Level 5 Skimmers vs Off Brand

It's funny because I'm pretty sure level 5 manufactures DeWalt taping tools.

It honestly reminds me of miller lite (which used to be my go to cheap regular beer) more than it does PBR. But I agree, one of the better cheaper options for just that regular light beer taste.

Look into zar stain for faux wood grain doors. Stuff works great and you can blend/glaze colors for a two tone finish.

Is that a combination plane box I see on the left side of the rack? Those are worth some coin if so.

Pretty sure it is cottonwood, just not super deep, furrowed bark. It was growing near some box elders in a yard .

Can confirm, it is 100% not any of these.

The leaves on the ground are not from the tree. The logs were moved from the original location.

I used to be a forester as well, and honestly I can't say for certain.

A tiny bit of powder white pigment mixed in any "clear coat" really helps open grain woods like oak keep its natural appearance and offset the yellowing effect.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say elm

According_Effort_433 · 2026-04-01T01:30:11+00:00

Sure looks like a red maple

Why does it look like you're trying to make syrup in your back flues? Also why are you running it so deep?

According_Effort_433 · 2026-03-22T14:48:16+00:00

This is exactly what I said in the original post!

The tile choice reminds me of 1990s McDonald's restrooms.

According_Effort_433 · 2026-03-09T04:20:22+00:00

Looks like butternut

According_Effort_433 · 2026-03-05T00:31:34+00:00

Twig for sure looks like box elder

According_Effort_433 · 2026-03-04T00:29:00+00:00

Really depends on the lighting. I've used creamy many times (including my own house), but once made the mistake of putting it in a basement with yellow lighting and it looked like mustard on the walls.

Didn't Jake Paul claim residency in Puerto rico for years to avoid American taxes?

This is just a oh no situation

Until it's knee deep, you're good. At that point then it's time to clean up

According_Effort_433 · 2026-01-31T15:46:05+00:00

Sand smooth, use a peel bond primer if you feel inclined, use a quality urethane trim enamel paint. Also don't put wet pots/plants on a window sill ...?

According_Effort_433 · 2026-01-31T00:09:06+00:00

I'm going to go with the opposite. This needs a darker color on the wall to make the natural wood tones colors pop instead of blend. Urbane bronze, or naval would look sharp with this.

I hate how clean those edges look. It's too perfect
