    Quincy Vs DeWalt: Battle of 5HP Compressors!

    In the middle of a new build and it’s time to step up to a big boy compressor. I posted earlier about searching for Black Friday deals on 5HP, 60-80 gallon compressors. I haven’t found much but two models have risen to the top of my list: the Quincy 2V41C60VC and the DeWalt DXCMV5048055. The...

    Am I screwed? Garage foundation / pole barn on peat

    My contractor and excavator were out at my property testing the soil for my proposed 30' x 40' pole barn - their findings were not so great. They dug an 8ft hole and I'm told it was peat the whole way - they're not even sure how deep it goes since the machine they brought only went to an 8ft...
