S01E13 Spray-Painting; Chimney Dampers; What Is It?; Splitting Logs

2003-01-02

In the loft, Jim showcases various paint sprayers and demonstrates the correct method for using a spray painter to apply paint to a shutter. Meanwhile, Steve enlists chimney specialist Mark Schaub to help replace a faulty fireplace damper for a homeowner. Back in the loft, Steve, Tom, Roger, and Richard inspect two unfamiliar items, attempting to figure out their purposes. Later, Steve and Roger step outside to illustrate different techniques for splitting logs for firewood.
