OCD's 24x24...

[OCD]

Got the hoist all together on the weekend but the ram was defective!! Took it back and swapped it for a new one this morning!!

 

[ARCTIC_RAGTOP]

Awesome garage, should introduce that hoist to the polisher, after a sander of course!

 

[OCD]

Air line came in!! Merry Christmas to me!!

3/4" Aluminum,

Still need to get some Filters and regulators... Not sure what to go with yet?

Nice presents. That's quite a collection of air fittings.
Surprisingly it was enjoyable for me to install and configure my air system to meet my needs.
Enjoy and Merry Christmas.

Merry Christmas akdiesel!!

This weekend I cleaned the new to me tool box, it came from a pretty dirty shop!!

Took out all the drawers to clean the inside,

Much better,

Just the drawer fronts and top edge, lol

Now I need help putting the big drawers back in!!

 

[OCD]

Tsunami filters came in, they are beauties!!

 

[Boosted1]

[OCD]

Started putting tools away!!

OCD. Great Post, Nice Garage. I am having a bit of problem planning for Power for my Garage. My Garage is separate from the house, My Power is a buried line. I want to get rid of that. What do I have to do to have my Garage with it's own Main Power Box? I would love a 100 Amp Power Box for my Garage. Since you are a Hop skip and a jump away from me. Same Alberta Laws should apply.

Originally, the power line was going from the pole overhead to my house, then a run from the house to the garage...

I had the power line, meter, and 100 amp panel installed on my garage so it is now the main power source... House is fed underground from the garage panel...

Think all you have to do is pull a permit to add a meter and panel on your garage... Do you have overhead lines or are they all buried?

I had to hire a journeyman electrician to do it, the city wouldn't let me get the permit... The city also has to do the live hook up, they don't let the electricians do it anymore...

Thank you!!


Got a few more things organized,

I love this tool box!! Hutch and lockers are next, when a deal comes along!!

 

[OCD]

OCD to the MAX!

Yup, he's afflicted for certain...but in an excellent way, of course!

Hey, some of those hammers need polishing. I have the OCD eye, but not the energy anymore.

the lines from the house to the garage are buried. with an additional meter would there have to be a designated address for the garage?

LOL!! I gave up fighting it years ago, all in now!! I even get along with all the voices in my head... Still have a few arguments with the monster under the bed!! Working on that!!

Should be the same address but the city may beg to differ... The big question is will the city/county allow you another feed from the main connection point...

 

[R-Savage]

Yes that is the question. I wonder who I could call to get an answer on that?

That is one very nice place you have made for yourself. Have to subscribe. Look forward to seeing your airline project completed.

Power company, or the city/county building and development department probably...

Got the hose from the compressor to the airline made up, just waiting for a buddy to come help me put everything together!!

I needed a 1/2 fitting on one side and all they had in stock was 3/4, so we used a reducer...

I guess I should have had a male fitting put on this end, could have eliminated the adapter... Oops...

OCD awesome looking garage!

I dont know how I missed this but welcome and nice work!

Thanks guys!!

 

[Power Sedan]

Very cool! I'm building one the same size, always looking for what works well.

 

[OCD]

Loading my old Mastercraft box, I gave it to my cousin!!

Slid the top over,

This worked great, it was less work loading it by myself then unloading it with two of us!!

 

[OCD]

I had an extra set of hinges, so I doubled up the big center bottom drawer,

Top came in and was 3M coated before install!!

Today I ordered two lockers and a hutch for the tool box!!

 

[mkIValh]

Today I ordered two lockers and a hutch for the tool box!!

The 3m looks amazing on the stainless top. Man I think you have too much money first the tools then the box, now lockers and a hutch I'm speechless

I wish I had too much money!!

No wife, no kids, no payments except utilities and food... Company pays for gas and insurance!! This is my entertainment, don't drink anymore, so that leaves some money for tools and car parts every month!!

 

[OCD]

I think I am getting a decent deal on the hutch and lockers too, 15% off and some rebates comes out to about $3600 off retail... That's almost the hutch for free...

Not to mention all the entries I have in the Trifecta contest!! I am going to win the $5000 spending spree!!

 

[OCD]

Got started on the air line!!

Dirty air service for air tools, ect...

Clean air for blasting, painting, ect... This will be set up with back up and bypass...

 

[OCD]

Here is a link to the air line I am using,

[Rossco]

Right on. Good alternative to Transair.

Any dealers with stock in Alberta?

 

[OCD]

I had to order it in... Took about three weeks...

Got from here in Edmonton,

[Park]

Nice space you have.

I wish I had the power service you have, the builder of my house thought one 15 amp circuit for the garage was sufficient. I have to turn the tv off to run the compressor. Ha.

Edmonton here as well.

Thanks again for the info & link. Hoping for a dealer closer to Lethbridge. Search continues.

Kinda unlucky to have that. My friends Comp called for bigger wire than the garage feed.

I'am lucky and Have the same as OCD. Feed into the shop from the high lines, 200amp then 100amp to the house.
