132: Shower Niche Options for Bathroom Remodeling Sep 16, 2015

Show notes

If you’re remodeling your shower you need a shower niche.

It’s more modern than a crappy soap dish…seriously!!

We like pre-made shower niches by Schluter and Wedi.

But you can also make your own niche.

You can use cement board (Permabase or DuRock) or Wedi panels or Schluter panels.

But there are certain tips for each variation. Listen to the show for the details.

129: DeWalt's New Cordless Sliding Compound Miter Saw Sep 11, 2015

Show notes

DeWalt’s new cordless sliding compound miter saw is out.

It’s power source is a DeWalt’s 20V Max Li-Ion battery.

The total weight is only 30 pounds, so it’s super portable.

We did a complete review over on Home Repair Tutor but today’s show gives you a small taste of what the saw has to offer.

Check out the review over on HRT

http://www.homerepairtutor.com/

In today’s show I mention Bob from I Like to Make Stuff.

If you haven’t watched one of his YouTube videos you should.

Check out his website here

Finally, if you have a water leak in your basement you can use Hydraulic Cement to quickly fix it.

BUT I recommend you fix any leaks by addressing the problem on the outside of the house.

Hydraulic cement is just a bandage, a really good bandage!

128: Ryobi's New Cordless Hand Auger and Caulking Removal Sep 10, 2015

Show notes

Is your kitchen or bathroom sink clogged?

You might want to buy a hand auger.

Ryobi recently came out with their cordless hand auger.

You can use this to clear clogs that are hard to reach.

We recommend mechanically removing clogs instead of using chemical cleaners.

Because chemicals can often do more harm than good.

Check out ToolGuyd’s review on the Ryobi cordless hand auger

http://toolguyd.com/ryobi-cordless-drain-auger/

Btw, here’s a great tutorial I made on how to unclog a kitchen sink…thought this might help
