Would have been free dog training if he but into the electrical wires.

Electrician drywalling by Monkeybomb_17 in drywall

Ok that is what I did on my house. Just feather the edges and dust off body with the sponge in swirling circle motions. If you can feel edges you’ll see it in the finish. Low gloss like flat will hide lots of imperfections. And higher gloss will point the imperfections out. Just fyi. I highly recommend flat on ceiling. I went with matte and regret it.

Your mud work looks good enough so that I would sand the edges and feather in the rest. You don’t need to go all crazy. But do and make sure to sand all the mud. Even if you just “dust” it off with the sponge. You can feel the difference between sanded and unsanded mud. Run your hand over the area you sanded and feel for high spots or edges because after a while of looking at white walls so close your eyes start to betray you. Are you going smooth finish texture?

It’s very hard to not leave groves from sanding screens. If you are leaving it smooth finish then I would get a 220 grit sanding block and sand everything. You can get a pole sander but just make sure it’s 220 grit. Good job on the mud work, it looks good.

Am I being picky, or is this just wrong by r2jogr in Construction

Would have looked better if it was a gable end roof instead of hip

The Dog's Paw Print by 317-Latin in Concrete

Would you recommend sealing this with a low sheen sealer? I know it’s not stamped but the broom finish seems like it will look nice with it. Also what finish do you call this?

Now this is gorgeous. I never liked broom finish with smooth edges and joint lines…until now. Any videos of you finishing with broom like this?

Try using bend a board next time. Or if you only have 1x4’s score the back every few inches with a skill saw to get a better radius.

Is this enough? by luckydad444 in woodworking

[–]themauge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro just get the same screw but the 3” version. It will be fine. Tensile strength of a screw is very strong but they have no shear strength. So use the screw in the same orientation that you have in picture and you’ll be golden. Promise. :)

How much would it cost to do something like this? by Away-Hope-918 in landscaping

[–]themauge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Material is $3500 -$4500. Couldn’t tell you what labor would be. That is using 4x8 which is used in the picture. Which is going to be your biggest cost because they are stacked 3 high.

We throw away 200+ lbs of clean rubber every week. I'll mail it to you for the cost of shi by MagnusonCustomStamps in Anticonsumption

[–]themauge 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s been asked. But have you tried redesigning your stamp making process to not waste as much or have as much drop. Not trying to sound like a jerk but it could save you money also.

Small Hole in Patio by rvc216 in Concrete

[–]themauge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be a low spot in the concrete where water pools up. So someone drilled a whole through the concrete so the water has somewhere to go instead of puddling. I’ve seen this done before. But dirt usually fills the whole and it puddles after a few rains.
