    Shop Work Lights

    Okay, I'm replaced my last Rough Service bulb and burned my arm for the last time, please give me some good shop work light recommendations. I don't mind retractable corded, as I'm tired of weak rechargeable batteries too. Any LED that actually put out good light? The ones I've played with I...

    Looking for garages with 9' door (minimum) and low roof height (about 17' max at peak).

    Thanks Marcm157 and Jack D. That's kind of what I'm envisioning. Keep those pictures coming!

    Big doors and low rooflines - pictures wanted

    Yes, I've seen this, but it will not be in the budget.

    Big doors and low rooflines - pictures wanted

    Can I see some creative garages with big doors and low rooflines? I'm looking at 9' to 14' height doors, but might be limited in my garage peak max height. Anyone?

    Limit Switch Problem?

    Heater is still working so-so, but I did find the old limit switch today. The heating guy didn't take it with him. The one installed now is 130-15F and the old one is 120-30F. Would this make a big difference in heat output and slow warm up?

    Limit Switch Problem?

    Yeah, I looked for a wiring diagram already, but it doesn't have one. :mad: Can't seem to find anything online either. :headscrat

    Limit Switch Problem?

    There are actually 2 limit switches on here. The old one was not 180 (I'm not sure what it was - he took it with him). I'm thinking it has the pair of limit switches for a high (180-40 in this case) and low (and 130-15). I understand how the are measured now by your description, so can I just...

    Limit Switch Problem?

    My heating guy replaced a limit switch on my old Janitrol 20K hanging gas heater before winter, but I'm wondering if he put in too cold of one. The new limit switch says F130-15F and the other says L180-40F. Taking nearly 4 hours to get up 55 degrees on a 20 degree day (2 car space) :mad...

    Filter Question

    Okay. Here's what I did. I found a cheap Speedaire regulator and stuck it immediately after the compressor. Got it dialed to its limit (150), so my filter should be fine. Stuck my regular good regulator after the filter (at 125). I just hope this isn't putting undo stress on my compressor...

    Filter Question

    Any other opinions? I know the line length isn't ideal, but I hope it works for catching most of the moisture at this short distance. Also, going to put my regulator after the filter even though it is only rated to 150. I'm assuming they mean 150 constant pressure and not holding pressure...

    Filter Question

    Just got a DeVilbiss CAMAIR QC3 filter that I'm hooking up in my compressor run. First off, the notes say I must have this 25 ft. from the compressor...well, I'm maybe 20 feet. I do have a riser and a water drain before the filter. Think I'll be okay? Also, I didn't realize this thing says...

    Very nice. Where are those 9 drawer red and clear storage bins on the pegboard from? I like 'em.

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    You guys notice they got reviews on Harbor Freight's site now. :bounce: About time! Hope it lasts. I always try and check here for the straight dope, but good to see now I can at least see what others are saying directly on the site.

    Where's your dryer?

    http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=97686 Anyone else using this dryer? How far away is yours from your compressor? I heard in another thread it needs to be 50 ft away to be effective. Still liking it? Think it is a fairly new HF item.

    Bigger than 3/8" line off compressor?

    60 gallon 5 HP compressor in a little 2 car. The flex line will eventually run to my "tree" on the wall with 3 lines (tool line, paint line, and blaster line). That's all I anticipate for now, but we all know how that goes. :rolleyes:

    Bigger than 3/8" line off compressor?

    I'm sticking a flexible braided line off the compressor to wall mount. Should I spent the extra $ bigger than 3/8"? Looks like I can go up to 11/16", but it will add up with the AN to pipe fittings. I'm getting the shortest precut hose (3 ft.) Thanks!

    What hose reel without hose?

    Cool swingarm, sberry. I'll just grab that HF one. Only need 50ft of hose anyway. Thanks guys.
