    Running 220 single phase

    Ahh that makes sense then. I figured newer equipment might be 4 wire. Thanks for the help. Out of curiosity, what dictates having a 4th wire? I installed a hot tub last fall and it's 4 wire single phase. But it's also 50 amp...

    Running 220 single phase

    Can I hook up the nuetral though in case anything in the future would be 4 wire? Would there be any harm in that? And use a 4 wire plug and just not have the neutral in the plug?

    Running 220 single phase

    I have recently got some 220 single phase wood tools. Older ones. A jointer, planer, shaper and I will rewire my table saw. The most amps of any of them is 16. I bought 12/3 Romex with ground and 4 wire plug / outlet. The tools all have 3 prongs. I assume there is no neutral on them...

    Minimax T3 shaper weight

    I'm picking up a T3 wood shaper soon. Unfortunately it's in the basement of an old man's house. I need to carry it out. He says the top is removable. Does anyone have one that can confirm the top comes off? Know the Weight? Any idea how much the top weighs? Thanks!

    correct placement of these truss?

    thanks. so should the very ends of the flat or lower cord whatever be on the outside carriers? and then have a same size carrier inside? leaving the overhang unsupported technically by the carrier?

    correct placement of these truss?

    are these truss set right on the carrier? there are 4x6 posts. 2x12 on the outside and 2x4 on the inside. I would have thought the flat portion of the truss should be on both carriers. and the 2x4 should also be a 2x12. both are notched. the flat is on the 2x4 and the overhang is on the 2x12

    Garage overhaul

    so LVL on top of newly set posts would work good? I could do 2- 1-3/4x 14" x 17' LVL on top of 6x6 posts? I looked at GluLam but they are about 5x the price it seems, but can be treated. LVL says not for the elements, while its inside it isn't climate controlled either. No concerns there...

    Garage overhaul

    It's just truss at the ends. Though the ends are a different style, so maybe a gable truss? Not stick and frame

    Garage overhaul

    I've debated for a long time what to do with this pole barn / garage. The single door is in a terrible location and is too small. I was going to tear it down and build a bigger one,but I think now Im going to make it a shop and then add on to it later to make it deeper. Until then... I have...
