What johnday said! /forums/images/icons/grin.gif You're right about the spacing. I wonder when some company will come up with a half a meter spaced "system".

I have ran into engineered beam floor joists ran at 19" OC, maybe 19 1/2". It was a few years ago and I was playing electrician so I just noticed it in passing. It did make it a little easier to work...

Interesting! But, you know, they make those things with rubber tires and gas stoves and running water these days. /forums/images/icons/grin.gif /forums/images/icons/grin.gif ...

If you could prove that the neighbor is the one responsible for the pile you might get away with bulldozing them back over the property line and then build a wall along the line. Or just walk your...

15 grand, eh? What did you get? Let's see some pictures!

I am going to build a forge with a fire pot and keep the rivet forge for demonstrating. I know where to get a large stand mounted crank blower, I'll probably get that and have it blow through an...

Those old Hay- Buddens were wrought iron with a tool steel top. The anvil is actually three piece, you can see the parting line in the waist and the seam between the top and the lower part. I lucked...

Here's my anvil...it's a 224# Hay- Budden, circa 1899.

And a good post vice. Machinist vices don't live too long when you get to beating the pee out of them.

Nice anvil! /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif How much does it weigh? Now you have to dress the horn and it's recommended that you peen the top and dress the edges. A nice radius on the edges help keep...

You're going to have a cold side and a warm side on that, big potential for condensation which could give you warping and rotting problems. It might not hurt to look for a parts breakdown for that...

Gary, I have never used one of those tools. I wanted to get one but could find nothing but stupid looks when I tried to find one. /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif

I forgot the picture. Freakin' telephone! /forums/images/icons/mad.gif

This one you'd have to do from the outside. When fixing this stuff, remember, caulk and putty and paint make a carpenter what he ain't. /forums/images/icons/wink.gif

Let's try that again.

I just had to remove one strip to pop the window out.

Here is the trim popped off. This one was held on by 2- 6d finishing nails. They must have had it out before and used the nails that survived to put it back.

Here is the trim that holds the window in.

Here is a picture of what's left of the window. You can see the sash weight pulleys. If you ever have to replace the ropes you just have to remove the side trim on the inside and everything is right...

Sometimes it's easier to remove the strips that hold the window assembly in the frame. You then push the window into the room from the outside, after cutting the paint you can drift it out of the...

Where are you at? Down here in Houston, TX. we can dump them at the landfill if they are cut into four sections. The problem with tires at the dump is that they have a tendency to come up out of the...

I don't know a durn thing about it but there is something to think about that might make the decision easier. How old is your existing furnace? If it's only a year or two old an add on might be in...

I have never pulled a 5th wheel RV but I used to drive big rigs for a while. I learned a very important lesson one day that might or might not cross over to RVs. Another driver and I were BS'ing at a...

You only have to upgrade the valve springs on the 12 valve engines. The springs aren't an issue on the 24 valve.

The lift pumps are junk. The pump stage itself is pretty robust, the electric motor part sucks. I just replaced the one on mine, it was around $160. The fuel senders are also failure prone, the fuel...
