Just have to finish it. Not sure what I want to use. Any ideas? I tend to stick with polyurethane, I think that you can't go wrong with that. But I'm always curious to know how other finishes might work, such as oils Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 I built this tough rack. And used my Ridgid Line locator to trace a sprinkler line that was DOA. found the valves, buried under 4" of soil and grass. But didn't mess with the valve yet. Just unburied for a future project. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigmikez Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 13 hours ago, DaveJr. said: So as I started to say last week, my dad and I replaced a deck up at our hunting camp. We built one last year and we decided it was time to replace the current one. It took us 3 days, one hospital visit and a hell of a lot of screws. Used almost all DeWalt 20V max tools with some exceptions. 2' + 4' Stabila levels, craftsman router, porter cable miter saw. So here are the pictures from start to finish. We will let it weather a few weeks and stain it the same color as the other one in the background of some of the pics. Hope you like it. dude Dave came out awesome! and im lovin the pic the impact with the flag flying high in the back ground! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dano123 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 I have 1.13 acres and I push mow it. That large yard and wood pile are my neighbors, past my patio is woods so that cuts way down on my mowing. Those solar lights are terrible! I have to get a decent set this year. Those are garden beds for now, once I get my main garden setup they will be flower beds. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dano123 Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 The land is just beautiful where you live Dano! I am sure your mowing all that with a riding mower too, I haven't seen the whole property but I am guessing you own a couple of acers. good job with the flower bed, I like those steps though. Have you noticed that those solar lights don't last past 2 years? lol As you can kinda see half of my lot is woods. I have the tan roof on my house, garage and patio...

Foneguy Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Ok ... It worked very well .. Just some small tweeks, but this is the design. i used 2x3 vinyl downspout and a flexible elbow because it's lightweight. After I bent the elbow to correct angle, I re-enforced it with a piece of string so the air flow wouldn't straighten it out. Screwed and duct taped all joints to retain air flow. i am going to get another nozzle from STIHL so I can quick change.... 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveJr. Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 As some of you may have heard, I was building a workbench and a table for my drill press today. The top of the workbench in the picture is actually for the bottom shelf. I am getting a piece of 2 inch thick butcher block to go on top. I am also going to add 4 casters to the workbench. $43 for lumber, plus another maybe $25 for casters .I also made a makeshift clamp rack on the sides of the drill press table to get them off the floor. Only took a couple hours. The work bench measure 3'x5' and the table measure 16" x 19" 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99_XC600 Posted April 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 Now that the Sunroom and Kitchen is done. I spent the majority of the day outside. I felt liberated!! Broke out the Scott's drop spreader and spread some milogornite on the yard and then grabbed the Greenworks power washer and cleaned up the front steps. Spread some mulch and then washed and vacuumed both vehicles. Felt great to be outside. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickyMcGrath Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 I had to change out my two toilets. One flange had to be dropped about 3/8" due to new floors. Luckily, whoever plumbed the house didn't use primer on the flange and it wasn't glued properly. Few scores with a Diablo recip blade and a few taps with a hammer and it came right off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should get the m18 3/8 to go with it. I absolutely love mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 204pc Dewalt mechanic set very very awesome kit crew I got it on Black Friday a couple years back when they first released I think people were very hesitant to buy because they weren't used to seeing dewalt brand on mechanic tools but guys seriously it's an awesome kit to have its definitely paid for itself x10's full 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
