I thought I was having a mold problem with grout that wouldn't respond to bleach or mold chemicals. Closer inspection suggested that pan mud had seeped up through the tile gaps when they set the floor tile (asphalt and mortar pan, like the old days). The grout was too thin to hide the mortar...

I'd vote for permission, y'alls permit process must be really bad to be worse than than the unlubed ***** of consequences?

I'd wonder about non obvious damage where that Frame was 'backstopped' when the forks speared it. Be glad you were afforded a replacement piece. Use it (I know it SEEMS like a $700 hit, but it's really just you being made whole : )

I've looked at the pictures on my laptop (instead of my phone), and I still can't understand what they did. I am not an engineer, but I have framed according to plans. I have also just framed away without blueprints or plans : ) When the OP gets back from his trip, hopefully he can sketch...

Really just a 'curtain wall'. Could be in a mobile home, a manufactured home or a stick built home. Can be framed in 2x3 or 2x4 (or even 2x6 I guess). That sounds correct, and I was going to ask about that (reading through the thread). But I'm now wondering why there are cables at all... I...

My dad always said the most important thing in real estate was 'timing, timing, timing'. I didn't hear everyone else's first rule until I was in my late 20's. Dad was always trying to leverage everything : )

The rumor around here (Southern CA) is that if you break an old valve on the city side of the meter, the city repair the broken valve and bill you. And their crews aren't cheap.

yup. I've seen 'em a stick and I've seen 'em on chain : )

My house is 100 years old, furnished appropiately with many of my grandmother's 80 year old furnitures ('pieces' sounds too grey pouponish for me : ) If I had a straight staircase I might pony up to maintain the consistency (I know my wife would).

$85 each is pretty fancy

I've usd this on brick. It is spendy but relatively clean. We culdn't bring a pressure washer inside but wanted to clean 50 year old chimney brick. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CFLE2UQ?tag=atomicindus08-20

I thought of this thread after seeing this. There were other related discussions including one that showed a warehouse of counterfeit parts (I had no idea):

I have seen import vises like that in service for years. I have seen a thread about the USA OG that was cloned. But my google skills are lacking : (
