I have to agree with the others that said Nest. I have been with them for 6 years now (since they were known as Dropcam). I have been very pleased with them. They have been overall very reliable and the video is high quality.

Every cat we have ever had has chosen us. People always seem to pick a farm to drop them off at, usually instead of having them spayed or neutered. There are always lots of nice animals at the local shelter as well!

I did an “emergency” brake job on my truck. My wife has been using it to trailer her horses around and I don’t drive it as often as I used to. It was metal to metal. She plans on taking it again in the morning!

+1 on this. I have had my Dropcam (now Nest) for a couple years now. I've never had any problem. Video is saved for a week and it will notify me immediately if there is any motion or sound (if I want it to).

I have had one since 1999. I loved it for many years because we had an unlimited supply of good firewood, and I was healthy enough to cut it. We have a cold climate. I would estimate that I burned approximately 50 face cord of wood usually cut 24 to 30 inches long. It was A LOT of work...

Bob, We're right on the St Lawrence River. About as far north as you can get in NY.

I have really enjoyed this thread. Thanks for sharing!

Welcome from a fellow New Yorker.. I'm not sure what kind of prefabs are available to you, but be sure to check out the garage gallery here. It's loaded with an abundance of great ideas. Good luck!

Great job! I look forward to following your progress as it continues.

That's great looking work! I look forward to seeing it finished. Thanks for sharing.

Look at that! I may have found a use for some of my Chinese wrenches! But seriously, very clever. Great idea!

I built a shop out of green lumber. It's 32x36 with two floors. Believe it or not, it was framed with white oak. An old neighbor of mine had a misunderstanding with a logger, and he thought he was going to get veneer prices for all of the oak he cut. After he found out the logger was only...

Initial first aid is usually accomplished with paper towels, just because they are usually near by. Then, if needed, I'll reach for band-aids (I prefer the cloth ones) or super glue.

I guess i would have to close the door. I actually go to the shop to GET AWAY from people that may be making me uncomfortable in my house.

I do most of our oil changes and vehicle repairs. Maybe not so much on oil changes, but overall we save a bunch of money on diy repairs. Plus we get the satisfaction of knowing it was done right.

I use my saw as a bench. My saw is stationary and has an extended fence. I usually just put a good size piece of plywood on it and I will use it as an assembly or dis-assembly station, a cleaning station, or whatever else needs to be done. I do have other bench area available in the shop, but...

Welcome from a fellow New Yorker. Most people here would love to see pictures of your garage!

I sent mine first week of October and received my card 2 days ago. It was a great deal.

I will also be running air lines in my shop this winter. I feel very fortunate to have access to all the information and experiences posted here. I have picked up a lot of great ideas to help with my installation, and this looks like another great example!
