Besides connecting them with some sort of a y-pipe is there anything else needed? I am wanting to hook up 2 compressors, one a 20 gallon, other a 26 gallon, the cfm difference is by about 1-2 from the 20 gal to the 26 gal.

I need this for more consistant pressure and air flow for my paint gun to paint cars with.

I just had my bathroom completely redone and would like to remove the several layers of old lumpy paint on the door frame and repaint it so it looks nicer. I realize I should have probably removed it before or as the work was going on, but did not think to do that at the time. If I use a paint stripper on the door frame do you think I am taking a chance is ruining the wall tiles or grout if the stripper ended up on some of the tiles? Is there a way to protect the tiles while I strip the paint? From what I can see the door frame is actually a metal frame. I would rather not use a heat gun and take a chance of melting the tiles off the walls.

i live in a condo and my neighbor next door was so loud there was not a place in my unit i could go where you could not hear what he was watching even though the walls are concrete and he leaves his tv on all night. after repeatedly asking him to turn it down, leaving notes, contacting h.o.a. who did nothing because he knows them, i had to call the police after he started beating and kicking on my wall at 1 am then came to my front door was beating on it while i was sleeping. he told the police that i did not actually see him so it couldn't have been him. i also complained about him standing up against the wall and listening. even the h.o.a. person was freaked out because he did it when she was in my bathroom, but she did nothing. eventually he put up quiet rock, which should have solved the problem, but he only turned it louder. when i thought he was still trying to listen to me i stuffed the electrical sockets and he started kicking the walls while i was covering them. what do i do?

Anyone know anything or have experience with replacing a cracked mirror on a dresser? The mirror is a 3' x 3' custom shape, can anyone give me a ballpark figure as to how much it may be for them to take out the cracked one, cut out the shape, and install it?

I spoke to a tile guy recently and he told me that only cement board is acceptable for use in bathrooms. He said that green board is not. Why do the sell the greenboard if you cannot use it in bathrooms or areas that will take moisture?

It does not matter if it is just the color of the blankets, whatever you think. I am a procrastinator and my due date is coming quicker and quicker. Right now, it is just an empty room. So any ideas that you have will be welcome.

I'm trying to salvage the baseboards and doors in a rental property I'm planning on sanding and repainting. Any suggestions as to what kind of paint to use (oil or latex)? Is it possible to use polyurthane (or something simular) over the paint to try to protect the finish?

So far one cold day they settled in the insulation of the hood to our car and ate the insulation along with battery wires in the car. This was a nightmare requiring us to tow our car back to the dealer to get it fixed. They are a menace. And today they ate fake flowers and plants in our front yard.

I bought some Oleander about two years ago and the first year it did great. The second year it didnt even come out of the ground and this the third year it is about 3 feet tall with only 2 shoots showing. No blooms as of yet but the Live Nursery Specialist at my local Lowes says it should bloom by the end of the summer. Does anyone have any Oleander blooming in zone 7 yet that has not been planted this season?

I am only 7wks 4days pregnant, so I don't really see a problem with it yet, but my family jumped my case today for mowing the yard, raking and doing some weed pulling. (BTW, I'm 25, happily married and I live on my own, just FYI)
It was pretty hot today, in the 90's, but I stayed hydrated and used gloves when pulling weeds, making sure to wash really well afterwards to prevent contact with possible toxoplasmosis. They say this is too much for a pregnant woman even if she is only in her first trimester. I plan on hiring someone to do the yardwork for me since my husband is deployed and unable to do it himself, lol, but today was a down to the wire thing. The place I live does yard inspections so I have to have my lawn cut, edged and all the flowerbeds weeded or I get a citation.
I was really tired afterwards, mostly because I was also chasing my toddler around during all this, but it was nothing a nap couldn't fix. So is my family right? Or am I fine as long as I don't feel strained
