Here ya go...???

Since I've been corrected, I will add to my uncorrectiveness. I was able to put the filtration system back together and after pushing the buttons repeatedly it started up and blew me with a whole bunch of air. So there ya go. I'll post photos later. Tony

Hello Y'all, I was searching Craigslist this morning. Someone was giving away a Jet filtration system. I called him and went to pick it up. When I got there he gave me a Craftsman pressure washer with a Briggs and Stratton engine. After a number of hours and searching youtube I was able to get...

Owen, What is a blend door motor? We do have a surplus store in Lincoln. I hope that they have something small enough. Thanks, Tony

Hey Y'all, I am working on my two trap throwers. I want to make them move side to side and up and down. I purchased two windshield wiper motors. The problem with the motors are the rotate to fast. I tried to electronically slow them down but it seemed to stall the motors. So I'm here to ask of...

Hey Y'all, Isn't it nice when you come home from a trip only to have something bad waiting for you? After getting snowed in because Chicago could not plow there runways I came home to my main water pipe frozen. This is after I spent twenty something hours driving back from Philly to Nebraska...

Just a thought, One thing to think about with the skid placement. Find a flat bed wrecker and measure the rail to rail distance. Put the outside of your skids just slightly less than that distance. That way you could sell it later and have to hauled away so you can build a bigger building later...

When I built my shed I used a five pound sledge hammer. Beat the plates flush and then stop if not they will start curling back up. During one summer before college I worked at a truss factory. My hands were torn up in the first week and callused the next. Never again. Hope that helps, tony.

Hey Y'all, I finally have power to my shed. I found some 2-2-2-4 mhf cable. I checked all the outlets and everyone but the light socket worked. Then I saw that the light switch was off. Dooh!!! So now I need to figure out what light I bought and buy bulbs for it. I appreciate all the help y'all...

Thanks again PattenP. Now just to find some wire.

PattenP has it right. I have the main panel in my house. There is a 240 volt 60 amp circuit breaker that I will use as the source for the subpanel that is in the shed. I went to Menards today. The wire that I have listed in the original post is not sold by the foot. Well if you consider 500 ft...

Thanks again PattenP. I'm going to Menards tomorrow to order the wire in my first post. Yes the wire will be above ground. With Menards giving me the ability to order the 2-2-2-4 wire I'm going to use that. Thanks again, Tony

Thanks for your help so far PattenP. I have a sixty amp breaker now. I realize the hundred amp breaker on the subpanel would be trumped by the sixty amp breaker I have now. Would the best option right now be for me to buy the 2-2-2-4 wire and run it to the main panel with the sixty amp...

Menards also has this cable: 1/0-1/0-1/0 Aluminum URD, Per Foot Model Number: SKU_3692046 | Menards® SKU: 3692046 http://www.menards.com/main/electrical/rough-electrical/wire-cable/1-0-1-0-1-0-aluminum-urd-per-foot/p-1469807-c-6441.htm I would need another wire for the ground to go back to...

Hello Fellows and Fellowettes, I need your advise to help me to get power to my shed. Here is a picture of the relationship to my casa on wheels. The distance from the end of my house to the corner of the shed is less than three feet. I can almost touch my elbow to my house and my fingertips...

When the city came around to assess mi casa en wheels, they said that the biggest I could go, with the shed I built, without being taxed was 10x20, <200 sqft. Might want to look into the same thing if it applies. Tony P.s. I use my 10x12 as my do-all motorcycle shop and workplace.

Greg, I used my 5500 watt,7500 surge generator with my Millermatic 175. It worked for me. When I struck the arc it would cycle up but than come back down to it's working speed. I hope that helps. Tony

Hey Ya'll, My buddy was moving and he needed to get rid of some stuff. He gave me this great oil can that his dad used. I think it is coll old school. What do ya'll think? Have fun, Tony and addendum, I am almost finished with my 10x12 shed. I just have to do the wiring and I will be done. I...

Marshall, I don't know if I like the cabinet or not but nice work anyways. Have you thought of adding some shelves in the door to give you some more storage options? Just a thought. For all the rest of Ya'll, Hurry up and get to work so that when I finish my shed I can use ya'lls ideas also...

Thanks Ya'll, I put the rafters on sixteen centers, well sort of. The shed is coming along fine. I need to finish up the installation of the last roof panels. I have to go buy two more sheets of plywood for that. Hopefully I can get off my rear and get it at least tar papered today. I don't like...
