This WebMD page suggests a few reasons, including "One published study reports on a miniature poodle that ate grass and then vomited every day for seven years. Three days after putting the dog on a high-fiber diet, the owner reported that the dog stopped eating grass entirely."
This WebMD page says that "dogs today seek out plants as an alternative food source. Most commonly the plant is grass". It goes on to say: "A dog will seek out a natural remedy for a gassy or upset stomach, and grass, it seems, may do the trick. When ingested, the grass blade tickles the throat and stomach lining; this sensation, in turn, may cause the dog to vomit, especially if the grass is gulped down rather than chewed."
"Although dogs don't typically graze on large amounts of grass like a cow, they may nibble on grass, chew on it for a while, and not throw up (an unwell dog will tend to gulp the grass down in big bites and then throw up).
This seems much more like why my dog eats (or bites at) grass.
"Whatever the reason may be, most experts see no danger in letting your dog eat grass. In fact, grass contains essential nutrients that a dog might crave, especially if they're on a commercial diet."
It seems to me that humans don't know why dogs do it. But that it is good for dogs. And no, I've never seen my dogs "drunk" from grass eating.

By the way, has anyone seen what dogs do with grass? Ok, it varies a bit by dog. Some eat grass (and throw it up later) while others simply bite at the grass (swallowing little or none and not throwing it up later).
The point is, why do they do it?
I postulate, with the second category of dog, that they are getting a hint, an "essence of grass", and using that as an intentional "almost at homeopathic levels" treatment.
Our dog memorizes where the grass patches are and will want to head down certain blocks just to get to that grass.
BTW, regular lawn grass doesn't work and they will shun it. The best grass is "weed" grass that grows wildly, is longer than lawn grass and the best of the best has a wide blade -- the grass is several times wider than lawn grass.

Those obstacles, which include swaying bridges and climbing walls, are arranged according to difficulty so that every participant can choose a course suited to their strength and abilities.

Shortly after the caravan of cars pulled up at the base of the high-ropes course, confusion turned to surprise when the couple strapped their two families into harnesses and paired each member off with a stranger on the other side. After a frantic run through the course's initial obstacles, the guests emerged from their shells and began to help each other tackle the challenges.

Danielle and Bill King with their parents began their high-ropes course and zipline park with a desire to bring together people of various ages and abilities for outdoor activity. The high-ropes course challenges visitors with more than 50 obstacles strewn across five levels, the highest suspended more than 50 feet above the ground and the lowest suspended above a pit of lava in the earth's core. Ziplines send climbers soaring through canopies and toward a giant swing, where they conquer their fear of heights by freefalling from an elevated platform.

