That is a good point. I may need to consider some alternatives. There was decent heat coming off that wall this past weekend when I was scoping it out.

I am on good terms with the neighbor so I definitely make sure he is cool with it. The fence runs probably 30 yards away from the garage so I could try to have some go horizontally on it. I was thinking of putting a couple of posts in the ground and attaching some twine up to them for...

I was curious if I could take the space between my garage and fence and use it for growing hops this year. I'm located in southern Alabama and that side of the garage faces south. I would plan on clearing all the existing growth out of there and trying to fit the tiller back there to work the...

Same thing is happening on one side of my new dual regulator setup that came with a kegging kit. I just contacted them to see what to do. It creeps up to 50psi with the valve adjusted to what should be off.
