Correct.

vavet, you are correct, the current warranty company we are with (2-10 Home Warranty... which has horrible reviews and has been difficult as hell to deal with... stay away!) did jack up our rates, almost double, if we want to renew. I wouldn't go back with them anyway though even if we were to...

We will need another unit there is no doubt but if $500 gets us another 3 years out of it as opposed to us having to drop $5K this year, then to me it was worth it. Just like extended auto warranties, they're a gamble... one that worked out in our favor this go around. I'm just trying to...

txst, thanks for the info. I got word yesterday afternoon that our evap coil finally came in and the techs will be out on Sat. to install it. So I'm definitely going to pick their brains about the overall condition of the unit and what they'd recommend when they are there. Trey T, I presume...

So this question is actually in regards to the unit for the downstairs of our house but there seem to be some knowledgeable folks on this forum in regards to HVAC stuff so I thought it couldn't hurt to ask. But we have a Rheem gas pack (may not be correct terminology... one unit contains both...

Re: Photobucket Just Screwed Me Real Hard You can download them but you can no longer share them. And if you have a decade worth of photos linked from PhotoSuckIt then they've got you by the balls to the tune of $400/yr!!!

Re: Photobucket Just Screwed Me Real Hard I got screwed by these ***-hats as well. My build thread of a little more than a year pales in comparison to some of the folks on here but it's still aggravating as hell. And I have car forums where I have linked images on from PB over a decade ago...

Yes he does, lol. And thanks!

Thanks big_bake. And no updates worth posting about really. Most of what I've been doing as of late is just organizing cabinets. But in general things have been more slow going than they were before since my wife and I had our second child 7 weeks ago. Kids sure do put a damper on your free...

Nothing too overly exciting lately but I did fill the above cabinet with lots of stuff. I also built some natural area boxes along the side of the garage and added some bushes/plants and a pencil holly to hide my electrical conduit. And just today I finally installed some shutters on the side...

Thanks for consolidating such build threads. I'm taking a look at many of them as we speak. You can add mine to your list if you like. It certainly fits the criteria... neighborhood, 3-4 detached, dealing with HOA, etc, http://garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=321568

Yeah, sadly I am sure there will be plenty more scratches on the floor. But the more stuff I get in there the more any imperfections are "hidden." That's the other reason I like the flakes, they help hide stuff like that. But they also help hide things you drop on the floor as well, lol. No...

Thanks tfb. As for the joists, I don't know if this will mean anything to you, I'm just reading it from the plans, but they are category 4 BCI 60's. They are 16" deep with a flange that is 2-5/16" wide and 1-1/2" tall. And I believe they are 19" or 20" on-center but that's going off memory...

So a few more little things got done over the last couple of weekends. I finally moved my tool boxes and one of my heavy duty work benches up to the detached. And then I added another set of smaller cabinets above that work bench. I still need to buy and put some handles on them though. In...

Thanks. And I am nearly certain my eave overhang and fascia height are what you mentioned... 12" and 6" respectively. If you really want to know for sure I can measure it this weekend and get back to you. And FWIW having the rear door on the garage has been great. I haven't really used it...

First, thanks for the compliments guys. The garage will mostly be for car related projects/things. From general maintenance to my long term goal is to have a "project car." Which might include something as simple as new suspension on a toy car or maybe as involved as building a Factory Five...

So I've had this base cabinet, counter top and sink around for months, mostly just in my way, and I finally got it all fully installed last weekend! The only things I have left to do are glue and trim the end caps onto the counter top and then paint the bottom molding. The cabinets are nothing...

This is a photo taken before drywall and paint but it will at least give you an idea of what I am working with. As you can see, this isn't a super tight/confined spaced specifically designed to enclose my compressor. It's just an area that was going to be hard to easily use for much else so I...

Per that spec sheet it says it has a density of 21-25 lb/cuft. I'm guessing the variance is either due to manufacturing variances and/or variances in moisture content depending on environment. Either way that should make a 4x8 sheet weigh 28 - 33 lbs.

Thanks guys. I will definitely consider using the Roxul as well.
