Grout Cleaning - Useful Tools and Safety Precautions

One of the most essential things to take into consideration when you set out to clean grout is the necessary safety equipment required and the extra precautions that need to be taken to protect yourself and your skin from dangerous burns. One of the most essential safety tools required for grout cleaning is a good pair of protective gloves, made from either latex or nitrile. Since many grout cleaning products are comprised of caustic chemicals, safety gloves protect your hands and forearms from burns and abrasions.

In addition, when it is time to clean your grout, you will also need protective eyewear, such as safety glasses or goggles. Since grout cleaning sometimes requires the use of a lot of force, it is easy for accidental splashes to cause a lot of damage, and wearing safety glasses helps reduce the level of chemical exposure to your eyes. Another important aspect to keep in mind when cleaning grout is the level of ventilation in your designated work area. A non-woven protective mask can also prevent you from breathing in deadly chemical fumes, which can rapidly overcome an individual's respiratory system if the appropriate precautions are not taken. Often, the symptoms related to over-exposure to chemicals can be difficult to notice until the individual is on the verge of collapse. Having another person nearby in case of an emergency is also helpful in this respect. Not only can an extra person help to ensure that you are safe, but they may also be able to provide an extra hand when needed.

Safety equipment for grout cleaning can easily be found at any local hardware store, and also larger home improvement retailers like Home Depot or Lowe's. You can also find a number of other necessary cleaning tools at these locations as well. In addition to your safety gear, you will also need a good cleaning brush. There are three things to keep in mind when selecting a grout cleaning brush that is right for the job. The first thing to consider is the type of bristle that you will be using. Soft bristled brushes such as toothbrushes do not work well for grout cleaning because they are not able to get deep down into the grout and also tend to fall apart when using force to scrub at hard to reach areas.

While it is important to select a harder bristled brush for grout cleaning, a metal bristled brush can be too abrasive for grout surfaces, and can even cause damage in the long run. A plastic or polyethylene bristled brush works better for grout cleaning purposes. The bristles of your grout cleaning brush should be fairly firm and stiff. The next thing to keep in mind when selecting your grout cleaning brush is the overall size and shape of the brush and how well the brush conforms to your hand. While a larger brush can be alluring, particularly if your thought process is that you can clean a larger surface in a shorter period of time. However, the reality is that most grout lines are extremely thin, and scrubbing them with a larger brush diminishes the amount of force that I put into cleaning one of these areas, and does not perform as well as smaller, more suitable brushes.

Jet Power Tools are Simply the Best

If you want to set up a woodworking shop quickly and easily, just find a distributor of Jet power tools. These top quality woodworking and metalworking tools are found at over 9,000 dealers around the world.

The unique feature of Jet tools is that they are not manufactured in only one place, but in different parts of the world, depending on what specialties the engineers in that part of the world are experts in. They use the best technology available and combine it with materials from specific regions that supply the best of that material.

Jet power tools are noted for their extensive selection of accessories for each tool. Their power saws have the Cyclone Dust Collector and the Parallel clamps, each of which make working with the power saw cleaner, easier and more efficient.
Jet backs all of their power tools with warranties and the many authorized Jet distributors will stand behind these warranties. You can have your Jet power tools maintained or serviced at any of the Jet service centers, which are located all around the world. There is never a problem with spare parts; replacement parts and spare parts are carried by all of these service centers and there is a $3million inventory of parts at any one time.

Jet is the proud recipient of many awards that are granted by the power tool industry. These awards are not lightly bestowed: contenders are compared on every quality and category and price range among all the brands around the world. Magazines that specialize in material for the woodworker, either professional or hobbyist, consistently rate Jet tools as the best brand in the market.

Knowing you have the best quality on the market is assuring, but the variety of tools that Jet offers also makes any job easy for the woodworker. The Jet lathe, the Jet table saw and the Jet Long Bed Jointer are the most popular power tools of the line, and the easiest and most convenient to use.

A specialized item that may interest a woodworker is the portable horizontal band saw. A small saw for big jobs, its light weight and portability make it perfect for bringing to a job site. Adjusting the blades to 45 or 60 degree angles makes it perfect for miter cuts. It has a bi-metal blade that makes it extremely durable and thus able to handle jobs that usually would require a bigger saw.

You can turn your horizontal band saw into a multi-use table saw by using the option floor stand.

