    How NOT to run a Craigslist ad

    $20 for 3 bottles or $1.99 or goodwill I see them all the time. Last time I was there there was a case of them minus 1 . Ceramic tops and brown..... $22 plus tax.

    Harvesting Coriander

    Well apparently I am a dumba$$...... 2 dollar a pound. The last time I bought it I paid $80 a pound! It was a 1.2 ounce jar, but still! I will have to look and see if their is an indian store around here. And I was so proud of the 2.2 ounces I got for nothing but a half hour of my time! I do...

    Harvesting Coriander

    Not bad considering I didn't plant them, didn't pull weeds more than twice around them, cut cilantro for Mexican food an untold number of times, heck, I never even bothered to water them and now I have something to brew with.

    Harvesting Coriander

    I was able to get another ounce out of the garden. Should be able to get through this winter's brewing sessions with what I got.

    Measure twice, but your fridge once

    Lol..... 6 years is not bad for delay! I finally installed the lamp post we bought on 06 when we bought our house. I made the marble base for it, I just never got around to burying the electrical, setting the footing, etc etc. Finally got around to that this spring. That and all the baby...

    Brewery Auction

    Those stainless tables are so cheap.... I wish it was closer to me and I would replace the counter in my garage and work bench in the basement

    Huckleberries!!

    That was my first thought also.... I might have to look and see if that is on Netflix or something, been a long time since I've seen that movie and it is suppose to storm this afternoon.

    Measure twice, but your fridge once

    I went through and re read.... So you do have the clearance you need already and from what I read if I understand what they are saying, you don't need any clearance in the back... -1". That means you fridge is ventilated on the front at the bottom both intake cool air and output hot air. The...

    Harvesting Coriander

    I just measured the coriander I harvested.... I got 1.35 ounces. Then I looked at the container I bought last year for 6 bucks. 2/3rds gone and 1.2 ounces. I think I should go try to harvest a little more because that was with the chaff still in it..

    Measure twice, but your fridge once

    So what did you come up with..... my vote is to just remove the wall on the left but then you have to deal with the upper cabinet end, counter end and the lower cabinet end plus what ever needs to be covered up on the floor. Second easiest option in my opinion is remove drywall on the left and...

    Harvesting Coriander

    So this year I was not going to do a garden so I could concentrate on painting my house, refinishing a bedroom and finish putting together my kitchen. The only thing in my garden that I planted this year was centennial hops which are doing awesome. My garden, however, had other ideas. I just...

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    As you can see from the picture I did do some damage to the original finish on the lower part of the door but i will repair that. That is the nice thing about shellac it can be repaired unlike polyurethane. Considering all the spots of paint I took off that amount of damage is nothing. There was...

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    Another note about these scrapers, I was able to remove the shellac from the floor of a room, recycle it and reapply it to the floor. I was Also able to remove hundred year old paint drips from a door without damaging the original finish too much. I also removed stickers from a mirror. USE...

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    I have tried sharpening the the curved blade that came with the Purdy scraper with great success. You cannot use a regular file with carbide you need to go get a diamond hone available at harbor freight to about 12 bucks. Get the4 sided one because it has a base so you don't have to use a clamp...

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    Yes ... real wood and yes I would much rather have stained the wood than paint it but a hundred years of nail holes , scratches and gouges filled with painthave made that impossible. The house was originally stained and covered with shellac. The scrapers are several brands, Purdy was the first...

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    Been a while since I have been on , I have been way too busy working on our house and have not even had time to brew. Thanks everyone for the input. We finally settled on Glidden/ PPG Premium. We bought it when home depot was having their sale over the 4th. But the coolest thing I have learned...

    Brewie

    If anyone is looking for a refurbished unit they have one on Amazon for $950. Nothing in the description about how it is refurbished (replaced wires etc) but for that price you can do the replacement yourself and have money left for a number of brews along with a keg setup.

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    I went to research acrylic versus latex paint..... what a disaster! The first page that pops up on yahoo is apparently wrong as a commentor pointed out after that several other articles looked like they copied the same wrong information so I cam away with no credible information whatsoever.

    House paint that doesn't suck? Home restoration.

    I have had the same issues with caulk. Try siliconized acrylic latex caulk. Make sure it has a warrant of 30+ years on it. I was getting some previously that had a 45 year warranty but could only find some with 40 the other day. Plain latex shrinks and hardens and eventually will crack and fail...
