  • My wife and I want to live in our home as long as we possibly can. With our elder years ahead of us, it's time to make preparations for aging in place. A new downstairs bathroom, with blocking for grab bars, is part of those preparations.

    Just last week, an engineer I was working with had to leave midday for an emergency, his dad fell due to a grab bar anchor failure

      Wow. That's terrible. But it really underscores the importance of good blocking. I appreciate your comment!

      I really appreciate this positive feedback! My channel is a mixed bag. Carpentry-related things lately. I'll be diverting my attention to yet another subject playlist in the near future, but will come back to carpentry tips as they come to mind. Thank you for the comment.

    Thanks! CA code asks to use 2x8, not sure which code you refer to to get 9" above the tub? I am looking for.