Jet wants you to be able to get the most use and enjoyment out of their power tools, so each one of them has a training video in their training series called "Shopclass Series". Your Jet distributor can provide you with the list of titles of these videos to help yo with just about any job.

Skylink ML-100 AAA+ Wall Mountable Home Smart Center with Rechargeable Battery Review




Available at Amazon Check Price Now!


Skylink ML-100 (Dialling Capability)With a little extra help from the factory we had the system up and running in no time. We love it, because we don't have to have a third party involved for this system to work. We did have one bad door sensor that we had to do a little extra work on to get replaced. Other than that it works great. The only down side is that it doesn't immediately set off an alarm when there's an intruder unless that setting is always on alarm. It dials telephone numbers when the system is armed and that makes the system better so you can be notified when you are away for extended periods.

  • 5 programmable and supervised zones

Custom LeatherCraft 1526 23 Pocket Electrical and Maintenance Tool Pouch

Custom LeatherCraft 1526 23 Pocket Electrical and Maintenance Tool Pouch Review




Available at Amazon Check Price Now!


I will be using this bag for toting around stuff I use in finding old surveyors' marks.

The bag is roomy. The center portion is divided in thirds. The two side portions are further subdivided into flexible "pockets," while the center part is open. The center part is 6.5" deep (sitting on top of the lower compartment which can house the plastic odds-and-ends case; that compartment is an additional 2.5" deep). The open center compartment holds my camera and a large pair of gloves.

I uploaded a couple of photos of my bag packed full. Those orange stakes stuck into it are 11" tall. I don't carry "normal" tools (pliers, small screwdrivers, wrenches, etc.), but it does a fine job of holding my tape measures, my laser measurement tool, my GPS, clippers, etc. I also like the zippered pocket that covers one side--good for holding my notebook and datasheets.

I also tried out their Model 1509 tool bag, which is much more shallow (almost like a bike messenger's bag). The 1509 zips closed and would be better at carrying papers, but lacks the ability to carry larger items (for example, a good sized power tool).

The handle is very sturdy, and the shoulder strap (fully extended) can be slung over my neck and shoulder for "hands-free" transit. The big d-rings at the handle can serve as attach points for things with cords or straps.



Custom LeatherCraft 1526 23 Pocket Electrical and Maintenance Tool Pouch Feature


  • Tool pouch with 23 pockets for electrical or maintenance accessories
  • Pockets for drill bits and tips, testers, pliers, screwdrivers and more; box-shaped design prevents tipping
  • Extra padded carrying handle and adjustable shoulder strap; metal tool snap and electrical tape strap
  • Includes a 7-by-5-1/2-inch multi-compartment plastic tray that slides securely into bottom of pouch
  • 9 by 8 by 10 inches; weighs 2.8 pounds



Custom LeatherCraft 1526 23 Pocket Electrical and Maintenance Tool Pouch Overview


The 28-pocket electrical and maintenance tool pouch from Custom LeatherCraft is a boxed shape tool carrier that's built to last from rugged polyester fabric. The 7 by 5-1/2-inch multi-compartment plastic tray slides securely into the bottom of the pouch to help organize a wide range of accessories, and the padded handle and adjustable shoulder strap add additional comfort when carrying. The 1526 is like owning a workshop to go.

Zibra ETQEWT Edge-n-Roll No Tape Tool Kit System

Zibra ETQEWT Edge-n-Roll No Tape Tool Kit System Review




Available at Amazon Check Price Now!


I bought this at the hardware store with the orange sign because the one with the blue sign didn't carry it. I thought it was another cheap, unusable tool before I used it. I even felt guilty falling for their little trap (on the package it said it's designed for women). The promise of using no tape, once again, got me to buy this little gadget...even though I've purchased at least 10 different products for the same purpose, to no avail. I'm not pro-tape. My hand isn't steady enough to paint ceiling edges even with the best Purdy brushes.
The roller I bought at the depot was the same as it is here on Amazon, but it didn't have a nifty little tray thing, just a cheap throwaway paint tray which worked great.
I used this to paint the top of my walls, edging the ceilings. I was going from a bright teal to a muted mocha color, and it took 2 coats to cover it up.
The way this product works: there is a button on the top that you push in order to cause the sides of the paint roller to extend past the roller itself. You fit the roller into the loaded paint tray, making sure the edges hang over the sides while you load the paint roller. This process ensures no paint gets on the sides, thus marring your ceiling or corner with unwanted paint. Then you snap the sides back into place, and start roll'n. Note: there is a metal (as shown in the picture) and a plastic side (not shown) to the paint roller. The metal side works best for getting the paint closest to the edge you are painting.
A neat little trick is a lever underneath the paint rollers shaft. When pushed you can pivot the paint roller while using it, allowing for a further reach while standing on a fixed surface like a stool, chair, or pile of laundry.
The paint rollers themselves pick up just the right amount of paint, so none squirms out and underneath the edges like with all the other edging tools I have bought.
My only complaints are: the construction is cheap and rickety. It almost felt like it would fall apart in my hands at times, though it did not. Also, it is nearly impossible to clean these little rollers, and it is best to just buy new ones.
The tip is closed off, so you can't screw a paint pole in there. Darn.

