The other ones are looking vaguely around making faces appropriate to their ages and genders, but Gavin seems to be debating in his mind whether he can grab the camera from where he's sitting and, if so, whether he can turn it into something useful, like a chewtoy or a an official Red Ryder carbine action two-hundred shot range model air rifle with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07560116527998547877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29104195.post-60478454990011076782008-05-28T17:26:00.000-04:002008-05-28T17:26:00.000-04:00But how do you get the nail head not to stick up, ...But how do you get the nail head not to stick up, taunting me like a Whack-a-Mole game?

A nail that goes through the drywall into the cavity between studs avails you naught. (They sell gadgets called, get this, stud finders.) So if the drywall is 1/2" and the trim piece is 1/2", you'll need a finishing nail that's like 1 3/4" long, driven into the stud.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
