    300mhz 9 Dip Switch Old School Remote Source?

    Have an older gate opener with a 9 dip switch (no learn button/rolling code) at 300mhz that I am trying to source a compatible remote for, preferably keychain. Upgrading to a newer receiver is not an option as it would mess with other tenants in the building (rental), but I cannot find a 9 dip...

    Closed Cell Backer Rod for Control Joint Filler Before SikaFlex?

    Sounds good, this basically covers what I was wondering. I know there is the intended performance and then what actually happens. Our control joints are ~1/2"ish at the radius'd top edge, roughly 5/8-3/4" deep max. I'm not worried about a caster getting stuck in the groove, but rather the weight...

    Closed Cell Backer Rod for Control Joint Filler Before SikaFlex?

    Got the floor of our new 1200SF shop sealed, now its time for joint filler. We have a grid of troweled control joints (mono-poured the garage slab, only expansion joint with an actual air gap and expansion joint material is between shop floor and driveway), and will probably use sikaflex for the...

    Heavy Duty (2k lbs+ each) hydraulic wheel dollies? Anyone find some?

    Getting close to finishing our new shop, which will be more of a project space and less of a machine space, as well as storage for our boat and 1-2 trucks. In order to move things tight when needed, I'd like to get some hydraulic wheel dollies to jack up the vehicles and move them around. The...

    Slab Crack Control Lines - Scored or Sawcut?

    10-4 thanks guys and I will have to check out that article. Lift is "unlikely" but we are thickening a section just in case for future. Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using Tapatalk

    Radiant Floor Heat Basics, California

    10' walls, hopefully cathedral ceilings in front and also maybe in the back. Lift would be ideal although for the uses we have planned it might limit our space a bit, the building would be bigger but this was the limit by zoning. We do have another 20*30 building with the machinery, that heats...

    Slab Crack Control Lines - Scored or Sawcut?

    Anyone have a preference? We are hopefully getting started on grading for our new 1200 SF shop building in the next week or so, but that has not been decided. The space is a 30x23 "front" with a 22x23 stub out the back-right, so an L shape. Purpose will be storage for our boat, 1-3 trucks/toys...

    Radiant Floor Heat Basics, California

    Living in Northern California near SF, temperatures are not usually a huge concern. That said, cold slabs are not fun to work on. My parents are building a new shop space, a 1200SF L-shaped building w/ a 30x23 front and 23x22 "back" section. We are still unsure if we want to do in-floor heat...

    Things to consider/add/plan for during new shop build?

    My parents are building a new shop building shortly, will be L-shaped with a 23 deep by 30 wide "front" and a 23 x 20 stub on the back. Purpose will be storage for our 21' wakeboard boat, my truck, and various project space. The plan right now is for the front portion to have a ridge beam...

    Intersecting Ridge Beam Framing Question? Fully open vaulted ceilings?

    No tile roof (asphalt shingles to match existing). Definitely good with connectors to keep them at the same ridge height. Actually a CE, I just haven't touch any engineering anything since I left school and timber is very lightly covered. Guestimates on how deep the beams would be (ROM)? I've...

    Intersecting Ridge Beam Framing Question? Fully open vaulted ceilings?

    My parents are looking at building another shop/storage building and we are throwing around ideas for the roof framing. Having never done this type before (but seen it in other circumstances, I think) - is it possible to have two intersecting ridge beams with rafters (no trusses) so that the...
