    carpet to tile transition

    It all depends on the ceramic edge. If it’s a cut edge with no sluter strip, then try to make it level, but if the ceramic has a nice factory bevel or sluter, then it doesn’t have to be level. I actually like the carpet 1/8” lower than C.Tile.

    carpet to tile transition

    Ok thx ! I would leave the shims and tkls. 1/4” to 5/16” away from ceramic and cut the carpet 3/8” heavy for a nice tuck. Hopefully the ceramic is not a cut edge but a factory micro beveled one for a nice finish. Ps> apply the hot glue 3/4” on backing. We are here for you and for a successful...

    carpet to tile transition

    How thick is the Berber ? Daris’s advice is spot on, he’s a master trainer ! ….you want it to be difficult to tuck into the gully, that way she stays there. As far as the gluing, I like to apply thermoplastic from a glue gun, appx 1/2” wide onto the backside, let it fully dry, then tuck into...

    Discussing politics and religion

    Nice 👍 I like that phrase: “ Evaluating The utility and validity of the movement they got sucked into “ 👍 Also that referenced book sounds really interesting ! “ Extraordinary popular delusion and the madness of crowds “ I guess my question at this moment would be, could the reaction to...

    Some of those basket weaving students become valuable. I Just saw this show on PBS last night, really cool 😎 It’s a shame most of us won’t live long enough to see the straight / LGBTQ+ changes, So ! Try to get comfortable with it, because before you know it, the only nursing assistant around to...

    Discussing politics and religion

    It’s like that old adage, “ No good deed goes unpunished “ 😖 …. As long as the concept of ‘ Opposites ‘ remains, and it so obviously will, the contrarian brain won’t be able to help itself but to see the obvious relationships and proclaim them to the world……. It’s actually my specialty 🤔😜😂…… And...

    Discussing politics and religion

    Nice observation ! and I believe that’s what’s goin-on around here 🎶 The active Dems and Repubs feel like they’re being lead aggressively by the other. So they are trying to rally the passive troops to become followers. However the followers are waiting for an Assertive Leader to show up, so we...

    Discussing politics and religion

    I use that phrase all the time when people ask, why aren’t you a partner with your brothers ? And the answer is simple. I didn’t understand when to be one of the three for my own good. I’m stubborn 🤨 Check out this interesting article. Written with some funny language, but keep reading as it...

    What did you do today?

    When I did high end measuring/ take offs and there was a complex layout, I would quote the contractor a pre-cut fee. One particular job was half pre-fab stair runners half wall to wall hallways. I completely installed the job in my head and then pre-cut and pre-sealed all the seams and labeled...

    Discussing politics and religion

    Never underestimate the power of the Brand. It will encompass more than any one individual ever can, smart or dumb, it doesn’t matter once that person gets the lightning in the Brandon bottle 😜 So you see, once we place (potential ) understanding to inconceivable outcomes, those outcomes begin...

    Bridging gap between two floors of different heights

    This baby threshold transition is appx 1/2” think and 2.50” wide. It has a lip on both sides, tuck the carpet under one and overlap the LVP on the other. I actually built up the carpet side appx 1/8” to accommodate a better height match. Notice the lip sticking up slightly on the LVP side 😡 I’ll...

    Discussing politics and religion

    Liberal or conservative research, 🔬 is no guarantee for success or failure, because success, short term can fail and failure, short term can ultimately succeed. 🤷🏻‍♂️ and then you wake up and start all over.

    Saw Stop mandate being discussed

    Is that because government bureaucrats make things more complicated ? I’ll add another word to that list, ( unfortunate ) and an anti FDF comment, that could guide to possible improvements…..Since wood working has risks and insurance companies are all about minimizing risk, maybe they could...

    Saw Stop mandate being discussed

    That guy is really cool 😎 and so is that invention. 🙇‍♂️ I think we can use that newly introduced phrase thanks to Incognito 🥸 on this Saw stop technology all or nothing approach (FDF false dilemma fallacy ) and clearly see the answer as described in that video. Education around pre-existing...
