I used clear fishing line on my 24 spoons, no foam needed.

Susan649 is right, that's how you learn what you actually need.

Oh man, that's like watching someone mow their lawn in a rainstorm. Sure, you can do it, but why would you want to? I guess some folks just see a tree and think any time is a good time for a chainsaw. It's wild that the crews themselves don't know better, or maybe they just don't care. You'd think with oak wilt being such a known issue, people would be more careful. Saving a few bucks now could cost them a whole tree later.

Wouldn't trade it for some bland box" really hits home. I used to think new builds were the goal, all clean and perfect. But finding those weird layers in an old house, even the ugly linoleum, gives it a story. That surprise wiring is a headache but it makes the place feel truly yours. You're right, the charm wins out every time.

Totally, grace89, I have one just like that.
