from the panel to this light.
129
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,533

at the top of the stairs.
137
00:02:52,533 --> 00:02:54,367

on the white conductor

00:02:54,433 --> 00:02:56,000
of this cable,

goes to the switch,

00:02:57,433 --> 00:03:00,033
and comes back down on the
142
00:02:57,433 --> 00:03:00,033
black wire to this light fixture
143
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:02,333

put that wire nut back on.

588
00:13:09,266 --> 00:13:12,233

589
00:13:09,266 --> 00:13:12,233
is get underneath there.
590
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,700
And you just want
591
00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:14,700
the surface?
592
00:13:14,767 --> 00:13:16,000

593

596
00:13:17,900 --> 00:13:20,533
or close enough to it
597
00:13:17,900 --> 00:13:20,533

take out here,
602
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:26,433
this is gonna substitute
603
00:13:23,900 --> 00:13:26,433
and be right under there.

low spot right here.
613

is I want to get some compost,
615

616
00:14:01,333 --> 00:14:02,667

617

if the soil is not good?
627
00:14:15,033 --> 00:14:17,000
Lee: Okay, so, there's a bunch
628
00:14:15,033 --> 00:14:17,000
of things you could do.
629

the little cars that...
952
00:20:29,066 --> 00:20:31,200
-Kevin: Yeah.
953
00:20:31,266 --> 00:20:32,633
Second place.
954
00:20:31,266 --> 00:20:32,633
Cub Scouts right here.
955
00:20:32,700 --> 00:20:34,133
-Tom: Yeah.
956
00:20:32,700 --> 00:20:34,133
-Mark: Ninth place.
957
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,200
Tom: Well, what do you do
958
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,200
in the wintertime?
959
00:20:36,266 --> 00:20:38,400
You can't race the cars
960
00:20:36,266 --> 00:20:38,400
on the ice.
961
00:20:38,467 --> 00:20:42,100
This is like a Pinewood Derby
962
00:20:38,467 --> 00:20:42,100
car for the ice.
963
00:20:42,166 --> 00:20:44,500
You can see this is the hood
964
00:20:42,166 --> 00:20:44,500
of the vehicle.
965
00:20:44,567 --> 00:20:46,400
-Kevin: Oh, yeah.
966
00:20:44,567 --> 00:20:46,400
-Tom: Here's the windshield
967
00:20:44,567 --> 00:20:46,400
right there.
968
00:20:46,467 --> 00:20:47,834
And when they run down
969
00:20:46,467 --> 00:20:47,834
the track,
970
00:20:47,900 --> 00:20:49,367
go right down the ice real fast,
971
00:20:49,433 --> 00:20:50,767
and it just slides right across.
972
00:20:50,834 --> 00:20:52,133
It stays up nice and slow.
973
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,033
-Kevin: Is that right?
974
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,033
-Tom: They go forever.
975
00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:55,700
Mark: Okay.
976
00:20:54,100 --> 00:20:55,700
I like that. That's good.
977
00:20:55,767 --> 00:20:56,734
Not.
978
00:20:55,767 --> 00:20:56,734
-Kevin: [ Chuckles ]
979
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,467
Mark: But what it is --
980
00:20:56,800 --> 00:20:59,467
You're close.
981
00:20:59,533 --> 00:21:00,667
This is a concrete skate.
982
00:21:00,734 --> 00:21:02,700
So what I do, wet concrete,
983
00:21:02,767 --> 00:21:04,700
I take one,
984
00:21:02,767 --> 00:21:04,700
strap it onto my boot.
985
00:21:04,767 --> 00:21:06,734
I take another.
986
00:21:04,767 --> 00:21:06,734
I strap it onto my other boot.
987
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,934
-Kevin: Oh.
988
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,934
-Mark: And I'll give you guys
989
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:08,934
a little bit.
990
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,166
When I was a young man,
991
00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,166
figure skater,
992
00:21:11,233 --> 00:21:13,967
I actually did a triple Lux
993
00:21:11,233 --> 00:21:13,967
for the --
994
00:21:14,033 --> 00:21:15,266
Same thing.
995
00:21:14,033 --> 00:21:15,266
-Tom: Triple Lux ?
996
00:21:15,333 --> 00:21:16,934
It's not Lux. It's Lutz.
997
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,734
Mark: No, I knew that, Tom.
998
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,166
Now you're getting technical.
999
00:21:21,233 --> 00:21:22,700
I mean, we were talking about
1000
00:21:21,233 --> 00:21:22,700
something else, by the way.
1001
00:21:22,767 --> 00:21:25,266
Kevin: All I can see is Mark
1002
00:21:22,767 --> 00:21:25,266
figure-skating in a leotard.
1003
00:21:25,333 --> 00:21:27,300
-Tom: Yeah.
1004
00:21:25,333 --> 00:21:27,300
-Kevin: I don't feel good.
1005
00:21:27,367 --> 00:21:28,567
Mark: I'm hurt, too.
1006
00:21:28,633 --> 00:21:29,633
-Kevin: I don't feel good.
1007
00:21:28,633 --> 00:21:29,633
-Mark: I'm hurt, too.
1008
00:21:29,700 --> 00:21:31,200
Kevin: No surprise --
1009
00:21:31,266 --> 00:21:32,300
all wrong.
1010
00:21:32,367 --> 00:21:33,600
