    Free Quartz

    Here's the short version. "I need space in my garage." It's getting colder and my COPD makes it harder to go outside to get in the car when it nears freezing. Have been trying to sell a 38x96" piece of quartz. Color is Cosmo toffee. It is a remnant from our kitchen counter job. Smaller piece...

    Surface! Surface,! Surface!

    Added the submarine to my grandson's pier bed! Doesn't look much like the six I served on but he's enjoying it; expecially the pictures behind the portholes! Can't figure out how to get the pic from my gallery?

    Pier Bed for Grandson

    I'm not one of the Master Craftsmen that most of you are but I do have some fun with wood. My daugheter asked me to make a submarine bed for my 2+ grandson.

    The bed that Grampa made

    Most of the work I see on this site is amazing! You guys are craftsmen. I, on the other hand, can occasionally "make something out of wood." It's not usually a work of art but I do have fun. I recently found a bunk bed plan in the Lowe's magazine. I wanted to make the set for my grandson but...

    Lowe's Military Discount?

    At my local Lowe's I can get a 10% discount by showing my retired Navy ID. The discount is not posted or advertized anywhere....you need to ask for it and be prepared to wait while an "authorized person" puts in a code. I do not know if this is a corporate policy or a local program! My guess is...
