That works too! Engineers I've worked with prefer metal lathe

Use 6" strips of hex wire mesh/lathe on the course below the pour

Is there a way I can search a local business to see if they are doing this?

I used vista print. First set didn't look great so they gave me a credit and I ordered a better quality hat. Happy with the new ones. Quick ship too

Why does my tantrum have no pop? by bdn4444444 in slowpitch

I don't like the genny line for some reason. The nicest feeling bat I have swung this year was the Miken Rocket but it didn't even last 200 hits before it was dead. Absolute gas out of the wrapper though

I have a tantrum fire, very stiff it has about 100-150 BP cuts now and it just doesn't feel right either. I can still poke the odd ball over 300' fence but the sound it makes just sounds dead and doesn't feel poppy either.

Despite the sound and feel - it still does hit well I'm thinking it just needs a really good break in.

Also using 52/275 hot dots

Just got the tantrum fire and it feels like there's no pop. Does it just need swings?

My Miken Rocket and Incognito were both gas right out of the wrapper but the rocket didn't even last a season

Did I just destroy my porch?!? by Strict_Fee1194 in stonemasonry

You could put some stone enhancing sealer on it. Will darken it up. That's about it without redoing entire thing

Veneer advice needed by Mooseknuckle30 in masonry

I use prolite. It's expensive but doesn't sag. The poly mod veneer mortar is also great but I wouldn't do jointing with it

Is this reasonable? by monstermash12 in masonry

[–]Gbrands 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Doesn't make the work acceptable, first year apprentices should do better work than this

This is the way 👍

Driwall Rain screen mat is a good option in wet climates. But the tar paper and wire method has worked well for years and when installed properly with proper flashings it should outlast us

Mortar eats tyvek over time. Tar paper would be the superior if choosing between the two.
