For 750 miles, they could have kept the vise! lol

I understand this is somewhat subjective, but as I mentioned earlier I am missing one vice jaw from a Chas Parker 59x vise. It has about 4.75" jaws. I have a line on a Wilton 9400 - 4" with swivel base. Is one of these better than the other? I liked my Parker but currently it's useless to...

That's a good idea. Probably would be much easier to find a set of jaws that way.

Thank you. Keep your eyes open if you find anything. Please send them my way. I'm about to break down and buy a new vice. If I had access to a Bridgeport, are they fairly easy to make there?

Looking for some help here. I was referred to this thread and told someone by the name of 'Kevin' who used to make vise jaws may be able to help? Anyway, I have a Charles Parker 59X vise. During a moving adventure the moving company lost one of my vise jaws. I have been searching online...

Choices, choices... Appreciate everyone's insight... Let me sit on it for a night.

I kinda like this idea. I would agree 15k lumens would be better if I was mounting 15 or 16. Do you feel that 8 lights in that space to the left of the RV would not be sufficient alone? Or conversely do you feel that 12 lights to the left of the RV will illuminate the space where the RV sits...

Yep, great point. I did specify switches for each bank and dimmers so I could work on things if I pulled it out.

Well I only ordered 12 :) So where would you place 12? I currently have them on dimmers and each row of 4 on one switch.

Good call I accidentally selected the incorrect light. Lighting fixture - ibe 22LM MVOLT 50K Updated first post. SC = 17

Good afternoon folks. Question relating to light placement in the ceiling. Garage details - 40'x50'x16' Roof pitch - 4/12 Lighting will be hung around 14' See picture of the inside of the shop. The right most bay will be taken up by a 40' RV most of the time. Overall height of RV is around...

You want a weld up metal kit vs a bolt together. With a weld up, you'll have a lot more ceiling space where you can essentially build a loft for attic support.

Metal or wood structure?

My contractor found insulated doors around R7 or R10 that were only slightly more expensive than roll up doors. The advantage of traditional garage doors are you won't have to deal with doors banging around or deal with air leaks. If you're going to spray foam, highly suggest getting an...

First post but I'll give you some real world examples. I've been kicking around options for 4 years now. In 4 years pricing has gone up 50%+ easily since I started quoting. Dallas, TX pricing for reference 1. Metal shop - 30x40x12, boxed beam foundation and slab, 2 non-insulated garage...
