j hancock Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Good quality light is definitely on my list of critical shop equipment. Nothing worse than trying to do repair work in the dark! 1 Quote JimIt doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

I have relight several shops with LED's is different forms, tube, bulb, High Bay, Exterior. They use fare less energy and do not generate the heat old bulbs do and really bright. The stuff is made in china as most is and I have had issues with the exterior light fixtures in the AZ heat. After two years I called and they replaced 6 of 7 of them for free, no hassle at all. They do stand behind what they sell. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53294-parking-vintage-semi-at-your-house/page/6/#findComment-437273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
68-f-model Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 I always use sylvania led bulbs and never had a problem. This side of the barn will eventually have two two post lifts and a 1 ton jib crane . This is the crane awaiting my gathering of the I beams to mount it . 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53294-parking-vintage-semi-at-your-house/page/6/#findComment-437315 Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeavyGunner Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 It’s looking good.

tenfive0 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Here my answer to ZONING. It fell from the sky. Stay OFF MY PROPERTY and if it bothers you don't look. "It's looking good". Awaiting approval. Safety FIRST. To satisfy the insurance company and to keep trespassers and spectators away off MY PROPERTY put up signs, cones and yellow tape. Looking better? Approval GRANTED. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53294-parking-vintage-semi-at-your-house/page/6/#findComment-446724 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenfive0 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Just remember it has been and could get a lot WORSE. Safety first. Staying true to the (Mack) forum because the internet Zoning Officer might be watching. Fifty Three - Oh One - 10-23 (on scene). 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/53294-parking-vintage-semi-at-your-house/page/6/#findComment-446728 Share on other sites More sharing options...
