Each bench will look as different as each mirror will be different. It is easy to have your own original bench.

Wall Niche Part 1 of 2

A wall niche is kind of cubby hole carved into a stud wall, usually to house display shelving. These days, they are often seen as prefashioned inserts with an arch shape and Greco-Roman styling in higher-end housing, often with classical statuary within the niche sides. The niche shown here is a rather different animal. It is simply a wooden box that you slip into a hole in the wall and then trim out.

18V slide batteries

Very short use before depleting, long time to charge. I have two batteries one year old that will not charge at all anymore. I have two $38 doorstops. Reading Google reviews I see I am not alone in my dislike of your batteries. What can I do to replenish or replace these things. I've always loved your tools, but if this battery is what represents B and D, I'm off to visit DeWalt and Mikita.
