I dont think they wanted or should I say I wanted to see that. Man theres rubbing it in, then theres kicking the horse while he's down and then there is this, meaning you.
So the only real question is when can I move in?

Beautifull!!!

Just give you an idea. My father is putting up a stick built 30x36 with a full 12' ceiling and open attic. We are doing all the work start to finish ourselves. I think he's going to have a hard time keeping the budget of $15K. The lumber/trusses/sheathing/shingles came to about $7K. We poured $2,500 in concrete (floating slab). Will cost another $3K to bring in power from the street (have to run power about 250'). Need two 10x10 Graco doors at $700 a peice, plus siding, windows, a standard door, and a furnace. This doesn't include the cost of rebar/mesh for the slab and the 3 cubes of cinder blocks that we used for the first 2' of our walls (don't know how much was spent on that).

I managed to pick up a lift for it. This will be the last winter that I have to lay on my back in 7* weather.

It looks like a fuel motor, too. The dual Pro Mags kind of gave it away.

Bait, how do you like that Craftsman box? I was thinking about getting the same one until I went to the store this weekend and they had one that was all bent and **** and some drawers couldn't even open. Made me think they maybe cheap

**edit, sorry I just noticed it said Husky on it, looks exactly like the Craftsman box I liked

I had a craftsman profesional series box for 7 years at work. Im an auto tech. so it wsa used constantly and it held up excellent. I would recomend them to anyone. the grade down are noticably cheaper made, thinner metal, not as much bracing, but Id thing would still be fine for home use.
one of these days I'll need to get a new box for home and I'll proly get a husky or whatever name they put on it from wherever I can get a good price. Ive seen some really nice tool boxes at sams club and costco believe it or not.

Mine is a wooden pole, metal skin..20x30x10, 14ft wide roll up door, complete, all subbed out cost $13,200 including electrical, I would guess about $20,000 with lights and all complete.


Different prices for different parts of the country you would think.
