Keep putting those traps out until you stop catching them. Leave em out for a while after they stop showing up in the traps as well.

Felix Potvin. He was pretty cool for a year.

The cream egg story is pure gold.

Honestly Bill, I could care less. I really enjoy the banter in this thread. The back and forth is quite humourous at times. That said, there will always be a next year, and if the past 48 seasons are any indication, I cant wait to follow this thread again next year. re·build rēˈbild/ verb verb: rebuild; 3rd person present: rebuilds; past tense: rebuilt; past participle: rebuilt; gerund or present participle: rebuilding; verb: re-build; 3rd person present: re-builds; past tense: re-built; past participle: re-built; gerund or present participle: re-building 1. build (something) again after it has been damaged or destroyed.

Nah, he's not. The leafs suck, straingt up. Face it. I used to work with a couple real ignorant leafs fans that would put down any other team...even in times like these. Not only that be real ignorant to people for not liking the leafs. A real high and mighty attitude they carried around. What boggles my mind the most about the so called leafs fans, is after they have failed more miserably than their last season, "its time to do worse, so we can get that draft spot". My god. Every year, the same Bull.... The leafs are a joke of a franchise. They should be removed from the league(imo) and replaced by bringing back Quebec. The leafs cant even lose a game properly.

I love this thread.

Butt ends of the sheets "should" be square. When making a butt joint, its best to only use factory ends. Mudding a butt, requires it to be feathered out significantly more than a standard beveled edge. Try to keep the butt joints as tight as possible.

Not the best pictures but these may help. The first picture shows a fire rated system. The second, is a typical installation, for housing, or non rated walls. No not familiar with either names.

Alrighty, a horizontal sheet, is reffered to a laying the sheet down. A vertical sheet, with the 4' (butt edge) on the floor is known as standing the sheet. In steel stud construction, and in fire rated wood partitions, the drywall must be stood on its 4' edge. The reason for that is so the joint(beveled edge/seam) would be continously backed by the stud. This doesnt allow for air moviement between the sheets, A sheet layed down spans the studs, meaning that air can pass through on the beveled edge between the studs. Where air can pass through, fire can penetrate. Wood stud is known to have movement in the drying process, if lumber is not competely dry when drywall is installed, there is a chance of cracking as a stud can warp or move as it dries. Basements generally have moisutre content which can be absorbed by the wood, absorbtion and drying can also cause movement. In a situation with wet wood, even screws will pop. Which leads me to your next comment. Modern day housing is built any time of the year. Many builders dont wait for wood to dry, sometimes even in winter building. Houses go up pretty fast these days, and the budget minded builder tend to cut corners ie, finger jointed studs. Screw pops can relate to a number of things, generally moisture, or structural shifting. Which is why in steel stud construction, load bearing wall's typically use a deflective top plate. Alowing for movement without buckling the drywall. Housing not so much. Rusted screws is definitely not good. There must be high moisture content. I did some drywall at the YMCA here in Peterborough a few years back in the pool area. One of the spec's was that we must use galvanized screws, due to the moisture content as well as chlorine. Galvanized screws dont rust. Hope this answer some of your questions.

Anyone that uses an impact will not have as good results as those who use a drywall gun. That is a fact. As I mentioned, there is lots of good advice, anyone can choose to do it any way they wish. Results may vary.....

I have done a lot of houses where builders wont allow the use of ring nails. Nails are know for popping. Lots of shackers prefer nails though. Its quicker to tack sheets with nails. Personally I use all screws. Screws dont back out. And every corner bead I have ever seen that nails were used for installion cracks and breaks apart. In some cases even falling off. There has been a lot of good pieces of advice offered here by many. Its up to you to decide which methods work best for you. Everyone has a different way of doing things. Just for the record, impact guns are the absolute worst drywall installion. As someone else mentioned an actual cordless drill, would be the way to go if you decide you dont want to use a drywall gun. I prefer Makita's tools myself. 6000rpm drywall gun, and cordless lithium, drill/impact combo set are what I use for framing/boarding. Bosch pretty much makes the best drywall routers too. The Dewalt versions are screamers.

Local, Unmarked/ghost Ford Escape. Pulled up beside me, looked at me, slowed signaled over and on came the cherries. This is just a theory, my brother suggested. He was likely using the traffic act, as a means to check my vehicle or me for illegal scents. As soon as he approached the window he stuck his head in and took a whiff, As mentioned in the other thread I was eating a chicken burger. All he got was the smell of wendy's.

Thanks for the tip. Was wondering how to do that.

Still not sure how to use all the features of this board. I wanted to edit the original thread to updated, but cant figure out how to change the name. This is a continuation from the original thread. http://ontariofishingcommunity.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=77528 Had to meet the prosecutor this morning. He asked a couple questions, Was I given 72 hours - No. What time of day was it - 1:58 in the aft. I have pictures of the day in question. Do you have day time running lights - Yes. You are free to go I will withdraw it. While it was a bit of a waste of time, it saved me pleading guilty to something stupid and a 150 dollar fine.

