    Unit Heater Sizing

    That is good to know. Our cold is in 0-20 range and only a short time usually. There is 2 12x14 r10 garage doors that are sealed up pretty well but I will keep an eye on it. I forgot to mention there will a wood stove in the corner for weekends and extended projects.

    Unit Heater Sizing

    Just dried in my 40x80x16’ shop and was hoping to get some feedback on heater sizing. I purchased a 125k Mr Heater and every calculator I have looked shows it will be big enough but I am skeptical. Any feedback would be appreciated! Thanks

    The Best Light Fixture Ever!

    I am sure this has been covered but I cant seem to find it... Can the LSS2XT8USE4803 be wired/ mounted end to end? My goal was to mount 10 of these in tandem, so 8' of light for a 36x48' shop with 14.5' ceiling. Am I going in the right direction?

    How did it hold after the insulation was blown in? I assume you applied after the fabric was stapled up?

    For the first 4' of siding I put up metal. Initially I ordered brown but my wife liked the red so we went with that. Glad we did I like how it turned out. For the 12'x12' doors I went with a Wayne Dalton 8300, so approximately r13 value with the Liftmaster 3800's The Mrs painting the...

    We took advantage of one of the last 50 degree weekends of the year and painted. Once again called up the family and had a good size paint crew. Rented a boom lift and my father in law owns an airless sprayer so between all extra hands had it painted in one day. Caulking crew(wife & MIL)...

    My 36x48x14.5' Build Thread

    The siding is a TruWood cottage lap, its wood fiber product that can expand and contract. So its installed this way to allow that and the trim boards cover that.

    My 36x48x14.5' Build Thread

    Next went siding, and where I realized probably the biggest mistake I made on the build. As I was finishing up with the fascia I noticed that I was using 2x6 fascia instead of 2x8 so I did not have the any material hanging down. So come spring time I will pull the gable end fascia off and put up...
