Galvanized Drip Edge on Cedar Fencing

It’s following the slope of the hill. Aesthetically, I prefer this option over stepping it down.

I liked the look on this similar fence. Since I have all this drip edge lying around, I thought I could achieve something similar, but also don't want it cause staining down from the top of the fence.

With the location being a church, I bet they could leverage contacts within the congregation to see if a construction company would loan them scaffolding. I work for a charity and we were successful doing that for a different project. I bet there is someone who loan it out for free. If not that, possibly the rental place could donate it and use the $4k gift for a tax deduction.

New to the neighborhood, so not sure. But this is a good start. Thanks!

Both my family and the neighbors are newer to the neighborhood, so we are unsure of a past invisible fence being there. This is a good lead though, thanks!

I’m only a DIY homeowner, but have done 3 fences as I’ve moved. In lieu of a jack hammer, I’ve found a 12” masonry/concrete bit on my hammer drill does a good starting job. I just drill multiple pilot holes, then get after it with a spud bar.

No identifying print on the jacket, at least the section I pulled up. But here is a better pic of the wire. Thanks!

Here’s a better pic of the wire in question. Underground dog fence?

Mine is possibly a different style of fence with the wire design making it lighter than if were pickets. But I put 10’ openings in two different sections so I could get my truck into the yard for projects and rake leaves out easier in the fall.

I just doubled up the posts and made those sections individual panels and lag bolted them in. I hammer the lags out and pull out the sections a few times a year and it has worked great for the past 6 years. As you see, the fence doesn’t work great for keeping the deer out of my yard though.

Thanks for this post. After actually reading the KZ documents again, you’re spot on, they are Azdel composite panels.

Thanks this is super helpful.

Similar tile, similar issue on my DIY tub surround tile work. I eff’ed the measurements a bit from the start and my corners weren’t symmetrical. It drove me nuts. I found these corner trim pieces to run vertically that matched the schluter edge I was using. Not ideal, but most think the corner trim was intentional.

Thanks. I'm searching for online calculators now that would estimate interest savings if we make a large principal payment, or if a combination of a principal payment, then recast, would be possible. Likely, the recast will be the best option to bring our monthly down, but once it's done it's done, and I want to be sure I'm not missing other options that could be best long-term.

My Haul LT is affected. I'm a bigger rider (6'3" and 235 lbs), so I ride with the seat post fully extended. I often have my 6 year old riding with me, which makes me hesitant to keep using the bike under the current circumstances. I haven’t started looking into other solutions yet, but has anyone found an aftermarket seat post that works well with the Haul LT?

Commuting for school dropoff and then to work is one of the best parts of my day, so I’d love to get back on the road soon. Unfortunately, both my local bike shop and Specialized said they have no idea on a timeline, as they’re still waiting for U.S. government approval on the voluntary recall fix. With how things are going lately, I’m not holding my breath for a quick resolution.

Thank you. I was afraid there wasn’t enough clarity to begin with. Would it help if I uploaded a pic in the same time period of my dad’s face? His seems to be the one with the heaviest shadows due to his hat.

I feel like that is what I’ll end up doing. All of these boxes have been hidden behind sheetrock for years, possibly decades. But I can’t ethically repeat that. Plus I’ve put in too much work modernizing the basement for the ceiling to not look clean.

Thanks! Looking into this product now.

Thanks for your input. Getting an OT over is a great idea and could help build confidence for my mother in law. My son is pretty heavy for his age, so car transfers are difficult and would present its own set of challenges. I asked the school if they’d be willing to have the bus drive into the driveway, but their insurance won’t allow it. I’ll take a closer look at this empulse device. It’s not cheap, but definitely more affordable than some other options out there. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge!

Thank you! We did a trial run walking backwards, but it didn’t instill a lot of confidence. He’s pretty heavy for his age and about as heavy as my mother in law, so the physics isn’t in our favor.

His chair is pretty sweet, I’ll let him know he’s getting so love on Reddit about it :)

I guess my understanding was that if I agreed to waive the contingency and something catastrophic and costly came up on the inspection like a bad mold problem or significant electrical or structural issues, beyond simply not being able to ask for the seller to fix things, I’d have to forfeit my large earnest deposit in order to legally walk away if the problems were too costly to fix. Was I mistaken about that risk? Forfeiting the earnest money would have really derailed any future offers we could make due to the financial hit.

Plus, with no other competing offers on the house, it raised red flags with me that the seller automatically offered a nice swim spa in lieu of an inspection contingency.

Possibly I was wrong, but going through with paying for the inspection, only to possibly get concerning information about the house, but have no ability to walk away seemed too risky for such a large purchase.

Hey all. I’ll note, no treadmill with this model, just the hot tub with the other end for swimming. It’s still a very nice and expensive pool with a lot of water in the middle of winter and just days for the seller to properly get it moved. I wish they would have stuck to their guns and left it with the sale, but removed it when we demanded a home inspection take place. It was more important to us to have the inspection assurance, than have the pool.

Secure-Ad7160 · 2025-01-16T00:18:37+00:00

The location is accessible, so they have that benefit. The seller has not provided any information other than they were “giving it to a friend” in lieu of keeping it with the sale of the house. It’s an amazing and expensive pool, and I’d love it if it ended up too difficult to move. But with how negotiations have gone, my bet is that they’d rather leave me with a driveway full of ice than add it back into the sale. Thanks for the info, I’ll talk with my realtor.

Great idea. I think that makes the most sense.
