As I’m sure you’d like to have as much first floor room as possible, I’d look at closing in that opening in the ceiling totally and put in a door or hinged panel on the gable end of the second floor. Either front or back and use either a ladder or build a set of stairs if you were to put the...

I have a good size garage and shop. Not a hoarder but it is filled with all kinds of tools and materials. I’ve instructed the wife, should I croak before her, pull your stuff aside and call the auctioneer. Too easy.

Go to a RV dealer. As for Dicor used for sealing RV roofs. Killer stuff. Clean your gutters well first.

Just picked one of these up a couple months ago. Sweet item. Had my roof replaced and contractor had these in metal, commercial grade. Looked on the net and found the yellow plastic one. Good enough for my use.

If you could swing this, this is how I did a pour similar to yours. I bought the Harbor Freight electric concrete mixer when it was on sale. I used it for about 40 bags or so and was able to sell it for like 40 bucks less than I paid for it. Certainly saved a lot of energy doing it that way...

Ace hardware. They’re selling craftsman stuff now. They could probably order you one.

So true and appreciate him. His wife also works there and knows all the products like the back of her hand.

Well I decided to treat myself with a upgrade. Last year I bought a BR700. Really liked it and tons of whop. But in having it I discovered the 800 with the side pull would be the cat’s meow in restarting it while on my back. So went to my dealer who I get along with great to see what he...

Tks for those 2 points. Like hearing real users input.

What’s the part of the side pull start that you don’t like. I bought the 700 last fall and wish I would have spent extra for the 800 just to have the side pull. In fact going to the dealer Monday to ck on trading up.

Have a Lincoln mig welder in my garage. Although I have 220v in my garage, I had purchased a 110v welder in case I ever needed to take it somewhere away from my garage. Specifically a Lincoln SP-135 Plus. I know this size of machine isn’t built to weld 1/4” stock, but was wondering this. If I...

I believe you’ll find that Trex and the like recommend stringers no further than 12” apart.

If you didn’t have to adjust the wheels on your mower after installing the new engine, then the blade is approx the same height as when on the old engine.

The frame you make to sit your window into should be a quarter inch larger for the height and width. For the trim to hold the window in place you can just take some nice two by fours and rip strips that are 1/2 inch by three-quarter inch to hold in your new windows. If you don’t have a tablesaw...

Money wise, I’d spend the extra 900 bucks not to have a post. The 18” height is a good bit of drop thought. What would be the distance from the floor to the bottom of the beam. And can the beam be recessed up into the ceiling and your joints tied into it?

It’s good that you have relocated the downspouts and probably what has happened is that the corner of the footers as possibly cracked and settled a bit. I will work on removing that vegetation and probably just leave it as is. The only real fix to this would be greasing up the roof, removing all...

Looks like your lower side brackets need adjusting to move the lower panels closer to the door opening. The one that we can see in the pic and the one below it

I used tongue and grooved edge 4x8 osb, 5/8” I believe. Tuff and sturdy.

Try a periodic coat of Johnson paste wax in the yellow can. Really helps against rust, helps the wood glide across the table saw and jointer and won’t screw up any thing in the wood when you stain or whatever

Geez still has wood fibers. About 12 years ago I ripped off my aging wood that despite much mainly, looked like ****. I bought 100% vinyl, Azek. Not sorry at all.
