noggins... that a person's head in US speak. Do you mean horizontal boards? Yeah that is one thing that is good about how houses are built here, when I ran the new water pipes from the attic (3rd floor), I just ran them through the wall in my daughter's closet and then through the master bedroom closet. No problem...
I put an additional 8" header above the wider spaced studs for structural overkill and cross members above and below the future shelving.... See the notches at the top of the studs.
I don't have the ones with the screw as the point. Just the paddle type... They suck for trying to go through 3 inches of stud. The auger and what they call an installer bit worked fast and you didn't run the chance of breaking your damn wrist like the paddle bits..
Arghhh yes. The new spade bit does the job of a auger bit without ripping your hand off if. It gets the job done with less effort. I'm sold on the fuckers. love'em.
Well when I went to the hardware store, which carried Bosch, they didn't have them in the store... Damn! I can usually slip a tool in with the materials and the wife (although she knows) never complains... I got a cool scraper tonight. Ha!
Finishing off the ceiling. Just need to putty the nail sinks and some final touch-ups... There is a center piece moulding left to install. Then to the dreaded floor!
I now know why people pay to have someone else install tile. Stone as a material is a bitch. Each tile has a different thickness. Some are thicker on one side than the other. Some are thick only in the middle. We did half the floor, and are now exhausted... But, it's looking good!
