Something out of the ordinary today - I was asked by Porch to do a question and answer style post. And since I rarely talk personal here's your chance to get to know a little more about me!
If you haven't heard of Porch yet they are an online network where you can find the right professionals with referrals for all your home projects. It's a grand home improvement network for those projects that are beyond DIY, Porch helps you find reputable peeps.
For this Q & A I'll be answering a few questions here and then you'll want to click over to the Porch Advice Blog to read the other juicy half.
What's your DIY weapon of choice?
Sliding compound miter circular saw
My real weapon of choice is my hands, they're invaluable to me so don't drill through your pointer finger ever! It really hurts and the nerve took 2 months to come back.
Words of wisdom for someone remodeling on a budget?
Use what you have first and foremost. I always shop my house first including my basement which is full of cast offs and wood scraps. Lots of things can be transformed into something else with a little imagination, maybe rebuild it or add some paint. I like to pretend there is a zero budget, collect everything I have and can use for the remodel and then make the purchases that I really want.
What's the weirdest thing you've collected?
Railing spindles.
No project plans yet but I'm holding on to them because they're so skinny, twisty and spindly.
