rip husky 2548, long live kubota bx25
Comments (3)Noworries, great story. Yeah, I have Kubota too. But what i have and seems you don't have is a book that keeps track of oil changes. I have all the machines in The book: tiller, chainsaws, trimmers, tractors, edgers, etc. Just write it down NoWorries, and your worries will be gone....See Morewho is ripping up my moss and how do I stop it??
Comments (4)I know the frustration. In my yard, this kind of digging is caused by skunks primarily. At other times of the year, turkeys can cause similar disturbances. I find that squirrels only mess with my plants or containers when they're stashing seeds or nuts for the winter. Raccoons, however, are monsters! They dig deep into containers, and they tear whole plants out of containers. They also knock things over, even if they're not looking for food. Anyhow, my money's on the skunk. Our skunks have been very active for the past month. Josh...See MoreHow long should deck mud dry before tiling?
Comments (6)Terriks, I guess I was not clear when I said membrane - I meant the pastic/vinyl(??) thing that goes down on the deckmud pre slope. Not a vapor barrier as in kerdi. Mongo and Bill, the upstairs flooring is pretty sturdy as far as I can tell (I am no expert, as you can tell :) no creaking when walked on, it is a 10 year old house. I believe what I saw when the carpet was ripped off, was plywood. I could be wrong, again. The wood was about 1 1/2 to 2" thick. I made him pull out a small portion to check for water damage, if any, which we did not find. The cement board was only screwed in, not thinsetted. So I know better, they should both be done? How about on the walls? Just screwed in to the wall studs? We are starting on the Master bath tomorrow, and want to incorporate all the changes that I have now realized are required, except for the kerdi, which I dont have access to readily. We are going to use Redgard (topical) on the walls. One more questions- as for water proofing the shower floor when builing a deck mud pan, do we use redgard on the cured floor before tiling (pebbles in my case)? My handyman has never used epoxy grout and I am not willing to experiemnt, as clean up can be a pain and if there are any problems, I am told that it can be pretty hard to get the stuff out once hardened. So I am going the tradtional route - sanded grout,(no admix) and then seal with a penetrating solvent based sealer. Is there anything that I need to do differently for a better result? Thank you all so very much, mrao77...See Morereturns-how long to wait before it's yours to keep.
Comments (3)Call the company one more time and give them a time limit to have it picked up. Tell them directly if it is not picked up you will consider it yours. Either they will pick up or may tell you to keep it. A third option if you do not want a spare table is for you to suggest you donate it. I do not believe there is a legal time table in most states for returns. Becertain to write down names of whoever you talk to as you don't want to be billed for the extra table....See Morea1an