But I give it five starts because:
This little tool saved me so much time and hassle, and ended the procrastination I was living in at the thought of having to tape all my ceilings. It deserves a long, detailed review and I will buy refills and use it again and again, because I love repainting (I guess).

Tolman Tool HUB-CB Rebar Hub Cutter-Bender Review




Available at Amazon Check Price Now!


I was kind of undecided looking at this cutter-bender because of one review that said it was nearly impossible to cut #5 rebar. I decided to buy it anyways because of the very low price compared to most cutter-benders, and the idea that it is made in the U.S.A, which is very important to me. I am doing an ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) foundation for a basement with #4 and #5 rebar, and the day I got it, I cut #5, it takes a little strength, but once it gets to a certain point, it just pops back, and makes a very clean cut, and a crisp bend. It cuts #4 with ease! A very good cutter-bender, especially for the price. I would definitely recommend, and would buy again.



Tolman Tool HUB-CB Rebar Hub Cutter-Bender Feature


  • Can cut and bend 3/4-inch rebar
  • Up to 60 grade rebar
  • Double ended cutter bushings
  • The cutter-bushings are less expensive and have longer tool-life

Tips For Finding Reputable Snowblower Repair Shops

Finding a snowblower repair shop can be a task in itself. Depending on where you live there may not be a lot of choices available. You want to be able to find someone that you trust, as well as one you can afford. A lot of places will try to sway you to do certain things to your machine, replace your existing machine, or will refuse work because it is a certain style.

Check your local yellow pages to find snowblower repair shops. A lot of places which sell snowblowers offer repairs. But, they may only work on the blowers that they sell. Call around before you shop. There is nothing worse than arriving at a shop to be told that they refuse to work on your machine for whatever the reason may be.

When calling around to other places, make sure you are specific on what your needs are. Make sure you have the style and or model number available to give to them over the phone so they know what they are dealing with. Let them know the exact problem you are having, as well as any other information that may be of help to them.

If they cannot work on your snowblower, ask if they have any references available to give to you. They may not work on a certain brand of machines, but they may know somebody else that can help you. A good repair shop will know their competition and comparable shops that you may be able to get a hold of.

Do not let them pitch sales to you. If you have called them ahead of time and explained the problem to you, they should not try and sell you a new machine. Let them know that you are not in the market for a new snowblower, and that you are happy with the one you have. If all else fails, take your business elsewhere.

Before you arrive to have your snowblower fixed, be sure to ask them how long it will take and if they can order parts for your machine. Some repair shops will tell you they cannot get the part in hopes that you will just buy another machine instead of taking yours elsewhere. If they are unsure if they can get the parts, try another place.

There are a lot of snowblower repair shops that will try to sell you a replacement machine instead of fixing your existing one. Do not let them push you over. Know what kind of problem your snowblower is having, and let them know what you want done. This will avoid any problems you may have once you actually bring the machine in for repair.

Kitchen Cooking Tools and Alternative Methods

Every home needs some kitchen cooking tools. There are a lot of cooking utensils sold in the market today which sometimes confuse the customers on what really to buy. As part of our culture, cooking is very important to us. It doesn't matter if we spend too much money on our kitchen tools and even with our food preparation for as long as we can prepare healthy dishes for our family. To be able to serve the family with a perfect dish, every kitchen should be equipped with the basic cooking tools such as the oven, the stove, a refrigerator and also a microwave-if possible.

Alternative cooking methods are the best way for those families who can't afford to buy kitchen cooking tools. These methods are non-traditional but still can help families prepare healthy dishes for their families. These methods include solar cooking, fireplace or fire-pit cooking. These alternative cooking methods should be used with great caution especially for first timers. There are a lot of cooking methods that are being used today in order to save money and the most common of all is by using clay pots which is much more economical than using gas ranges and are more widely used by families.

