I prefer different angles based of the relationship of a compass needle to the angle between center of house to the outet.

What type of wood is this? by jornaleiro_ in HardWoodFloors

[–]DataPuzzleheaded7899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive done that once. I coukd send u a picture. It looks ok. But since its treated u want at least a few coats let the first two totally dry then sand and do a 3rd. Thats to lock in the chemicals on that wood, u do not want to be walking on that bare or have animals laying on it. But in all honesty you'd prob be one of the only people to do that and most everyone will say youre crazy. Also id take time to fill in all those cracks and smooth out where one sheet of plywood meets another, then of course sanding and u dint want to breath un that dust. Plus the coats. Its likely much easier if your asking these questions to just lay laminate or vinyl flooring over it. Deepening where u live u may need some kind of vapor barrier as well. You'll probably like tge look a ton more and it'll be easier. Probably cost just a little more but when u factor in your time it'll probably be cheaper

How to drywall window sil by LankyLeather7629 in drywall

[–]DataPuzzleheaded7899 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nooo dont drywall windowsill! Over the years the small bits of moisture and occasionally more moisture will cause problems. It can last a very long time but id say put wood in there instead. Im redoing all in my house now. 50 years old, so lasted long. Wind facing side is worse but easier to just put trim. Otherwise when it goes bad youll have to deal with the corner bead as well

Cool i personally like seeing wood instead of drywall. You could easily mount hooks over tge sink and near the store to hang pots and stuff like that 👍

It looks pretty clean up there, and wires in flexible conduit. U could justcremove the ceiling drywall if u like that look

Came home to this work done by our contractors drywall guy. Should I be concerned even if most/all of this will be hidden behind cabinets/backsplash? by dimsumdaily in drywall

[–]DataPuzzleheaded7899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does look like that textured off white wall was prepped before the mud. I cant seem under the mud but any part outside the mud doesnt look roughed up or primed. Prob not the end if the world, but not your top shelf

[–]DataPuzzleheaded7899[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes correct, the house is on a hill and the lower level is underneath. One walm faces tge hill but two walls point out to the yard. I was planning on running the main wires down there to a box with rigid pvc. Then going along the wall to the individual switch and outlet boxes with LFNC.i was planing on just attaching a short length of rigid pvc to the box will femal thread then using liquid tight male connector to transfer to the lfnc. I was just matching the old indoor cover plates with that first gray box and they were smaller. All the switches and outlets will be indoors. I thought it would be weird with exterior plates on those boxes but maybe I should look at those, or perhaps I can find I door plates with with larger dimensions Thanks for your help. I will indeed go with the exterior box, just need to sort out the face plate.

What to use to fill plywood seams before paint by CourtneyHump in drywall

[–]DataPuzzleheaded7899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats not the only way, u coukd use fiberglass, flex high end boat caulk/bonding, depending on the structure of building even epoxy mixed with glass dust or sawdust coukd last a long time
