So if you have a drain in the basement, that's definitely what you'd want to do. Otherwise, you'd definitely have to take Anonymous's advice.Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698839146562734910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-49404778556873769472011-06-25T11:38:57.099-04:002011-06-25T11:38:57.099-04:00Re dehumidifier: Consider where you will be empty...Re dehumidifier: Consider where you will be emptying the collection bin. Do you have sink in the basement? If so, go for the biggest bin ... you will need it in August. If not, consider the weight of the filled bin and the stairway you will ascend to empty the water ...<br /><br />Also, make it a religious practice to empty the bin Every. Single. Day. in June-August, maybe into September if it's a hot year. You really don't want that bin to overflow or the machine to auto-shutdown on the most humid day of the summer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-27701006931928597542011-06-22T21:19:14.982-04:002011-06-22T21:19:14.982-04:00Reading Titus Andronicus can be a great deal of fu...Reading <i>Titus Andronicus</i> can be a great deal of fun, if your mind works that way - it was certainly fun when I read it to The Authoress. Amidst the general blood-and-thunder over-the-top-ness, there are some bit that particularly stand out: such as the last scene, in which three people are killed in as many speeches; or the stage direction in Act III, Scene 1, <i>"Enter a </i>Messenger,<i> with two heads, and a hand,"</i> which caused the reading to be suspended for several days on account of hysteria.Bob the Apehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303535277957530100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-53709649634859327762011-06-22T13:50:15.221-04:002011-06-22T13:50:15.221-04:00Don't know how much you want to spend but The ...Don't know how much you want to spend but The Sampler makes very fine furniture.

(Very important to get one that explicitly has the EnergyStar label; dehumidifiers are essentially refrigerator+fan, so they can eat up a lot of electricity if you don't make sure they have energy-saving features.)Brandonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06698839146562734910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-9572950696413667522011-06-22T11:39:14.217-04:002011-06-22T11:39:14.217-04:00Possible furniture source:

Although with your fine start on refinishing, maybe you should become a carpenter yourself.<br /><br />4. We had a dehumidifier in the basement of our last house. I don't remember the brand, but it worked wonders after we learned to drain it into an old deepsink instead of letting the water collect - and overfill - the holding tank in the back of the machine.Emily J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01132106976424535611noreply@blogger.com