A healthy living starts in our own kitchen. In order to serve a healthy meal by means of proper food preparations and storage should always be deemed important. In preparing a healthy meal, every kitchen cooking tool should be properly cleaned before it is used for cooking for there are a lot of diseases today that are caused by contaminated food due to unsanitary ways of cooking.

These diseases can be prevented simply by just cleaning the utensils and the raw materials for cooking before serving to your family when cooked. Sometimes families in the urban areas don't have refrigerators for storage of leftovers and they just cover their food on their tables or even leave it uncovered and on the latter gets spoiled.

Food that easily gets spoiled should be kept safe in proper containers with proper coverings for it not to get spoiled. If refrigerators are present, it is advisable to store the food in it. There are times that because we want to save money, we tend to eat food that are on the verge of getting spoiled which is a big no-no. Instead of saving money, you'll end up spending more on hospitalization due to food contamination and other related diseases and if there are no refrigerators available, cooking enough food for the family is much more advisable in order to avoid leftovers.

Guide to Choosing Hand Tools For Home Improvement

All home improvement jobs require tools in order to complete the job satisfactorily. Tools are the most important parts of the job and will determine whether or not your job is a success. Tools are also the things which cause the most confusion to people wanting to do any DIY.

As with everything you do, the most important think should be the safety. When you are doing home improvement projects you should wear goggles, ear defenders and masks to protect yourself.

If you are remodelling and repairing walls and floors then you will only need a few basic tools. If you are working on walls located in the basement then you will need brushes with stiff bristles, wire brush, and paintbrushes. You will also need to purchase materials including masonry sealers, large containers, sponges and household cleaners.

If you are doing a project on the outside of your home such as repairing the grades around the foundation then you will need several tools such as a grading rake, hand tamp, wheel barrow, rake, hand temp and line leveller.

If you are working on interior projects such as your ceilings then you will need some tools such as drills, hammers, screwdrivers, scrapers, paintbrushes, glue gun, awl, pliers, utility knifes, rollers, tile pliers, stud finder, syringe and wallboard knives.

In order to repair damage to plaster you will need to use a paint brush and a wallboard knife. You will need many more materials than tools for these types of project.

To repair walls which are made out of panels then you will need chisels, hammers, wallboard knifes, caulk gun, framing square, putty knife, carpentry knife, nails, rubber mallet and pry bar.

Replacing ceramic tiles is slightly more difficult, for this you will need a tile cutter, a pair of nippers, utility knife, compass, hammer, awl, wood tile and a grout float.

If you have wallpapered walls and have noticed that it's starting to show signs of wear then you will need utility knife, sponge, edge roller, and a syringe. Wallpaper is quite difficult, but you need to spend quite a long time doing it.

If you want to renovate your ceiling then you might only need a drill. Hammer and wallboard knife. If you want to patch the ceiling then you will need additional tools such as chisels, a utility knife and a framing square.

Repainting cabinets is fairly easy, you need a paint roller, screwdriver, paint, brushes, pad sander, and a putty knife.

Hopefully by now you have a general understanding of the tools which are needed to complete certain tasks around the home. Many of the tools required for the different projects are the same. This means that you can build up your tool collection quite quickly.

It's possible to rent some of the tools required for home improvement, this means that you can return it once you have finished with it. If renting the tools then it's a good idea to only hire them when you need them and then return them as soon as possible.

Many different brands of tools are available, it's a good idea to check out letherman tools, and stanley tools.

Rolling Aerators Are Fast Aeration Methods That Keep Your Lawn Looking Great

Periodically aerating with a rolling aerator is a key part of maintaining a healthy, beautiful-looking lawn. When it is not properly aerated, it can turn brown, need lots of water and be more prone to disease, insect damage and out-of-control weeds. Aeration breathes new life into your lawn.

In all lawns, the first 2-3 inches of soil compacts over time, especially in heavily-used areas. The dirt at playgrounds and parks frequented by children and pets compresses even more and faster. Compacted dirt and dense root systems make it difficult for new roots to grow and for the existing ones to get the water and nutrients they need. Both the dirt and the roots need to be broken up, so new roots can easily grow through the ground and get to the nutrients, oxygen and water needed to keep the grass lush, green and healthy. Rolling aerators with hollow tines, penetrate into the ground, pulling out dirt cores that are then left on the surface to break up and return to the soil. The resulting holes allow better movement of water, air and nutrients to the roots. Where roots have been broken, new roots will grow deeper with the increased space available from the holes and have an easier time out-competing weeds. These holes also do a better job keeping water which means that regularly aerated lawns need less water to stay healthy and green. Rolling aerators can do more for the health of your lawn than spike aerators, which do not pull out dirt plugs and leave holes that usually close up after the first watering.

