Does any one have any experience with this company? The lifts are certified and they provide a 2 year warranty on parts, 5 years on the structure and lifetime on the cylinder Thanks, Lou http://www.liftsuperstore.com/products/4-post-lifts/item/3-4-post-lifts/58-quatro-stacker-xl-9000-lbs

I am looking to pull the trigger on one of these lifts but I have a question. The lift is supported by a "latchbar weldment". This looks to me to be a thin metal plate that hangs from a bolt. The latchbar fits in to openings on the plate. How well does this support the lift? I saw the lift...

Yep, time to beat that horse again. I am thinking of buying either the Menards Sanborn® 3.7 hp Belt Drive 60-Gallon compressor Model Number: SL3706056 or the NorthStar 3 HP, 60-Gallon Vertical Tank Item# 47500. As best I can tell, the units differ in the warranty (Menards 2 yr, NS 4 years)...

Does anyone have experience using supratile? It looks very nice and I like their leather finish. It doesn't need to be glued down and is somewhat flexible. The only concern I have is tire staining and imprints from a 4 post lift. I would appreciate any comments if you have used it. Thanks...

Does anyone know of a program to help plan the layout of a tile floor? I need something that will allow me to change the color and size of the tiles and move the tiles around on the basic floor plan. Thanks for any help. Lou

We just competed building a brick mailbox at our house. I have a pole mounted light that matches our other outdoor lights. How do I mount the light on the granite cap over the mailbox. I have seen other lights like this installed on caps but I can't find a mounting box for one. Thanks, Lou

The drywallers will be in tomorrow to finish the walls in the garage. I am looking for ideas on painting the walls. The room is 22" X 32" and the cathedral ceiling goes up to 16'. I like the idea of 2 tone walls with a stripe separating the colors. I am thinking of maybe painting the walls in...

I am plumbing the bathroom in the new garage. I will have a toilet and one sink. Can I use 1 1/2" DWV piping? I plan to go up the wall, over the headers and then down, venting through the soffit. Is that acceptable or must I go out the roof? The outlet would be about 11 - 12' above the ground...

I never bought from Woot before so I thought I would try an item I found on this board that looked to be a great deal. I completed the purchase online with no problem and left on a trip. My card was charged and all appeared well. I came home and received an email that I had successfully...

I am getting ready to wire the outside lights on the garage using 2 switches. I have several diagrams on how to wire the switches in different combination but not the way I need to do it. I am going from the panel to switch 1, then light, then next light, then switch 2 then last light. Any...

I am ready to get the breaker panel for my garage. I want Square D but would like to know the difference between the QO and Homeline equipment. The Homeline is about half the price, but is the quality there? I am planning on a 200 amp box but probably will never get anywhere close to the much...

My new garage is getting close to electrical time. Because of the vaulted ceiling I am trying to to avoid over head wiring as much as possible. At the last minute I did manage to get a few 3/4" conduits placed in the floor to strategic areas. My plan is to pull THHN wires to a junction/outlet...

I have been planning to plumb the bathroom in the new garage to our existing septic system. Because of the distance involved I am beginning to think that may not be the best solution. I have also learned that adding to the system requires that the system be brought up to current standards. Any...

They are supposed to start the excavation for the new garage Wednesday or Thursday. I have a couple of questions I hope I can get answered here. I am planning to do a porcelain floor in part of the garage and just a sealer in the other part. 1. What kind of finish should they do on the floor -...

It seems to me that maybe these names for flooring tile seem to be used interchangeably. What is the difference in these two types of tiles and which is better to use on a garage floor, and why? Thanks, Lou

I am planning to tile the floor in my new garage. How do I bring the drain up flush to the top of the tile? Do I need to do anything special when I have the floor poured? Thanks, Lou
