Review - Sonin 50218 Digital Moisture Meter
My new favourite toy is Sonin 50218 Digital Moisture Meter.
I used few different moisture meters before, but this is the best one in my opinion. Unlike many other meters it is suitable formost surfaces – plaster, brick, concrete, hardwood and softwood timber. It’s compact and easy touse. It should measure a very wide range of moisture - from 0% to 40%. But I got a reading of 41% today.
Sydney received so much rainfall lately – it’s disturbing! Everysecond property has some water damage, and we repair water damaged areas almostdaily. So I will use my little Sonin 50218 a lot!

Taking All-White Interior to the Extreme
All white
interiors are very popular. But this one is what I call the Extreme White!
“Klaus
Biesenbach, director of MoMa’s PS1, loves a vacuum. For years, he lived in a
nearly empty apartment on the Lower East Side. Last summer, he lent the place
to an artist friend, who brought in a sofa, table and chairs and painted the
whole place white, even the TV.
Mr. Biesenbach was more amused than irritated. He considered his friend’s gesture a performance piece.
He tends to
avoid the sofa, however, and has plans to jettison it. Since it is more story
than object, he said, “the story allows you to throw it out because you are not
throwing out an object but ending a story.”
The microwave and espresso machine, with their coat of white house paint, no longer function. Mr. Biesenbach never used them anyway.
Mr. Biesenbach was happy his friend did not paint the TV screen or the glass in his windows. “He honored the image,” he said."
