    Garage Addition on a Modular Home

    Yeah, I picked it up dirt cheap at $10/random. I don't mind wearing a respirator and wire wheeling the weld zones for that price. I would have preferred hot rolled rectangular tube that was stored indoors, but it was $10/foot. Absolutely not. Just wire wheel as prep. The cleaner was in a bin...

    Been putting in way too many hours labeling drawers and cleaning tools: Picked up some steel rectangular tubing from a buddy to build work benches, basically building them very similar to the axle cart, but more than 8 inches off the ground: Also, buddy talked me into hitting the...

    Garage Addition on a Modular Home

    I have the boxes temporarily positioned so I can access every outlet. The only I don't like is they stick out way into the area where I park my truck. I am thinking about pushing them into the center but it will cover up one outlet, not really a big deal.

    Garage Addition on a Modular Home

    That's real nice, looks like a 2013. I mentioned to my wife the idea of getting rid of ours and getting a new unlimited to build, but she's completely against it. Solely because she says I'll just destroy the body and make the whole change pointless. Picked up the last box at the harbor freight...

    I made it to Harbor Freight before work today and picked up three of the four 56" US General tool cabinets that I was after. I'll have to hit the other store for the last. I found the coupon to get the bottom box for $699 in the hot deals thread. Literally using this forum saved me $200. GJ...

    Garage Addition on a Modular Home

    House HVAC Well, my central air unit stopped working properly last year and since this project was starting, I decided to put off servicing it. Nearly a year later, I decided I was better off getting the old out and replacing them with newer more efficient model's. Even got a great price. Old...

    Finally some forward progress worth posting. After four mornings of waking up and painting, the framework for the overhead garage doors is finally done: Took this pic from the road earlier in the week, thinking about cutting down the bradford pear trees: And finally, the inspector showed...
