We have a 10'7" ceiling...but only 22.5" joist separation...most 10-12' ladders are intended for 25" openings...so we had to use the 8-10' one...which was great because it was only $169 with 10% off...BUT, it's max height is 10'3". I was going to extend the feet a bit, but it won't clear when closing the door...next best thing. Still better than pulling myself up off a ladder!
started trim
and done...unfortunately had to work around the door bracket...it was a tight tolerance and I didn't want to have to move the rough opening.

thanks!
actually...I missed using my brad nailer!
I might make a piece of furniture now...I love that thing.
Thanks everyone...it's getting there, really wanted a place to be proud of. Betty and I hosted a few get togethers in the last few weeks and everyone really loved coming to hang out. Even did some midnight darkness runs in the kayak down the canal Saturday night.

The TLX crowd..
Was the TSX crowd the same way or is this a new breed of stupid?

With every new model, there's always a new breed... although inbreeding does occur on the occasion...

So what's with the TLX crowd?
Team Owner
have you not browsed through any of their threads? Let me save you the headache- just avoid that place all together- it's like getting sucked in to a vortex of never ending denial and stupidity, fueled by the dark energy of Acura's impending doom.

I don't see what's so wrong about the TLX, other than the complete lack of a third pedal.
It's a damn sight prettier than the 4G TL.
That said, I think the 3G TL and 1G TSX are damn sharp cars and everything since has been a downhill plummet.

In all reality, the 4G TL never should have happened, and the TLX should have been the 4G TL... 5 years ago (without the I4).

The V6 also doesn't have a stick gear selector.. it's a turn dial.. err knob.

For the record, I would consider the Altima 2.5 one of the most boring car I've ever tried. I was looking at the third gen Altimas before buying the TL and tried a 2.5L version for shit and giggles and it felt like I needed to start wearing a hat, go to church on Sunday and eat all-bran pretty much instantly. I imagine the TLX with a 2.4 feels exactly the same.
As for third pedal, making manual TLs was a mistake and a money pit for Acura. Sales just were never good, it wasn't worth it. I understand the move completely. I think it sucks though, I wish people would have asked for the manual versions more so they'd be readily available, but alas that's not the case.
They messed up pretty bad with the 2nd gen TSX though by introducing the 3.5L V6. Compete against your own TL, real smart, yet offer less than Audi, Infiniti and Lexus.
Anyway it doesn't take much to see Acura is being nostalgic thinking of the money they made during the older 2nd gen and 3rd gen TL times where they sold twice the amount of cars every year compared to the 4th gen (and I imagine the TLX).

PB.. dude.. sit down. 4G TL was so fucking ugly.. the 3.5L TSX was the only saving grace of that gen. It gave those who weren't blind, an option to upgrade rather than stepping away from the brand.
Registered Bunny
Haven't thought of it that way. Still can't say the 2nd gen TSX was pretty.

Jump over him.. and be out.
I know you saw the Bulls kiss cam.. total setup but funny nonetheless.
Next to a 4G TL, it looked like a fucking Ferrari 458

The V6 TSX was also a couple hundred lbs lighter than the 4G TL base.. *cough*
