Scott, where did you find the actual bins?

Hi All,

I've decided to go ahead with the installation of a suspended wooden ceiling like that in WOOD magazine a few months ago. During the planning stages, I've run into a few quandries that...

Omaha might not be bad for you to take a look at. Construction companies are always hiring around here, especially experienced supes. Plenty of smaller towns around with a small commute to fit your...

This will be a little off topic, but here goes. Sears makes offers with their credit cards on par with nearly all other cc companies. I do feel the problem partially lies with nearly predatory...

Yeah, Definitely need a bit more thinking on this one as far as layout goes. I'd like to make it look nice, but the odd sizes are probably just a bit of overcomplicating things on my part; no real...

Hi Dan,

You were right about my original question. The panels I'm considering are 4' squares and 4' x 6' rectangles. The ribs on the back of the panels I think are actually 2" high, whereas the...

Hey all,

Just got the new WOOD magazine in the mail and saw the article on the suspended wood ceiling. Looks like a nifty idea, but I was wondering what size of panels you could make before sag...

This is where I found some replacements for my asbestos siding. Perfect match, I feel very lucky to say.

I can vouch for documented existence in Omaha within the last two years. Multiple sightings coupled with a captured cat in a business district. Hard for naysayers to continue saying no when a video...

I wouldn't be without my Screwgun. It doesn't have the all purpose usefullness of a cordless, but for putting up drywall it can't be beat. The clip that lets it hang on your tool belt while putting...

Harley, to be honest, some of the salesmen at Lowe's and other big boxes will quote you prices at Sq. ft. when what they actually mean is lineal feet. I'm not saying that's what happened in this...

Alex, Weight is sometimes needed to hold the sink down, but I often found that I did not need it. Even pressure with your hands should do the trick.

I'd be leary of weighting that particular...

How much of the lip will sit on top of the granite? I installed granite and sinks for years. We always used 100% silicone in self rimming and undermount sinks. On rare occasions when the cutout was...

After fumbling with some bowl-to-toilet connector bolts that were 20 years corroded and coated with blue drop in mess for nearly 2 hours, I found myself with two bent bolts that were going nowhere. ...

Hey,

Thanks to everyone for the input.

Curt, I've only read of the problem, I haven't experienced it. I just took the whole router with me to the store and it doesn't appear as though it...

Before I get started, I just wanted to let people know that I have searched past threads and received invaluable information from them; so thank you to everyone that has already indirectly guided me....

It'll be interesting to see what type of granite they use. I'm betting on absolute black.

Also, I believe most home installations of granite countertops tend to be 3cm (~1 3/16"), though there...

I ended up upgrading to the master system because it's so much better/faster for repetitive tasks. I still switch it out for the simple jig and clamp set for oddly located pocket screws. If you buy...

Jason, I've worked with stone for a few years. Your problem is common and fortunately easy to fix. When we get calls to "fix" hazy tops, 9 times out of 10 it's because people have been waxing them or...

Joe, another interesting idea (For myself anyway-maybe Josh, too) was the flight medic. I'm lucky enough to live in an area where Lifeflight/Lifenet helicopters operate and have been able to ride in...

Hi Joe,

I want to start off by saying I don't want to debate anything about kidneys. I can say that I was in a similar situation, but I was applying for the fire department (Here, you have to...

Thanks guys. After some research, I've decided to go with PEX. The DIY forums and the tractorbynet forums went into minute detail, which was a good read.

Most the forums seem to reiterate a...

I was wondering if anybody here had any experience running PEX for their plumbing. I'm not sure if it will meet code requirements here, but I'm calling to check tomorrow. The reason I'm leaning...

I work in a stone and tile shop. I wish you the best of luck. Although not the ideal substrate, I have heard of it working. I've never actually seen it work, just heard about it. I am bias because of...

Hi Steve,

I work in a Stone and Tile shop. You'll always have a little bit of chipping when cutting. If it's too much, I would suggest buying a new blade, as mentioned before. The tape idea helps...
