    Nice, I love that they are waterproof, was working outside and just closed the lid when it would start raining, plus they stayed in the truck bed so it frees up space for more delicate stuff. You get any kiazen foam yet?

    Ceilings were why I bought it. Pretty useful if you work by yourself too.

    Beautiful space....I love low windows like that. I think it's against code to have windows that low now. The look is so nice!

    Here low windows pass code but only if they are tempered glass

    I have to reread the codes here in philly, but I think they can be that low IF A and/or B happens. they need some sort of locking mechanism to prevent it from opening more than 4" or so. I'm afraid to see what it looks like over there after the wind and rain today :eek:

    Nice! I have the PDF version of the 2009 IRC. I prefer that because then i can search thru it a little easier. Apparently we are using 2009, the building inspector told me Philly uses that. I don't know if they adopted a new code yet.

    ahhh, a carpenter... Im an electrician. an old friend of mine was a union carpenter and we would trade shots with each other over which trade was better.

    I'll be honest, I'm not a big fan of inspectors. who is, really...?? So you're from the "woods of PA", where?

    I work in the Poconos and anywhere less than an hour and a half from me. Electrician has better pay and trade as long as the work is there:) I live closer to upstate New York. When I was laid off I would do trim work up at Elk mountain for people from New Jersey and New York;)

    Elk Mt worth the trip for skiing? And how comfortable is your couch?
