| Need studfinder help |
| 09.30.04 (6:23 pm) [edit] |

I've been trying to find the correct location along the ceiling so I can install my pole. However, my studfinder keeps beeping all over the place, or if I find a spot where it may seem correct, I get no beeps when I run over it again. Then I thought I'd try the tapping on the ceiling method. I'm too afraid of bothering my neighbours, though. Every spot sounds hollow. I'm not even sure which way the studs are running. *sigh* Is there a secret trick to this??? And looking up at the ceiling has gotten me all nauseated. I thought I could have thrown up. Actually, I was about to go out and buy some medicine, but I decided to come instead in case I threw up in the car. I was also too afraid to cough, but finally I had to let it out. Good thing I didn't throw up (since I haven't had much to eat today), but I did experience dry heaves. That was not fun, and not to mention...my tongue cramped up. Maybe eating a banana will help ease my pain. I should check to see if I have any peppermint tea, too. |

OH. I was going to suggest wearing a mini skirt to a bar but I guess that isnt the kind of stud you want. However, showing a little leg around a construction site with a bunch of carpenters might get you a stud who knows his way around a stud finder.

Where am I to find a carpenter?? Why aren't there carpenters available like pizza places? I could call, and they could deliver!!

"I'm not even sure which way the studs are running." HAHA! Anyways, depending on whether or not you have a cheap studfinder, those use a magnet to detect nails or screws that hold stuff together. So if that part of the house was done with craploads of nails, it could throw the detector off...

I know... :( I am hoping mine will do a fairly good job. I will try again.
