    How do you store bulky/odd sporting goods?

    Kiddo will be 2 soon and things like balls, frisbees, etc that will be used outdoors are going to be stored in the garage. What methods have worked well for you guys to keep things easy to access but organized?

    Ever had to take your wall(s) apart?

    I'll be putting 1/2" OSB on the walls of my shop soon. Nailing seems like the obvious choice, and by far the fastest/easiest, but I'm thinking about using screws to attach the OSB (at least in some specific areas) so that it can be removed without too much hassle. Is that way overthinking it...

    Help me choose a mini split

    I've got a 32x48x10 pole barn that I'm mostly done framing, and ready to finish insulating, but figured I needed to plan out a mini split layout first. Location: Central Indiana. Temps range from sub-zero to triple digits. Building details: 32x48x10, but I have scissor trusses, so the peak of...

    Any handy tips for mixing large quantities of paint/epoxy/etc?

    I've got 6 gallons of Polyurea that I need to mix thoroughly to ensure consistent color across my floor. Then, I get to do the same for my topcoat to make certain the anti skid is evenly distributed. I thought I might just buy a couple of cheap trash cans, but I might as well ask the...

    A question for those with white floors

    Would you Choose white if you had the chance to do it again? How's it holding up? I'm ready to pull the trigger on a solid color Polyurea floor coating. I'm torn between a white floor or gray. My heart wants white, but my brain is saying that gray might make more sense. White is striking and...

    Anybody have experience with encapsulated crawlspaces?

    We'd like to have ours done at some point. We plan to live in our current home for another 20 years or so which makes the cost more tolerable. We haven't gotten any quotes yet, but are expecting it to be "not cheap" based on some research. We live in central Indiana, so we see cold winters and...

    Best crack filler for exposed aggregate?

    My front porch has a long, narrow crack that I'd like to fill and hopefully prevent further damage from freeze/thaw cycles. It's fine enough that it's easily missed if you're not looking for it, so grinding it out or filling with backer rod, etc isn't an option. I've got some Legacy Extreme Set...

    Protecting freshly ground slab during the winter?

    So, it seems like I've run out of warm working weather before I could get my floor coated. It's a fresh slab about 4 months old, and it's looking more and more like I used the last of the warm days last week to grind it in preparation for coating. I need to park a couple of vehicles and mowers...

    How would you keep cellulose off of these lights?

    Hey everyone, I'll be blowing in some cellulose insulation above my ceiling in the next couple of months. I've installed LED troffer lights (2ft x 4ft), and I'd like to keep the cellulose from sitting directly on top of the lights, or possibly falling through any small gaps. I still want to...
