  1. Ha you think movers care? They are the same college kids working at 2 men and a truck during the day. But at least you would be able to hold them liable.

     

    bolded for the thread homerun

  2. Stand outside of lowes or another improvemnt store and ask a few guys to help with a dolly. You will be surprised what people will do for some beer

     

    You'll be surprised how they care so little about your walls and drop a safe on themselves.

     

    Hire a mover ...

  3. Most of my cowokers last year "LOL YOU BOUGHT A NOTE 2. YOU HAVE A PHABLET. THAT IS TOO LARGE TO FIT IN MY HANDS/POCKETS. YOU SUCK."

     

    Most of my coworkers this week "Man I will have to pick up the iphone 6 plus. I bet that will feel nice in my hands."

     

    You apple guys have fun with your larger phone. I bet it will be just like Oct 2011 all over again.

  4. I was working in my first job and had a small office at the end of a long second floor hallway.

     

    Someone came in and said that "someone crashed a plane into a building and its on TV upstairs"

     

    Went into the board room and 20+ people were in there with a few crying at the first tower being hit; this is South Bend Indiana btw ...

     

    Management said that anyone too upset could go home for the day; in a consumer sales office I think they realized no one would really be ordering furniture today.

     

    Spoke with my parents later in the 'hey did you see that' conversation ... pretty much agree'd someone fucked up and here comes a war ...

  5. http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/worldviews/wp/2014/09/04/where-are-the-gates-of-hell/

     

    U.S. Vice President Biden said Wednesday that his country would follow the jihadists of the Islamic State "to the gates of hell until they are brought to justice." Biden was speaking following reports of the beheading of a second American journalist who had been in captivity with the Islamic State.

     

    "They somehow think that it’s going to lessen U.S. resolve, frighten us, intimidate us. But, if they think the American people will be intimidated, they don’t know us very well," Biden said. When making his "gates of hell" comment, Biden added, perhaps for clarity, that the Islamic State will be followed there "because hell is where they will reside. Hell is where they will reside."

  6. Looking for another place to order Oakley prescription sunglasses.

     

    I use Pickerington eye care for exams, and they ordered my glasses over a month ago. First pair was scratched, second pair was scratched and the lens was not seated right, and third pair finally came in and also scratched / lens sticking out.

     

    If I have my prescription numbers, can I order from somewhere else or would I have to get a exam there?

     

     

    Or has anyone had luck buying from a certain place?

     

    Oakley store in Polaris mall. They have a doctor and prescription specialist there.

  7. I start this thread knowing fully that I'm going to get flamed, but it's too bad to hear about Joan Rivers' situation. I've always been a big fan of hers, and a recent interview with Howard Stern reminded me of how much we need celebrities who call it as they see it.

     

    My grandmother died a couple of years ago after slipping into a coma, so I'm drawing parallels though hoping for the best with Joan. BTW, this is all Obama's fault.

     

    If you need me, I'll be holding a candlelight vigil outside of the Funny Bone. Better there than in my own basement. #livestrongjoanrivers

     

    She is an 81 year old woman getting her hustle on

     

    Good for her ... you and I are in the same boat ... but not with a candle ... just taking 20 second to post this ...

  8. good info, thanks.

     

     

     

    I always figured that, but wasn't sure where else to go.

     

    how much to hire you. ;)

     

    I wouldn't do it ever again :)

     

    After doing all this I understand people who quoted $2K+ and 10 year warranty. Its honestly worth that if they do all this prep.

     

    I had fun on the project though and really do enjoy the floor.

     

    Get your floor right and go put in a baller lift ....

    Maybe not baller ...but a lift non-the-less ...

  9. At the top of the photo and the base of the wall, see the black/dark marks?

     

    That's the stuff the floor grinder would not remove and I had to zip it off by hand with the angle grinder.

     

    Compare that to an above photo which I think was just power/chemical washing.

     

    I would never do this job without grinding the floor first. Its such as pain to redo later I want it to last long as possible. I was amazed how the floor looked after the grinding and what it was able to remove ... looked like a smooth pool deck really ...

  10. 1) Go to Sunbelt Rental and get the single disc floor grunder (use truck, its heavy)

    2) Grind your floor for an afternoon so its flat and smooth like a pool deck

    3) Get a dewalt diamond grinder bit from lowes; its yellow, 6inch diameter and expensive (can sell you mine if you want)

    4) Use that bit with your angle grinder to clean up the edges around everythnig

    5) Go to Creative Paints on Huntley and get their Corranado 2 part floor epoxy

    6) Mix and roll the epoxy accordingly

     

    I would not use anything bought from a retail store for this project; other than tools for prep and application.

     

    DO NOT WALK ON THE FLOOR UNTILL 24 HOURS HAS PASSED AFTER APPLICATION.

     

    Even though you can it will leave tiny footmarks in the clear coat and will see them in certain light/angled.

     

    Feel free to add color chips or have the epoxy color mixed up. I also added a clear coat top with an additional clear grit for more texture.

     

    You should have ~$400 in materials/rental, 4hrs on prep, and 4hrs on application

     

    Start the project WAY early so you can let the concrete dry -completely- from the wet grinding before applying the epoxy.

  11. We either need to nuke that whole area and take it for ourselves or get the fuck out of there and tell any american if you go there your on your own.

     

    That place is an absolute mess that will never change.
