Given that we pack an arsenal of tools for our work, we frequently are asked to weigh in on tool decisions for friends and family. In the spirit of the holidays, we want to present a gift of our “top ten tool picks” for the DIY’er or handyman/ woman on your list. Ahh, yes.. if we had the money we would buy all the tools we can get our hands on! Since we can’t, here are a few essentials that won’t break the bank. [ . . . ]
BMoxies 2nd Ever Photo Week – Day 3 (Mad Pads – The Underworld Edition)

Although historical intrigue is the primary attraction of the Lemp Brewery, the lesson learned from utilizing underground storage is not insignificant. Nearby, there are currently residential homes and commercial businesses that are built sub-surface -- realizing significant energy benefits. With a steady temperature between 54-57 degreees in most caves, only a small amount of heating and cooling is required to provide a good climate for living or storage. [ . . . ]
What’s Great About Remodeling :: Paul Hamtil

I say that I ended up a remodeler by accident. But this is only half-true. It was not intentional, but . . . probably intended. My brother and I, like so many other Friends-in-Moxie, started as builders at an old junker, 8’-folding table -- we dubbed it, “Lego City”. There, we spent countless hours creating everything we could dream up. We were seriously addicted, which was scary, but nonetheless it was a catalyst of passion for building things. Later, we moved on to building forts in the woods near our house as well as to cardboard cities in the big abandoned garden in our yard. As sons of a civil engineer, turned remodeler, a little bit of my father's skills must have rubbed off on us. And that could explain why we were the go-to kids for all the neighborhood build projects. [ . . . ]
