Re: what did you do in your garage today? Finished stripping all the old undercoating and **** off of the underside of my '50 Chev. Now going to take it to the wand wash tonight with a couple cans of degreaser, spray the underside/underhood and give it a good cleaning. Then back into the...

That's too bad, I posted some pictures of my wife. She'll be disappointed they were taken down...

Go there and take $300 with you. Tell him you want to see it run to get up to pressure before you pay for it.

I moved a 10' x 10' shed. Jacked it up a few inches to break any "adhesion" it had with the ground from sitting. Put down a few 1x6's to start it sliding easier and lowered it back down. Two eye-bolts screwed into the 4 x 4 beam base, hooked them up with a couple shackles to a chain, connected...

I have a 45K Reznor. Works excellent.

I am by no means a carpenter so this is probably a stupid question...but I'm going to ask it anyway. What sort of height do you guys go by between the top of your workbench and the bottom of any storage cabinets above your bench? What kind of distance between them do you find provides good...

Guinness.

I just recently hung a Reznor 30,000btu unit and am VERY pleased with it. My garage is 20'x24' so for yours you may want to bump up to a 45,000btu unit. I would have but got a screaming deal on the 30Kbtu unit. It is low profile, ceiling hung, and natural gas. Can be vented out the wall as...

How does one measure the cfm of their compressor?

Thanks for the help guys. I measured the head pulley and it was 12", so I picked up a 3.5" for the motor. Works great, thanks again.

I picked up a compressor without a motor recently. I have a 1.5 hp Marathon motor that is rated at 3450rpm but when I attached it to the tank and compressor head I think it is rotating far too fast. Is there a way to decrease the rpm's to 1725? I could try to find another pulley but wondering if...

Stupid question, but I am hooking up a motor to my compressor and I want to ensure I have it rotating in the right direction. Does your compressor rotate clockwise or counterclockwise? Thanks.

I caulked the seam between the sill plate and the concrete. Then i bought a couple cans of auto undercoating, you know the rubber spray stuff. Taped up a few inches up my plywood inner sheathing and a few inches onto the concrete floor. Sprayed 2 coats and it's sealed up very nicely. Gives not a...

I just put it up in my garage, it works and looks excellent. Very bright with the white and easy to work with.

x2. Works like a charm.

Hang a new heater, seal up the base of the side walls, paint the OHD jam, and attached the weather stripping. I'm gone hunting for 2 weeks next weekend and it's my daughter's birthday this weekend...looks like evenings are filling up.

So I had a slab poured for my 20 x 24 garage, supposed to be sloped 2" to the overhead door. Turns out it is far from that and now when wet vehicles are parked inside the water runs to the side walls and pools up against them. A bit of an issue since there is snow here 6 months a year and my...

x2. Go to a local steel building insulation provider and ask them for stock they don't use anymore. You'll get a great deal on it, you'll most likely get the batts unfaced (like standard batt insulation). Also, you can get from them white faced vapour barrier. I am using this to create the...

Thanks for the input guys. I've gone with the T8's. I'm on the process of slowly outfitting the interior of the garage, just got it closed in before the snow! I'll post some pics here shortly.

Hi, I am about to start wiring my garage and have a question about lighting. It is 20x24 with a 9' ceiling. There are numerous great deals on T12 lights and fixtures around town but I hear T12 aren't that great. Can anyone shed some light (no pun intended) on the subject? Will I be greatly...