Lawns that are properly cared for are more tolerant of excessive heat, less susceptible to problems of high traffic, more able to withstand drought, and more disease-resistant as well as costing less to maintain. For the first five years, use a rolling aerator on your lawn annually. After that every other year or even every three years may be okay if the lawn is not heavily used and seems to be in good condition. In general, aerate around April or September, when the ground is neither too soft nor too hard. Watering for an hour the night before can improve the soil conditions so the aerator pulls out good plugs and leaves better holes. After aerating, water, fertilize and over-seed to get the best results and to further improve your lawn's health and appearance.

Comparing Plug Aerators and Spike Aerators

There are two major types of lawn aerators: core or plug aerators and spike aerators. There are advantages and disadvantages to each kind. Which one is best for you depends entirely upon what matters to you.

Ease to Use and Maintain. Spike aerators are all simple devices with spikes designed to go into the ground. Whether you are slipping on some spiked shoes, pushing a spiked hand aerator into the ground, or attaching one to the back of your tractor or riding lawn mower, spiked aerators are simple to use. They can require some physical exertion and may be tiring to use for long periods of time. However, some aerators are heavy machines that must be lifted and turned to go back around the lawn or in corners. Plug aerators that are self-propelled machines with power-lift or are towed along are not hard to use, but do have more maintenance needs with more parts that must be cared for and fixed or replaced.

Price. The cost of each varies widely, but spike aerators are generally significantly cheaper, priced from $10 to around $500, while plug aerators typically cost a few hundred to several thousands of dollars. If you only need it infrequently, renting a plug aerator instead of buying one can be cheaper. The lower price is the greatest advantage of spike over the other types of aerators.

Performance. While spiked rolling drums and spike towing aerators can do a pretty decent job, other aerators do a better job breaking up compacted soil and roots. The small holes made by spiked aerators close quickly, often with the first watering, so the roots enjoy the benefits for a shorter period of time and aeration needs to be done more frequently. In problems areas such as heavily-compacted or clay soils, spiked aerators may not be able to get into the ground deep enough to make a significant difference. Instead of solid spikes, plug aerators have hollow tines that penetrate deep into the ground and pull out a dirt core, leaving the plug on the surface where it slowing breaks up. The tines break-up compacted soil and dense roots, leaving new root growth with better access to water, air and the nutrients. Deeper, healthier roots mean a greener, healthier lawn that can handle drought and heat better as well as being more disease and weed-resistant.

Consider your lawns' needs, the amount you would like to spend and the time and effort you want to put into aerating, and then choose the aerator that is best for you.

This tool bag rocks. The plastic parts container is large (very helpful for a home theater installer) I put ALOT of crap in my toolbags and this one is holding up better than a larger husky bag ( handle tore )and a smaller maguire nichols (three pockets got holes in them) and the center container is very large and holds alot. I can even keep an 18volt hammerdrill in this bag full time. Special care must be taken as the lid on that center container does not stay flush , so it doesn't seal all the little compartments very well. Storing it clasp down helps to keep stuff from mingling within compartments. I plan to glue a thin peice of foam to the inside of the lid to solve this completely. Needs 4-6 more pockets (it's smaller brother has 9 more pockets) and the tall skinny pockets that are just right for pencils and a specialized bit or two are on the wrong side of the bag. ( a very small quibble ) These things kept me from giving this bag 5 stars. But the first few points make this the best toolbag I've ever used.( I've had about 5 different bags and I am very hard on them.

Available at Amazon Check Price Now!


I give 4 out of 5 only because it is not made with Paul Bos heat treated S30V steel. However considering the price difference between the CRKT and the actual Graham Bros. razel this is a bargain. I have owned my CRKT ringed razel for about a month and have used it for varied reasons from prying staples off a barbed wire fence post to slicing through a block of smoked cheddar. I work in heavy construction, (bulldozers, etc.), and I will find many uses for this knife over the years. There are other reviews where some people bitch about the finish of the handle and the kydex sheath. If you are using this as an every day tool instead of staring, and petting it like an attention depraved psycho, then you won't care about the finish. The kydex sheath works like it should but I will eventualy get a leather one. All in all, it's a handy knife. Recomended.

