My Dudley was barking at the computer! :)

Went to ColorCharts and they're not limiting use of their site (only active links I hit are the big "Contact..." buttons. So no more quickie comparisons of one manufacturer's color for others whose formulas are a close match. Seems if you're not a registered subscriber of their software or curve color databases, you can't get in unless you email for special instructions. A note at the very bottom indicates the HGTV Home & Interior Painter version of their software can be purchased at most retailers (tho I've not seen it and if it's just another 'virtual paint' program for rooms already have enough of those). Wonder if that means Jane Q will have to buy the software and/or only those 'in the trades' can get access now? Bummer, it was a handy tool. Will have to email to find out when I have a minute.

Fabricators use gantry saws to produce straight cuts in stone. It is not normally a 'site' activity. the saws are very large and very expensive, and must be installed perfectly level and well supported to maintain their alignment. The wet cuts are very clean, minimizing the amount of work required to get a suitable edge finish.

The Florida Gardening forum. We have enough difference in zones, and yet can plant in them year-round, that something new is always happening. And talk about this we do!
