With the time off that accompanies the holidays I'm looking to get a couple of projects done. First on my list is to properly vent my clothes dryer. I thinking of possibly running an additional leng

I hate wasting all that good heat myself but I wouldn't want to pump all that super saturated humidity into my garage . . How about running the heated air through a junkyard radiator as a heat-exchan

Having just discovered "the hard way" that you can have too much ducting on a dryer, you might want to check the limits before you undertake this. I extended my venting to go thru the garage and out

I don't know about the drilling a hole part, but you might want to rethink venting the dryer to the garage. The air coming out of the dryer is very moist, and you would make a very humid garage - gre

Just so everyone knows, the garage is not that well sealed. There's enough gaps here & there in the walls so actually trapping humidity would be difficult. It's just a crazy little idea sparked after

I vented the dryer to my garage about 6 or 7 years ago...bad idea ! I started fighting rust on my tools within a few months and corroded the wheels on my motorcycle pretty quickly. Made the wheels an

Hey PJ, How's it going? You've guessed the right Justin! I figure I'd let my new Milwaukee hammer drill take a crack at it before I go the route of renting a tool. I'm sure a $1000 tool will do a lot

I've drilled a fair number of holes through concrete, and the biggest obstacle is reinforcing steel. If your house dates from 1920, you might be able to find out what local practices were then, and i

You are still going to dump a LOT of moisture in a place that does not need it. Noting wrong with that. I'd sugest removing the glass and replacing it with Lexan (polycarbonate). This stuff is tough

Yes, but what about lint ? My dryer is vented into the garage, with a lint trap in the dryer and another one on the end of the vent; and yet over a period of years, everything in the vicinity of the

Everyone else seemed to answer a bunch of questions you didn't ask, so I'll answer the one you did. The best way would be to go to a good industrial tool rental place and rent a core drill. It's like

Thanks Dave! I didn't know about a core drill! Then I did a little searching. Now that's a testosterone drill! http://shop.store.yahoo.com/toolsplus/flebh812vv.html It sounds like the one you're talk

Hire a concrete cutting company. I had to drill a 4" hole through a very tough fireplace hearth (about 14" thick), so I called a few companies to get a quote. They came to the house, cut the hole ex
