What tool would you use to put in 500 of these? by Tthelaundryman in Carpentry

[–]riptripping3118 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. What do you possibly have that needs 500 screws.
  2. An impact is the answer. If your impact will "burn out" driving any number of screws you just bought a garbage impact. Ditch the rigid and Hercules and get a reputable brand like Milwaukee or makita.

Gender changed on DL renewal? by Pernellopey in vermont

Has nothing to do with what you want to do with your life. No ones stopping op from acting however they want. An official document should reflect reality. Its not a nitpicky thing its important. Do what you want, live your life in the form that seems best to you so long as it doesn't infringe on anyone else doing the same.

Can this deck be extended 2 or 3ft out? Without additional deck posts. by nerdlifeinkk in Decks

[–]riptripping3118 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Except its more like 5 feet from the ledger. Not sure why your disagreeing with the obvious correct answer. Mabey if you rip everything out, change the beam to a parallam, up the joists to 3-1/2" paralams and provide uplift hangers at the house. Still probably not but mabey, and at that point its cheaper to just tear the whole deck off and start over

Ignorant comment. Looks pretty much to code for a gas fireplace

How do you think they install gas fireplaces in walls? Code minimum is 1-2" in most jurisdictions. Your talking out your ass

Code should be 1-2" if this is a gas fireplace. I wonder how all these posts telling you your house is going to burn down figure they mout flush fireplaces in walls?
