GWSmith Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Ahhhhhh. Frog Tape, LOVE this stuff..... There is a component IN the adhesive that reacts with the water in latex paint and actually swells up to keep any paint from getting under the tape surface, there for, a very sharp tape line can be had.... The whole of Music Hall (my 2 ch. venue) and all the window, door casings and most critically, the lower wall to TILE moldings painting turned out wonderfully... Here it is in picture....... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minermark Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 https://youtu.be/HGFfFegEmLY Just found the video, that's crazy but cool, I would guess the farmers will be shocked. I wasn't expecting it to pop up from under the light, well done, look's good. You could be dangerous with a little time on your hands, reminds me of a old tv show. Your closer than you know, Create/Adapt/Use what you have on hand. Likely comes from mining in the desert w/dad @8 years old. By the time i was 10 as i remember, i was pizzing off scoutmasters, however most of my scout friends ALWAYS invited me for their camping outings. Someday i'll pull down my Totebox's and take a few pic's of some of my 40+ year stash of electro/mech goodies. dtel, last year you made a comment as to my Cave overhead storage system, remember that? well what do you think is in those totes?.......goodies 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moving in this current homestead 6 years ago, i filled the wifes double car garage, and i mean filled. 40+ years collection of "Stuff", so moving in sept, by thanksgiving i had three stacks, Trash,Ebay, and Keep. Threw out the junk/trash, made $2700 bucks on the Bay, and the rest is in the overhead. Best idea iv ever had, you just need not be afraid to throw it out. Drinking wile sorting helps. By the way, overhead, i have two FULL totes of Cables 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billybob Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Sanitation engineer just brought us a new trashcan, extra heavy duty. The catflap had come off of the top.I will be bending an elbow the next time we do a Goodwill run or to the trash. Will have to watch how much I drink cause don't want to become too sentimental. Getting so sentimental nowadays until hard to part with a gum wrapper... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And on this final note of spring cleaning: Dont think for a second im not missing some stuff, i say to myself during a project, "i know iv seen that dam thing somewhere"! Then the thought kicks in, of course iv seen it, iv seen it for 40 years, but then i realize i tossed it. (happens about once a month)! Have a great day gang, finish coffee and off to the "Depot" Edited March 28, 2015 by minermark 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckAb3 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Good afternoon guys. Busy a.m. and missed the opening session. It's now "Diet Coke and Cables" for me anyway, Among other things, lined up a guy to install new outdoor carpet under our covered patio. Old stuff was a disgrace and had to be replaced before the neighbors started some kind of petition. Gary, hope you're having fun with your new Cambridge toy. I just passed on some new gear with property taxes, trips, etc., coming up. Buying the new to me Oppo also took the wind out of the old sails for spending any more. We retirees are already eating kibble, right? Later friends, and of course Cheers. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CECAA850 Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Just a gorgeous day here, mid 80's, sunny and breezy. mxrdad came over this morning and we loaded up the sub I built for him. After a little over an hour drive, we were bringing his refrigerator sized sub in the house. Took about an hour to get everything hooked up and calibrated. I think he liked it. I wouldn't be bit surprised if he ended up at the Dr's office next week for some botox to get the smile off his face. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
