    Roofing Question - Ice and Water

    The intersection between the roof and a dormer, should the ice and water be rolled up the wall 5-6"? My roofer said the ice and water (he is using GAF Stormguard 2.0) says it doesn't roll in a corner and will not let the step flashing sit right. He said he would put ice and water over the stop...

Any size I go with I plan on going with a bedroom and bathroom above for guests. The last house we had I was...

    Blast Cabinet Media

    I picked up a Skat Blast 850 cabinet. What media are you using? I have read through a few of the threads on here and the TPC media. I was thinking of swinging by Tractor Supply and picking up the Black Beauty slag, but see they have the 20/40 (fine) and 40/80 (medium). I have a Ingersoll Rand...

    DeVilbiss Compressor

    SOLD to a garage journal member I have a 1940's DeVilbiss compressor for sale. It is 20-25 gallons, 120volt, and quiet. It takes about 6 minutes to pressure about to 80psi. It goes up higher, you just have to adjust it. I never did, but I figured out how to. The tank is worth the price...

    Devilbiss Compressor - 1940's

    Mac Tech 1000 box

    I previously posted about looking for a used Snap On or Mac box for around $1,000. I found a new Tech 1000 box and the owner was asking for $1800 and told me he wouldn't accept anything less than $1500, but after a month and a half told me he would accept my offer of $1,000. Do you think the...

    Choosing a tool box - Matco, Mac, Snap On

    I have been looking for a 40" wide roller cabinet to replace my older narrow Craftsmen. I am thinking of spending a few more dollars than a new Craftsment or Kobalt so I can get something that will last a long time. I am trying to spend around $800. So far, I missed a good deal on a Mac Tech...
