<强>安装的太阳能电池板正在变得更加可行各种财务激励变得可用。杰夫·威尔逊breaks it down into hard numbers to give an idea of what’s really involved with "going solar." When my family decided to streamline our energy use at home, we first tackled our efficiency problems with a Deep Energy Retrofit. This effort included air-sealing and insulating the building envelope and replacing all of the windows and doors. Once we had our house sealed up tight, we added an Energy Recovery Ventilator to keep indoor air fresh while keeping the energy we use to heat and cool that air inside the house, where it belongs. Only after we completely exhausted energy efficiency measures did we decide to have a 4-kW photovoltaic solar array installed. 后院炉不仅烘烤好的面包，它创造的氛围，并为您的户外娱乐区的焦点。 有时候，你开始DIY项目足以抵御任何真正的解释。它通常开始时很小 - 例如，我爱真的好面包。不软，面团，白面包，你在超市买，但脾气暴躁，痛苦AU levain一个真正的法式面包店会产生。由于很少有面包店做对了，我钻进了烤面包。够简单。 <强>中找到的对象可以是升级回收到家具，建筑材料， 和更多。杰夫·威尔逊’s home (and perpetual remodeling project) showcases some of his best finds.

There's nothing like escaping the Midwest and going to Florida in the middle of winter. That’s what I got to do recently in Orlando at the National Association of Homebuilders’ International Builders’ Show 2012. While I attended as a host and presenter for LP Building Products, I also got a chance to check out the booths and exhibits.

Oh, and don’t forget to set those phasers to stun.

Generally speaking, I’m not much of a shopper. Like a lot of guys, I like to dodge into a store, make a quick purchase, and then skedaddle. Things change a little when I head to my local home center or hardware store. More than once I’ve come home from what was supposed to be a short jaunt to pick up some lumber to hear my wife ask, “What took you so long?” OK, maybe I was perusing the new LED lighting or trying out a new multi-tool. I was definitely NOT shopping.
I always loved shows like Roy Underhill’s The Woodwright’s Shop – by watching I can experience, vicariously, detailed woodworking without power tools. Folks like Roy are truly artisans, and I have tremendous respect for that kind of work.

When is it time to refinish your wood deck? Sometimes it’s hard to tell. Use the “splash test” to see if your wood deck needs attention. Take a glass of water and splash it on the most heavily traveled areas. If the water beads up and sits on top of the wood, then refinishing is not required. If the water soaks in and darkens the wood, then it’s time to get on that deck maintenance before any serious damage is done. Join our host, Jeff Wilson, as he demonstrates how to refinish a wood deck.
