Cordless nailers are becoming more popular everyday. Early models featured a gas fuel cell, a rechargeable battery, and eliminate the hassle of air hoses and compressors. Now cordless nailers are showing up and their making a BIG SPLASH!
This weekend the TBB Crew of contractors got together to perform a cordless nailer Head-2-Head test. We looked at 10 different nailers and were BLOWN AWAY with the
results....look for our article and video in a few weeks.
Lastly, check out our Festool Giveaway in the right sidebar and our newly published a DIY Holiday Gift Guide if you're looking for some great gift ideas.

Hanging Heavy Items On A Wall?
Having a photographer for a wife lends itself to having many beautiful pictures of our family hanging on the walls.
When the items are heavy you want to make sure they are secure, in that case you want to use a French cleat.
A french cleat is a system traditionally used to hang cabinets and consists of a flat piece of wood or metal cut anywhere from 30-45
degrees mounted to a wall. The matching piece is mounted to the back of the cabinet. The two pieces interlock and the weight of the piece pulls the cleat halves together.
Living in the North means shoveling snow, salting your walkway and stairs, and plowing your driveway (or paying someone to do it for you). Over time this becomes a hassle and is probably the reason so many older people become “snow birds” and move South.
After trying a few different mat snow-melting systems, we recently began working with a company called Warmup
Inc.
Probably the biggest advantage of all is this is the safety of family and visitors to your home.