Brush Maintenance for Dummies
This is slightly embarrassing for me to ask. Despite many years as a professional woodworker, I've never developed a good habit or routine for cleaning brushes after use. I've worked in some situations where brushes were used so frequently that they were stored in solvent. I've also worked for some shops that stuck with disposable brushes (ick). I now spray most finishes, but occasionally brush polyurethane, varnish or lacquer; when I do, I inevitably find myself unsure of how to clean the brush thoroughly enough that its bristles don't glue themselves together as they dry, without using a ridiculous amount of solvent. The poor brush usually sits around in a soup can of mineral spirits(or whatever solvent seems appropriate), stinking up my shop and getting misshapen.
I'd very much appreciate some remedial instruction, perhaps followed up with a few advanced strategies, on how to easily and effectively clean and store paint brushes that have been dipped in solvent-based finishes.
I use the following strategy:
Before dipping in finish, I always "prime" the brush by soaking in the appropriate solvent or thinner (mineral spirits in this case) and wiping off the excess with a rag. This inhibits the finish from wicking up into the ferrule.
After use:
* Clean off finish with a rag.
* Dip into can #1, that has been half-filled with mineral spirits. Slosh it around. You do not need to throw this solvent out right away and the solids will settle out over time (see below). Wipe brush with another rag.
* Dip brush into can #2 that likewise is half-full of mineral spirits. Slosh around and wipe as before.
* At this point, the brush is fairly clean but oily from the mineral spirits. Either wash out with dawn and water or, my preference, dip in can #4, half full of lacquer thinner that will cut through the oiliness.
* Spin the brush with a brush spinner, wrap in a cardboard brush cover or wrap with kraft paper and a rubber band. Set aside to dry.
Over time, can #1 will become so full of gunk that it's time to decant off the clear stuff into can #2. Put can #1 out where it can dry out and when solid, throw in the trash. Promote can #2 to be the new can #1 and start a fresh can #2. You can also have a can #3 that is a third rinse can if you wish.
If the brush, despite your efforts, get cruddy, soak a bunch of them overnight in NMP-based paint stripper. The next day, work out the crud with a brush comb, rinse and you're good to go. There are also brush cleaners that are pretty much a soup of every solvent and a few strippers that you can use instead of the NMP stripper. But I find it noxious and pretty strong.
I clean the brush with the appropriate solvent, generally water or mineral spirits, wire-brushing the bristles if necessary, shake it out, brush it out on cardboard or scrap wood, wrap the bristles in cotton cloth or paper towel, secure it with a rubber band and hang it up.
You need to use enough clean solvent and flexing action to do a good job of rinsing and squeezing the paint, etc, out of the bristles and brush reservoir. Wrapping the bristles afterward will keep them from looking like a bad hair day the next time you go to use it, and also keep stray sawdust off of them.
When I remember to do this, a good, or even mediocre, brush will last me 10 years of intermittant use.
If I've let the brush harden, I start the above process with an overnight soak in brush cleaner (I use Kwickeeze, among others)
I use Purdy brushes, man made fiber as a rule. You can use natural fiber, but the newer man made fibers allow smoother appplication and more thorough cleaning. I am careful to never load the brush more than an inch up from the tips of the bristles. (dipping the brush in thinner and twirling out the excess prior to loading the first time helps initial loading.) If the ambient temperatures are high or the job takes more than 20 minutes or so, I sometimes rinse briefly periodically(new thinner)---that keeps the material from drying in the bristles and makes final cleaning easier and more thorough.
I wash the brush four times.
1st wash----previously used more than once thinner(stored in a thinner jug with no label. Pour this thinner back into the jug and let solids precipitate out. Since I have several of these jugs, I might wash the brush twice.
2d wash---thinner used only once previously. Stored in a thinner jug with 1/2 the label cut off. Pour this thinner into no label jug when finished.
3d wash---new thinner. Pour this thinner into 1/2 label bottle when done.
4th wash---liquid dish detergeant(Dawn, cause that is what we use) and sling the brush dry.
Shape the bristles and hang vertically until dry, recase and store hanging.
I have three Purdy brushes more than seven years old that are still in good shape.
Thanks for all of the thoughts. I see where I've been going wrong; I've been in denial about the need to keep several cans of dirty solvent on hand. Too much to hope for, I guess.
What sorts of solvent containers do you find work well? Also, what do you do with the solvent when it gets too contaminated for brush cleaning?

The station's major refurbishment plan has just been finished, and the layout is much better now. They've also updated the seating areas, and created a Passenger Lounge with a coffee shop in which is great place to wait if there's train delays. Better toilets, more ticket machines, and the shops also had a refit, so now it's a great place to get a coffee before catching your train.
Tip: If you are waiting for a train on before the gates, and feel hungry try the open late supermarket/corner shop just outside, its much cheaper than in the station. They are currently renovating the station so the access should be a little different and modern while keeping the great roof over the trains later in 2013.

Screaming from the heart of California with an unrelenting vengeance, Fresno, CA-based REPUBLIK mixes elements of rock, hardcore and metal as they debut their official single "Capture the Flag" from their newest EP 'Anthems' released globally 11/22/2013. A conscious and calculated step up from their 2009 full-length debut, "Capture the Flag" provides a punishing take on the foundations of American society, layering blistering lyrics against a ground-shaking sonic attack of rock and metal.
As has always been the idea with Republik's writing though, the music is never without a message. Their 2009 full-length debut 'For Which We Stand' is a brutally honest album given to blunt and unapologetic observations of American social and political failures. And "Capture The Flag" keeps that integrity in full force while expanding on the unique 'rant and scream' signatures of 'F.W.W.S.' Seeming to resonate throughout the new EP 'Anthems' is the urgency for people to stand up against a government and corporate powers that see and treat people as numbers- pawns in a never-ending chess game that is quickly heading towards a once-and-for-all faceoff in the fight for basic survival.
For vocalist Ben Lowrey, guitarist Leo Ceja, bassist Joey C.A Garcia and drummer Jason Frost, "Capture The Flag" is the new and undeniable anthem for the masses that stand with them in the fight against a system of lies & corruption as the Resistance (an appropriate name given to their fan base) leads the charge. Stand with them or step aside- Republik and the Resistance are coming!

