    OFFICIAL Game of Thrones Thread

    I haven't seen it discussed but I feel like part of the problem making the season feel rushed could be salary. There is a large ensemble cast with many actors who were relatively unknown and now they can command a much higher salary per episode, and many of them are anxious to capitalize on...

    The Home Ownership Thread

    I have some fixtures in my garage shop similar to what Skinny describes, just from Sam's Club instead. One thing I realized when I painted the walls stark white was that they use 2 different temperature LEDs alternating in the assembly, and you start to get cones of different cast light as a...

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Why not go the electronic route, and if you're really worried about the battery issue, add a combination lock box in a discrete location with a key inside? I don't know that I've seen mechanical combination locks on exterior doors, and I have seen mechanical combination locks fail. We had a...

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    Visiting the Rothko Chapel in Houston gave me a greater appreciation for his work. The filtered light through the baffled skylight and the way it changes the light quality as clouds pass overhead reveals the depth of the painting, transforming them from black rectangles into deep varied hues...

    The Home Ownership Thread

    Our washer and dryer are stacked in a hall closet, but they are too deep for a swing door to work. My next project is to build a large (40"x80") wide framed mirror and use a type of barn door hardware to allow it to cover the units when not in use.

     They may have changed things but when I looked last year Mitsubishi had wifi support in Europe and Asia but not in North America.

    Cool furniture, design objects and desiderata

    They work much better as a flush mount where the conduit "tail" is minimal. However, they do not seem to work very well in any of the renderings they chose.

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

     Yes, they definitely fit differently. The USA Milano ran slightly larger, had more closed quarters, more wadding in the sleeve head and did not sit well on my shoulders. They have revamped the fit made in the USA last fall and the shoulders are much better and it fits closer to the Italian...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

     For me it fits slightly better in the same size as a Milano fit that's made in Italy. I usually have to get the neck nipped for a roll but it doesn't happen with any of the Natural Craftsmanship collection. If Milano works for you then this jacket in the same size will work as well, in my...

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

     Call them about the missing buttons for a replacement. I would keep if it fits well. I have this jacket and I love it, one of my favorites.

    The Home Ownership Thread

     When we bought our house, we spent a month and a half removing the old baseboard heaters, painting, and refinishing the floors. Sitting in the house after we had sanded the 100 year old heart pine but not yet protected it, I just wanted to live in that empty house with those beautiful...

    The Home Ownership Thread

     Do you know a local architect that you like/trust? I would ask them for recommendations. A lot of people come to my firm looking for small houses or additions and it really isn't economical for us, so we will refer them to a GC we have worked with who does small scale projects and has a...

     No, they are aluminum. He said it right there.

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

     Thanks, I thought they had taken that down. How do you (or anyone else) find the fit when compared to Madison, Regent, and Milano?

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    I'm sure this has been covered somewhere but BB no longer has the sizing guide for black fleece on the website. Anyone have a recommendation on what size would fit comparably to a small in the regent fit?

    The Home Ownership Thread

     My grandfather built a brick house in the 1950s and the builder discouraged him from insulating the walls because the price of oil was so low that the cost of insulating was not worth it.

    Is there a fabric book online for overcoats for 2016? Currently I only see 2013 and 2014 on the info page Overcoats

    When is the Next Brooks Brothers Sale?

    Cream Herringbone Sport Coat I plan on picking up this jacket. Already 70% off, plus an additional 25%. And if I can grab a gift card a discount it'll drive it down even more. The Natural Craftsmanship stuff fits slim, almost like milano fit, so keep that in mind. But they are very well made. I...
