I've got a "kicker" stretcher you can have Roy. Bought it for 1 job, hit it a couple of times, knee said it didn't like it. A power stretcher is the way to go.
Theresa will remember helping fix her room forever.

 

Cutting the carpet with a sawzall is a first for me too! That's awesome! Great job Roy!

 

Roy must like the rough edge look.

 

Roy is a little "rough around the edges" too, so now the carpet matches the installer.

 

Roy still likes the 'shaggy look' ........
I dont know how he didnt cut his foot, only lost one pinkey so far

 

That photo is shining example of Roy's can-do attitude!

 

Ingenuity at its absolute best

 

Good morning my friends.........
Thanks for stopping by...

Of course, the rough / fuzzy edge will go away once the carpet is tucked in against the wall and the leftover is cut off, with a knife.........

Thanks for the kind comments.......

Gerry.....the finger casualty ....and hand.....is going to the Doc this morning by order of Foreman, Lynn......

 

I hope you feel better Roy...hard to be a one handed carpet layer!

 

I have a cordless Sawsall and my favorite trick is to use a tree trim blade and trim trees. Really easy and safe for branches up to 3". Most members here are pretty sharp and probably know of this use for a sawsall but when I use this, someone always seems to wonder by and ask where I got this blade. Amazon sells everything. Also would make a great battery operated camping saw.

bruce...

 

Roy would kill himself with those things Bruce,
dont give him any ideas

Lynn is taking Roy by the hand to the nurses office

 

I do the same thing, Bruce. Lot safer overhead than a chain saw.

 

Chain saws are more fun.....

Sitting in the urgent card Clinic......waiting to see the Doctor.

 

Gee, Roy. I thought SD Rob (now in TX) was bad with tools. Should we call you Rob Jr and ban you from using any tools....

My best wishes for you, and a speedy recovery.

 

I really hope its not bad Roy, just a sprain ???
I know we pick on you but you're such an easy target, good luck chum
