Last I checked, if the target weed is VBW, it seemed the amount recommended on the label was actually at or above the centipede max.
What is the correct water proofing strategy for cultured marble? My cultured marble shower leaked horribly but unbeknownst to me for a long time. When I demoed it, it was surprising to me that there was no membrane behind/under it. If water made it thru the caulk lines at the joints, the water was in your wall. I was shocked by this after doing a lot of research on shower installs. I went to a local dealer that specializes in cultured marble installs. They informed me that their installs are exactly like the one that failed on me before. They said I just need to touch up the caulk joints periodically. Is this really the strategy? I think I’d rather have tile with a waterproof membrane under/behind.

Here’s a YouTube link for a good Joel Salatin equipment economics talk. I realize your place is not a working farm, but this relates to my advice to rent.

Unless there’s major money to burn, I’d rent instead of own. Rent a cab/air model for a couple weeks during the summer time when you don’t want to be working in the heat.

I have one. Had to replace the first one after only 2 years. Bought hr this second one from Costco so that a return may be a little easier if this one only lasts 2 years again.
Edit: sounds like it was the deal of the century for somebody!
Bumping this one back to the top. Sounds like some drama may be afoot. Any OTers have the skinny?

I bought some in mid Feb at its last low point. Jumped 30% the next day. One and only example of good timing in my life.

Kroll is bought and paid for by the deer farming industry. I think he even supports being able to transport captive whitetails between enclosures will nilly.

Non-smokers have been known to die of cancer so a pack-a-day habit is no big deal….

I took the bait. I won’t argue anymore. I just really really despise, hate, abhor, loathe baiting in the game woods. Ill leave it there.

I’d steer clear of sharp object if I were you.

Baiting is the cause of so many problems, I don’t know if I care whether it impacts CWD spread or not. I am glad that something seems to prompt these bans whether legitimate or not.
A lot. It hurt. My insurance, taxes, and shortage are way more than the P&I.
Insurance company and tax assessor would like a word.
If you did not own this home already and it were for sale, would you purchase it for FMV as rental/ investment? If not, then you need to sell it.

For a benchmark, the people doing well at this have gross monthly rental income that was 1% of the purchase prices of the house. I think that number is harder to achieve now, but that’s why it’s gotten less lucrative.

This. The op may be needing something for guns that he can’t see down the bore while keeping aim, but if he can, nothing special is needed.

I guess. I’m under 40 but experienced enough to know my record of spotting the good deals is pretty shitey.
The company we lease from won’t even talk about specific leases to anyone but the license holder.
Maybe the seller “owns” the property through an owner financing arrangement.