Boy Boards Plane To Vegas At MSP Without Ticket
A 9-year-old Minneapolis boy was able to get through security and onto a plane at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport without a ticket, an airport spokesman said Sunday. Security officials screened the boy at airport shortly after 10:30 a.m. Thursday, Metropolitan Airports Commission spokesman Patrick Hogan said. The boy then boarded Delta Flight 1651, which left for Las Vegas at 11:15 a.m. The flight was not full, Hogan said, and the flight crew became suspicious midflight because the boy was not on their list of unattended minors. The crew contacted Las Vegas police, who met them upon landing and transferred the boy to child protection services, Hogan said.

"Sanofi was a good learning experience overall, but the company morale has been lacking since 2006. "

I worked at Sanofi-Aventis
Sanofi had incredible benefits and good training.
The company morale has been terrible since 2006. Many reps are underutilized and feel non- productive since there are still so many reps in each area.
It is great they are doing voluntary severances now, as there are many disgruntled workers and they looking for a way out. Reps should feel more accountability in their territories--there are still way too many reps in each territory, even the diabetes division. Less reps would mean more productivity and more accountability.

I have been working at Sanofi-AventisPros
Great benefits
Modern environment
Central locationCons
Management does not seem to know what they are doing day to day as well as overall
Top Management making too many changes at the same time without asking for examples or working through real pilot periods where statistics and analysis govern keeping or dumping that strategy
Mergers occur without any reassurance for growth
Top producers are being lost to other competing companies while the mediocre performers are kept simply because they hold a doctorate degree
Quality is suffering due to the numerous and sudden changes in policy and procedure -as soon as the latest policy is adapted another new one is already being rolled out
If direct management does know what is going on they do not tell staff or wait until the change is already rolled out which causes mistrust and lack of respectAdvice to ManagementAdvice
Insist on true Pilot Periods before committing to a vendor prescribed plan...don't pay in full until you know the plan works
Listen to the leaders and top producers feedback during pilot periods
Insist on quality performance and give employees and contractors the tools to perform their job perfectly and consistently.
Communicate changes quickly and personally with teams and other managementDoesn't RecommendNo opinion of CEO

Morale is very low and pressure is high. So many people have been let go that the remaining employees are doing the work of three. Neither promotions nor firings seem to be based on talent, knowledge, or accomplishments. HR changes its review process and approach every year.Doesn't RecommendNo opinion of CEO

japanese weeping cherry
I bought two (Prunus subhirtella pendula) at Lowes because it said they would grow only 12' by 12'. I have read everything I can on the net about them and found that they grow 20' to 30'. One site said that their are some types that can be smaller. Does anyone have any experience with this tree?
I have one...I have had it for about 15 years now, it was a mothers Day gift......it was prolly 15 ft tall when I got it....and now it is prolly bout 20ish....it has mostly got wider rather than taller but it isn't that wide either...it is a beautiful tree when it blooms..that is if the frost doesn't get it in the spring...but you do need each year to be diligent about triming of the sucker growth from the middle or it will stop weeping quickly and grow large. They say anything upright out of the middle should be cut off...great tree, you will love it!
We planted a Japanese weeping cherry about 15 years ago. This picture shows how large it has gotten. BTW The center branches are not straight- but are also weeping. There is one that is at least 30+ years old in the neighborhood and it is taller yet. HTH thought a photo would give a sense of scale. well except the stupid web wont let me post a thumbnail like I do on the kitchen forum. any clues as to why??? Sue
PLEASE tell me when you bought that tree it didn't say it would grow 12'x12'! That is a huge tree and most beautiful. I bet a site to see in bloom too. I wanted a small blooming tree (or 2) to go along with the cottage look I am trying to create. I was concerned about too much shade but if my tree grew that large I need to be concerned that my house would just disapear. Thanks, Molly
No, don't worry it didn't say 12x12 on the tag, but it did grow bigger than we thought. As a matter of fact of the three on the street- it is by far the tallest and fattest. It does get full sun all afternoon. And I love it when it blooms. Every couple of years, the masses of daffodils under it bloom at the same time and it is wonderful. Wish I had a better photo.Sue
Oooo so that's what I have to look forward too, love it! I purchased one at Lowes also and it's been thriving for almost 4 months now (yeah I know, February is not tree planting time, whatever.) but you don't really "envision" what 20+' of tree looks like. I'm really glad I stuck it in the corner I did, not next to anything...

