re: Butcher Block Counter Tops
Posted by tropheus12 on 7/2/22 at 2:54 pm
I do butcher block and wood countertops as part of my high end carpentry biz.
The ones from lowes or Hd are usually cheap wood, thin and soft. I have done customs up to 3 inches thick of solid wood.

Not to be the bearer of bad news but....

re: Salt Boatworks - Build Your Own Skiff
Posted by tropheus12 on 8/23/19 at 11:39 am

My advice

Sealing - Plenty of advance sealers today. I personally prefer penet...

Good info here.
For most of my life we have had a family camp and then I had my own little camp but had to sale in divorce. I want to get back on the island but it is hard to make the numbers work (risk/insurance). I am just trying to figure out if renting could be the answer.

Grand Isle rent game.
Posted by tropheus12 on 7/7/19 at 11:11 am
I am curious if any of you guys have rental property in Grand Isle?
I "believe" that the cost of vacation rental in GI is fairly high compared to a lot of other destinations on the Gulf Coast, especially when you consider the cost of the house and property in GI vs higher cost of properties in p...
