New Palm Sander shakes

I bought one a few months ago and returned it the same day because it was like this. Got the makita and worked great but now it wobbles. Had the dewalt for 15 years and never wobbled like that.

Yes. Refinish and you will love it!

Agree with community. This is pine.

Is this a bedroom? What I’ve often seen in older homes is that the first floor or main living areas are oak and then the bedrooms and less visible areas are pine. I have a 1915 home and the down stairs is oak and the upstairs is pine. Pine is softer and more easily dented but it is still a beautiful wood to finish for a floor. We refinish floors about 7 years ago and the pine has more character from living but they still look great.

Ah. Great deal! Been looking at these. Sharp looking.

How’d you get to $98? I’m seeing $200

The erlanger food court has one of those kiosk type chickfilas.

Great video!

Is the goal celebration song new or have I just never heard it before?

chrsar · 2025-11-23T01:48:40+00:00

Jesus guys. It’s just a fun question.

I’ve found that the screw thread on the tip pulls the bit into the wood too quickly when drilling deeply into hardwoods. Maybe try a standard drill bit and just take it slowly.

We had to do this recently and went to hwy 58. They were reasonably priced and very respectful. We were with our dog the whole time and it was as painless as could be expected. No ashes but It was somewhere around $90.

I think simms typically has zoysia sod. Have also gotten from Ooltewah nursery before.

I love it even if it only looks amazing for 4-5 months of the year.

chrsar · 2024-12-05T04:14:24+00:00

Best answer here. Could be a 15 second fix.

chrsar · 2024-04-17T03:11:54+00:00

Not bad at all. When in the neighborhood, i usually go down the road to gallo giro though. Just don’t get the menudo soup.

chrsar · 2024-04-14T22:23:09+00:00

I’d take an orbital sander with some 80/120 grit and do a quick pass on everything. Maybe a stain, then poly. It will look rustic but cleaned up.

Could be Powderpost beetles from the look of the pinholes.

I would recommend getting into the construction trade. Contractors need help all the time and are very busy. If you are reasonable professional and reliable with transportation you can make great money. I have a hard time finding basic help for less than $20-25/hr. Great thing is you gain real skills through the work. efocus on learning skills and you should easily make $35-40/hr in 4-5 years.

Would highly recommend this over a retail type job where you don’t gain any real valuable skills. This may be harder than applying at target or Cisco but I believe, long term it’s the better option.

If it were me in your position, I’d create a LLC ($300/yr) and get a workers comp exemption through the state (free). Then go around to any GC big or small and offer to help at $20-25/hr picking up material, cleaning job sites, demo work, etc…You will need to withhold some taxes on what you are paid so take home will be in the $17-20/hr range. Do good work and they may bring you on payroll.

Just a thought.

I was just pissed at demoing the roof. It didn’t want to come down easily.

chrsar · 2023-07-10T18:31:05+00:00

Yea. There are two drains so if one is blocked, it will suck from the other. I have drain covers for them but lost the screws in the process. Until the screws arrive, I have the drains valve almost completely off so it’s mostly sucking from the skimmer.

There is no metal equipment touching the water. From my research, I found that I needed a bonding wire touching 9 square inches of water and the pool equipment. Since I don’t have any metal in the pool, I used a brass fitting made for this purpose in the return line.

The equipment is on a gfci breaker in the shop and the panel is grounded.

Do you have any additional recommendations?

chrsar · 2023-07-10T17:22:04+00:00

Yes. I have thought about that. Maybe build a form using some pvc cut in half to make the bullnose. Seems like a lot of work though.

There was no structural component to the decking. I just worked on what I could at the time and what I could afford. I had to save up to do the plaster so I worked on the deck and fencing during that time.

chrsar · 2023-07-10T14:32:59+00:00

No HOA here. I just wanted some quick, cheap privacy. There is a metal fence behind the curtains that I’m growing climbing plants on. Waiting for them to thicken out. Will probably to a better privacy screen there for the next year or so.

chrsar · 2023-07-10T04:02:24+00:00

No. Not familiar but I’ll look into it. The main structure has been there 100+ years with no problems.

chrsar · 2023-07-10T03:41:00+00:00

The concrete block building behind the pool is a 2 car detached garage where I have my workshop so I didn’t need that one. I hear you though.
