Re: A Case for Resilient Design

Oh Oh, it was cold this morning and now it is getting warmer. I heard it is going to get cold again tonight. I better get some food down to my bunker.

Did you ever hear of the ice age? It must have been from all the dino's breathing. The dust bowl of the 30's?
That must have been from all the buffalo dung.

Get real, grow up and stop being used by the Gore's of the world. They are making a fortune off of people like you.

Re: One Carpenter's Life as Told by Small Houses and Spaces

I agree with renosteinke, you want a small house, go for it. I want a big house, leave me alone. As long as I build it on my land (and comply with zoning) is is none of your business.

Re: Stairmathter: Use SketchUp to Master the Math for Stairbuilding

Too much needless moving of the cursor. I was getting dizzy.

Re: The Pre-cut House

Larry, I love it. I have a picture of a farm I used to summer on, the barn is collapsed and the house is empty and there is a huge old style satellite dish in the yard.
I loved the story. I know of a Sears prefab in Boston. It is said to be the first, I don't know.

Re: The Pre-cut House

Did the satellite dish come with the kit? :)

Re: Make a Simple Clamp for Perfect Miters

To paint small screw heads, just push them into a piece of cardboard and spray.

Why don't we bring back the "swing-saw" too?

Re: Pipe Clamp Hold Down for the Job Site

I don't have a pipe threader. Why not just drill a hole the size of the pipe and remove the sliding end of the pipe clamp, thread the pipe through the hole, and replace the sliding end?
