You need to have your foundation looked at by a professional. You have a settlement problem. Check the yellow pages for Engineers, Structural or Engineers, Foundation.

Basements, Attics and Crawl Spaces
Bar Plans

As any self-respecting male home owner... (at least ones without kids), I'm putting a bar in my basement. I'm playing with the idea of a glass block front to the bar... think it'll go very well with the glass block windows and partition walls. Anyone have a good source for bar plans? A book, magazine or even online source would help a lot when designing this bar. Thanks in advance. -scott

other methods for framing a door

Ran into a problem with framing a small service closet. I thought I had plenty of room on the side wall to frame in 24 inch bi-fold door. Well, by the time I will put in the king studs, jack studs allow for drywall etc. I ran out of room to be able to frame a proper outside corner for the next wall. My question is : are there any other methods to frame a door without using a jack stud. Maybe using a bracket for the header? I just don't want to have to take down the one wall and move it out to make room. Any suggestions would be appreciated Thanks Griff
