Dan’s Superior Cabinetry was created by Dan Schreier, a third-generation cabinetmaker with a passion for woodworking. Dan spent his years as a young boy in St. Paul, Minnesota watching his grandfather build cabinets, when quality was of the essence and work was done by hand. Dan then became a cabinetmaker in his father’s cabinet shop, starting out as a teenager sanding doors and sweeping floors, to becoming lead foreman of the shop. It didn’t take long for people to realize Dan was not an average cabinetmaker. His eye for detail and ability to build anything that comes his way with exceptional speed and outstanding quality set him apart from the rest...

"After pricing at many local places from big box stores to specialty builders Dan offered the best quality for about the same cost. Other places upcharged for all the extra details that Dan included. The quality of his work is high. It is a beautiful vanity that is very well made."

Carpentry questions, answered by experts

You can use a nail to find ceiling joists, but it’s not as reliable as a stud finder, and you’ll end up with lots of small holes in your ceiling. If the nail hits a joist, you'll feel increased resistance. Mark the spot with a pencil. Repeat this process regularly along the ceiling, 16 or 24 inches apart, until you've mapped out the joist locations.

There are a few easy ways to locate a wall stud without a stud finder. First, try knocking on the wall with your knuckles. Most parts of the wall will sound hollow, but when you tap over a stud, it will sound more solid. Alternatively, since studs are spaced 16 or 24 inches apart, you can measure those distances from a corner of the room, which will always have a stud.

Yes, a 2x6 should hold a porch swing and safely support the load. A smaller joist runs the risk of it not offering enough support for the swing. If you have a joist smaller than 2x6, add additional bolstering support.

The average cost of DIY window framing is about $40 to $60 in materials. If you hire a window treatment professional, you’ll pay for materials plus labor costs—anywhere from $250 to $800 per window. The final cost is highly dependent on the window size, as larger windows are heavier and more difficult to install, as well as the type of window framing material.

When choosing a drywall anchor, consider the weight of the object you're hanging and how much weight the anchor will need to support. The heavier the weight, the stronger the anchor you'll need. You’ll find the weight capacity on the packaging when shopping for anchors. 

Also, remember that you can use more than one anchor when hanging something on the wall. If you're using multiple anchors, divide the object weight by the number of anchors to determine how much each will need to support. If you need help deciding which drywall anchor to use, you can hire a handyperson to hang your objects.
