There is no longer a site compatibility with the Tapatalk app anymore.
When I try to login it refuses with a “Network Error” prompt.

Ugh….this is one of the reasons why my posting slowed down….
It shouldn’t be more difficult to post pics here than anywhere else.
Can someone remind me on the correct way to to post photos again?

How about making this thread disappear? Seems there is not much in the way of putting ideas forward. It’s just turned into a gripe session.

That’s an excellent idea at this juncture Jim.

In fact, today I made a decision. I don’t want to be here any longer either. It’s a dying forum, and Bosch just doesn’t…

Finished the base course on the block. Ready to pack and stack on Monday.

Just a follow up from earlier…
Didn’t have to leave the block wall job today as expected as my material arrived earlier than planned (which was a good thing).
I managed to finish prepping the sub base and base.
I don’t know how every other person preps for their block, but I was taught to over prep where possible.
The sub base was packed in…[Read more]

I’m tackling some last minute framing that got overlooked at the house we’re working on, then heading to the backyard of the same build to prep out the sub base for a block retaining wall, then after that in heading back over to a modular home development to help with siding and entry deck construction.

SPAM!

Howdy.
Haven’t been here for QUITE a long time.
Nothing that happened here in the forum drove me away… I just drifted to other social platforms, and even then (as of late) I’ve slowed down on my postings.
Just a little burnt out from staring at my screen so damn much.

But, I’d like to begin to devote some time back to BTP because I really do…[Read more]

Just trying to stir a bit of conversation here….would it be allowable to place a grade beam around the perimeter, under the slab, and then tie that to helical piers?

It is possible in one pour, but for a water feature you may be better suited to do two pours. If you were to incorporate a water stop in your base pour that tied in to your vertical pour, then you would already have protection against the inevitable cracking that happens with concrete.
Look in to some building details on keyways and waterstops.

I seem to have 2 of them at the time and only one router.

Happens to me as well then I ask myself how did that happen? Hope you get it traded off.

What would you like to trade for it @dirtywhiteboy ? I’d like to have two of them to make mortises….I have one already.

Howdy folks…old faces and new.
I just wanted to drop in and give thanks to the members of BeThePro that continue to follow, comment, and refer me to giveaways over on Instagram.

I made up a couple of drilling jigs for the door slabs on the project I’m currently working on. They ain’t pretty, but they work. Materials are just scrap baseboard and sill stock, and that little contraption that comes with the prehung units that holds them together through the latch bore.
All the slabs get hardware with through posts (a post…[Read more]

Just dropping in for a quick tool post! Finally had a chance to mount a router to the Rousseau table today… I’m sold. So handy. I had to rip 40 pieces of trim down and add a small round over to the ripped edge.

Marrettes (sp?)
The electrician usually has a few to spare… Or just grab some when you’re at the store.

Nice giving new life to an old saw,, love the dust collection!

Yeah! All good until I dropped the arbor nut in it while changing a blade 😁

I don’t mean to spam the forum with random posts… But I’m just slowly getting back in to the BTP posting rhythm…
An update on the saw… It performed beautifully. I put a full kerf 24 tooth 8-1/4 blade on it today and it just hummed through 12mm laminate. Even the existing blade break technology worked fine. The previous owner threw a longer,…[Read more]
