    Delta Dust Collector

    I ran across a Delta model 50-760 with a cyclone. I think a 2012 per serial number and a 120/240 motor. 1.5 HP. It also has a Oneida Super Dust Deputy with about a 10 gallon Oneida drum. Looks in great shape. I can’t find a similar unit. He wants $700. What ya think? I don’t have a photo. Craig

    Sealing metal roof

    I feel your pain. I had one small leak and that started it all. I had to put in rescue screws (oversized) on my house metal roof. I should be good for another 25 years. It only took 2 days and about 2000 screws. mine were still in pretty good shape as far as the washers but, mostly a few loose...

    Work bench in center of shop pictures?

    I like it. The center table would be for 4x8 stuff. I’m thinking about a new table saw intergraded into a work table on wheels.

    Work bench in center of shop pictures?

    Not really one, but I try to avoid welding inside. (Fire) I’m thinking of a L6-30 on some sorts of SO cord from ceiling. Maybe I need to create a dedicated welding area with hood and exhaust. Just thinking.

    Work bench in center of shop pictures?

    I'm probably going to put my table saw/work table in the center of my shop. I'm looking for pictures of how you did yours. I should have put conduit in the floor but, did not. I need to have a 20 Amp, 30 Amp (welder) and air. Thanks Craig

    Clothing for hot outdoor work

    My tip! I go to the outlet stores. I find retail $50-80 sun/fishing shirts for $12-16. Smith work pants or Wrangler Ripstop pants great. Also, the farm Co-op a good place for deals. I also, have several pairs of work Kakis.

    A/C has always been inadequate for upstairs, and coils freeze often

    You can't just hose cottonwood off. It will need some coil cleaner and hosed inside to outside. I had 20+ cottonwood trees at one time. I had to clean 2x every year. Do you have returns upstairs or returns that might be disconnected somewhere? You need an HVAC geek...really...someone that eats...

    Sub panel passed inspection but, I’m not sure it’s correct.

    Thanks folks for replying to my dead horse question. All good. The buildings are not attached by any metal of any sorts.

    Sub panel passed inspection but, I’m not sure it’s correct.

    I found this today when I was about to connect new outlets. This has been this way 25 years and maybe I’ve been lucky. The inspector passed it way back then. There is a 100 amp panel in the detached garage 50ft from the house. It has 2 hots, 1 neutral from house. (I think #2) There is an earth...

    GFCI outlet at end of run?

    I have vinyl siding and the inside walls are not finished yet. Is there a flush mount box or is a surface mount better on vinyl siding. I’m not concerned about aesthetics. I didn’t find anything at Lowes. I did find a Taymac in use metal cover. Craig

    GFCI outlet at end of run?

    I'm thinking about adding an outdoor outlet on the side of my new shop. The shop outlets are on a 20 Amp gfci breaker. I could connect the last outlet and go though the wall to outside(if OK). Of course using a WR. Is the gfci breaker enough or should I put a gfci outlet outdoors. I would use...

    Lights on Scissor trusses for shop.

    I thought about that for the strip LEDs. I’ve also looked at the round gimbal flush mount LED. I’m not sure how well they will light things up. Craig

    Lights on Scissor trusses for shop.

    I’m starting my LED search. I have 7/12 scissor trusses so they will be at an angle. I want surface or recessed mount lights. I need the height for moving lumber and my tree gear. Yea I’ll have a 12 ft tree for my climbing gear and practice. Will the gimbal or the strip LEDs work better? Any...

    Suggestions for ear muffs

    I just bought a pair. Very comfortable and good noise reduction. Hopefully I don't drop these and run over them!

    Raising a corner of sunken garage 4”, jacks and pour concrete under footer?

    1st of all, I have DIY experience working on houses and 1 garage with that issue. My guess it was a monolithic pour. The low side was probably poured on grade (meaning directly on the ground) based on the photo of the outside wall and the slope of the lot. It probably has reached the compaction...

    Between 265 & 485 SQ/FT Dedicated work shop

    Correct. Careful planning and measuring multiple times. Work backwards. I want the roof to match. That means I have metal, underlayment, roof deck, truss, plates, studs, sill and then concrete. It can be done with ease if you’re willing to do the math or build the trusses/rafters onsite. I...
