    Tech: how to adapt vintage porcelain barn lamps for your shop

    Check out this web site. They aren't too pricey. I've been thinking of getting some of these to cover my 24x28 garage. Figure if I pick up some 75w cfl's (300w equivalent) should give me plenty of light...

    Pex through foundation help needed.

    As a former tow truck operator myself that show is a bit hard to watch. Those guys aren't to swift when it comes to figuring things out. Maybe its all for TV but still.

    I think we could use a plumbing forum. We have an Electrical, HVAC and a Flooring forum but nothing for water. I know most of us have built or are building our garages with sinks, hoses, bathrooms, etc. Some are using hot water heaters. Also for drains in the floor or for your sink and...
