what's the distance from ceiling to top of nice looking arch? Put the header behind the arch. That is between the two facings. If that makes sense. You may have to adjust curve of arch when you add 2x's on each side. I do like the look of whatcha got there. Baring wall? Is that like those...

naive (my notifications aren't keeping up with postings, last notification I had said meditation I was gonna post just this...

You removed thermo wothout disconnecting any wires? Could be there is exposed wire in cable, movement of thermo caused it to contact another "hot" wire blowing fuze. Could be control wires in contact that don't blow fuse but "confuse" thermo. Check connections to thermo for tightness and over...

I got no idea about the cost of anything in your area or situation. You're going to have to do some math, get some estimates. If you can afford it, you really can't go wrong with increasing the size of house. Get a bigger kitchen, which every one wants, bigger bath, even a second bath. Those...

Any chance you can run new lines, including drain, inside cabinets way towards the back? Tie new sink drain into present location. Hide them behind a false back with enough ventilation to let room air in. Extend new drain a bit past sink with a 45 el on end to outside so you can have a clean...

Either extending the oundation upwards, your "concrete sill plate, or replacing the sill with PT 2x's is gonna work. Be sure to use proper joist hangers that support bottoms of joists and "fill every hole" a hanger nail or screw in every hole in the hanger. Note thatholes that are manufacturing...

What? You guys are quick. OK then, lemon-> tart. (That could lead us down a path more twisted than mammary lane.

Thanks for the mammary, if we're not careful it could get udderly reidiculous, sum 1 could lose there highly respected high paying job as admodestrator. Luckily piper played it safe. Milk.

And as red sez, "Any tool can be the right tool."
