    PSA: Check your garage roof...

    ...for turtles. I saw this last fall and then forgot about it. It was only visible from my deck. I got the ladder and tree trimming pole out today and retrieved it. I assume a hawk or eagle or something lost their grip.

    Garage shop light fixture options

    I know there is a "Best light fixture ever thread", but it hasn't really been about light fixtures for many years. I am building a house. The two main garages are about 1200 and 800 square feet with mostly 10'6" ceiling. Electrical is roughed in for about 30 total direct wire fixtures on 5...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Logical's 2300 sq ft garages with attached home

    This will be a bit of a slow burn, but that's the nature of home building. I'm currently in a 3 BR ranch with 3+ car attached garage, 4 post lift in one bay. I built it about 18 years ago. The garage is wider and deeper than standard and has plenty of room, but with 3 vehicles, mowers...

    Race Ramps & Bendpak mods- first use

    Some background: The 3rd bay in my L-shape 3+ car attached garage has a significant slope. It was somewhat driven by the shape of the garage and getting everything to the same level where the doors (8 ft & 18 ft) exit to the drive apron. I elected to shim to level even knowing it would raise...

    Free Craftsman Sockets

    ALL GONE* I hope this doesn't violate the multiple thread rule. I have an active for sale thread but this doesn't really fit with it. I won't bump it and if it dies a natural death, that's OK. I have been sorting, selling and re-organizing. I am left with a random group of sockets. Some I...

    Backwards Craftsman ratchet

    I'm no expert when it comes to vintage Craftsman tools so I won't be surprised if I'm wrong...... but isn't this "rare ratchet with the lever on the inside" just one where someone got a little distracted and put it back together wrong...
