RE: Deck, but no footers allowed!

Char, If you cannot find the ones at lowes or the depot, you can buy a bag of concrete and cast your own. I made some for our deck 15 years ago. All I did was form up a 12"x12" square with 2x4 and fill the form with concrete. It has held up well so far. Greg

RE: Under The Kitchen Sink!

RE: doorway question

Brad, A lot depends on how your home is built. There may or may not be enough room to easily put a full size door in with out some reconstrusting. You will need at the very least a double top header so make sure you have enough room to put that in. Greg

RE: Cinder block or Metal jackstands?

Hi, Another new family member. Personally I would go the concrete block route if for no other reason a steel jack stand will eventually rust, plus I think properly installed blocks will be more stable. Greg

RE: anyone use Congoleum flooring?

RE: took 10 years to ask this...

This is strictly a guess, but cathedral ceilings were probably an option, so to save a little money it was ordered with flat ceilings for the "lesser used" rooms. Greg

RE: Pex crimper

Mark does have a few different styles of crimpers an different price ranges. I just bought the type that uses vise grips, I don't do that much to justify $100. set, and his prices are comparable with E bay. Greg

RE: American Idol predictions for thursday

I agree JD. I have followed it from the first season, but this year I just cannot get into it. Perhaps 3 days a week is just too much, or as you say it is no longer about talent. Greg
