Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
Forget the primal scream, just ROAR!!!
"Green Horn for the forum" is just the introductory title.
I see I have reached another building enthusiast.
Let me see if I can remember all the shots fired across the bow...
- Tyvek in most exterior wall system applications.
- Rosin paper for floors.
- Vinyl for decks and facia.
- Vented
- Remind me about advantec, coated plywood?
- Tools are posted in forum tonight.
- Please educate me about piffen screws.

Discussion Man Discussion,
True, to each his own, no response or comment? That is a lot of information to throw out into a forum as a newbie to the site... Just thought you might have some opinions on any if not all...
okay...
the Jap companies are for themselves and the consumer gets the short end of the stick...
the bean counters at DW have made sure their customer support is dismal and their tools are rapidily becoming junk...
Bosch, Milwaukee, Metabo and Hilti at least give ya the benifit of the doubt and stand behind their tools...
these guys attempt to take care of their customer base...
all of the tool mfgrs, everyone of them, have tools in their line up that are outstanding and they also have their junkers...
as far as methods practices and materials.. each have their function and place...
here again it's each to their own.... the defining gray line is difficult to see at times...Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming<!----><!----><!---->

"why beat dead horses...?"'Cause it makes them more tender? For the glue? It gets rid of the dust? Catharsis?
