Yes I am going to build the shed myself. It will be an 8x10 for a lawn mower and garden tools.

Those rates are for the Consumer Credit Card. The Project Loan Card is different. They fund the card with whatever amount you request and then you have 6 months to spend it. You make set monthly payments http://www.homedepot.com/c/Project_Loan The "someone else in my house" is referring to...

I understand debt to income ratio. Mine is under 30% which I think is acceptable. So nobody here has one? Or has applied and been denied?

I was attracted to it because of the fairly low interest rate and no prepayment penalty. I got denied and so did someone else in my house who has good credit (720+)

ScottsGT, to answer your question, I am 28. I just inherited my first set of tools. This all started because I wanted to reorganize my garage. It turned in to me finding a passion of fixing/building things. 3 weeks ago I couldn't have told you what a miter saw is. Thanks for all the...

I'm just beginning to learn about tools/fixing/building things. My dad is the most un handy person alive. Has never even owned a drill or any power tools. SO I am learning on the fly basically. I built 2 workbenches and some shelves. Things can never seem to be square or level or pieces fit...
