Anything specific? I do all my own home upgrades. Flooring, electrical, plumbing, drywall, HVAC, and painting.

next will be the man cave I will prolly need to do some sheet rock and/or patchwork in some spots, and could also use something on electricity since I will need to install better lighting and it looks like stuff out there was half assed to begin with. lastly anything thats good for some basic maintenance and things to watch out for. Some projects I think I have the skill to do but just need to knowledge and some insight since I woul dprefer doing more of this stuff myself too. |

Home Depot has a fantastic book - or, you can get more specific for their 1-2-3 books.
Ikea also has a great layout program on their site for kitchens and bathrooms.

Fun stuff but there's also some serious stuff too. There's a nice kitchen counter tiling how to.

I have the home depot and the black and decker books, and the B&D ones are much better. More pics, more instuctions, and more detail.
