop. So have...

West Virginia Climate. Warm summers, cold winters, and humid. Roof is 2x8 purlins, 24" oc with R30 fiberglass. So, I starred insulation last week in the roof. Over the last three years no condensation, ever, period. Got half the insulation in, and we had a frost this morning. Out of...

Background: Went home, house was hot, Thermostat was on cool, Air Handler was blowing warm air. I checked the coolant lines, they weren't cold. Went outside and checked the heat pump, it was dead. Pulled the cover, the LED monitor referred me to an "open circuit". I checked the capacitor...
