Participantseen a wall that ends in the center of a room to divide the room. say between a kitchen and dining room? Sure. As long as it is well secured to top and bottom, You may want to secure it to studs on top of the pocket door frame to prevent movement. But it should be fine.

Participantand in your expertise. But is DIYer going to think. “Elephant Snot, I gotta get me some of that!!”
I also hear that Seawater from the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Alabama, Louisiana or Mississippi can now also remove varnish.

ParticipantHere is the answer that has been posted before:
Removing paint or varnish from brick is always a challenge. And no matter how hard you try, there will always be a residual of “paint points” in the brick. The method I have used and like the best is to use a 7″ hand power grinder, using a 40 grit carborundum disk. This really rips the old paint off but doesn’t seem to damage the surface of the brick. Hearing, eye and ear protection are a must……and having arms like Arnold Schwarzennegger is a big plus, as the arms do get a bit tired after a while. But its fast!! An acid wash following the grind off process will help get most of the paint off. Try 1491 Acid which is more user friendly than Muratic and safer. Still a chemical hazard namely if it gets under a finger nail so always where chemical resistant gloves and eye protection. Hope this helps.Greg

ParticipantUse a deglosser or sand it a bit to get something for the paint to get a tooth in and then paint it.
There are kits you can buy to paint formica. I am guessing they would work on this surface.

ParticipantA leak. could be tile and grout failure.
You definitely have some type of failure or you would not be able to take off the tiles. But it may not be a leak (well it is now since you have removed the tiles but that can be repaired.
If your shower has been leaking for 13 years you should have some mold or damage in that wall and I would get it checked out.

ParticipantHow about we fill the pipe with lawyers? They are like sharks so they can swim down there on their own.
They can be greasy and slimy so they will fit right into the pipe.
Tell them they are doing a good job. and their ego’s will expand sooo much it will clog the pipe permanently.

ParticipantIf its a steel pipe.
Why not crimp it until you drill into it later.
It may not stop the flow but wouldn’t it at least slow it down.
Handyman
ParticipantWait I think i heard that was one of your scientist’s ideas.
How about plugging it 1,000,000,000 pounds sterling. That ought to do it.
Handyman
ParticipantJust like driving a car.
Mowing the lawn.I would be willing to bet most accidents are caused by being in a rush, not paying full attention, not using all the safeties etc. It is more than likely the operator who is at fault.
That said I still like the idea of the adding the safety.
Handyman
Participantyou can probably use stucco.

Participantwhere you bought the fan.
i do not believe you will need the exact part number as they sell a standard pull switch.the pull switches wear out all the time.
Make sure to turn off the power at the breaker.

ParticipantMy father ran much his middle index and thumb through a saw when he was hurrying through a project in my grandfathers work shop.
After cleaning blood off the ceiling of the workshop and off the ceiling of the kitchen from when my grandfather looked at the wound and the blood expelled from my fathers hand like a fountain at the Bellagio. I have an extremely healthy respect for these machines. I have not replaced mine since this device came out but if I were to, I would get one with this device. I just read on the saw stop site: “If you activate the safety system brake, you will need to replace or repair the blade and replace the brake cartridge. Replacing the brake cartridge is simple and takes less than five minutes. A standard brake cartridge costs $69 and a dado brake cartridge $89. SawStop saws are designed to absorb the force of activation and are not damaged by it.”
And if you are cutting wet wood, disposing of a body or other conductive material you just put it in bypass mode.
