A little more on the heavy-duty side, but a Japanese-style pull saw is the greatest demo and remodeling tool around. I never would have thought to buy one but for a tip from another customer at Ho...
The worst mess in my home was made by my dog, who was roughhousing with another dog and proceeded to get a cut on his paw. He ran all about the apartment leaving bloodstains everywhere. Oh yeah, ...
When I built my back deck I worked in a hidden compartment off to the side with the faucet installed below deck level. I used one of those "coiled" hoses that I can just toss into the compartment ...
From back in my futon days, I ran a length of nylon rope across the "fold" and then tied it into the frame. Eventually the mattress developed a crease and I removed it.
I did a similar project, but went with the Besta model because the tops are finished. Also, they have a slightly beefier cross-section if you want to leave parts exposed:
Actually, avoid HD's voltage testers, they are complete shite. I returned a brand new one only to have the kid at the returns counter tell me it was one of their most common returns. I got one at...
This seems like a cool idea but I can't help but think that I could rig that up out of scrap wood for a fraction of the cost. Especially if its in an attic space where Aesthetics aren't an issue.
Plybar definitely. The bigger the better.
Also if you were looking to drop some coin, a good quality 1/2" cordless drill. I spent a couple hundred on a DeWalt a couple years ago an...
While remodeling our kitchen I discovered a letter from school telling the owners that their son was missing school days. I guess he chose to hide it behind the cabinets rather than let them see it!
Did a full IKEA kitchen last summer. It really is pretty idiot-proof. The only thing that takes time is lining up cabinet doors properly. With the Blum hinges they use, you have a wide range of ...

I wouldn't be so apologetic about buying this desk. Who cares if it came from Walmart? If the design is right that's what matters.

To this day I can't walk by a Pottery Barn without saying "Phoebe hates Pottery Barn!"

I'd also point out that you'll want to step up to a half-inch model no matter what. Having access to half-inch bits gives you a lot more usability.

If I owned that I would hang tiny chainsaws and clubs in there and call it Thunderdome.
I like the idea of putting the Lounge somewhere in between the 2 areas. That way you can just pivot it to face whichever of the 2 is currently in use.

YES! Finally! On our last visit to Chicago my wife and I walked for an hour just to get to the CB2 store (it was a nice day).
