I have been Debating if/how about putting a bathroom in my shop. I do not have enough fall to get it to my septic system naturally so I would have to have a pump. A guy I know recently had a pipe bored in and has a little pump in his shop. Anyone have any thoughts, opinions, ideas? The...

I thought I had a free 8x7 garage door to go between shop and cold storage side. That appears to have fell through. Now I wish it was bigger but too late to change. I got quotes on a door and they’re basically all $1600-$2000. Higher than I expected. It needs to be a vertical lift, or lift...

I am putting up 6 ft of 3/4 plywood on my shop walls and then metal above it all the way to the ceiling. Is their something I should use to transition between the two? I will obviously have J channel at the ceiling. Was sure if I wanted that at the bottom though? Seems like it’ll just be...

I've been looking for a new horizontal band saw. I found a good deal on a wellsaw 1118. The guy said it was single phase.....my wife picked it up for me.....it is 3 phase. I am pretty good at electrical work but know nothing about 3 phase. Do I just look for a motor with similar specs as the...

I have been looking for a decent band saw. I found a barely used wellsaw 58bd 1.5 hours away. Looks like they $4000+ new. opinions on this saw and what do you think a fair price would be? I was hoping to get something decent for 600-800. i know ill be over that number but may still consider.

What’s my best option for this extra line length? Pioneer says 10 ft is the minimum but can go as low as 5 but may have to remove some refrigerant. I am guessing if I would shorten I would need about 7ft. I have a void in the wall with wasted space directly behind the indoor unit. I could...

I bought a pioneer mini split for a bar room in my shop. The outside unit is getting mounted on the other side of the wall in my “cold storage”….unfixed up side of the shop. I know this isn’t how I should do it but there is a 20x18 that overhead right next to it and it’s what I’m going to do...

My live edge bar top isn’t as wide as I wish it was. I need something to finish the back and maybe inside with that’s thin….1/4”ish. Maybe black in color? Suggestions.?

I put a bar room inside my shop. I should have probably done this sooner but didn't. I am almost done with it. I want to clean the floor good with something before putting the trim up. Their is probably a little grease/oil residue.....tire marks....general dirt....etc. Any suggestions what...

I am working on a friends snowmobile. Mice got into it. One short wiring harness got destroyed and we are going to replace it. Another one has one wire that they chewed about half the coating off for about an inch. This is a pretty big harness so we aren't going to replace it. anyone have...

I am putting up some rusty metal barn siding. I need to cut about 20 - 6.25” holes for lights. Will a hole saw work for this? Is there a better option?

I need a few doors for a bar room inside my shop and also a closet. I will probably use exterior doors so they’re insulated some and seal up good from dust and stuff inside the shop. Menards….lowes….else wear???? I want something that will last but feel like they will have an easier life...

Anyone have experience or opinions with these? I am strongly considering one instead of something that runs off LP. I feel like I could have my money back in a few years.

I found this cabinet for sale locally. It has a dink or two on the side and a small amount of surface rust. The drawers and everything seem to work fine though. $200 would be a no-brainer right????

I am working on lights in a “bar” room. It is 20x24. The ceiling is rusty metal and the walls will be primarily gray. The lights I have are 12w and around 875 Lumen. How many would you suggest in a room like this or what would be an adequate foot candle amount to go for? I don’t want it to...

I am working in a bar room. I have the electric mostly done. I need to run some cat 6 to tvs. I’m also putting in a home theatre system with some keypads and stuff for different zones that is controlled through network cable. How careful do I have to be with running this stuff next to romex?

I have a shop and a nice little bar room I am slowly making progress on. I am working on the electric inside the bar room. I have a couple outlets planned where I think I may put a tv. What's everyone's thoughts on additional TV related stuff? Would it be smart to run any sort of Network...

I am slowly progressing on my shop. I have a 20x24 “bar” room inside of it. I want some sort of can style light inside or something resembling a can light for lighting. What’s the best route to go? I’m over whelmed with all the led options and stuff…..

We bought an older farm house 2 years ago. Our garage doors are all giving us issues. Initially the door my wife used quit opening with the remote. This is an older genie brand opener. I changed battery’s and messed with it. Thought it was fixed and it quit again. I bought a new remote...