Using Tarps Around the Home - Storage and Home Improvement

When you think about tarps, do you think of all the uses they have around your home? Most associate tarps with some kind of industrial use, although there are plenty uses for them around the home. In the case you have a few home improvement projects, a tarp is useful for a temporary roof patch and also for painting projects. Aside from home improvement work, tarps are useful for storage, as long as they're held in place properly. Because most polyethylene tarps are waterproof and UV resistant, they can protect an object - or the interior of a home - from water and sun damage.

In terms of home improvement, medium-duty poly tarps are often kept around the home for roof repairs. This is common in areas that experience hurricanes and tornadoes, as the storms will often cause roof damage in the path. In such instances, a tarp is applied to the damaged portion of the roof and held in place by two-by-four boards and nails. Some manufacturers, additionally, have realized a need for this and have created tarps that will stick to a roof. Once applied, the tarp will keep out any moisture from damaging the interior of the house or building any further.

Painting is another common home improvement project involving tarps. Although any type of tarp can be used as a drop cloth, canvas tarps are preferred. Canvas material won't cause the painter to slip and, when draped over furniture and the floor, the material will stay in place better. If you don't have canvas around the home, an old polyethylene tarp often stays in use as a drop cloth. No matter the material used, the tarp keeps any paint from reaching and damaging your furniture and floors.

Aside from home improvement, tarps are always useful for storage purposes. Whether you have a car that needs covering or a seasonal vehicle needing protection, a heavy-duty poly tarp can surround the vehicle and shield it from UV exposure and water damage. Often, a large tarp is draped over the vehicle until it's fully covered and then secured in place by bungee cords. In the case of seasonal vehicles, certain tarps for boats and RVs are custom made to fit their specific designs.

No matter your storage or home improvement needs, having a few tarps on hand for emergencies is always a good idea. Keep a few medium or heavy-duty polyethylene tarps around the home in case of roof damage or additional storage needs.

Home Carpet Cleaning Tips

When it comes to carpet cleaning, not everybody likes doing it, while others don't have a problem with it at all. For those who do not like doing it, they will go to the extreme of trying to hide the stain but this will depend on where the stain is and it's normally in a place you can't hide.

The task of cleaning a carpet is not easy, and that is why some people opt for the option of getting a carpet cleaning service to do it for them. They can either come do it for you, or you can take the carpet to them but only if the carpet is portable enough and you have the knowledge to put it back.

The option an individual will use will depend on whether it is affordable to them, but for some, they enjoy doing the carpet cleaning themselves. They can either do this manually or by getting the necessary materials to clean out the carpet like a vacuum cleaner. This would be more affordable than hiring the service.

The best time to clean the carpet when your doing it yourself is when it is sunny outside because it will give a chance for the carpet to dry out, doing it on a cold day would mean that it will not get the chance to dry. Try and not go to the extent of hiding carpet stains by throwing on it a rug that does not even blend in with the theme of your house, the advice you will find in the sources provided will be of ample help.

The Right Tools For Exterior Home Painting

You've decided to paint the exterior of your home: now the adventure begins. A good way to start this adventure is by choosing the right painting tools. A simple paint brush is just one of the many tools available for giving your home a bright new look. Choosing the right tool will make for an easy rewarding painting experience.

A standard paint brush is a great tool for exterior home painting, as it works on many surfaces and wastes less paint than other painting devices. A paint brush either has natural thistles, best for oil-based and alkyd paints, and synthetic bristles, which you would use with oil or latex paints. However, if you have a particularly large area to cover, a roller may be what you need. Its size will definitely save you time and energy.

Pads are another great tool for exterior home painting. Though they don't retain as much paint as a brush or a roller, they're excellent for reaching tight spots. They can also be disposable, which makes cleanup easier. Power painters are a high tech solution to painting a large area. These powerful machines are able to apply any type of painting tool or use the spray function. The airless variety works best for do-it-yourself projects, while professionals typically opt for the compressed air units.

Every painter is different, and every home is different. To make sure that your exterior home painting experience, put some serious thought into what type of applicators you want to use.

