    Quick fix or just leave it?

    It appears that one of the boards used in the concrete joint is rotted out. I'm not surprised, considering the other issues my garage has. My question: is there a viable, cheap quick fix? Or should I wait until I have the $$$ to do it right? Right now, my first goal is saving up to replace the...

    HF Tape Measure

    So, I bought a tape measure from HF... I figured it was something you couldn't screw up. I was wrong. After pulling the tape out about 6 feet and locking it to mark some wood, I released the lock thinking it would roll back up. Instead, it decided to shoot all 25 feet out. I (usually) only...
