    Any good reason not to drill utility holes in joist blocking ?

    I can't think of any. This is in my house built beam on (lots of) piers. The floor is stick-framed (vs I-joist or truss) with solid blocking between the joists where the joists sit on the main beam. I intend to drill holes through the blocking to pass new electrical and/or plumbing runs...

    Universal Mobile Base @ NT....any good ?

    Hi guys & gals, I saw that Northern Tool has this mobile base on sale this weekend and wondered if anyone has used it and can vouch for it's value or lack thereof. I realize there may be better ones out there, but for $29 bucks, I can't build one for less using HF casters and plywood. My...

    Good Customer Service - Supergrit

    I recently had a need to complain about a purchase I made from Supergrit. I sent my complaint via the email address I found in the "contact us" section of their web site. Rather than respond by email, a very nice lady named Laura called me to discuss it and "make it right". Bottom line: I was...

    Is this birch good for lumber?

    I have a number of trees of my property that I hope to one day timber into useful wood. For right now I am interested in birch. Previously I have felled and attempted to lumber (by hand) one of my medium sized (aprox. 7-8 inch Diameter) birches only to find that it had more knots in it than my...

    We have a good problem and help is needed

    The good new is we look like we will have a record crowd for this year's picnic. The sign-up is pushing 160 with a few days to go for sign-ups. The bad news is we could use some more help with setup and clean up duties. Any one who can lend a hand will be greatly appreciated. Even if just...

    Why stain good wood?

    Just a hypothetical question for all of you folks. I'm a big fan of not staining wood, preferring to let the natural appearance of the color/grain/figure be the showcase, but sometimes you want to stain it in order to accent those characteristics. Here's an example. A piece of fir from a...
