Good one, Dick. :)

If you're looking for something thats not a barbecue-style rub, we use the 21-Gun Salute seasoning mix from Trader Joes.

Have any of the magazines done comparison testings?

Well I've used porch and garage floor paint outside, successfully. And they do make a concrete "stain" (Home Depot) that I haven't used. Yeah they don't last forever, but long enough. I dont know...

Why not just paint the floor too?

Thanks for input everyone . What Terry said rings a bell as to why they had a poor rep early on. I had the chemicals (Termidor) injected around the perimeter of the house several years ago when I...

Anybody have experience with termite bait stations for their home? When I first looked into them years ago, they had a reputation as ineffective. But now I hear they are better.

I had chemical...

How about making it out of blue & white tiles, with a nice wood frame around it? Unless, you're actually cutting on it, of course.

It was probably said in earlier threads you may have seen. What are you making? Large flat surfaces like table tops? Yeah a 6" is good. Smaller pieces with edges and a variety of surfaces - 5". ...

There used to be a scam around here where guys would offer to oil your cedar shingle (aka kindling) roofs for $100 or so. TV exposed some as just using water. Fortunately shingles not popular here...

I saw a remodeling crew using one of these at a job site while on a trip to Italy. They were cutting trim. The workers said it was a pretty common tool and were amused that a tourist would be...

I suggest you visit the Acoustic Guitar Forum, where there is a subset of luthiers and knowledgeable repair folks who know a lot about instrument finishing. Its worth knowing about if you're into...

The LTCPs we looked at required you to meet at least two of the five conditions to qualify for payment. We dropped it when the annual premium tripled at age 65.

Yeah, the KC Royals are already using this, and probably other teams. I just haven't been paying much attention to the other teams.

In the AL, the DH is can be anywhere in the batting order. It seems like it is most often an older player who can still hit, or a younger guy who's not as good a fielder to start in the field. But I...

I trim the acid brushes so they are not too wide or have loose hairs. The wood popsicle sticks to scoop a lot of glue quickly - you can get bags of these at hobby stores.

Agree with the rec for Eagle-America bits. Get a basic set. I use most often small roundover bits and straight 1/4 - 3/8" bits with the trimmer. My understanding is that a lot of bit brands are...

Thanks guys. I hadn't thought about a water-based finish - that's a good idea.

Are there certain finishes that have problems with fabrics like polyester sticking to them even after curing? I am making a quilt rack and I had that problem once before, and once on a table top. I...

Some characters like Sherlock Holmes and Jason Bourne are too good and too popular to not keep them alive. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I'll put in a plug for the Holmes books...

Insurance!

People get hurt on golf courses.
A cousin had a house on a golf course in NM. He had to put up a giant net to deflect the errant balls. Back of the house had many dings and dents on...

Note the parts that you coat with epoxy may end up a different color as the bench fades. I used epoxy to glue up a all-wood outdoor bench, and the places where epoxy squeezed out of joints that I...

I found the official site at medicare.gov to be pretty simple to understand. Even with that information, its making a decision that's difficult. Just make sure you understand the difference...

. . . or removed at the request of the OP.

We've had them around here too. Usually in a Walmart or Target parking lot. But the consensus is that they aren't really playing - its recorded music to which they are "syncing". So be advised.
