I just retired a couple weeks ago, so my honey-do list was started long ago. Unfortunately, some of it is self-inflicted My big project is to replace all the interior doors with new oak 6-panel doors and frames. I actually look forward to that project (I enjoy home remodeling), but it's the putsy little projects that I hate.

My list starts tomorrow morning with the garage..........

Cavelierowner, when we put our house on the market last year, we (that means me) changed 6 doors on the main level with 6 panel oak doors. Menards has these metal brackets that you hang the door frame called "The Quick Door Hanger" by express products (they have a HSOforum and a video too) that made the framing of the door extremely easy. In fact there is no shiming involved at all. After the 2nd door frame installed, it took me about 5 minutes to get the last 4 frames installed, all doors were level and plum.....amazing product and insanely simple to use

you can count how many things are on the list? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

I own an 80 year old house. I just think of it as a work in progress.

I have seen those metal door hangers you have talked about. I thought it was a pretty good idear!

Hey, if I don't keep count and check them off the list, I will never get in the boat on opener!

I watched the installation video and that really looks interesting! The 2 things I like is that it makes it much easier for one person to hang a door and it gives me an excuse to buy a 6' level! Can't have too many tools!! I don't know that I would want to rely on only the metal brackets; I think I would still do at least some shimming. I think I'll have a couple of my carpenter friends take a look at this and get their take on it and find out if they're using it. Many times if something is not being used by professionals, there's a reason for it.

Honey-do list???? Is that what that piece of paper is for hanging on the fridge that says Your to do list? Been hanging their all winter.

In some cases I do agree with this. In other cases some people just do it their way because well that is the way they have always done it and the way they were taught.

Even if the product works and saves you time, they will still tell you it is not faster and not right even if it is. Specially stubborn Germans.
