From the Editor:
The crazy Holiday Season is upon us and we're all working hard on all kinds of
deadlines before the year ends. Next week we should have at least one, if not two new tool Head 2 Head articles wrapped up. We know these take time to publish and many of you have been asking about them on a regular basis. Fear not, we've not fallen behind, we're just working hard to be sure we deliver great content and answers for all of you.
So be on the look out in the coming days for our Level H2H and our High Demand Circular Saw H2H. We've also got some exciting
building material reviews coming in the near future as well.

Timberland PRO® Workwear
Comfortable, durable, and reliable workwear is important to us as we spend so much time in it. Today there are so many great choices on the market that provide both comfort and safety.
We recently tested out several items from Timberland PRO including a jacket, pants, and new boots. Click below to learn all about these new products and what we think of them!
Here in New England most of us have chimneys that either penetrate the roof or intersect the roof line. Besides the obvious need for proper flashing around the chimney and roofing/siding materials, there's another important detail needed to help shed water around it. A roof cricket is a small "roof" section that helps pitch the water to either side of a chimney and keep it from ponding up behind
it.
In this article we show you how to properly build a roof cricket from start to finish.
Attic insulation is extremely important in both cold and warm climates. Here in our cold climate there's been a change of sorts in recent years on whether or not a vapor barrier is a good idea. Recently we've been insulating the attic with blown in cellulose insulation without a vapor barrier.
Starting December 1st, and posting everyday until the 12th, we will be posting a new Tools-On-Tap video. Each video will highlight one tool in the ACC Gift Guide.
The TOT videos feature
members of the TBB Crew talking about tools over a beer. Its informative, entertaining and hilarious.
