I'm finally starting to get back in the groove from my ten-day vacation / business trip out to California. You may have been one who asked me to post a few photos of what I saw with my youngest daughter Kelly. Here's one taken at Barker Dam at Joshua Tree National Park. Here's one I […]

I’m confident that my drain tile was not put in correctly at my last house. What are the best practices when installing drain tile around a foundation? What materials […]

Several weeks ago, I had to tear into a basement slab at my own home as part of a bathroom remodel project. At the bottom of the slab were PEX pipes that were providing heat for the basement. It was important to use a chipping hammer tool that provided extreme control and minimal fatigue so […]
A few years back, I tested the Makita job site radio. It was nice and delivered great sound, but I recently was able to use the Bosch PB360C radio and it's a superb product. I feel this Bosch radio is far superior to the Makita radio. One of the outstanding features of this Bosch radio […]
