Hello dear!

About to hit the road for some vroom vroom action. Most likely I'll be driving like a grandma though.

Well the drywall was water-damaged and the paneling was a bit rotten and unfortunately was concealing some rot in the staircase itself, so now it looks like I need to have someone replace the last 6" or so of the stair case and a couple of the steps.

Today I'm going to rip out some more ceiling. I hope I don't find any more wire-nutted Romex encased in the ceiling. These dummies put in an interlocking ceiling on the floor joists and have wire running in it that isn't in conduits, circuits patched in with wire nuts/not in an electrical box...

Yikes! Sounds like it is a good thing that you're pulling things apart. Now you can fix them properly and have some peace of mind

No, I have no interest in living in the center of the known universe.

Good Luck on the process..!!!

)

Morning~~~~ Tracie honey~~~

Morning Rafael...

Sup ZMan8...??

Morning Everyone..!!!!

Nice and Warm in Toronto..

I hope to get out to the garage, but I'm looking after the little guy, then scoring some imaginary brownie points by cleaning the house before Mrs.Force gets home from work.

But it is so mild outside that it would be a very good time to work on my full size 3D puzzle. Hmmm... Imaginary brownie points, or working on the car....

Good Saturday everyone

I am just swimming with ideas lately. I think I figured out that I can use pretty much any spray paint I want to to the strut tower brace as long as I use it sandwiched between Dupli-Color's Engine Enamel primer and clear. Ms. BC, I suspect if you took it to a specialty shop, they could do what ever you want, but I'm looking for a DIY solution. Dupli-Color has other options as well with a variety of paints that withstand temps up to 500F (or least intermittently - I think only the caliper paint resists continually).

It is certainly crazy what some people consider acceptable construction

Electrical and structural problems can be extremely serious matters and should be corrected without delay. I hope everything works out with your renovations. Just don't think about the problems - end result, end result, end result

Depends on what those imaginary brownie points get you in the real world

Nothing major. I have video of the optional opening and closing sequence for the Defi gauges. I also have a video that shows the red/amber colour.

I can take a picture of some rolled up silicone vacuum hose or take a screen shot of an Uprev download.