-Mark: Oh!
1011
00:21:32,367 --> 00:21:33,600
-Tom: Oh, come on.
1012
00:21:33,667 --> 00:21:35,467
Kevin: Listen here. I got --
1013
00:21:35,533 --> 00:21:37,066
Tony wouldn't send us
1014
00:21:35,533 --> 00:21:37,066
that kind of garbage.
1015
00:21:37,133 --> 00:21:38,834
-Man: That's true.
1016
00:21:37,133 --> 00:21:38,834
-Kevin: Deckboards right here.
1017
00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:42,867
Right? And these things
1018
00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:42,867
are actually spacers.
1019
00:21:38,900 --> 00:21:42,867
-Man: What?!
1020
00:21:42,934 --> 00:21:44,367
Kevin: And they give you
1021
00:21:42,934 --> 00:21:44,367
two spacing options.
1022
00:21:44,433 --> 00:21:46,734
So, this side you can see
1023
00:21:44,433 --> 00:21:46,734
is 1/8".
1024
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,000
So that's this dimension
1025
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,000
right here.
1026
00:21:49,066 --> 00:21:53,233
Or the other side, the 3/16",
1027
00:21:49,066 --> 00:21:53,233
is this dimension right here.
1028
00:21:53,300 --> 00:21:54,834
Alright? So you fasten
1029
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:57,433
your first deck board
1030
00:21:54,900 --> 00:21:57,433
to the frame, okay?
1031
00:21:57,500 --> 00:21:59,633
And, then, you just take your --
1032
00:21:57,500 --> 00:21:59,633
Let's use an 1/8".
1033
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:01,700
-Man: A 1/8".
1034
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:01,700
-Kevin: You pop it in
1035
00:21:59,700 --> 00:22:01,700
right there,
1036
00:22:01,767 --> 00:22:03,567
and you set it as 1/8".
1037
00:22:03,633 --> 00:22:06,166
Pop it in right there.
1038
00:22:03,633 --> 00:22:06,166
Set it as an 1/8".
1039
00:22:06,233 --> 00:22:08,867
Tony actually sent me
1040
00:22:06,233 --> 00:22:08,867
four of them.
1041
00:22:08,934 --> 00:22:11,033
And, then -- wha-bam!
1042
00:22:08,934 --> 00:22:11,033
-Man: Wow.
1043
00:22:11,100 --> 00:22:13,233
Kevin: And -- wha-bam!
1044
00:22:11,100 --> 00:22:13,233
And look at that.
1045
00:22:13,300 --> 00:22:15,367
And, then, so if you just
1046
00:22:13,300 --> 00:22:15,367
for a second pull them out,
1047
00:22:15,433 --> 00:22:17,100
you can just see how perfect
1048
00:22:15,433 --> 00:22:17,100
and aligned those are.
1049
00:22:17,166 --> 00:22:18,233
How about that, huh?
1050
00:22:18,300 --> 00:22:19,400
Tom: It's actually pretty good,
1051
00:22:19,467 --> 00:22:21,100
'cause it is difficult
1052
00:22:19,467 --> 00:22:21,100
to space out the boards.
1053
00:22:21,166 --> 00:22:22,800
Kevin:
1054
00:22:21,166 --> 00:22:22,800
You can thank Tony for that.
1055
00:22:22,867 --> 00:22:23,867
-Mark: Okay.
1056
00:22:22,867 --> 00:22:23,867
-Kevin: Alright.
1057
00:22:23,934 --> 00:22:24,934
Well, that's it for us,
1058
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,567
but we would love to hear
1059
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,567
from you.
1060
00:22:26,633 --> 00:22:28,734
So make sure that you keep
1061
00:22:26,633 --> 00:22:28,734
your questions coming.
1062
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,800
Until next time,
1063
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,800
I'm Kevin O'Connor.
1064
00:22:30,867 --> 00:22:32,033
Mark: I'm Mark McCullough.
1065
00:22:32,100 --> 00:22:33,133
Tom: I'm Tom Silva.
1066
00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,500
Mauro: I'm Mauro Henrique.
1067
00:22:34,567 --> 00:22:36,467
Kevin:
1068
00:22:34,567 --> 00:22:36,467
For "Ask This Old House."
1069
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,633
Kevin: Next time
1070
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,633
on "Ask This Old House"...
1071
00:22:44,700 --> 00:22:47,333
Richard shows a homeowner
1072
00:22:44,700 --> 00:22:47,333
a DIY-friendly way
1073
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,500
to add a hose spigot
1074
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,500
to his backyard.
1075
00:22:50,567 --> 00:22:52,600
Richard: It's not completely
1076
00:22:50,567 --> 00:22:52,600
do-it-yourself.
1077
00:22:52,667 --> 00:22:54,900
Straight in. Nicely done.
1078
00:22:54,967 --> 00:22:57,000
Kevin:
1079
00:22:54,967 --> 00:22:57,000
Then, Jenn shows a homeowner
1080
00:22:57,066 --> 00:22:58,433
how to use cover crops
1081
00:22:58,500 --> 00:23:01,200
to maintain soil health
1082
00:22:58,500 --> 00:23:01,200
through the winter.
1083
00:23:01,266 --> 00:23:03,767
Jenn: I can't wait to see if
1084
00:23:01,266 --> 00:23:03,767
your tomatoes taste different,
1085
00:23:03,834 --> 00:23:06,500
like, if you get more
1086
00:23:03,834 --> 00:23:06,500
of a bumper crop.
1087
00:23:03,834 --> 00:23:06,500
-Woman: Yeah.
1088
00:23:06,567 --> 00:23:07,600
Kevin: All that on...