It was music to Grand Forks residents' ears, and a tune that local taxpayers had been waiting a long time to hear:
"The Alerus Center in Grand Forks has experienced a sharp spike in revenue growth the past two years, leading the center to upgrade facilities and consider expansion, according to officials there," Herald staff writer Charly Haley reported last week.

the room, the public areas, the restaurant
dinner service a bit ragged, but i was forewarned that it was the waiter's first time...
staff assistance
Not as convenient to downtown
Nice pool area,24hr.coffee,location
At this time of year most of businesses closed. Late opening in connected restraunts.
When I checked in it was explained that this was a Clarion once upon a time. As this was a business trip I did not even take a peek at the pool. I checked in late and lefty early...Room was nice, clean and quiet. Its a waterpark mid week...
Wished they offered free breakfast as this time of year its a ghost town there...
I always like staying here, great rooms, food and service!
Room was very nice and clean. Restraurant within. Staff friendly and accomodating. Free parking. Hotel had all the ammenities I was looking for.
Restraurant food was mediocre. Location (uptown in a big city).
Recently remodeled. Cozy
The bed was supposed to be a queen size but it was a standard.
Clean and very nice staff
Breakfast room was small and in lower level
The staff were great and very helpful.
The windows in the rooms went into a hallway, this took getting use to because it always looked sunny outside.
Complimentary Breakfast is great and you can make pancakes by yourself. It's convenient to Tanger Outlet.
No additional public space.
Safe, & clean
Great clerk at checkin
Breakfast was awful. We ate next door at Perkins the second day. No attendant to clean up. By 8 am no fruit, no corn flakes, no waffle batter. Place was filthy. No clean tables. Children running up and down the hall all night. Also, no elevator?
For resting place the price was great. The room was spacious and clean.
The location was great. The staff in the office were great.
Found a 3 inch by 3 inch piece of pizza behind the TV. TV wouldn't work. Mouse droppings on sink counter. Also no free internet and no continental breakfast. There was free parking.
Room was very nice. Comfy pillow and comforter. Coffee was good!
The morning breakfasts were really great! The housekeeping staff were very friendly and one of the staff even apologized to me for forgetting to leave wash cloths one of the days. Now that is service!!!
How convenient it was to business to go to eat
It didn't have a hot tub or a spa.Hard to understand the front Desk People. Housekeeping was late on cleaning our room the next morning.Pool water was cold.Continental breakfast not a good section.
We were looking for somewhere clean and comfortable to crash on our way from SD to OH. Hotel definitely succeeded on those two fronts. Breakfast was cheap but would expect anything else?
The hotel was clean, the breakfast was good, the staff was friendly and helpful. We had no issues.
Quiet. Clean. Good sized room.
Close to resturants
I thought I booked a Howard Johnson but couldn't find horribly to learn that it had bought by motel 6. No sign no email stating this important information. Not happy
Here's why:
We're not the seller
At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you
Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time?
Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

