nice idea... need to mark where the shelves are aligned so as not to bump them? I will share this idea with my wife - maybe she will want one? Thanks for sharing! ô¿ô

Agreed... take a look at how some other bi-fold door is installed and everything should become clear. Very easy installation.... you just need to check out someone else's door first - then proceed.

Yes, you should be able to add the roof as pictured above. It will just take a little head scratching to put together. I was thinking just like Square Eye... that you didn't have so much room, but after seeing the pictures, you have plenty of room... just need to get started and it will come...

Another caution is also in order... Be extra attentive when insulating around the bay window. This type of window is prone to moisture (condensation) if not properly and completely insulated. Now is the time to add as much insulation as possible... really a hassle if moisture becomes an issue...

Welcome x3:)

There is a caulking made just for this situation (assuming you are dealing with concrete) ... name is "Concrete Crack Sealant" It is made by PL and is self-leveling. You should be able to find it at your local big name hardware store. Just follow the instructions and it works very well. I...

A great work table for shop use... Fold up Ping Pong table... been using one for years. Folds up - has wheels for moving - can clamp to and creates a huge work table. Also, I now wear Mechanic's gloves when sawing. Started using them a few years ago when working on a COLD day - found out that...

Hello Quattro... I saw your post but couldnt find the plans for my table. Ran across them today... This is a set of complete plans with step-by-step directions to build a very nice and very functional router table. I will scan the plans and send them to you if you wish. The plans were developed...

Wow, thanks for that explaination speedy petey. I didn't know that was how to figure how many lights on a breaker. Very good information to know!

Hello and Welcome Even at 50 years, the counter tops should have been screwed on from the underside. You need to lay down inside a base cabinet and look up in the corners with a flashlight. You should see screws that have been added in the brace of the corners. No need to tear up your base...

Hmmmmm... There is not much you can do to take away the rustic look that has been crated by the ceilings in the two rooms. The size and open space will always be very apparent regardless of what you do to the walls, floor or fireplace. I would not be afraid of adding a hardwood floor if you...

Yes, I had the same issue. Neighbor was using the same frequency as I was. There should be some small white switches in a red holder on the rear of the opener. Just flip any one of the switches and you will be on a different frequency... Remember to change the same switch on each of your remote...

Yep, that was a "saw you coming" situation. As mentioned before, when a standard garage door is properly adjusted for easy operation by hand... all that should be needed is a 1/2 hp motor to operate it. You actually may have simply needed new springs. An aside to this is that the removal and...

Hi rsmysore... The last consideration should be how your home will fit in with the neighborhood. You don't want to have the most valuable home in an average neighborhood... this would make selling it difficult and at a lower price. If the completed home will end up with approximately the same...

Go for it... No patents here... let me know if you would like to know how I create mine... could save you some time in the trial-error system. Hope this brings you in some more business.

Welcome Debra... you are correct, we most likely would have advised you to scrap the house and start over. In fact, where to start does seem to be the issue, with so many major things that seem to need repair. You really should at least consider a Modular home to replace the current one. I am...

Is anyone using the "Easy Water No Salt Water Softeners by Freije"? :confused: I like the idea but the price is fairly steep - I would like an honest opinion from a current user before I commit to the purchase of this unit.

Is the underside of the floor accessible? If yes, then I would suggest screwing the pieces down from the underside. This would give you the best of both - clean finish & easy to replace.

I have been building scratch paper boxes for over 10 years. I grew tired of looking for something to write on and realized I was throwing away tons of 8 1/2" x 11" paper only printed on one side. I designed a box and now cut down all my scrap paper to 1/4 of the original. The box can be...

Hello and welcome Layna. Not knowing the size of the cracks, it is very difficult to give a well informed opinion. I have worked with Loctite to fill cracks in many types of materials. I have found it to be an excellent solution to recurring cracks... I would suggest that you use the Exterior...
