Bark gnawed all the way around my pines!

Comments (3)$80 a window is not too far out of line---as long as the job is primer ready when finished. The type of bead should depend on the use of the areas---plastic bead is not as dent resistant, will be damaged by hard hits/dent/chip and usually keep the shape. Metal bead will deform if hit and stay deformed. Casual contact makes metal bead the better choice....See Morewhat's best way to cut sheet rock out around window
Comments (2)I have a special vibrating cutting tool I use for this. I know you're not going to go out and spend a couple hundred bucks to cut rock back. The only other way that has always worked the best is a good old sharp bladed utility knife. Just measure the old frames thickness and subtract that thickness from the new one. That's the distance you'll need to remove. I always measure from the inside wall to the edge of the rock and subtract the distance evenly all the way around. You just make a line all the way around the wall where you need to cut. The you cut down the line with your knife. You'll have to make numerous passes down the lines until you've cut through the rock. Just be patient and careful. It won't take you that long to get it cut out. The area from the edge of the interior wall where the rock goes in and butts the window is called a "Sheetrock Return". Here in MN we don't see that very often when replacing windows. Most of our windows have the wall rock stopping at the windows Rough Opening edge. We then have what we call a "Jamb Extension" applied to the window to flush the window to the wall. Then we apply interior casing around the window. If we are using a vinyl window that doesn't come with jambs to accommodate the wall thickness, we make a "Jamb Box". The jam box is the four pieces of jamb extenders nailed together with the interior casing already applied. Ounce the window is installed and insulated the jamb box slides into the opening and nailed in place through the casing. Very fast and clean! Good Luck!!!...See Moreany way to get a ding from SS fridge door?Or cute way to hide it
Comments (7)Just thinking, depending on the dent, could one of the auto dent-remover guys fix it? It might be worth taking a photo of it and talking to someone. As for being magnetic, there are several types of SS and they don't all have the same properties. 300 series SS are not magnetic, but resist moisture and exposure to chemicals (acids, etc) better than some of the others, so they tend to be used in kitchen appliances and equipment. You've probably seen SS cookware advertised as "18/10" or something similar. This is 300 series stainless and the numbers denote the chromium and nickel content of the steel. Some of the higher strength stainless steels ARE magnetic, but don't hold up quite as well to some of the sources of corrosion that are common in kitchens. They are used more for equipment, aerospace, and military applications where it is critical for the material to withstand certain loads or forces. The high strength of these steels is not necessary for appliance exteriors, so the extra cost and more difficult manufacturing processes needed to use them are probably not cost effective. I did a quick check on my stainless appliances which are from different manufacturers. The range, range hood, and refrigerator are not magnetic. The front of the dishwasher is, but the handle and inside are not. Just thought you might want to cheer DH up! Let us know if you go for the fridge or not....See Moregraywings123
