Typical story... got a free spa from a friend. Actuallylooks to be in great shape. I know it's going to be a lot of work and we will probably not use it too much, but my wife wants it so,.... Anyway; Since we're up here in the land of rocks and cows and snow up past your wazoo, I'm thinking of...

This isn't the usual Home Depot stuff, much heavier built that that. I'm trying to set it up but for the life of me I can't figure out how the inverted V-shaped front to back support from the cross pieces goes in. The two in the picture I got in by much beating, swearing and bending. Pretty...

Frosted or clear T-8 LED? I went with Platonic's suggestion of the Green Light Depot Cool White 5K Frosted LED bulbs,( https://greenlightdepot.com/collections/led-tube-lights/products/4ft-18w-led-linear-versa-tube-ul-dlc?variant=3706824580) but they messed up and sent the clear instead of...

I found previous garage owner wired a 220 20a outlet with 14 ga NM wire. It's about 30' from breaker to outlet. Here's the tag on the compressor. Seems to be OK at 15 amps for that distance according to the online wire size calculators. Would you agree it's ok? I'd rather not have to pull new...

I picked up a like-new heater, but it was set up for NG and I have propane. I got the conversion kit from Modine, but there's a spring in the gas valve that needs replacing and adjusting. Has anyone done this or have a suggestion how to set the spring adjustment?

The detached garage is fed from a 50A breaker from the house panel. The incoming hots are the two heavier gauge wires, and the yellow jacketed is the other incoming. They wired a 50A welder outlet right off the incoming lugs (the smaller gauge wires gout out to the left). Is that kosher?? The...

My detached garage isn't far from the house, but I was wanting to install some PoE cameras on the eaves of the house and a maybe 3 in the garage due to its 3 separate bays. Would I need to run 3 Ethernet lines to the garage for the 3 cameras if the recorder is in the house? Or a Ethernet switch...

We bought this house about 3 years ago. The first year when the snow melted it flooded into the garage. Last year there wasn't as much snow and it was a gradual thaw so it almost flooded. Came close. This year we've been hit pretty hard with snow so I expect more flooding. The problem is that...

Looking for a strip LED light, about 3' long that is wired with either a day/night sensor or motion sensor (Both?) for lighting up a stairway unobtrusively. Not battery operated. Something like the attached photo, but it will go on the underside of the trim that runs the length of the stairs...

Howdy. Been a lurker since 2014 when I had a brand-new 30x40 garage with 16' ceiling in AZ. Ended up having to sell and move before I did anything with that garage but back in MN now with a 3-stall with attached workshop. Shop was previously used as wood shop but was stripped when I moved in...
