Mine don't have GFCI breakers. Installed by a very experienced electrician and State inspected.

I think your talking about a "rain screen" Fine Homebuilding has an article today about them...

I've been using 2x4 curbs ( KD Fir) with drywall and Kerdi for the last 16 years with zero problems. Sometimes I rip the 2x's down if I'm using a pair of bullnose tiles on the curb and need a particular net width. The "age in place" house I'm building now will have 2 curb-less showers. My...

Maybe Pierce County is more lenient than Whatcom County or San Juan County but I wouldn't think about doing any "clearing" with out at least a land disturbance permit and probably a critical areas survey. Features, such as wetlands, aren't always obvious. They're a habitat basically and can be...

I resurrected this abandoned shop project.

Your copper and brass look awful, have you checked the PH of your water? I don't believe hard water has anything to do with your corrosion. I've been using PEX A from Uponor (Wirsbo) with EP expansion fittings exclusively for the past 15 years, the installation is foolproof and I have had -0-...

I'm a plumber and a builder, I also do my own tile work, actually, when I build houses for myself, as I'm doing right now, I do everything solo, with the exception of the Electrical, heating, insulation, and drywall.

12" is fine. I put a 2x flat at the back of the stud bay to attach the valve to. With a Delta valve the depth is perfect for 1/2" drywall, Kerdi Membrane and 3/8" tile.

It's Radiata Pine from China. The top ply is very thin and brittle, it has voids. Russian BB is twice as good, of course it costs twice as much.

I'm a General Contractor I have a lot of M12 Milwaukee; hackzall, PEX expansion tool, drills, drivers, stapler, caulk gun, multi tool. I have 18V Makita drills and drivers, 36 V Makita circular saw, Makita chop saws, compressors, planer, routers, angle grinders, biscuit joiner, sanders. I have...

This is what you want. No filter to change.

It's a B2650 25 hp. I dug out and moved a bunch of rocks like this leveling this 1/4 acre lot. You can do just about anything with a small machine, it just takes more time.

That stands for "Tractor loader Backhoe"

I have a Bostich Framing Nailer with an interchangeable positive placement tip. It comes in handy since lot of hangers require 16d nails. I also have a Strap Shot for shooting Tico nails, it fits in much smaller spaces.

I second the rollback suggestion. Well worth the money. When I was trucking we used local tow companies quite often when we stacked cars in our trailer or to get things to the ground that were over our lift gate capacity, like CT Scanners.

You could raise your LVL's to top of joist and hang them off of it. Of course, if you're using engineered joists just make them full length.

I have four Makita 18V drills/drivers and two Milwaukee M12's I only use the Makita's when I can't find a Milwaukee. And I'll waste a lot of time looking.

Nice! I love cabovers. Here's my '91 Fuso :

You can dig it out with a little backhoe or excavator, it just takes more time. This Cedar stump took about half a day. My little Kubota can barely lift it.

Are you using stranded wire for the comm lines?
