Sleeping.

Okay all you Woodworkers out there :hello:
I have a tech question :ugh2:
I’ve noticed that the 1/2” diameter zinc plated carriage bolts I’ve been using on my box are rusting rather quickly on the surface contacting the treated lumber :eek:
Perhaps I should have gotten the dull finish dipped galvanized bolts instead :icon14:
Any input on this is appreciated; as I’ve removed some bolts to install longer or shorter ones & noticed the rust/corrosion on the shanks :shakes head: :ugh2:
Thanks :tiphat:

:hello:

I'z up. :yawn:

Working 9 to 1 today.

Come home a trying to finish up working on the motorhome. Fixing the broken water line in the slide out outside kitchen. Talk about tight spaces. :shakes head: Had to cut out a section of hidden wall. :shakes head:

:icon17:

Good morning folks!:tiphat:

You'll want the galvanized. The treated lumber will corrode the other, as you're already seeing.

Who do I look like, JAR?

:wtf2:

Good Tuesday Morning All. Already had coffee and gym time the morning. :happydance: The weather here in Austin has not been great the last couple of days with Fog through the afternoon with drizzle. But the temps have bee ok with the highs in the 65-75 range with a chance of rain every day this week. :shakes head: Anyway hope you all have a good one and be safe out there!! :tup:

I've never seen you both in the same place; you may actually BE Jar, posting under an assumed name!

Or you might be giving ambien-inspired blowjobs. I'm not your doctor, I just play one for money.

So........... you didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night?

Hey now. I've never sucked anyone off for car parts. Just drugs...

:iagree:

Not just the bolts but all nails and screws as well.

Not sure what you plan to use for siding but if you go with metal sheeting you will need something between the treated lumber and the sheeting. It will eat the metal away in a short time if you have contact.

This is perfect weather! idk what you're on about!

Good mernin' all you sexy sexy Z people.
