Raised by a carpenter with a physics degree, I claim lots of booklearnin' but only the usual "amateur" experience level. Take my advice with the same grain of salt you'd take any random voice on the internet!

How do I hang a chair from a concrete ceiling from a single hook? 2x margin seems low. People tend to hang/swing on stuff way to much. Also what is behind the concrete? I.e is it a poured ceiling, is there structure in there, a beam, etc? |

Help reinstalling an external door threshold Yeah, that'd've worked. I ended up using vice grips...turns out they were square-cut nails(!) anyway so they pulled easily. Now, to figure out the glue... |

Does a homeowner need a permit for electrical work in Massachusetts? I would love to know this answer too. I have heard people say both yes and no. Plumbing is also a question but I have heard a clearer "no" there (it's one thing to burn your house down, but another to get septic into the clean water system and poison the whole town...) |

What are the tools that every Do-it-Yourselfer must own? Multitools are useful because once you're up the ladder/stuck in the crawlspace, there's always that one extra tool you didn't bring with you. Sure, the screwdriver might suck, but at least it's there. |
