Thailand was the first to open fire and initiate the conflict with Cambodia. Why, then, did Thai media report that Cambodia was the one who provoked the incident by firing first?

It’s a blessing to be able to collaborate with Keen Utility. I wore Keen Utility boots well before we started working together, so it was a very natural fit since I liked their products already. The Kenton safety shoe was inspired by skateboarding shoes. Though NOT meant for skateboarding, I had a good session skateboarding with them today. They are designed for the warehouse worker for all day comfort, and they look great. Even though this shoe is a new launch for the Keen Utility team, I can attest to the comfort of the ReGen soles. I wear the Sparta2 ESD daily (which have the ReGen soles); they’ve got the most miles on them in the past 14 months aside from my running shoes. I’ve walked 3 trade shows in them and plan to walk a couple more in them. My Red Hook work boots (also with ReGen soles) are 2.5 years old and still going. I like the look of the Kenton as I used to wear skates shoes for siding in the summer. What do you think of this new launch? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ’s a blessing to be able to collaborate with Keen Utility.

I’ve worked with my fair share of LP SmartSide and Fibre Cement siding over the years to know that this demonstration isn’t rigged. As an installer, I much prefer working with LP over fibre cement due to the ease of installation. I’ve carried 4x8 panels of both up ladders alone. The LP siding is much lighter and easier to work with. I find fibre cement often gets delivered damaged due to it being much more brittle. I’m not here to promote either, just sharing this fun display I saw at the JLC live show and my personal experience with both. I hope that this video is informative to you. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ’ve worked with my fair share of LP SmartSide and Fibre Cement siding over the years to know that this demonstration isn’t rigged.

Sometimes I look back at some of my work footage and think “That was dumb!” This is one of those instances. When I started cutting, I knew it was stupid but I kept cutting and thinking, it’s only one cut. The reality is that so many things could have gone wrong. These are the list of unsafe things I was doing in this video: 1. I was reaching too far. Being on my tippy toes, I knew that I should have grabbed a ladder so that I could reach it without stretching and being on my tippy toes. Reaching gives me MUCH less control of the saw 2. Cutting with my left hand so I could reach - the fact is I don’t have years of experience cutting with my left hand - meaning I have less control of the saw. If I had a ladder, I could have easily cut with my right. It’s one thing is I’m used to cutting with both hands, but I’m not. 3. I should have set the depth of the blade instead of having it all the way out, but I had it all the way out because I couldn’t reach 4. I knew the blade was dull but I was too lazy to change it. You can see it took me a while to get through it - I also hit a nail and had to take a break for a sec since I was reaching so high. All it would have taken was one little slip up and the situation could have been bad. We all tend to put ourselves in unsafe situations at one point or another. I was just lazy - plain and simple. It’s a matter of being wise about these situations to mitigate the risk of injury. I’m learning this every day and I’m going to keep thinking about this and make a note the next time I get that feeling knowing I can make it safer. I hope this video causes you to think about the various situations you put yourself in. Thanks for watching and following along! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I didn’t know this until last week when I YouTube’d it for something I was making. The other option is to tape around the rope where you need to cut it, cut through the tape and finally melt the ends. All these years of cutting it first, then trying to melt all the frays together 🤦🏻‍♂️😂. I hope this video is helpful to someone else 👍. . . . . . . . . . didn’t know this until last week when I YouTube’d it for something I was making.

I went to Russia to do some siding in Sept 2016. This was a souvenir I purchased while I was there. I used to have grinders with fl**ge nuts without the Allen head option. I would often misplace the fl**ge wrench and it seemed every wrench was a different size depending on the grinder. I purchased this universal wrench to solve this problem. It’s been very useful. I have never seen one of these in Canada. It’s nice that many tool companies now have the Allen key option on the fl**ge nuts so that you can use a regular Allen key to remove and tighten the nut now. Have you seen one of these tools before? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . went to Russia to do some siding in Sept 2016. This was a souvenir I purchased while I was there.

This is how I mark my studs. There are many different ways, it’s just how I settled on doing it. I paper as I go and yes I know I can use the little red marks on the Tyvek as I install it, but the reality is the framing is never equal stud spacing on the entire wall due to 4 ply studs for beams, different window placements, framers building long walls in sections etc. I cut my 9’ rolls of Tyvek in half to avoid going up and down on my pump jacks. I used to do full rolls but just settled on half rolls. What are your different ways of doing it? . . . . . . . . . is how I mark my studs.