Anderson exterior trim kit??
Hi All, we are putting in new Anderson A Series windows in a costal location so durability is important.
Anyone have any experience with Anderson's exterior trim kits? Seems like a big labor savings potential but wonder if it would be worth the material cost increase over PVC.
Here is a link that might be useful: Anderson Exterior Trim
Are you saying that you will be covering PVC trim with these?
These kits are a nice coil stock and finish than can normally be duplicated with coil and a break.
If you are doing it for finish longevity, probably a good idea. If you are doing it to protect the PVC trim, I am not sure it is required.
It depends what you mean by PVC. There is solid PVC, or PVC coated aluminum. Factory supplied trim kits offer excellent fit and finish, but a skilled craftsman can do beautiful work with the other products as well. On some homes, the factory kits can be more hassle than they are worth (in addition to the added $$$)
The kits can also be a huge time saver s well, the last Eagle one I did ran about $90, that is about the same as wrapping in aluminum and instead of thin aluminum coil over wood that is prone to rot you get an extruded casing that even the best brake person can't match.The Marvin and Eagle kits are made from Aluminum and the Anderson kits are made from Fibrex which I don't feel is as good.
I agree about the fit and finish Todd, but at a cost of $90 that is a bit more than the cost for a wrap job. For me, factory Marvin kit installed to my customer is about $150, where a trim wrap is $70... Whether that is worth the difference or not depends on the person.
What exactly is the exterior trim kit? I am having to make a decision very soon regarding azek trim on standard sized ultimate clad or factory applied brick mold trim on custom sized windows. I have been told that the custom sized with the brickmoldcasing trim will be costing much , much more, so am very interested in this "trim kit" .
It is made for standard sized ANDERSEN windows from Fibrex. As been said several times standard size or custom size Marvin is the same price, if your purchasing Marvin Clad windows you need to use Marvin extruded Aluminum Brickmold of you want it attached or you can use anybodies Brickmold in the field but using an Andersen trim kit would not be a solution to your trim issues at all!
My own comments were regarding factory trim kits in general, didn't mean to cause any confusion. As MWM said, and Andersen trim kit won't work for Marvin windows, and the Marvin extruded aluminum brickmold is what it is. Nice product IMO... I know this was discussed on another thread, but we really can't say why your contractor is telling you that it is not available for some of your windows. If you are in doubt, speak to Marvin directly for clarification.
If you are doing full frame replacements You'd typically would have to put up some wood trim to put the aluminum coil over.Using a "factory trim kit" would replace the need for adding the wood.Though no one said anything about adding wood it wood be needed.So That wood bring the cost to about $105 on the low side.Marvin Brick mold trim kit with sill from on a 28x70 window is $130 without mark-up for me.
I pay subs more than $60 for wraps and $90 may be a bit more but now your range has gone to $70-$80, so were not to far off.
The azec trim will look cheap in comparison to a trim kit. It will be hard to get a proper reveal even with 5/4. It will not have any profile unless you mill it or build it out. There will be nail holes to fil, joints to glued and would have to be painted unless it is left white.You would also need a top notch installation to come close to the trim kits.I think in the end the Azec would cost a bit more and the trim kit would an almost fool proof.
You pay out $60 for a single wrap!? Holy cow!!! No wonder we are not on the same page here. I've already mentioned what I charge for both options and I'm not going to get into my costs, but I pay out significantly less than $60 per window, including materials. Our rate is one of the fairer rates in town at that. I know some of the cut-rate dealers pay out $25 or $30.
On most older homes that get full tearouts, we'll reuse the brick mold if it is in good shape and its going to be capped anyway. No extra cost there ;)
This post was edited by HomeSealed on Fri, Jan 11, 13 at 9:37
$60 is on the low side for a sub here, even the hacks and uninsured or cash jobs charge more than $30. It is very difficult as well to find a real good aluminum guy, I only have one guy that can handle the complicated wraps.I rarely do any brick mold, most is wide trim with backband and backband with crown mold. Most are in stucco, asbestos shakes, ect.. I can find many that do brick mold, but anything complicated they don't want take the time or just can't do it.
I have since received yet another quote including the clad brickmoldcasing casing .....this quote on custom windows. The price was not very much more for the windows, but I expected the installation fee , which was quite large from this company to go down as these windows being custom, would match the present windows in size. Thus, be less expensive to install. This quote wants over a thousand per window to install. What is the problem here ? I live in MA, and am wondering if Marvin has seen us coming. our house is a plain farm house type, built in '79 , so no lead paint anywhere. The present windows are two picture windows , two casement that we are changing to double hung (cheaper) , one awning , and one large double hung with a half circle installed directly above .....looks like one window. Husband thought the installation should be around two to five hundred a window, but as I stated, installation was stated at $6775.00.
Marvin does NOT sell nor install windows to homeowners. You are dealing with a Marvin dealer who does installs. As has been mentioned on your posts many times if you do not like the prices your being quoted call another dealer or buy the windows and hire an independent contractor to install. You are yet to give any details about your installation details or pictures from what I recall so there is not really anyway we ca tell you any sort of idea if that is expensive or not. You live in an area where there sound be other Marvin dealers call them or a Kolbe dealer!
I am waiting for a Kolbe estimate. I will try and take pictures tomorrow. The windows are just plain windows that we are replacing . The outside of the house is clapboards two thirds of the way up and cedar shingles from there to the top......nothing unusual anywhere, which is why we are so surprised at the quote. The inside of the windows is trimmed with flat casing, nothing unusual there either.The only unusual windowis the large double hung with the semi circle above, but both estimates have said they could deal with it.I am afraid that using our own contractor will negate Marvin's warranty.
As I said, I will try to post a picture tomorrow.
I repeat Marvin DOES not install. You will not negate any warranty from Marvin or any other window manufacturer by having you contractor install your windows. Everything I am saying either I or another of the esteemed window gurus on this site have told you at least once. I understand your trying to be thorough but your asking the same thing over and over again. Marvin is about the best wood window you can buy, Kolbe is a very close second if you do not like the install prices find someone else to quote on the install. ONE MORE TIME NEITHER KOLBE NOR MARVIN INSTALL, THE FACTORY WILL NOT WARRANTY INSTALLATION FROM ANYONE YOU ARE DEALING WITH A DEALER THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES WHO WILL WARRANTY THEIR INSTALLATION!!!!
Thank you. I get it. I have gotten it from the beginning ....I was just not wording it in the correct way. I should have been saying, THE MARVIN DEALER. I was getting the quote from. Actually, I have gotten two quotes from two Marvin dealers. The first , as I stated would not quote me an installation fee. The second quote from the second Marvin dealer, was the quote I told you. I am waiting for a quote from a kolbe dealer who has told me up front that he would recommend a contractor, but Kolbe does not have their own installers. That was nice of him to let us know up front . I do appreciate all your help and honestly was not not hearing you....it was a misunderstanding based on my not using the correct word, I.e. "dealer".
Thank you,
I'm somewhat confused now that you are saying that you spoke to a Kolbe dealer that is recommending a contractor? So I assume all of this confusion is because you are purchasing the windows yourself through a distributor, and then hiring a separate contractor to install them? While that is an option, it is not advisable IMO. Anytime that you can consolidate the number of parties that you are dealing with, that is a good thing. It creates more accountability should any issues arise, and it is fewer "hands in the cookie jar", which should result in better pricing. Less opportunity for miscommunication as well. My recommendation is to hire ONE contractor/dealer that will sell you the windows INSTALLED. There are plenty of companies that will do this with either of those products that you are looking at, and in fact, true window installation specialty companies work almost exclusively in this manner.
Given the troubles that you've had, I would advise getting 2-3 quotes from window companies on the full project, INSTALLED, so that way you can compare apples to apples. I'd also look past any break-down of product vs labor. One company might price their services with the profit built into the product sale, and another built into the installation. Some will not even offer a breakdown... Ultimately, the final cost is all that matters.
I agree completely my suggesting a GC to install was due to the fact that the Marvin dealers she was speaking with seemed to not be able to help her with what she was looking to accomplish and seemingly pushing her towards other products. if I made it seem like I was pushing her that way that was not my intent it just seems to be getting a little convoluted as she is asking advice on her own threads, other peoples threads and as she stated not using the proper terminology which is not helping either and I came across a little strong as it seemed like she was not getting what was being told to her by myself, you and the others on the site.

