Well, I got a lot done in the shop this weekend. Just not what I had planned.
On Saturday I opened the garage door to plug in the battery charger for the truck. Everything went well until I tried to close the door. The cables on both sides of the door shot off their spools and promptly wrapped themselves around the hardware. After an hour I was finally able to close the darn thing.
Easter Sunday I spent four hours taking everything apart and putting it back together. I was feeling pretty good about the job until the cables played their little trick all over again. At least this time I knew what to do to get the door down. I locked the door and went into the house cussing Menards for selling that cheap crap. After $950 the crap is in the garbage where it belongs and some real hardware is in it's place.
Cudos and recommendations for Precision Garage Door fast response and making the door light enough that I can open it manually if I have to (it weighs 250 lbs and yes they weighed it). The guys were fast and great to work with. They clearly knew their stuff.
On to windows.
