    PEX confusion - is this just marketing?

    We will be doing Pex in our house next year. But it’s a small house and full crawl space access. My understanding (foggy memory): Pex A Specialized and expensive tools. Full flow fittings/joints (pipe ID = fitting ID) Pipe slightly more expensive. Pex B Easier and less expensive to install...

    Locked? Why? “…cabinets get so expensive?”

    Why did the “why did tool cabinets get so expensive?” Thread get locked? It looked like a lot of people added in their areas of knowledge. Did GJ just hire a bunch of laid off twitter employees?

    Building a DIY CNC Plasma Table....

    I reread the title. It still says: “ Building a DIY CNC Plasma Table.... “ and the pics you post are still 3D printing. You may have changed the content in your first post, but the pics and your title still don’t match.

    Building a DIY CNC Plasma Table....

    Maybe I missed something, but the title says “CNC Plasma Table” but the OP talks about 3D printing. They are not the same.

    Shipping container Q&A, Thoughts?

    Any contractors here be able to tell us what the cost of an 8x20 or 8x40 pole barn would cost? Basically the equivalent sized structure. If a container is comparable in cost then it’s a good value. (I would say a container is more secure than a stick built anything).

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Finally got the air cooler/dryer and the compressor working. Took me two weeks. This pic doesn’t show the final 100% install. I have the belt guard on, and it’s plumbed into a desiccant and water/oil separator under the bench.

    Schadenfreude - What did you screw up today?

    I have spent almost a week adding a cooler/dryer to my air compressor. I had one part left to install and after several wrong parts and “oh, that’s the wrong size” moments, I had to walk away today. I seem to be a “design/build” person. Which isn’t good. I really appreciate those of you who...

    Wood vs Unistrut vs 80/20?

    Ummmm wood. But if you want to toss away several hundred $ because 80/20 is cool, it’s your money. I’d spend the extra $$ on tools or better HVAC or audio.

    Exterior Garage, Shop, or Pole Barn?

    Sell the property. Move to where there isn’t an HOA. Build the biggest shop you can afford.

    The Craigslist ad did say several things about buyers premium, removal, loading etc. it also had an insurance requirement if you use equipment to move items. I saw a contact for rigging but didn’t read it.

    TL/DR the above posts but I don’t know if anyone mentioned a simple idea… just drop down more gravel. Sorry if it was said before. Good luck. Edit: take pics and keep us updated. /sarc

    Sell or Keep Properties?

    I have rarely heard anyone say they are glad they sold a property unless it’s sold to buy another property. But everyone is almost always happy they bought property.

    Spiders

    Kill. Every. Spider. I spray for insects too. Hoping to remove the food the spiders are seeking. We use the foggers inside and spray outside. I also do not turn on the light at the back door in the summer.

    How much land do you need to not have "visible" neighbors?

    If we won the lottery we would buy a plot of land that’s at least an hour from anything. Somone mentioned the word “solitude” and that is exactly what we want.
