Wouldn’t the space between the deck boards be enough for the water to drain away? That is, as long as the deck boards are inning perpendicular to the ledger board

I would also run a line or laser every 4 to 6 courses to make sure you are not running off straight. What I mean is forcing the tongue into the groove further on one end than the other and installing not straight.

Am I correct in thinking you have a flat ceiling with bottom chords of trusses all running the same way? You want to install t n g pine in 4 triangles basically so the t n g will always be running at a 45 degree angle from the bottom chords? If this is the case and you strapped the ceiling...

For the joint I would just use some flat stock, the narrower the better to show off the precision while installing the t n g. Don’t forget to run a chalk line on those diagonal joints. Don’t want to get done and realize it wasn’t straight as an arrow

Just looking at my ceiling and trying to picture the job, may be easier to just go ahead and strap it, otherwise I’m thinking you would need to install blocking around the perimeter, lots of cutting and fitting so not much fun.

Some of this T and groove is ultra thin, I’m wondering if you even need to strap it? No insulation adding weight. If you run into a spot that you need something to fasten to you can always add some blocking flush between the trusses or sister a piece of 2x4 to the side of the truss, that’s if...

Shut your mouth when your talking to me

I guess there’s no hope for the OP

Not sure I grasp your point , are you saying tool trailers are bad? Or good ? The IP was saying he didn’t have room for his tools, also complained of the 75 foot walk to get them and put them away. In my opinion a tool trailers is a must for any contractor, I have a couple friends that are...

Nothing beats having a cargo trailer set up for tools.

You don’t need to put it away till the job is done. I’m a contractor, I didnt take all my tools back out to the tool trailer at the end of every day, just made a nice neat pile of tools on the jobsite. Once the job is done, put them away. That 75 foot walk to put them away is nothing compared to...

One of the first lessons my great grandfather taught me was to put tools away after using them. I was probably about 8

I wasn’t planning on fixing the ramp door on this trailer today. I have been replacing the floors in our living room and kitchen/ new island as well, and was using this trailer that I normally use for duct cleaning. I knew not to step on the ramp door because it had been progressively getting...

I’ve always purchased Dewalt tools. I think I’ve been mixing up Skil and Skilsaw

Yes, it was worm drive. I was not sure if SkilSaw and Skil were the same either. Google search and AI says they are owned by the same company “Chevron” and as of a 2014 rebranding SkilSaw focuses on professional grade high performance saws while Skil targets the DIY/consumer market.

I see the Dewalt on for 698.00 at Home Depot. I have considered SkilSaw as entry level for the past 30 ish years. Looks like they might be upping there game with some professional quality power tools.

That’s a premium price for a 10” table saw. Ryobi is 298.00.

They

Just looking through the Canadian Tire flyer and seen an ad for a SkilSaw 10” table saw on sale for 699.99. I know at one time SkilSaw was a good quality tool but I thought they were only selling sub par tools for the home owner,
