    Do-it-yourselfers strike again

    Home inspectors can tell you what code violations that are obvious. The real inspections happen during construction. This is why I can't believe our own legislature considered doing away with inspections for work done by owners. If that would have passed a lot more of you would have stories...

    Do-it-yourselfers strike again

    Doing some research when I was building my house on patio doors. Both probuild and lowest sold the same door. Lowe's was quite a bit cheaper. Found out that manufacturer will sell lowest lower quality products to big box stores targeting DIYers. Also I worked for an electrical contractor and I...

    Do-it-yourselfers strike again

    Another word of advice. If you feel you are component enough to do your own work don't buy a majority of your stuff at a big box store. By from supply houses or lumber yards.

    Do-it-yourselfers strike again

    Just thought I would post this to get everyone's thoughts. Thankfully this did not pass but I can't believe it was even was proposed and had 24 people in support of it. http://www.legis.nd.gov/assembly/65-2017/bill-actions/ba1327.html

    I work in the electrical industry and come across a lot of wiring that owners do. It's amazing the work people consider safe...then cover up with sheet rock. Where Inspectors can't see.

    I haven't used this knot yet. But these salt water guys swear by it. Just make sure you pull it tight before cutting tag ends. Check out there other videos.

    No Life jackets

    I got two inflatabes so I make sure that my buddy wears one and is comfortable. I too wish that they make one for kids. A life jacket isn't mentioned to be a fashion statement. It's meant to be worn for when you need it and that you can return home and tell everyone what happened instead of...

    What type of vest did you find. I found an inflatable for myself but they seem a little big for him. Poor kid is in a neoprene one now.

    I am pretty new. I fished the river last year so I know how to find sandbars. (There easy to find). I have avoided a lot of areas with boat concentration because of this. This is why I am asking for help. BTW fly carp I see we have a similar interest. Fly fishing for carp is on of the most...

    New boat angler

    Hello everyone. I was wondering if anyone out there would be willing to give me any tricks or techniques on fishing for walleye on the Missouri River. I grew up fly fishing small lakes and the knife river in ND. Last spring I bought a boat and let me tell you it's be a learning curve...