Sorry to be cross posting. I think I have mastered picture adding. This is one of the windows we are replacing. I just talked to Kolbe here in MA and they told me that they only have their own installers for some of their sliding doors . They do recommend some contractors for window installation. One of the people they recommend has done work for us before , so.... this should simplify this part of our mess , anyway.There is another picture in my cross thread.
Once again, I thank you and my husband thanks you !
Hello home sealed and mill workman,
I went to a second Marvin dealer because the first Marvin dealer refused to give an installation price. The second dealer did give us an installation price that I quoted here above. The Kolbe nearest dealer , who is some distance away told me that they do not do their own installations and offered to give us some contractors names. They are the only Kolbe dealer within the New England area, I believe. I wll double check on that now.
I have added pictures to my last cross post. maybe they will clarify some of my questions.Thanks again!
I see what you're saying MWM, I didn't even realize that I was saying anything contradictory to be honest. These two threads have my head spinning, lol...
I think that part of the confusion is simply in the terminology being used. For the reference of anyone reading this, a "dealer" could either refer to a distributor that simply purchases a product to sell to the public or contractors such as ABC supply or Home Depot, or it could refer to a contractor/installation company that buys direct from the manufacturer, and then sells an "INSTALLED" product/service package to the consumer. I think that term has been used in both ways here which caused some confusion.... at least for me it did, lol.
Yes, exactly, but to add to the confusion, one of the Marvin Dealers , who IS a direct manufacturer dealer said they could NOT do the installation and suggested they would recommend using our own contractor. All of this is confusing to us and making us wonder how expensive these things are. Also, the second Marvin direct dealer just emailed me and told me prices go up next week and we better hurry and decide.
Update....Kolbe windows came in at a higher price than the Marvin's in the extruded aluminum exterior, primed interior. Even Kolbe's painted exterior with their special 10 year guaranteed paint was more than the Marvin clad. We are surprised at this . Now we need to decide whether we can do this job; windows are VERY expensive .
The main advantage to wood is that it can be stained on the inside. Sice you are pricing these out as primed you may want look at other options. The Eagle window by Anderson is another viable option in wood. Loewen is another nice wood window but can be expensive as well.
Cleary Millwork is the only dealer in this area , and they are some distance away. They sent me to another company , Horner construction, who sent me to a sales rep. So, I guess all these people involved sends the price up. I did call Kolbe and they sent me back to the original people , Cleary.
At this point, we are inclined to go with Marvin......the second quote with the very high installation price and try to work with them some more on seeing what we can do to get the price down. We live near the ocean, and we need to see if that affects warranties too.
We are looking at the Marvin and Kolbe clad as we are retired and don't want to do this again....both of these companies have an exterior clad color that matches our other windows and trim color pretty closely and would save us having to pay to paint these windows over the next ten or so years. That's important to us. They both , Kolbe and Marvin, also offer primed interior, also important . Vinyl was out of the question for us, looks wise, and the Fibrex/wood options didn't work color wise with the remaining windows.

