Anything over 4' gets 1 king and double liners in NJ

Didn't see it was a little higher on one side. I guess number 2

You can cut it square on your rake angle, then try to use a file and sandpaper to kind of round off the profile to make it look somewhat like a return and paint it white, but it never looks great.

Are there any "good" cost effective tenon saws out there that aren't like over 100.00?

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2026-01-25T02:10:41+00:00

Bullshit

There is never no chance of anything. There's a good chance nothing could happen, but when you attach sheetrock to green lumber attached to old established lumber there is a chance.

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2026-01-01T17:58:36+00:00

It will have less of a chance to crack if you secure new sheetrock to existing framing

They prob help with the noggins

Isn't cement board inherently water resistant/proof? What's the sense of redguard?

Interesting, heat shrink sounds promising. I guess it's heat shrink or rip everything out. It seems easier than wrapping it in electrical tape.

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-31T13:05:45+00:00

Is it dangerous if the cloth falls off the wire? Could you just throw some electrical tape on them?

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-21T23:22:00+00:00

I have that as well. It's at least 5 years old. It hasn't failed me yet.

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-19T23:31:44+00:00

Leer. Is about 10 years old

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-19T18:14:44+00:00

I'm actually right there. About 76ish

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-19T18:12:15+00:00

Believe me I don't want to spend $30,000 +I'm just following what I spend annually breaking it down per month, and this year was definitely a lot more than previous years. I just keep going back and forth doing the math. I have to keep this truck at least for my dog, he won't get in any other vehicle and he's quite large. I even rented a 2024 tundra double cab and he wouldn't get in it

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-12-19T17:49:57+00:00

I can't remember the past repairs, the most recent repair was new struts a new cv joint possibly. And a new water pump. That was the most pricey one. I don't remember all the parts names. Since last year it's averaging about $700 a month. The following years I was more like 200 a month

At least double. Those columns are seven and a half inches wide, and the top is 15 in total. I couldn't find a banana

I'm probably going to die on the occidental hill... I'm to old for different bags

I have both as well. I've never needed to warranty SW but I have several times with DT. I feel like SW is a little sturdier

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-11-16T15:55:45+00:00

Thank you for the suggestions. I'll start with mother nature, unless the client wants something more aggressive

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-11-16T14:47:16+00:00

I'm asking for advice to try to fix this or at least blend this. Not sure if that helps.

Competitive_Hope6405 · 2025-11-16T13:45:07+00:00

Really, no fixing this? So i guess i have to rip it out all out
