True. That and the $17 arbor for it. But it's the right tool- we agree. I had to drill many 3" holes in the stucco soffit of my garage last week. Stripped the teeth off a nice bi-metal hole saw by the second hole. Nothing that couldn't be fixed with a $50 carbide version. :mad:

Unless the discussion is about the "vice squad". The thread title of "Vice on Craigslist" reflects the reputation of CL.

BTW- Schalge has a very groovy system that is controlled via ip. One can control one's locks via internet browser from anywhere in the world, including setting temp passwords or unlocking. Buddy of mine has a business with multiple areas of access. There's a monthly fee that's about $10 or 20...

I have three of these Emtek: handlesets.com has them- don't be put off by the list price, enter coupon code EMTEK and the price drops a LOT. They use a Schlage blank and you can order them keyed to your key number. I also use a double-cylinder deadbolt when I'll be away for a few days.

Frog Tape.

97k. I live in San Diego. Can't buy anything for that- NOTHING.

Tell us more, please.

Ah. Thank you, and I'm flattered to be your 2001th post. Cue music: "Also sprach Zarathustra"

On previous threads, this light fixture comes up as popular for garages/shops. Sounds good to me. This particular model runs $39.86. In my area, HD has a different version in the stores with what I assume is a commercial/industrial ballast, as it's dual-voltage 120/277. It sells for about $20...

FYI: Sirius/XM pricing is notoriously wonky. They'll get you started with a promotional price- $25 for 6 months (I'd have to check), but will then automatically renew at the FULL rate- something stupid like $10 or 12 after the promo period. I enjoy the programming, and our family has 4...

Is the block filled or hollow?

Well, they ate the budget for it anyway. 300 square foot detached with subterranean and dry wood termites. Found them when I demo'ed the sheetrock. Two companies say the same thing- drill the slab and poison the ground underneath, then bag it and fumigate. $1400 So much for my bitchen floor. :mad:

There's another thread on a $179 deal- do a search.

Yeah, I see your point. If I do tile, I could/must protect the floor during the rest of the project. If I do the poly with a cove, the sheetrock will have to hit the slab and go in first. Hmmm

If flooring goes first, I'll be unable to "cove" the flooring up the side of the sheetrock (if I use a professionally applied polyaspartic). If I use tile, I'd be tempted to put the floor down first to avoid a low gap around the wall that could hold liquids. But the prep for either floor will be...

Thanks, everyone. Think I'll keep it simple for now.

It did, I edited to correct my mistake. 1976

Or worse yet, crush the side of the can instead of pierce the top? I can remember working at a Shell service station (that's NOT a "gas station") and dripping oil on a hot exhaust manifold while adding oil to a customer's car during a fill up. Smoking like crazy from under the hood, the...

He hates the cans!

Several years ago, I had a motion-detecting wall switch that would automatically turn the lights on when I walked into the garage. Worked a treat. But when I added a few more lights to the circuit, it failed, and a cursory exam of the rating told me why- it was simply not rated for that much...
