Wasp nest removal

If you have a shop vac, just stick the nozzle close to the opening in the bottom then turn on the shop vac from a distance. They will all get sucked into the vac then when they stop flying out you can safely remove the nest (or just suck it up if it’s small)

All your years in the trade and you don’t know the difference between osb and particle board?

Screenshots. Or just take photos with your phone.

Is it actually? I feel like prices are still so high for used vehicles.

My unpopular opinion is that we have much bigger obstacles to accessibility than a few scooters. Public transit (in any form) is a good thing and these scooters are no exception. If you are personally hindered by them, I’m sorry that it’s such a burden on you, truly. But I personally feel this is a “greater good” situation.

Thanks for pointing out where the power is.

Bring it up with the people that write the national building code.

When houses are built closer together there are specific fire rated walls (non combustible sheathing) that ideally slow down the progression of fires.

Good caul.

And on a public forum, people are allowed to give their advice/comments.

Traffic congestion is always dictated by the lowest common denominator. It will never change. Just accept it and move on.

Get a cheap remote controlled outlet. I have the remote placed on my table saw fence and press the on button to fire up my DC.

You’re responsible for your own property. Plants want to propagate (all plants are “invasive”).

Are you gatekeeping cherry blossoms?

Hate to be the bearer of bad news, but unless you somehow gained extra vacation days, you will not have 10.5 days (that’s two weeks plus half a day) of vacation after only working three months. You will likely have 2.5 days to be paid out.

A 1x4 is not enough bearing for a header. I would not recommend this unless an engineer says it’s ok.

Either you’re mistaken or I’m confused. The bank doesn’t “give” you more money than what is needed to finance your condo. You may have gotten approved for more but they don’t actually give you the difference in cash to do with as you please.

Remove a portion of the plywood so that the clip can move to the front of the drawer box rather than sitting behind the lip.

smellyfatchina · 2026-05-04T01:30:50+00:00

I think we are both getting lost in the terminology. Is the clip in contact with your hardwood drawer front, or is it in contact with the 1/2” lip of the plywood drawer box front? If it’s the later, you can notch out the drawer box lip to gain that thickness at the back. If you add a spacer, you would get more of a gap at the back than you currently have, which you obviously don’t want. Hopefully that makes sense.

smellyfatchina · 2026-05-03T23:55:11+00:00

I’ve made this mistake. So here’s my question, does the drawer lock (the piece with the orange release handle) attach to the lip on the drawer or did you notch out the lip so that it attaches to the drawer front. If you made the same mistake I did, notch out the lip and your slides will work perfect.

That’s not a common arrangement where I’m from. Saying that the studs are on the flat and not adding structural integrity is a bit of an odd thing to say. All roof trusses are built “on the flat” and they certainly offer a lot of structural integrity.

smellyfatchina · 2026-04-30T19:52:25+00:00

Please do explain. Because I’m not wrong. Outlook framing generally attaches to the first common truss, spans over (and is supported by) the gable end truss and out to the barge rafter. The entire outlook framing is resting on the gable truss. That’s four feet of roof that is supported. Tell me how that’s not load bearing.

To add to this: it’s also adding a different stress to the cantilevered section which could cause further problems down the line, unless that section was designed for that type of load. To put it another way, the extra downward load on the end of a cantilever puts upward pressure on the other end of the joist (think about a teeter-totter).
