sometimes in an older house the mud sill, this is the mud sill right here. this is the stud. all right and here's the concrete. you see that the mud sill is actually wider than the stud. good god, what do you do? you need to nail down new sill pieces that are flush with the stud. if your stud is a 2 by 4, then you use a 4 inch sill piece you stick it between the studs right in there and nail it down. to be conservative i recommend 6, 10 penny common nails per sill piece. to nail your new sill piece down to the mud sill. all right. you need to do that every where. and if there is an -- well -- this is an old house here's an existing bolt you have to drill a hole in the new sill piece to fit over the 2 sills together. after you have nailed the new sill piece at each space to the mud sill, then it's time to install the anchor bolt. you drill through both sills and down into the concrete. you need to use a slightly longer anchor bolt for that type of application. >> other thing was probably i got ahead of myself. when i talked about marking the holes for the anchor bolts. if you
