    Sears: 'Burning cash,' closing stores

    I wonder if perhaps Sears might be transitioning to an online-only presence? They already sell many thing for less online then in a store.Thew K-mart brand has really been pushing online as well. For instance,you can buy the Craftsman riding mowers for much less online than you can in the stores.

    Would it be wise to use plywood instead of Sheetrock in bathroom?

    when you put up sheetrock,they say to keep the seams above and below the window,instead of lining them up with the edges.that should help with the cracking problem.Most of the sheet rock you see,they patch it in above the windows and doors,then it cracks.Ideally,the seam should be centered above...

    Installing 3/8" engineered flooring? 18ga or 20ga nailer?

    We tried Laminate in our kitchen,didn't work out well at all.Not sure if all of it is this way,but ours said to not expose it to wet.Around the kitchen sink area it got wet and un-laminated.Ended up taking it all out and going back to the old linoleum underneath.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    I installed an entry door,working on shelves now.Cold weather on the way here,so figured I'd get a way in and out without letting all the heat out.
