I need two- 2 foot pieces (18" would work too) of rectangle steel tubing that are 1 3/4" x 2 3/4" to fit inside some 2x3 rectangle tube. Striking out online! It can be 1/8 wall, 3/16, or 1/4 not critical at all. Is this even a thing, or will I need to cut and weld some tubing down?

Need a sanity check on a proposed plumbing layout for my house. I am fixing a basement bathroom (already installed the ejector pit and under slab drains) that used to drain out to the tank but had to nix that drain line for a French drain system (part of my basement saga.) I am also turning two...

I bought a front wheel drive bearing kit from Harbor freight, and it uses a 7/8 bolt for the forcing screw. I want to get a thrust bearing to make everything last longer than the washers, but all I can find are 3/4 thrust bearings. Anyone know where to get a thrust bearing for fit 7/8 bolt...

So I am replacing my house service entrance. Its currently overhead but the meter is in the carport and the main breaker panel is a mess. I am going to bury my service.. And the wire that's in there isn't rated for 200A and there are two wires on each main lug. It looks like 1/0 copper and 2/0...

So I bought a new home with a detached pole barn, 24x30. Seems awesome until you can't sweep the floor because the oil stains are so bad they stop your broom. Was thinking lots of cat litter for a few weeks ground in. Maybe acetone poured on top? I can move things out to make it happen. This...

So, the wife wants shutters on the pole barn. Standard vertical rib steel, the ribs are 3/4" tall and spaced 7" between them. We have the shutters, just vinyl black regular house shutters. I am trying to figure out how to mount them. The corners do not land on the high points of the ribs nor...

Really weird problem. I have four different circuits controlled by four different breakers that are running ceiling can lights with Euri retrofit LED lights installed. 4000k color. Each set of lights in different rooms are on Lutron dimmers. Problem is, i can go in one room and turn on the...

So I am installing pocket doors in my house, and need to add lights. I have new work boxes that will work in the pocket framed walls, just need some switches for the lights and fans. Anyone know of something out there? Most of what I have seen requires a neutral wire, I am looking for truly...

Got power completed to the meter today, so I will be running my electric service this weekend into my building. Looking at the new codes, it looks like I have to use AFCI breakers almost everywhere for 15 and 20 A except the kitchen and bath and other wet locations, where I will use GFCI...

Good Morning all, I am getting ready to install my new main breaker panel and feed from the meter to the panel. Meter is about 75' away from panel, and will be buried in the ground. If I am understanding everything correctly, I need a 4/0 aluminum cable from the meter to the panel. 3...

Good Morning Everyone, My project is finally off the ground and running! We closed on the construction loan last week and put in a deposit with a local builder the other day. Ground breaks in about 6 weeks, and building starts at the middle to end of June. Wife and I are going to build this...

I am about to start a 40x64 barn that will be 10' 4" to the bottom of the truss. A 25 foot wide section will become a 1000 sqft living area with 40x40 left for my shop. My question is, with 8 foot truss spacing, what is the best way to add beams in between to attach the ceiling in the living...

Looking to build a 40x60 with a 600 square foot apartment in it. This would leave me a 30x40 section and a 20x30 section open, like a big L shape. Has anyone done something like this and would you recommend it or not? I would live in it a few years until we build a home.
