 Getting some weird binding and release going on in the cable?

What cable, clutch?

Started the Syncro. Weird... no tap since I put the STP in.
Anyway, hopefully my parts have shipped from BD & it'll be back on the road soon

Sent off the request for quote from BD Pole Barns.
24X30 with a  giant slidey door on the front, radiant floor heat,
double doors on the side leading to the screen room! I wonder how much of that I can afford




(This is the part where the roller coaster is click-click-click up the initial incline)


Doh Boy!

Did I ever tell you how good STP is, if I didn't the story goes like this, back in the 60s

BD sells Synco parts and pole barns??

The giant slidey door. (:

If you have to cut costs, skip the radiant floor heat and get an old Kenmore dryer and vent it in. Works like a charm and the lint that settles tells you what tools you never pick up.

Had an old propane fired 110 volt dryer sitting next to my garage, my friend from
Benson, Az. was here for a visit and asked what i was going to do with the old
dryer.  I told him it was going to the dump, as we do not have a use for a propane
dryer ( all electric house ).  He took it back to Benson.  He vented the burner gases
outside and the heated air into his shop.  The door latch was broken, so he just
used a sheet metal screw and cured the problem.  Makes a great space heater !!!! 
One man's junk, is another man's treasure !!

  - Maybe just the slidey door?




Yuma... Love hearing stuff like that, trash into treasure with a little creative thought!

  My uncle made his own heated floor for a commerial garage. He just used coiled copper tubing, ran it up and down, couple of feet apart. Then he poured his concrete floor over it. He had some kind of heat exchanger in this big old oil burner that sat in the corner of the garage. I don't know if he had a pump to circulate the water or not. I was just a kid when he did it. But when that heat was on, the floor was never cold.

We will know all the answers Saturday morning. Bob from BD Pole Barns is coming over at 0900.
He has already talked me out of the big slidey door. He says the standard garage doors seal much better.

He HAS done the PEX tubing installations & plans to use it in the floor of the garage he is about to build for his house.

It's like Christmas! Oh wait... It actually IS Christmas

Way cool, can't wait to see the end product. Love my garage but heated floor is something I can only wish I had.

Be sure to get 10' wide doors and not the standard 9',  that extra foot really makes a big difference.

[6T5 square]

yeah.

about a foot.

[Baha (Shawn)]

yeah.

about a foot.

That's what I told him... 10'

[lovebus (jack)]

Smart a**!

I finished doing the half-assed job top on The Strap yesterday so I took it for a ride to see how I would fair on a very cold windy day. I didn?t have a jacket on and it held its own as far as me not freezing during the ride. The oil temp gauge never got above 130 on the 4 mile trip so the heat was just enough to keep the chill off but not enough to keep you real warm, on a longer ride I'm sure I will be confortable. All in all it's warm enough to drive it in the winter and keep the rain off me.
