No need to apologize here, use whatever you feel is best for your projects. 👍

Fyi...Drywall screws will not hold up to weather. They rust fast. Don't get me wrong, I use them in certain situations also but if I'm building something for strength (framing nails or screws) or longevity in weather, go galvanized or exterior rated especially anything pressure treated. As long...

I like the top. And neat idea for quick handles... I'll be using that. I rip a lot of 2x2's for small project framing and usually just pitch the fork notch. 👍

I thought the honey lovers would like it 😉 I mainly saved it for the build detail. I think the electronics is way overboard, tho. A simple small lamp cord and thermo cube does the same but the you tubers gotta go above and beyond constantly for subscribers so I get that. I have an extra full...

Speaking of cold shops, one of my first small pallet projects for this year needs to be a couple heated cabinets for my paints, stains, glues, and automotive sprays, etc. But they can also be used for cordless battery's also. Here's a couple diy videos I've saved for myself. Here's one for...

Wanted to share a couple other ideas for those scouring the wastelands. I collect shelves and cabinets/file cabinets made out of the cheap press board etc. The shelves make great poop boards if set flat side by side with a few backer/connector boards for support and trim for lip to hold bedding...

Yes ma'am. Michigan bred. Born and raised near Saginaw, so always proud to be a troll. (For those that don't know that reference.. those of us in lower Mi live under a bridge) I just got back this year after 3 years in West Virginia. The mountains and double rainbows I've seen were beautiful...

I like your comment thinking "I don't get it". Took me about an hour and then it hit... I think I needed coffee to jumpstart my brain for the day. #facepalm 😂

Pole barn... I'm sorry. My native construction language. Sorry if my language is confusing. I live in the country with livestock and cornfields but work in and around 2 of the biggest cities in Michigan, one being the state capital (Lansing) and the other is Ann Arbor which is University of...

Hydro. I'm not too familiar with in floor heat as this was actually the first time I had done it. But it was a fun build. Led strips surrounding the ceiling and stereo system for the diner area. I found a few more pics. My pics are out of sync on phone. I mentioned the walk in shower knowing I...

Pole barn... I'm sorry. My native construction language. Here's pics of a different barn just to show what I'm referring to.

I built a 40x60 barn a few years ago for the owner of a local Waste Management land fill that was all in floor heat. It was the nicest barn I've ever built. (500k build).. Second floor loft, big for his RV and restored Trash trucks, walk in shower, and diner style kitchen. A few pics I still...

Pro tip #1.... Just kidding, I'm not a pro. 🤪 I'm not sure why it didn't dawn on me to share this, but I've been out a few times collecting pallets and I've found Flooring stores have pallets with sheets of plywood nailed on them. Usually around 38-39" wide to 38-50" long and usually 3/8-1/2"...

Your 2 best options are your torpedo and the wood stove. I would run the torpedo just be mindful of CO. Crack a window or door and watch for headaches. For the long haul, I'd run the torpedo to bring it up to temp fast and fire up the wood stove in the process. Do what you gotta do to bring the...

Wow, that sucks. I'm so sorry this happened to you. Are you able to to get a list together and get a report filed? Possible to make an Insurance claim? Unsure of your process being in Greece but around here it's a long shot at best, unlikely to recover anything and insurance is a joke.

It's just a shorts, but thought I'd share it...

Izzy Swan is a legend. Builds some neat stuff.

Yes you are correct. That is a very good point. I've done quite a bit a drywall myself but never nailed it, only screws. I was taught to just dimple the paper on drywall enough to get screws just under surface. Going too far even with a screw is the same as not having a screw there at all. As...

The Rigid gun will run 3" screws on auto but I've never in my 25+ years in construction had an employer say " Here, use these. " Couldn't fathom the cost of a box of them.
