Hi Guys and Gals, The wife wants the washer/dryer moved upstairs. The spot it will be going is right next to a sink, and opposite wall of the bathtub drain. Is it possible to "T" off one of those drain pipes and direct the washing machine to also drain there? Walls are gutted open, so...

Thanks...I appreciate all the info, guidance, tips and concern. After more research, I have done a preliminary "load calculation" based on my square footage. calculations give me ~40 amps...so ya, I guess I was way off. I've looked up local codes for electric. Still am...there are a lot. Romex...

I need to replace a rotted window. The window itself rotted to pieces, not the framing or sill. Anyone have any opinions on Crestline windows from Menards? worth it or stay away? I found an exact match to my measurements so I'd like to use this window if I can so I don't have to reframe...

let's see if this works now...Still working on the stairs, the small orange cabinet I built for a media cab/kids toy storage, window seat opens for storage, but waiting on my mom to sew a cushion for it. put in a pic of the old porch just for a comparison. Wainscoting panels were a real bitch...

I'm good on replacements. Don't have any more that need to be replaced. Couple that have a small crack in them, but can't be seen from standing on the ground and they are tucked in under the soffit way up high. I'll prob just smear some caulk over the crack to keep water from seeping in I wish I...

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome...

Havasu...can't seem to upload any pics. even resized them and it keeps failing. I'll figure it out and post em up later.
