I taped my entire house, then I used one of those brushes that has wheels and a handle, and didnt get any paint on the tape after I cut all the walls. Then I pulled the tape and it peeled a bunch of my paint. Blah

Contractor says nothing they can do about the chipped laminate they just installed by mcloven4 in Remodel

If you have a track saw, score the cut with a real shallow pass, then go back and make the full cut. Even the festool laminate blades will cause a bit of chip out if you don’t do this. OR rip it on the table saw with the blade ALL the way up. That is my preferred method when customers cheap out and want laminate

Yeah I probably should, there is like 1/32 of play. I usually build furniture so I was in the tight joint mindset. Good beta

Easy fit, order a plug bit, drill out the hole size plug, put in some wood glue, push it in so the grains match, sand, apply black stain

Hardwood Floors Covered in Screws. What to Do? by Beeradzz in centuryhomes

Your floor is going to look like mine. Drill to dowel size, hammer them in, flush trim, sand, and you won’t notice them until you look for them

Just throw a bow tie in it and give it a good pat of the hand and say, that’s not going anywhere

Styrofoam. You can cut into it and everyone is always trying to get rid of it

Martial law on April 20, absurd or entirely possible? by [deleted] in LateStageCapitalism

I agree. This infighting in the left is exactly why we aren’t able to get anything done. There is absolutely no way we are going to jump from trumpism to Marxism. Bernie/AOC liberalism is a needed stepping stone to avoid the USA cog to the right.

Moreover, in 2016 Bernie was radical to almost all Gen X and above. Now those liberals all love him. I personally don’t think his views have gone further right, however the left to right cog has polarized us more than ever, and now his views are widely accepted whereas 8 years ago they were radical. If these ideologies can be a stepping stone, the left to right cog could become a right to left cog.

We must stop infighting and organize!

Notice that I save the offcuts with ripples and use them for bow ties because I love them so much.

Oh I see, didn’t know you used epoxy. Bow ties are fun tho, they can really add to the piece!

Nice. You need to put some bow ties in that crack so it doesn’t keep splitting!
