    Good point, don't want to face the wrath of a woman. Scary stuff. Tell you what, I'll head out that way and do your floor and you can do a frame for my 80. Sounds like a plan. I'll leave in the morning. It'll only take me a week or so at 65-70 lol

    I just did the floors in my house. Just remember to go in a straight line. I ran the line stright through my house, then branched off that. Oh and don't forget to use those little + things for the spacing.

    lol, i've already done 3/4 of the living room. i squared off the room and strung lines since i'm doing it myself and my little ones don't know how to use a snap line yet :D. everything has gone smoothly except one thing...

    i bought a wet saw from home depot, and when i opened it the damn thing had already been used! so i had to go and change it out with another :brickknock:

    too bad I don't live in Arizona and that I have no cash. I'd buy it off you. I regret selling mine.

    Sorry to thread jack my friend.
