My house, built in 1977, has the lineset for the upstairs system buried in an interior wall. I know when I had both systems replaced twelve years ago, they replaced the downstairs lineset; not sure about the upper one. Apparently, it doesn't leak though. *knocks wood*

Story of my life. :wtf: I can install an agricultural lighting system, but the building may not be in service long enough to make that make sense. This is a system I've used before: https://www.once.group/all-products/?swoof=1&product_cat=broiler-lighting&paged=1 The control box does the...

Looking for a light timer with dimmer for an agricultural application. We want to control the lighting in a totally-enclosed poultry house (no exterior light gets in). The idea is that the light comes on at a certain time in the morning and gradually brightens to full value over 30 minutes or...

3000 square feet of popcorn ceilings. A day and a half of masking, and 3 hours of spraying and the job is done. Much faster than rolling (even though that ceiling couldn't be rolled, even if I wanted to...) I got the sprayer for free, so it was well worth it. I've since used it outdoors, and...

That Durham cabinet is now $112 at Amazon, but $75 at Zoro. Wait on a coupon, and it should be just right. I use Durham stuff at work, and it's just fine.

I have an older Graco sprayer that someone gave me...kind of likethis: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Graco-Prolts-170-Electric-Stationary-Airless-Paint-Sprayer/1000004900 I've used it for exterior spraying,and it's great. But obviously I'm no pro - probably would have helped to do a bit of...

I've always found that huffing the gold paint gives the best buzz...

I just put in a back door...

Ha! I'm going to be a contrarian. I've got the ceiling for a lift, but I don't have the square footage. I'd rather not spend all my time dodging around the posts that would constantly be in my way for the 80% of the time I don't have a car up in the air. Instead, I've got all the time in the...

I didn't know silver and copper were magnetic. You learn something new here every day on GJ. Oh, by the way, you can get a basket full of AA batteries by cutting open a 6V lantern battery. Check it out on Youtube.

I had my kitchen renovated...al new TR outlets. I can't tell the difference plugging things in between them and the old ones.

I got one of those 18" fluorescent stick lights. GE Bright Stik? (That's an LED thing now, but I think that was the name). Screwed it to the top and ran the cord out a hole. Works fine.

But not on the flat file drawer units I need... :(

What's the difference between a double pole breaker and two singles with a handle tie?

Doesn't the vertical part defeat the purpose of the shiplap?
