    Question on sistering rafters

    Hey guys I have a cracked 2x6 rafter in my screened in porch. In the past when I've sistered rafters I've used construction adhesive to bond the sistered rafter to the damaged one, along with bolts. These rafters are all painted though, in a yellow latex paint. Do I have to somehow strip...

    Nomination for "Worst Automotive Maintenance Feature Ever"

    How do you guys paint small stuff in your garage?

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Re: What did you do "IN" your garage today? I'm going all Makita. That impact is incredible and I wired 3 garages with that white drill - it is incredible. With the right ship augur bit it will eat nails. I have a million pics but no thread yet...On my to-do list!

    I like this. So you just put stuff on that grate, turn on the fan and fire away? I think I might have to steal this idea. Do you break it down to store it?

    I can't fully picture your setup but I love the idea of a range hood.
