then run speaker wire horizontally along top of drywall where crown moulding can conseal the speaker wire.\n* Never use bare insulation in a garage to insulate the garage door = bare insulation is a fire hazard; install ignition barrier; definitely for homes WITH attached garages.\n\n#### History\n* [An Exciting History of Drywall](http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/07/an-exciting-history-of-drywall/493502/)\n* [Arthur Fischer, Inventor With More Patents Than Edison, Dies at 96](http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/09/business/international/artur-fischer-inventor-with-more-patents-than-edison-dies-at-96.html)\n\n___\n## To File\n* [How can I insulate my garage](http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/21454/how-can-i-insulate-my-garage/21460)\n* [What's the best way to keep my garage from freezing?](http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/17096/whats-the-best-way-to-keep-my-garage-from-freezing)\n* [How can I insulate my garage door](http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/3293/how-can-i-insulate-my-garage-door)\n* [Is garage door insulation beneficial in South Florida](http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/91550/is-garage-door-insulation-beneficial-in-south-florida)\n* [How to properly insulate a garage](http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/6473/how-to-properly-insulate-a-garage)\n* [Adhesives cheatsheet](https://d-lab.mit.edu/sites/default/files/D-Lab_Learn-It_Adhesives.pdf)\n* http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/77786/concrete-foundation-crack?s=1|2.2370\n* [Repairing and reinforcing broken plastic parts](http://woodgears.ca/misc/plastic_repair.html)\n* http://diy.stackexchange.com/questions/30926/what-types-of-electrical-outlets-are-found-in-a-typical-home-in-the-usa\n* [Taping between drywall](http://www.nytimes.com/1988/08/21/nyregion/taping-between-drywall-panels.html)\n* [Should I Fix Those Little Hairline Cracks in My Walls?](http://www.nytimes.com/2014/04/10/garden/should-i-fix-those-little-hairline-cracks-in-my-walls.html)\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseasmith%2Fdiy","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fseasmith%2Fdiy","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fseasmith%2Fdiy/lists"}
