i might be getting a shed in my backyard soon for band practicing, and i wanted to know if anybody had some tips to make it a good practice room. if anybody has some tips for things like cheap soundproofing, or anything i might need to make a room where i could pretty much practice in without living, that'd be really great.

Ok, bargain dweller here again, I am going to plant flats of seeds. I would like to do something like this that is CHEAP. take a sheet of plywood and mount wheels on the bottom and put planted seed flats on them and be able to pull then in the garage if it freezed over night, which is off and on in my area now, but mostly off. Actually, I found a child's toy at the 2nd hand store that was like a low flat wide wagon with wheels and got that. Any other creative ideas ? CHEAP. Plywood would warp with the weather, so that won't work and it doesn't have to be that big, but about 1/2 that size at least, I was trying to think of something plastic that size that I could mount wheels to. I hope this makes sense and no I don't want to put up a greenhouse, been there done that thanks ahead of time :)

I recently purchased a mid-80's condo with "plastic" base molding. I would like to repaint it. I will eventually replace the molding with wood when I put in hardwood floors...

So, for any of you out there who have attempted to paint your walls with Behr sandwash paint you will understand my pain. What did you do to salvage your walls? I'm afraid to paint over the sandwash because of all the uneven, splotchy areas and don't want to put more time and effort into sanding the walls and completely starting over (although that may be what I have to do).

Please give me some advice!!!

I have had for over a year now a heartbeat radiating from my head.Sometimes its better sometimes its worse..Sometimes I barely here it at all.I have been to two doctors regular and and vascular specialist and also asked numerous medical people about this.. all say its a natural thing nothing dangerous Ill just have to live with it and some swear im imagining it.. I don't buy the imagination because who wants to be able to hear their heartbeat night and day .If i was going to imagine something it would be something wonderful.My question is ok..I have had my exams ,I was told no test needed.. I have been looked over by a 30 year veteran nurse almost every other day ..says I don't have any symptoms of heart disease of artery disease or nothing.Ok..Ruled that all out.. However the last few days I have heard my pulse thundering in the back of my head.When I lay on a pillow with my neck propped forward and move it it makes a popping noise like something loose..Could there be a connection ?

This is on a valuable hardwood piece where a rather stupid repair was done with Gorilla Glue that never should have been repaired with the stuff.
Is there any evidence that Radio Frequency heating, locally applied, will cook the glue line enough to soften/release it? (Yes the hardwood piece is valuable enough to justify the RF cost.)

Most of everything I read says to sand lightly but someone told me they did not sand between coats and did not have a problem with the new coat adhering. I have already put one coat of fast drying Minwax polyurethane down. There is a new polyurethane from Minwax that says you do not have to sand between coats.....but, I already have the other kind of Minwax down that does recommend sanding. I didn't know whether to sand and put down the new kind with 2 more coats without sanding in between OR put the same kind down without sanding and see what happens....

I am considering installing a real hardwood floor in a small (half bath) because it is directly off a main hall where we will be puting hardwood. Installing the hardwood floor would result in raising the toilet about half an inch. Will this pose a problem? or can I get some kind of thicker wax ring and a set of longer floor bolts?????

I have always wanted to see a beautiful cascade of waters flowing over my toilet bowl rim. Can I accomplish this by myself or should I make some laxative brownies and throw a party?

I have been looking into "small houses" like 500 to 700 s.f. I know about the small house society, but ide like to find pictures and floor plans that might give me more of an idea. I like the concept of small houses, and would like to build one and live in it and see if I really can do this. Any ideas or thoughts on the subject would be news for me, thank you in advance.

I want to modify cabinets and countertop to accept a built-in convection wall oven. Someone mentioned the use of a "bottom-cut" saw to cut out the opening in the countertop.
