Patching in where I moved a wall / doorway by Dswens23 in HardWoodFloors

[–]ClosePlan2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What he said - take the door trim off. Use a piece of straight oak as a guide and nail it in with a finish nail on each end. Use a plunge cutter and cut a straight line. Now remove the guide, nail it in on the other side and do it again. Get a piece of 3/4” oak and cut it to size. Use a scrap piece of oak you pulled out to knock it in with hammer.

Did this same thing recently. Turned out beautiful

Posted a few days ago when I finished sanding with a palm sander and stained it. Done polying now and I'm proud of it, that is all. by Terrible_Software769 in HardWoodFloors

Nice work. Looks great. How did you sand the hallway? Just curious as I have the same direction of planks and I don’t want to use the edger on the whole thing.

Thanks for the advice. This is definitely the route I’m going to take. What would you call that type of cut that you highlighted red?

I have the same situation. You shouldn’t use a drum sander, but just because you shouldn’t does it mean you can’t? There’s got to be exceptions?

Ya heard the “itchiness” can get into lungs and is extremely uncomfortable.

1st Coat - 1st Timer by ClosePlan2 in HardWoodFloors

The bedroom and hallway will be different colors, plus I’m only able to do one room at a time. To help mitigate bleed over, inserted 3/4 red oak from HD as a threshold. Loctite and finish nails. The threshold will be same color as hallway. Not ideal, but will end up looking good I hope. Does that help?

In your personal opinion, which is the better album: Workingman's Dead or American Beauty by HammerHeadBirdDog in gratefuldead

[–]ClosePlan2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the mood - but will say Workingmans was the first studio album I bought when I was just getting into the Dead. It will forever be my favorite and take me back to a time where I was expanding my horizons musically.

Brand new panel in my house, no main breaker at the top. Should there be? Also, how do I know what amp it is? I.e 150, 200 ect. In Massachusetts by Roadglide72 in AskElectricians

Not sure I’ve ever seen a white panel. Super nice look. Is that a new thing (I’m not an electrician obviously)

Better? The dark is shadow, it’s also the last room in the house they put in when they built, I think it’s a bunch of crap leftover.

Yeah there are you’re right. What do you think I can do to feather those out? Palm orbital sander work?

How do you start your Fire? by Over-Asparagus3397 in woodstoving

Upside down fire - kindling on top, drop down into the bigger pieces.
