My floors are only 3 years old and I am not impressed with the product that I used. I used Sherwin Williams Armos seal or something like that....and it has not held up very well in a house garage and a detached shop. It has come up in some spots and it is also hard to get clean. What is a...

How much are you planing to caulk? Just the trim or the overlaps too?

Thanks guys - You rock. I am going to get that compressor going today.

Thanks guys.

I guess I should of looked closer at the tank and compressor. It answered my question about wire guage, but I still can't find what horse power the motor is. I thought it was 6 from this picture - But is doesn't say HP after the 6 but it does say 60 gallon. The tank states that 26' to 50 feet...

I don't see a FLA but it has a FA on the label of 93 amps. Sorry for the lack of info. Yes, it is 240V and the line to the pannel is going to be about 30-40 feet. Thanks

I am wiring up a new compressor. It has a 6HP (Speed Air). I am hardwiring it in, replacing the plug it had on it when I got it. The wire it has on it is 10 guage. Can I get away with using 12 guage? I already have a bunch of 12/3 that would work vs over $1.50 a foot for 10/3 at the Depot. If I...

Thanks Charles - Yea, I should of just searched first. When I build my shop, I built a little room off the back to house the compresser. Just the supply and power will come through the wall. It will be a little bit harder to switch off the compresser at the unit. I guess if I make the piping...

I have a couple of questions on installing a compressed air system. 1 - Do any of you guys have your compressor on a on/off switch? I just don't want my compressor cycling when It is not in use. I guess if my piping is tight, it wouldn't be necessary. 2 - I would like to install a few...

Thanks for the replies. You are right, I think that I pig tailed off a switch leg and not the hot leg. Thanks for the help. It makes sence now.

I have 4 single pole switches in a 4 guange box. All neutrals are wire nutted together, all grounded and all 4 switches are pig taled off the same power. My problem is that the power is stopped at the first switch where the power comes in. Everything works good when the first switch is on but if...

Has anyone seen any good deals of late for 4' and 8' flourescent Lights? Or any suggestions of the best place to get them? Thanks

Are those pretty easy to get? Local Auto Part/hardware store?

Is there a product out there that can get stains (Oil,paint, stain etc) off of concrete where a presure washer couldn't? Thanks..

Here is what I have so far in design... I want to just extend the ceiling of the bathroom all the way to the front of the shop. And like I said, it is just for storage - camping gear, christmas lights etc. Maybe a couch and TV just for kicks too. I would rather attach the 2x8's to the face...

8-9 Feet. Im having a coworker draw it up in AutoCad right now. I will post the proposed plan when I get it. With the chain idea I would defiantly connect the chain to a piece of board, or what ever, that would span of the shop, not just the 2 rafters....just a thought. It would be nice to...

Im not to worried about the beam breaking. I have seen a lot smaller logs used for roofs in cabins that require a lot large load (snow) capacity than I am going to use. It will for sure need a couple of support posts, or an idea was thrown at me to possable use some chain or cable and support...

I am starting to think of ideas for a loft I want to build in my shop. I am trying to make it cheep and have a line on a tree/log to use as the main beam. It will span about 25' and the 2x8's will be 10' long. So the loft would be around 300 sq ft. Does anyone know of a bracket that you can...

I will have to open it up when I have a second. Thanks

That is the bad thing. I am sure I could go to return it but I through away the box after running it for a while and my wife got it for me from a place that is way out of the way. I might just have to bite teh bullet and try to return the thing.
