Alrighty then...learn something new every day! And here I was going to buy a ton of BATT and insulate b/w the basement -> main floor.

So you’re saying just the walls and floor? And keep the space in between floors without insulation?

Was just looking at those boxes at PA in Scarborough...but they were $25 or more here. Good use case for them. May pick some up when they're on sale.

I think you're correct. The insulation is actually damn good within the cottage. Only issue is that the unfinished basement (with warm air going in) doesn't have insulation b/w the basement and the main floor...so the cold permeates into the living space and furnace needs to keep turning on...

Pretty sure it's just the framing and insulation...that's what my dad said anyway. I haven't opened it up.

We were at the cottage this weekend and haven't seen anything on Lucy yet...we'll keep checking as those bastards will be easier to see as they grow. Neighbours went to a provincial park near Peterborough recently for 2 days...40 ticks on their dog.

Wait a second…that may not be a bad idea. Tell me more!

I’m thinking of doing 1 room just to see. If it’s bad then I’ll just rip it all out. Ceiling is tougher as the minute I remove it all the insulation is coming down.

I was almost thinking I’d like the texture. Still deciding but need something to ‘open’ up the cottage a bit and update it a bit.

Want to get rid of the wood panels at the cottage….either paint them or rip them out to replace with drywall…. Thoughts? If painting how to paint properly? There are ridges on the panels which may not paint well…

Wife doesn't want it in the house anyway...so I guess it's going back It's under 366FPS, looks like a prohibited firearm, I didn't have it before 1998, and it's too much risk for little reward. Anyone got recommendations for a LEGAL airsoft / bb gun?

Alrighty...so I guess the consensus is 'stay away from that thing'. Too bad. Looked to be good fun.

Trying to get into airsoft and holy **** what a mess of laws. Got my hands on this: https://www.sigsauer.com/proforce-p229-airsoft-pistol-green-gas.html And thankfully @GreyGhost was kind enough to explain to me that it’s effectively illegal to own as it’s too close to LOOKING like a real...
