Hoping to stay under $200. I have a 1700 ft² shop with three bays. It used to actually be a service garage And I can't believe there's not one in here already. I will probably start my own small garage in a few years. (Not me, I don't know **** about fixing cars, I'll be hiring a mechanic) So...

I'm located in the upper Midwest where we have fairly rough winters and pretty hot summers. I know very little about these but I think I want to try this in my rental apartment. It is a free-standing structure. Basically it is a stick-built with metal sides and roof. Started out as a two-car...

So far in my brief looking I've found Trex. Don't know much about them yet. I want something durable and low maintenance that's not going to warp and last me 25 years or more. Most of the deck will be in sunlight most of the day. We'll also be doing a stairway.

I bought an '08 chevy malibu and it only has 1 key. No fob either. Ordered the fob but haven't received it. Went to have a spare key made today and the hardware store told me the locksmith would have to do it (or the dealership, but they will charge a lot more) because it takes a special...

We are considering putting this in our basement. Had a bit of water come in to our basement for the first time ever this past week after some torrential rains. No major damage and it was a fluke thing with the amount of rain and a plugged drain that caused water to come through the basement...

n the very early preliminary stages. Quite some ways off from this happening but need input and ideas. We are in a small, rural, mid-west town (about 1,500 people and there are several smaller towns in the same school district that are close by and a town of about 20,000 about 12 miles away)...

Never mind. I had forgotten that I had previously started a thread on this. I completely forgot.

I haven't changed my own oil in years. So, I thought that with my new found interest in becoming more handy, I would start doing this again. So I went to the store and bought the items that I would need to do it.....I also kind of stocked up so I wouldn't have to go shopping again for a...

We have a cabin that we did some remodeling to. There are 2 Decora /rocker switch lights (triple switches) that we put in the dining area that are too deep. The box was mounted too far in and now there is a gap between the switches and the covers. One is really bad. The other isnt as bad but...

How would you recommend installing a shower in the basement that will just drain to a floor drain? I am guessing I would take a stall type shower and elevate it some how so that a drain pipe can have a P trap and the PVC pipe runs to the drain. Any help, or even pics with details on how to...

Actually, it didn't break, I pulled it off at a tailgate as the roaster wasn't fitting in the box that we were carrying everything in and was afraid it was going to break. So I took it off and as would be the case, everything went flying. It was dark and we couldn't find anything but the knob...

It appears i made a big mistake. I bought thresholds to install under my garage door. I had read on Amazon comments and I think even here somewhere, "Use liquid nails instead of the stuff they send you. So I grabbed a couple tubes of LN's that I had laying around and went to town. Welp, it...
