something actually works


I stayed home today and decided to attach some boards and shelves inside my sump cabinet on the side and get the power strips and ballasts out of the way.

In Popular Mechanics I saw a bit on Loctite Power Grab construction adhesive and that is will hold stuff clamp free a lot of the time way better than existing brands. For five bucks they had a cylinder with an applicator on it so you dont have to get the "greasegun". This is at Lowes and I am sure HD.

The boards and even the 3" shelves stuck in there easily to the sides of the cabinet from the get go and glued up great. This is a great solution for when you have a sump full of junk already and cant get in there with fasteners.

Well off to Wallymart now...three power strips are green and one is white...this won't do.
