That was essentially my plan but to run an I beam above/on the ceiling trusses and suspend a second from that. Looks like the appropriate solution is to run one hefty beam across the short dimension

Problem with this is vibration, which can toss the accuracy off. As a testimony to necessity being the mother of innovation example, however, see BMW's factory in Munich, where they managed to put 1

Well, the reason I got the oil furnace for the garage was because it is the old one from the house, which has been replaced with an LP 'gas' furnace. Needless to say, it was a learning experience. Th
