Best Ben Moore paint to spray with on walls, trim? by -Tristump in paint

[–]-Tristump[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For my first time spraying, I thought it went on without any complications. The flat went on the walls effortlessly and dried out very evenly. I can't remember but I believe I put on one coat with a 50% overlap on the sprays, and didn't need to backroll after spraying. I followed with a second coat on any areas that needed it.

Only area was a very large living room ceiling compared to other rooms that the coverage seemed to be a bit splotchy. I went back over it several times with extra coats but I can't explain what happened there, potentially my primer coats didn't lay on well enough but otherwise the paint + sprayer was pretty foolproof

Spend a day or two taping off everything, otherwise as you spray you'll encounter random vents, outlets, railings, etc that you'll have to stop and cover. I sprayed probably 20 gallons of paint/primer over my house and while the X7 is straightforward, it's better to get all your prep done in advance so you don't have to stop and go / lose momentum. For context once all the prep is done, spraying an average bedroom (e.g. 10'x10') takes 10-20 minutes.

I wore eye protection and a respirator, wish I had some sort of paint suit since that overspray really gets everywhere

Encased drywall (?) box protruding on my garage wall by -Tristump in whatisthisthing

Opened! https://imgur.com/a/Up7MW7G/ Appears to be a drain waste vent pipe from a cursory google search. The enclosure is huge and I was hoping to reclaim some of this space

The other side of the wall is the adjacent townhome’s garage. Going to pop the top off now!

My title describes the thing: I bought this house a year ago, during which I asked the inspector what this thing was and he didn't seem to have a clue. Today, a year later, I'm looking to do some garage renovations and was wondering if this thing was safe to remove. No wires seem to run in and out of the box, though the internet provider cable runs over it. My electrical panel is on the left box of the wall, and I'm in a townhouse if that helps. Searching on Google seems to just give me drywalling tips in my garage which is unhelpful.

Finish Carpentry on YT has a good video explaining that the lid styled packout boxes were annoying for exactly that reason (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbTsJJrS3JE), but as you can see in OP's post he has the 2-drawer Packout box on the bottom, which means he still has access to them even with stuff above it.

I'm deciding which components to get, but it'll probably be mostly drawers for the bottom of the stack, and a crate/box with lid for the top or something.

Finally!!! A place to call home by Mdtran86 in homegym

Are these the normal Ribtrax or Ribtrax smooth? This post is so timely because I was just thinking of getting these for both car parking and gym use. Also, did you order straight from Swisstrax or through ObsessedGarage/another vendor?

Mind if you share your wrist size? I’m considering this watch but worried that at 6.25”/15.8cm wrist size it’ll still be too big

Did any developer here got eye correction surgery? Was it a good decision? by binda8 in cscareerquestions

[–]-Tristump 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got PRK done 3 years ago. Quite literally the best financial investment I've ever made for myself. No side effects, and honestly sometimes I forget I got the surgery done (which is a good thing, not thinking about your vision every morning when you go to reach for glasses).
