I am a 74 year old do everything kind of guy (rough carpentry, cabinetry, wiring, plumbing, heating, etc.). Having built four homes and helped my five children remodel another four I have moved on to helping at Habitat build sites. In addition, my wife keeps me working on projects she comes up with.

Re: Titanium hammers up for grabs. Want one?

Weight of a hammer is indeed crucil as one ages. I find that working on "habitat homes" has become more difficult with advancing age. We still use a lot of elbow grease in our "builds". A lighter weight hammer would be a definite plus.

Re: Use a Suntube to Brighten a Windowless Bathroom

We have two 10 incher installed in a windowless hallway. They work so well that we find ourselves reaching for the light switch when the lights are off. I also have a 14 inch unit in our kitchen. They work well without the enlarged opening into the rooms.
