Reply to comment by Spinaccio in Heavy load mounted on aerated concrete blocks. Need advice on if I'm doing the right thing. by T3zcat
Thanks for the suggestion, I will say that from the experience I've had so far the aerated concrete is very different from actual concrete.

That's what I'm leaning towards. I just need to get after it.

Just get the right colour spackle. For tiny holes you don't need to sand prime or paint.

Reply to comment by Only-Replacement-198 in Ducting for under cabinet range hood, how to offset to get by stud? by ninian1927
You're probably right, I figured if I was going to do it may as well future proof myself. The range hood I'm looking at has a 600cfm or 900cfm option. I figured I may as well go with the highest.

None taken! Actually, this bathroom is ten years old. The building was completed in 2009 and every corner was cut in the finishing.

I have a gas range, it's 44,000BTUs. Perhaps you're right. The range maxes out at 900cfm but I imagine only having it on level 1/2 most of the time. I could go down to the 600cfm option and use 6 inch. I may or may not still hit the stud but would have to do some cutting to see.

Ha, it's funny you say this -- that's basically how our condo was built. Terrible finishing all around.

Because if you’re a renter:
- you don’t even know that joint compound exists or why it’s important to you
- you don’t want to spend time to go get some
- you don’t want to pay for it
- you don’t want to store the 99% that you don’t use
Toothpaste works for small holes, and within 3 minutes start to end, $.03 worth of toothpaste you’re done. The landlord will likely paint the wall before the next renter further strengthening the wall.

But can you brush your teeth with it?

There are kits specifically for this (Laminate flooring repait kit). Basically, you get an array of wax-ish kindof bars, in all different colors. You are supposed to mix and match them to match your laminate. Basically, they feel a bit like candles I guess? Kits come with a melter, you melt colors together, on top of eachother until it maches yout laminate. You finish by lightly sanding it an bam. Best result, you see nothing. (though I needed a test laminate piece, damaged it on purpose and tested it on it to get the right color).
I could link / send pic of the one I bought but 1) not in the US and 2) uhm duno if I can link or add picture?

Just so you know it's code to install a UL listed microwave with an integral fan over the stove. So you could in theory just install a new one.
How big is your stove to warrant an 8" exhaust? What's the CFM? It sounds like you're oversizing.
