Hey guys does anyone have a coupon for the black 4 drawer roll cart at hf? Looking to pick one up this evening

Drill a hole, then use a jigsaw with a metal cutting blade....easy as pie...or just use tin snips

Dutchtown? Where is that? I'm from Lake Charles..

Larry this is my exact thinking...I've met plenty of electricians and I have yet to meet one that seems "gifted" (i'm sure they are out there but where I'm from there is much larger jobs than pole barns). I'm a collision tech by trade and have done extensive auto wiring in the past (harnesses...

Hey guys I'm looking for some basic knowledge on circuits to wire my pole barn. I had planned on buying a book to get started but figured I would ask here first. Are there any references/diagrams online? I have electrician friends that have been dragging their feet on coming to do the job so I'd...

I picked this up last week also...pretty solid deal

I'm a collision tech...I use a hf and a snapon....the snapon is worse on my wrist (carpal tunnel) but cuts better...I've used the hf for years...for what you are doing just cheap out...if I can use it day in and day out for a couple years you should be alright

I'm paying my truck off with my federal, probably putting the couple hundred from state into savings. I'm about to close on my mortgage about the same time I'm getting married in April...I may go ahead and get with a cpa to set myself up to maybe owe or get back in the 100$ range next...

Funny you guys are mentioning prices, I have been saving scrap aluminum (I work at a body shop)...I talked to our regular scrap metal guy and he said he has never seen can prices lower than $.55 a lb, I called friday and it was at $.48. I'm ready to get rid of this pile of aluminum but I'm...

Ok so I can save a good bit of money using 14/2 for my t8's. I haven't made it to that stage of my build yet...I tend to do my research last minute, Plus I'll have help from an electrician haha

Guys, I know I can just google this stuff, but what is 14/2 good for? I figured I'd be looking at a spool of 12/2 to wire my shop....Gonna put a bunch of 110 outlets, run a bunch of t8s and then 2-3 220v outlets for welding machine or compressor if needed.

I need one bad all these miscellaneous items are either in the bed or backseat of my truck and its killing me lol

Hornman I have about 2 ft of flat zone on the backside of the building (not gable end) but not so much on the front side (not gable ends). I still have plenty of 60/40 left and backfilling is definitely on the to do list. Can you please describe the retention wall or give me some pics of what...

To my surprise it only took 1 1/2 loads of sand to grade it out They had it raked around the edges, looks like my 4" slab will come up to the top of the grade board Vapor barrier and cable retention I guess I get to do something fun with this sand now (I have plenty of areas that need...

Ok here is the progress. Sand graded out, vapor barrier laid out, aircraft cable retention installed. I'm guessing they laid out the re-mesh today. I didn't make it out there today but I got in touch with them, they said they will be doing the pour in the next week or two. We've been getting...

I'm not running any conduit under the slab. I'm not 100% sure on what our electrical code is here (bodyman by trade) but we'll be owner contracting the wiring of the shop (already have power going to panel) and I'll be helping an electrician friend of mine do the wiring inside. As for getting...

I live in southwest Louisiana, we don't freeze much here but it does happen from time to time. I've got a couple friends I may be able to get out there to supervise or at least keep an eye on them. I wouldn't know where to start when hiring someone else
