Hey, I know a guy who sells hardwood. :)

When we put our office together plywood counter/formica top was the cheapest way to go by a mile.

I always thought granite was incredibly expensive, but obviously I'm wrong.

PM notorious for floors. There was a guy with the screen name of RJ IIRC that used to sell flooring, but I haven't seen him in a good long time.

PM Cjizzles for flooring too. :thumb:

Well,

I know A guy who is looking to buy around 1000' of it and has put it up here twice with no response. I'm looking at options for Hickory.

Well, what sort of subfloor are you on? Basement below? Is it pre-finished or unfinished?

You like hickory cabinets and potentially hickory floors? Are the cabinets you're looking at a stained hickory or just clear coated?

Do you like the rustic, look and feel of handscraped/distressed hardwood?

Are you doing the installation yourself? Kids or pets?

I had no idea you sold flooring. Ill lock that in the memory bank. Good to know man.

Flooring I might be in the market for.

We have a spare bedroom downstairs that we've only used to store summer/winter clothes and coats and it's been empty other than that.

We went in about a week ago and there were about 10 small spots of grey mold. Fuzzy, grey/white in color, and thank God no impact on the wife's alergies.

1)What is this and what's the best way to rid our house of it?
2)Once we rip the carpet out is this something that might warp or damage a hardwood floor?...

Electrical advice needed for simpleton. I have 2 outdoor outlets, one on my deck and one on my pergola. I have a GFCI outlet in my basement that they run off of (???). I'm installing some rope lights on the pergola. I plugged the rope lights into the GFCI outlet and they worked. When I took them outside to the pergola outlet and plugged them in, they didn't work. So I walked downstairs to the GFCI outlet and the red light was on. I pressed the reset button and it sparked a bit. Now nothing that I plug into the GFCI outlet or my 2 outdoor outlets work. Circuit breaker looks fine.

What did I do and how can I fix it? Did that GFCI outlet save my life?

Sparks in anything electrical is bad. When was the last time you plugged anything into the outside outlets? Right now you'd probably have to start by replacing the GFI and go from there.

I haven't plugged anything into the outdoor outlets since Spring when squirrels chewed through my string lights. They have covers and I didn't see any nests or moisture in them.

I was just seeing if it was years.

GFI sounds bad. Since the wall breaker hasn't flipped I'd say it's internal to the GFI. Could be something shorted past it of course but the place to start is the GFI.

Replace the breaker

I'd like to go on record after 3 weeks of purchasing piles and piles of building supplies from local, Lowes and Menards.....Menards is NOT the Walmart of the big box lumber yard....It is the Dollar General.

Mouth breathing morons abound in that place, and they're department managers. I declare they help me invent new swear words.

Are you still looking for Hickory and have you found an installer that is capable?
