Popular Post 41chevy Posted February 15, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2014 With all the ice and snow I have a bit of down time so to keep occupied I've decided to cure some house problems. One was every time my wife comes in she opens the door into the stop and shakes the whole house. Using the Red Greene / Tim Allen approach my peanut brain figured a loud noise would stop the door problem....So duct tape a air horn to the rubber stop.... Simple and effective...... Poof! another idea shot to crap. The Cure.THERESULT.............. 3 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34692-my-red-greene-moment/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

RowdyRebel Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 ...since ya gots a hole ta patch anyways, cut the hole a little bigger...square it off so you can patch it easier. Use a scrap piece of 2x4 and run it horizontally between the 2 studs so that the door stop is in front of a solid piece of wall. Patch the hole, and try again with the air horn...this time it'll have a solid backstop. 1 Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!

Green Dash Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Put the can back in the hole and re-tape it. Then all you have to do is reinforce the wall in the adjacent room. 2 Quote Jim Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34692-my-red-greene-moment/#findComment-232978 Share on other sites More sharing options...