Power Tools - Tips to Buy, Rent Or Borrow

Are you sick and tired of looking at that wall? Have you dreamed of just ripping it out and making the master bath bigger? Or maybe, you're just ready to add that deck to the back of your house. Your friends are already on board for a weekend of free food and drink in exchange for a little manual labor. Whatever the home improvement task, it will go much faster and easier if you use power tools.

Here are some basics to buy, rent or borrow for any remodeling project, big or small:

- Sanders- The orbital Sander is a hand-held machine that makes short the work of sanding down rough edges. It is great for putting the finishing touches on a project. For more heavy duty work on wood or metal, a belt Sander is probably your best bet. Using Sanders saves you time as well as energy (it is hard work sanding by hand!). For safety purposes, if you don't have a dust bag attached to the machine, make sure to wear a dust mask.

- Saws- There are various saws to choose from, but the job really dictates what is best. First, you have a reciprocating saw. This one looks like a giant electric turkey carver. It's good for jobs like cutting out windows and doing small detailed cutting. Next is the circular saw. This one is hand-held and is good for making quick short cuts that don't have to be perfect, like shortening a 2x4. It's also good for making weird angled cuts on big boards that would be too awkward to hold up to a table saw. Which brings us to the table saw. This is great for running a big board through and making a straight cut. If the board is really long, you will need another person to help. Finally, there is the Miter saw. This is a great tool for making angled cuts that have to be perfect. For instance, cutting crown molding has to be just right for the pieces to fit together in the corners. The last two saws are a bit more expensive and may fall into the rent or borrow category, unless you plan to do a lot of projects.

- Power Drills- There are a lot of different types of electric drills and the one you use depends on the type of job. For most of the work you will probably be doing, a regular cordless drill should have enough power. You can use it to drill through wood, metal and plastic. You may need different types of bits depending on the material you are drilling. Once you have the hole drilled, you can use a screwdriver attachment to finish the job using the drill. An electric drill is a very versatile tool and should be in anyone's collection of power tools.

Just remember to always operate the power tools as recommended in the manual and when you are finished, clean up. A properly maintained machine will last a long time and you want to take care of your investment. Also, make sure you follow the safety guidelines and use some common sense when operating these machines. One false move and you could end up in the back of an ambulance hoping they can reattach your finger! Seriously though, be safe and work smart. That is the best way to get the most out of your power tools and make your home improvement project a success.

Tips in Choosing the Right Home Power Generator

Usually, when one sets out to look for a home power generator, he ends up confused and perplexed. There are just too many home power generators nowadays that come in various shapes, sizes, models and prices coming from different manufacturers and retailers. More often than not, instead of going home with a home power generator, one ends up going home with nothing other than more confusion.

To prevent this from happening to you, make sure you cover all the tips discussed in this article.

What is the first thing that I should consider?

Since the main purpose of a home power generator is to supply electricity, the first thing you should ask yourself is the amount of electricity you usually need at home. Generally, medium-sized homes between 1000-3000 square feet will need a generator that can supply 3000-5000 watts. This will be used for emergency home power backup.

But of course, no matter how big or small your home is, it depends on how many electrical devices you have at home. To get a more definite figure on your energy consumption, you can try adding the total number and type of electrical devices that will require electricity at the same time. Typically, watt ratings are printed on the device itself so you won't have a hard time figuring it out. Afterwards, you can sum up the wattage requirements for these devices to get the overall wattage you'll require from your generator.

Other than wattage capacity, here are some more features you must consider when looking for a home power generator.

Sound

How noisy is the unit? Of course, since you will be using the electric generator at home, you do not want it to be loud and noisy. As much as possible, you would want it to function with minimal, if not zero noise so you can enjoy the comforts of your home without getting disturbed by your generator.

Fuel Supply

You will have to determine what type of fuel you're generator will be running on. There are many types of fuel available today. You can either use diesel, gas, propane or natural gas. You might also want to check out the size of the tank so you can gauge how many hours of operating time it can give you.

Portability

You might want to rearrange the furniture in your house or do some serious renovation. For this reason, you can choose a home power generator that comes with wheels, or a transport trailer if in the first place, it isn't light enough to carry by hand.

Weather Protection

If you plan to position your home power generator near your windows, consider getting one with a protected control panel. The control panel of your generator must be protected from rain, dust, and other debris.

Outlets

In order to ensure the safety of your home, ask yourself if you have enough outlets available to handle everything you need. Make sure that they are protected by a circuit breaker to prevent fire accidents from happening.

As a whole, buying a home power generator is not as puzzling as you think it is if you only know what to look for in one.
