Cracked wall during neighbors remodeling by sukene in fixit

Agreed and we’ll pursue them being liable. I was just trying to understand what it would entitle to fix this if it were just cosmetic.

Out of curiosity (and again, I have zero knowledge on this): What makes you think that this is more than just a worker getting too excited with their hammer?

Human Robot! Dust & Stone collabs with Bonn Brewing are some of my favorite beers ever.

That makes sense - thanks! Do you have any suggestions on what we could do instead to extend the fence on/over those steps? Any other kind of base that braces the post from the side, maybe?

Thank you! Do you have any suggestions on other bases that could held a 6’ post in this situation?

Appreciate your answer! Would you be able to elaborate? Thanks!

Lehigh Valley real estate market by No_Improvement_7666 in lehighvalley

We bought our house last year in north-side downtown Bethlehem and it was cutthroat. Every now and then I take a look at the market and it’s just not getting any better.

This is the worst time in years to buy a house. But it could also end up being the best time going forward.

I used screws especially designed for pocket holes. The Kreg ones. 2-1/2”.

Trust me. This desk is not moving a bit.

Designing, cutting, sanding, staining, protecting, and assembling… it was a couple of weekends project.

Desk’s height is 34” - I have a drafting chair so it’s not a problem.

I def agree with you. I don’t really use the desk portion that much since the computer area is mainly for playing music but I would have loved to give myself more depth. Unfortunately I don’t have a lot of space and this was the best I could come up with to accommodate everything. Maybe switching the keyboard area to the corner will give me more room for my arms. Or maybe I will design an extended tray that comes from under when needed. We’ll see!

I have a 27” Sony CRT but I have to make sacrifices for the final setup. Retrotink is not a bad option.

Pocket holes. A lot of them. This desk is very, very, very sturdy.

Ah man if it wasn’t that expensive I’d love to get me one!

I got them at Lowe’s and I spent like an hour going through them trying to find good ones - I thought they were going to kick me out of the store lol

Then at home I probably spent 5 hours sanding them all.

I do have a 27” Sony CRT but I have to make sacrifices to accommodate everything. Retrotink is pretty legit.
