The movie Fried Green Tomatoes mixes these two elements perfectly :)
Those look very sharp indeed.
I ran into the same problem when we had LED can lights put into our ceiling in a couple of rooms. Our problem was humming and I had to try several different dimmable switches until I found one that...
That is very sharp looking. You selected some very nice walnut, even if it will get covered up over the years. It contrasts nicely with the chrome.
I guess I'm still old school also. I have the Makita job-site radio so I listen to my local radio stations and can then take it if I'm working outside. Uses an 18V battery or AC. I can also plug an...
I live just a couple miles from there and finally went a couple years ago. It's definitely a must see on any visitors list.
I just put it on the ground and stomp on it. Free and you can smash it into any shape you want. :) I hadn't heard that some companies now don't want them smashed like pucks.
We get voles quite often living next to a woods. I use a regular snap mousetrap, set it next to the vole hole and put a pail or pot over it to protect it/keep it dark. I've caught quite a few of them...
I use brushing lacquer for just about all my projects which are primarily cherry and walnut. For me it works well.
I bought an HP Color LaserJet 1600 about 7 years ago that has given me no problems at all. We were printing a lot of color and b/w and the inkjet printer was just getting too expensive per page, plus...
My aunt gave my a Handy Andy set for Christmas when I was probably 6 or so, would've been early 1970's. I think it came in a wooden box. I'm pretty sure my mom still has the picture of me with it in...
The 6-7 or 8-10 MPG is usually not pulling so decrease that by a few MPG when towing your car. My buddy with the class A said even with his diesel pusher, when he towed, he would get about 6 MPG....
Larry, We watch Going RV on the GAC channel (and there may be others) that show the typical "we'll look at 3 and pick 1" formula. My wife and I are also looking at the possibility of the RV lifestyle...
I just discovered Podcasts a couple months ago myself. So far I regularly listen to: Freakanomics and Dave Ramsey and a few church related ones. I also just started posting our church's weekly...
About 10 years ago I started selling some of my items so I could afford to buy tools and it turned into a small business. I still have a full-time job so I only have nights and weekends available...
We spent 5 days at Yosemite a few years ago. Definitely worth the visit. We rented a house about 45 minutes away in Mariposa. It was kind of a pain to drive back and forth each day but it was nice to...
Count me in please.
Attached is a pic showing the area. The existing hearth is brick standing on end which we will leave in place. You can see the tape lines where we estimate an additional stone slab or tile will be...
Jamie, We are going to extend a stone hearth out to about 2'-3' as the current brick step/hearth is barely 16" in a half-circle-ish shape. We'll have to play with some options for appearance and...
Thanks Mike. We previously had a gas fireplace here but it never put out the level of heat that the wood burner is. We are going to select a USA made product as we've read too much about potential...
We are beginning to remodel our kitchen this month and in the process will replace the entire first floor, ~1200 sf with OSB subfloor and 16 OC joists, with either an engineered wood or solid wood...
Neil, thanks for your detailed reply. After going to a couple of granite places, we've narrowed it down to a Cambria quartz and one or two granite patterns we like. The sink size was no issue for...
I usually try to do my glue-ups before I clean up the shop for the night and then they are ready for the next day so typically 24 hours. I also try to plan out any weekend work so a glue-up can sit...
My co-worker was on vacation a couple of years ago to a beachfront area and apparently got hooked into one of those timeshare deals walking by on the boardwalk. They were probably offering a free...
