The Wrong Wood Swelled Up
We have a wooden fence, which in turn, has a wooden gate. Well, let me tell you, since it rained the other day, the wood on the wooden gate has swollen and…hey, it’s raining again and I just had this idea that if rain swells wood that if I go outside into the rain…I’ll be back in a few minutes…
I'm back....
Darn. Seemed like a good idea at the time, but you know (or, probably could figure out) I always did have trouble with extrapolation. Anyhow, let’s get back to the fence problem. The gate won’t close. I would like to fix it myself if for no other reason than I could post it in the “Share My FIRE Milestones” thread.
I’m not a DIY guy, so I would need a tool that won’t cause me injury, is easy to use, is inexpensive and that I can buy at Home Depot.
Any ideas?
