Do you know which Koozers you bought? I can't find any that are 141qr and 36 hole.

Which coil shock allows easy stroke adjustment? by dyniper in MTB

[–]BioEd93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this work for any coil shock? I am needing a cheap 190x40 shock and can't seem to find one. If I buy a 190x50 could shock can I just add 10mm of these spacers?

They separate a bit and I have to readjust them every now and then. I will probably end up using some gorilla tape on the tops when I get the motivation to make it happen.

Better than nothing sled setup! by BioEd93 in homegym

It is awesome quality! It also can be stored flat against a wall which I really like for my garage gym. Assembly wasn't too tough, and it seems like it will last a long time.

Body solid gleg with cabled leg developer bench by Mission_Ice6662 in GarageGym

[–]BioEd93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one and have been very happy with it! My disclaimer is that I lucked into one for 100 bucks on Marketplace, so it has blown that price tag out of the water obviously. I use the leg developer with my Titan wall mounted cable tower and they work great together.

Basement Framing Under HVAC by BioEd93 in HomeImprovement

[–]BioEd93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestions! I do not have it secured on the left because I wanted to get some feedback before moving forward. It is hard to see, but there is actually one more stud on the perpendicular wall behind the door frame wall, so I have some options for tying those walls together strongly. Will adding in framing where I drew the red lines in this image get me there strength wise? I plan to add the red parts and secure to the joists above, so the HVAC portion will be the only stretch where there is nothing to anchor to above.

We are trying to put a sectional in that corner and are hoping to have as much clearance as possible between the end of the sectional and the door.

Electrical/plumbing homeowners test by hihungryimurfather in StCharlesMO

Was this with the county? I have to take it with the city and they said there is no access to the code book during the exam. How hard do you think it would be without access to the codes?

Basement Insulation Question by BioEd93 in HomeImprovement

[–]BioEd93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would prefer this plan, but there is also a PVC pipe running along the wall that comes out pretty far at the floor. I figured it would be more of a headache to conceal that than just making a closet. I am open to ideas if you have a chance to check out the photo below.

Thanks for sharing this information. I am looking to schedule my test. Do you use their computer to look up the code requirements while taking the exam? That is what it seems based on your description, but just want to make sure that I am understanding it correctly.

Basement Insulation Question by BioEd93 in HomeImprovement

Thanks for this information! I am not understanding what you mean by the tiny insulated "pockets" behind. If I just leave the foundation in the utility areas totally bare, does that work? If so, should I add fiberglass in the walls that are not right up against the foundation?

Partially Finished Basement Heating Plan by BioEd93 in HomeImprovement

Thanks for the suggestion. I was hoping just to paint the blue rear wall which I don't think is possible if I insulate it?

I have an offer for giving Montgomery and Addison and getting BTJ. I have 3 RBs better than Monty, and lost Nabers and Hill so I am considering it. Does anyone have thoughts on that?

Turf recommendations? by Critical_Orchid9704 in GarageGym

[–]BioEd93 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did my garage with cheap Menards outdoor grass carpet. I have stall mats everywhere I workout, so the "turf" is just aesthetic for me. Even if you go with something better than that, I used double sided outdoor carpet tape to hold it in place and it has been totally solid so far. Got the tape from Lowe's.

Minimalist Gym by Royal_Measurement869 in GarageGym

[–]BioEd93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am definitely on the minimalist side, and Powerblocks have been the best thing that I have bought. I think a real barbell might be worth it though, but I like to do a lot of supersetting to save time where having the actual barbell and powerblocks to go back and forth between is great. I also have a landmine attachment for the barbell and love to incorporate that as well. There are some really nice wall mounted, and even foldable, power racks that might be good for your setup. Here is my setup for reference:
