    Been shopping around for a four-post lift, and Bendpak is the only brand with one narrow enough to fit in the location i need it. Anyway, as y'all know, they need a compressor to disengage the locks to lift the platform. Trying to decide on a compressor for this. I know ANYTHING will work as...

    Washing cars in garage... waterproof paint or plastic curtain?

    Giving some thought to this, as I have a garage with a drain, and enough room to wash my car. Has anyone used waterproof/water resistant paint on sheetrock walls? Is it an effective option? Or would you get a plastic curtain setup, that you can slide out of the way when not in use...

    Exterior sliding barn/shed door... how to lock?

I don't just want to use old stuff for the look of...

So, we found this house with a great backyard. We finished the pool project last fall (started it right away), and we...

    Shed on existing concrete slab

    I've got an existing 6'x12' concrete slab next to my house that's just screaming for a shed to be placed upon it. I'm actually building a much more aesthetically pleasing workshop/poolhouse on the property, and I'll toss some pics up in the gallery. (That one is bigger, but still only 14x16 --...
