Thanks KLS. Yes the years of re-repair have cost big bucks

V no wonder you are divorced. Someone dares point out you may be
falible and you bail. Great partner.

I myself have been married to this sweet man that can't fix **** for 27
years. He does other things quite well indeed (maybe the other thing
was actually your "short" coming) He actually told me not to water my
newly planted tomato plants for 2 weeks because they would grow stonger
by forming a better root system looking for moisture. they died.
next year I watered them when he wasn't looking. saves on arguements

In the past I would give my opinion on one of his far out procedures,
he would do it his way anyway, then apologize later when it fell apart.
I've found that finding proof for him mkes it easier for him to skip
the screw up step. I found info here and several other professional
masonery sites that agree with Mr Weeks the first responder to my
question. Besides, experts do sometimes respond on this site.

But V maybe someday you will find a deaf mute with no brains that
agrees to your every thought
