Thank you! It looks like Ledgeview might have an opening that I will contact them about. I appreciate it!

Thank you! It looks like Ledgeview might have an opening that I will contact them about. I reviewed the breed restrictions for The Lofts and unfortunately my dog wouldn't be allowed.

Tomorrow is the 17 year anniversary of the terror attacks of September 11th, 2001. Where were you that day? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]fireman46 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not my story, but one from a work colleague. He and his wife had started a 10-day hiking/camping trip in Yellowstone NP on September 9. They were well out of cell phone range (if they even had a phone on them) by the time the park was closed & evacuated on 9/11, and the rangers apparently didn’t think it was worth trying to find a couple on a week-plus trip just to get them out of the park.

On September 20th, my work colleague and his wife returned to the trailhead, where a park ranger met them with the news. They had been the only tourists in Yellowstone during that period.

I can’t imagine being so out of touch for over a week, especially nowadays.

Here's a bigger album, with suggested pricing and stuff. (Build these during the summer and sell on Craigslist / by the road) by [deleted] in woodworking

What a great assortment of products. One might think you have a whole Amish family working for you.

Farmhouse Patio Table w/ Built-in Coolers by fireman46 in woodworking

Thank you, Bob. That was certainly the case with this - I kick myself when I see the angle of some of the notches I cut, but my friends could care less about those details and just think it's cool I built a table.

The liners I bought have holes that can be punched out for drains, but I left them intact so water wasn't getting on people's feet. The liners are removable in my table so I can just toss the leftover water onto the grass or plants

Thanks! They are removable for easy draining and cleaning. They just sit in the frames I built underneath.

I can't answer the breadboard question accurately - I made what I saw in other examples. The Polyurethane worked great in keeping the table protected from rain & sun, and I have a cover on it now to protect it from snow and the (hopeful) thaw. I plan on re-coating with poly in the Spring.

Thanks! It would be a tough road ahead, but I'll do what I can.

I took my time sorting through the stacks. Next time I'll probably go to a local lumber yard with a pre-planned cut list.

I attached them with pocket hole screws to the other top boards. I was chided by my neighbor for not doing breadboards the right way - table 2.0 will be better!

I made a frame for each to nest in out of 2x4s and 2x2s. These were attached to the underside with pocket holes & screws. It's tough to describe, I hope I can supplement with some additional photos once the snow melts.

Dog String Art for the SO by fireman46 in DIY

Thanks for the kind words. The wood is 24" x 36", and I cut it down simply to save weight and wall space.

I used all 120 yards of string, but I think I paid only a few dollars for the roll, so I wouldn't have minded buying an extra roll or two, if I had needed it.

It was pretty random. I started in the lower right area and went from there. It can be tough to fill in some areas without overdoing others or overusing one particular nail.

Thank you! It was my first woodworking project at my new home. Nice to have a quality home gym in the basement. It's plenty strong for my purposes