In housing, unless its less than 4' wide, say the side of a closet, never stand a sheet up on wood. Always lay them down. A rotozip is a great tool but definitely has a learning curve. You may mess up a few if you have never done it before. Also read the rotozip instructions as there is a correct way to use them. Guide point router bits are a good help too, as its easy to cut through a box, or its little tabs that hold the recepticle in place with your standard sabre cut bits. As a proffesional i strongly suggest against using the dimpler suggested in the previous post. There is no replacement for a drywall gun. Fang, never stand your sheets up on wood, especially in a basement. Unless you dont mind going to fix cracks. Again, if its less than 4' feel free to stand them. Or if you are boarding a fire wall. Also always board from the ceiling down, Never stack upwards to the ceiling. Standing sheets is for fire rated systems, generally on steel stud, but sometimes wood in row housing where units are connected. The idea is that the seam of the board is backed continuously. Fire rated partitions are designed this way mostly in commercial applications, providing a specified burn time, based on the thickness and layers of drywall.

Makita and DeWalt both make battery operated drywall guns. Strip loading guns are neat, but strips need to be bought and usually arent cheap. You can start with a few, but mos need to be reloaded with screws. If you dont splurge for a box of strips. Which I believe costs a lot more than a box of screws. While they may seem easier, they are also prone to jamming. Nothing worse than getting a sheet over your head and have a strip jam on you. Most all drywall guns come with a belt clip as well. So I wouldnt worry about a holster. Especially with a strip loading gun. Likely wouldnt fit. From a proffesional stand point( I have done Commercial and Residential drywall for years) buy a corded gun. Rigid, DeWalt, Makita, and Milwaukee, all make fairly decent corded guns, to name a few, most for a decent price. The trick for ceilings is after a screw is sunk, flip your gun so you are holding the body of the gun, not the grip, and use the gun to hold the sheet up while grabbing a screw with your other hand. Place the screw on the gun while you and it are holding the sheet in place then switch hands. A screw pouch comes in handy for this. Another good idea if using a corded gun, is to hang your extension cord at the connection over your tool belt, so you always have the reach of the lenght of the guns cord. This way you generally dont have to worry about setting your stool or ladder on your guns cord.

Hi all, we have a 4 man ice bungalow booked through loon lodge next weekend. We arrive friday and leave monday. A buddy was up already and said the bungalows were on 80 fow, and there is a fishing shack within walking distance of the bungalow. Does anyone have any tips for ice fishing Temagami? Been 20 years or so since I last fished on the ice up there. While not overly interested in Ling, we may try for them at night if fishing is slow. Were more interested in Pickeral and Trout. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Sorry folks, I wasnt trying to turn this into a debate on driving etiquette, or ethics. Simply a warning on what the "flavor of the month" was here in Ptbo. I will not debate at this point weather I was in the right or wrong until that has been decided by the courts. We all have had run in's with good and bad officers. God bless the good guys. We all appreciate them when we need them and by chance we meet them.

Monday I went down to the offenses office, and requested a trial. Have to wait now for a piece of paper to show up, so I know what time to meet the prosecutor. We'll see where it goes from there. If they wanna follow through with it, and take it to court, ill gladly follow up with that as well. Only delays how long I have to pay it, if for some reason I'm found guilty. About wasting the courts time/dollars, I will gladly waste their time and money. I already had to take time off work to go the office, and ill likely have to again, to meet the prosecutor. Who's wasting who's time and money here....They shouldnt be giving out tickets like that when almost every time im out (here in Peterborough) I see several ticketable offenses. So many extremely bad drivers here.

Im guessing this will get tossed as well. As soon as he signaled back on to the road he cut 3 lanes and rounded a corner pulling another truck over for the same thing. That truck also had its running lights on.

Haha, Good one. I wasnt speeding, and when he came and asked for my papers I had to ask why I was pulled over. To be completely honest, I was eating a hamburger. Apparently that wasnt a problem though. I also have a perfect driving record, and have never had any problems like this before. (knocks on wood) If he really wanted to get me, my Ford Escape, has a lock on the receiver which is full of salt, and I cant get the key in it. Hitch is on all the time. I would have gladly taken that one.

Definitely a bad call in my opinion, And I will be seeing him in court. My daytime running lights are always on. They come on when the vehicle is started. Even in my old civic, as soon as the e-brake was released the drl's would come on. He claimed it was inclimate weather, and I had my windshield wipers on. Also that because my vehicle is gray, its harder to see.

Was on my way out to a buddy's house to finish some drywall work I had been doing, and was pulled over by the Peterborough police. Fined 110 dollars for not having my lights on at 1:50 in the afternoon. Took this picture while pulled over. He cited section 62(1) on the ticket, Lamps required on all motor vehicles except motorcycles 62. (1) When on a highway at any time from one-half hour before sunset to one-half hour after sunrise and at any other time when, due to insufficient light or unfavourable atmospheric conditions, persons and vehicles on the highway are not clearly discernible at a distance of 150 metres or less, every motor vehicle other than a motorcycle shall carry three lighted lamps in a conspicuous position, one on each side of the front of the vehicle which shall display a white or amber light only, and one on the rear of the vehicle which shall display a red light only. R.S.O. 1990, c. H.8, s. 62 (1). No real crime today im guessing?
