Re: Is anyone here a TechShop member? If you don't know TechShop, you'll be amazed.

Some of you know me here from my garage build from a few years ago. My garage build post was in the top 10 for a while there. My shop, not including equipment was around $100k,...

Re: New garage in CA, ceramic tiles or water based epoxy?

Epoxy-coat.com (not waterbased crap)

Did it, love it, in Cali.

My fear with tiles is dropping something on them and having them crack.

Seen the latest issue of CAR CRAFT?

In the Feb 2008 issue, there's a certain someone's shop featured. I'm not naming names, but it sure looks like me!

Re: And you thought Costco toolboxes were cool....

THose are hand formed bodies by guys that used to build Russian Migs. I'm certain the quality is insane. You cannot hide imperfections in raw aluminum. God knows, i try!

Re: This Is What I Think I"m Gonna Do????????

If I didn't know any better, I'd say the above post was an ad?!?

Not that I care, I just don't want to see too much "spam."

I assume this is OK with Ryan?

Good examples of bad garages!

I don't understand why someone would leave a $50,000 car outside and keep crap in the garage!!!

Enjoy!

Re: Welders?

Try searching. We've covered this issue quite a few times.

IF you get a MIG, pay a little more and get a bottle. The spatter is just a HUGE mess and it's an ugly weld.

Re: Do you wear your wedding band?
