    Converting Lennox furnace back to Natural Gas

    Any Lennox pros in here? I have a model G43UF-48C-080-03 (90% furnace) that was converted to LP before I got it. Past couple years I've been refilling tanks to run it through the winter. I want to convert it back to Natural Gas again. What is needed?

    Who has them, what did you buy? I work on customer's vehicles in my shop when it's raining or snowing. I also like to park my wet side-by-side in there. Would be nice to contain it.

    Duct sizing

    I have a 3ton AC furnace I've installed in my 30x40 shop. Right now I have ducts under the mezzanine which was just fine for winter but I've got to get the ducts up to the top blowing down since the mezzanine doesn't allow the air to get up top. What size duct would you recommend to get the...

    Bowling Alley Workbench

    I picked up this mobile base six months ago for a 100 bucks off FB Market. It used to hold six 12 head embroidery machines. I used to run one of those machines back in the day and recognized it as soon as I seen it. The guy was amazed when I asked him if that's what it was for. The base is...

    Scored some cool shelves

    Got these pretty cool Write Line locking shelves for $70 from a guy on Facebook. Pretty damn heavy and he had several sets of keys to them. Even the slide out tray modules have a locking cover to them. I'm looking to use then to hold my reloading gear or something. Now I want to find more...

    Lighting under mezzanine

    Trying to get lighting under my mezzanine. Issue is that it's about 7'4" above my head. I bought some single style LEDs but they just still seemed dim. I think it may have been because I just didn't have the distance for the light to fan out. What type and lumens would you recommend? I'd like...

    Gable Fans

    So I've read a few posts that people mention gable fans. I have a 30x40 building. It's pretty hot at first but after a bit my window ACs get it comfortable to work in. It really needs some ventilation in it. Would you put a fan on one side or both sides of the building? Sent from my XT1585...

    Fans for the garage

    So I'm wanting to add fans for the garage to get the air moving. Almost done with the mezzanine. Building is 30x40 with 14'+ ceiling. If you were to put fans in there where would you put them? Just two 60" ones in the middle in the open area? I kind of was thinking about putting some 42" ones...

    Our Huge Auction in Missouri

He also served two tours in Vietnam as a Air Commando Chopper Door Gunner. He will be missed but all must go...

    Cooling a 30x40

    Hey all. What size window units would you recommend to cool my 30x40 building with 14 foot ceilings. It's insulated and has windows on each end of it. My thoughts was to put units in each window for now. Later I'm going to be upgrading my home AC/furnace when we add the addition and move the old...

    Would you block between joists

    A question for you builders. So I'm working on the final back part of my "U" snapped 30x40 mezzanine. The 2x6 joists are only 61" long between the double 11" deep LVLs and double 2x10s. There's going to be 3/4" tongue and groove plywood over it. On my side 7½ wide decks I blocked in the middle...

    Rusted tools

    I brought this rusted 21 piece Pittsburgh 3/4 metric drive set home from moms house. The corner of the front entrance had been leaking and this got some of that damage. How would you go about cleaning these up? They're cheap but might be handy or something that I would let someone use instead...
