I mounted 4x4 boxes in the ceiling and put commercial grade receptacles in the boxes. The commercial grade receptacles hold much tighter, but be prepared to pay over $2.50 ea. I have not had any...
Unfortunately, no woodworking. But, I'm putting in a 13' x 25' patio. This week, I have been picking up a cu. yard of limestone screenings each night on the way home from work. I got the bricks...
The problem with spellcheckers is that if a word is misspelled and forms a real word, it doesn't catch it. I also find that even when proofreading, my brain knows what I meant to say and interprets...
Before doing anything to the basement walls or floor, I would check to make sure the ground around the house slopes away from the house. Sometimes, settling occurs. Make sure your gutters and...
The best defense against infections is to wash your hands frequently. I agree with everything Brad said. If you find yourself getting frequent infections, it could be a sign of a depressed immune...

Have you tried going to your local woodcraft with cash in hand and naming a price to see if they are willing to deal. They may be willing and you don't know if you don't try. The reason I specified...
Thank you to both JIm Terry for the response.
Personally, I would use the jig saw. There are two ways to start. Your suggestion is one, but I have found that the kerf from the hack saw is usually too narrow and tends to bind the jig saw blade....
I have the same problem with mine, only I don't need to cover any of it to have the noise problem. Did the forstner bit give you a good clean hole? I drilled a couple of 3/4" holes to make it easy...
What I have found helps alot, is to before putting the lid on a can I have been using, is to clean both the top of the can and the lid of any paint/finish. Since I began to do that, I have not had...
Just to second Joe's recommendation. Great prices and he is generous in the customer's favour when calculating BF. He gave me two pieces of 8/4 cherry because it was checked. Considering the crack...
I would look to see if there is any jellow-jacket wasp activity around your house. A friend of mine had them build a nest in a wall and chew through the drywall.
On the six hour drive home from visiting our son last weekend, my wife suggested we play "TV trivia". Each takes a turn asking the other a question regarding some detail about a TV show. Most of...
Another problem is that squirrel cage type fans loose their ability to move air when dust builds up on the vanes which would quickly happen in moving fine dust.
Sorry to hear of how it happened. Where I work was bought by Philips about 18 months ago. Since that time, we have seen a series of layoffs. However, to their credit, whenever possible, those...
Whenever there is a gift "receiving":D opportunity, I alway tell my wife, when in doubt, clamps are always a good idea. I'm finally getting through.

I had gotten a HD credit card to get the 10% discount on the first purchase + 90 days no interest(was buying $1500 worth of stuff). Made a $100 payment at the store on the card. A year later, the...
My best improvement is a combination outfeed table/downdraft sanding table/air filtration unit. Having the outfeed table has made it real pleasure to use the table saw and added greatly to safety. ...
