The official CAJ rants thread

So I'm buying all the accessories and junk I need for the new addition on my house. As I'm browsing bathroom towel holders, I notice they're all either 18" or 24". With studs being 16" on center, why don't they make 32" towel holders? Do they just expect you to use drywall anchors?

Swing arm towel holder ?

Most good GC’s know to add 2x6 blocking between studs where there are things like this, grab bars, and cabinets. If the GWB isn’t installed yet than just add blocking. If it is than use a strap toggle bolt for the one side that misses a stud. Missing blocking by the GC is a noob mistake on their part.

Yeah, I've got Togglers...those things are awesome. I'm just wondering why they don't make anything to line up with studs.

Is this the 8 hot dogs in a pack vs 10 hot dog buns to a pack argument?

Funny, that's the same analogy I talked about with my co-worker

NO! I am NOT turning off my ad blocker OR whitelisting your site just out of principle.
