Did you have one of these as a kid?

Have you ever plugged a lamp into a wall socket? Did it explode afterwards? If not, you're probably ok.

Lew, you can figure out low voltage lights. Just don't strip wires with your teeth when it is plugged in.

Lewdog - I'd suggest do a little online nosing around. I know Lowes, typically, have online info & guides for low voltage lighting that would include installation instructions. It'll give you an idea of your comfort level. It's kinda hard, but not impossible, to fook up the low voltage side of things. The hardest part maybe finding an exterior electrical outlet to tap into to power the power supply. Normally, it is the 110v side that gets tricky.

Or get the ones with solar panels. No wiring needed.

Solar ones don't put out enough light and I want something I know will be on, not based on the light it gets from the day. The solar ones all look cheap. We have some in the backyard which work ok but we have an HOA and I think they would look tacky in the front.

Where do you find Masonite siding replacement, the stuff with all the lawsuits. My house is covered in it and I need to replace a couple of sections. I bought some siding at Home Depot and it didn't match for crap. Anyone?

painting sheet rock?
Just built a new house and have a big garage. I want to paint it, but need to know if I have to sand it first. The seams have been taped and mudded by the builders, but the screw holes have not. Definitely getting a sprayer. ![]()