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! Both CO2 tanks are in perfect shape, the chest freezer could hold 5 kegs with a collar. I never asked the guy how big the tanks were, so I was suprised when they weren'r 5 pounders. I was even more suprised when they were mostly full.
This is an obcession. I now have 11 primaries to work with & 18 kegs. *Gloat*
Brewing tonight & into tommorow. Not gonna stop till I fill all the new stuff up with the beautiful nector. Planning a Midas touch Clone, a tripple, a blueberry wine, a sweet mead, and whatever othe rbeer suits my fancy when I get to it.
Happy Brewer, doot doot.
We can't officially declare it a 'score' until you cough up on the cost. Spill it.
ogh yeah.. forgot that.
It was two diffrent buys, total for both scores was 500 smackaroos. I figure the Co2 tanks & the chest freezer are worth at least that much.
my apologies.
Geez, you backwoods rednecks sure know how to score some stuff. You should have sent those 500 smackers to me.
Let me be the first to say....you suck!
shceky, thanks. the first (the beer stuff) was from a frat guy who got married & new SWMBO said get rid of the stuff. I pormised him I'ddrop him some homebrew off when I was back in his town.
The second was from an older fellow who just decided it was time to hang up the wine making.
nurmey... naw, say it aint so!
Silly Zac, it only means we love you and are jealous of your good score.
shecky, she wasn't there when we got there, but she arrived after work while we were there. This woman was EPIC. I mean EPIC. Long & tall & blonde. I would consider quitting brewing if she told me to.
They were both yankees tho, so she couldn't have been all that!
Naw, all kidding aside, pretty cool people. The brewing equipment was from a group of old frat guys & he wasn't the primary brewer, but as the others in the group moved away or quit brewing, he ended up with the equipment. They only brewed extracts, and the few we sampled, it wasn't anything more than you would have expected out of frat guys. This guy & his SWMBO were both school teachers, so they get a thumbs up from me.
Nurmey, I had been burning up craigslist for months in anticiptation of a good deal. Finally found it!!!!
