Would a queen bed skirt fit a full size mattress?
Short answer: No.
A U.S. full size mattress is 54 inches wide and 75 inches long.
A U.S. queen size mattress is 60 inches wide and 80 inches long.
There is a tiny possibility that a full fitted sheet that has extremely deep sides might have enough extra fabric to cover a queen, but it would not fit well, if at all, the corners would not match up at all, the points would be on the top edge of the mattress.

Check with your local building supply store before you begin to frame in your door, to verify the sizes that they have in stock.
>>> These are the actual "door slab" sizes. You're probably asking because you want to replace it. If you are, you need to measure the inside diameter of the jams where the door fits within - don't assume. Many doors of these sizes are up to a half inch smaller due to proprietary fitting (sealing and weatherstripping allowances / beveled jams and sills / even shifting or settling...). If you are replacing the whole door and jam - a 'pre-hung' (which I always recommend - especially on exterior doors) - you need to measure the rough opening of the studs behind the molding. Remove the interior trim and remove, or push in, any insulation. Take measurements in a few places (top bottom left right) and both diagonals, to check for square (every house can settle).
Good luck

What is the difference between a billiard table and a pool table?
All three are different kinds of cue games: Billiards, Pool, and snooker.
Billiard tables have larger pockets and use slightly larger balls than snooker. Other than that the tables are very similar in size and design. The smaller snooker balls are red, and yellow with white cue balls. They are not numbered like billiard balls and the game is entirely different than say 8 or 9 ball played in the USA. A billiard table can be converted to snooker because you can make the holes smaller to accommodate the snooker balls, but not vice-versa.
In snooker you keep score and after all the balls are potted it is the one with the highest score that wins. 147 is the maximum score but theoretically 155 is possible. With billiards an infinite score is theoretically possible. In pool it is ho pots all their balls and the black first that wins.

The Carpet is said to be imported to England from Turkey in the Tudor Times!!The first carpets were textiles laid on floors, then patterns were added and the face of the carpet was enhanced to be softer fuzzier probably inspired by skins and pelts. Before central heating, they added warmth and beauty and were easier on the feet.The Berber tribesmen made wool camel blankets that were adopted by the English & became the rage as "rugs" in Europe in the 1700's. Rugs are thought of as movable works of art and date back over 4,000 years in China. Carpet in the modern sense goes back to the weaving looms created by the competitive English & French.
In England it was the Axminster & Kidderminster looms and in France it was the Jacquard loom that made carpets more than rugs and greatly speed production when they hooked them up to a water wheel for power. from the 1700's to the 1940's woven & wool ruled the carpet business with names like Mohawk, Bigelow, Downs, Alexander Smith & others, mostly made in New York & Pennsylvania.
The Carpet business changed very little till After WWII a new technology evolved from the Chenille bedspread business called TUFTING. that combined with a housing boom and the invention of NYLON, created the modern carpet industry, based close to Dalton Ga.
$30 Billion in sales each year and 3 big players (Shaw, Mohawk and Beaulieu) with 20 more niche players pretty much sum up the current flooring industry.
The US Carpet industry is a rare beast in the domestic manufacturing category. US carpet makers expoert far more than we import and are still the premier tufted carpet makers in the world.
The industry association for the Carpet makers is called the Carpet and Rug Institute in Dalton Ga.

In the home decor section of a dedicated fabric shop. You can ask a store employee to help you find the proper fabric if you aren't sure what type of fabric you would like to use. Unfortunately, stores like WalMart that carry some sewing supplies will have cotton and flannel for making clothes and quilts (depending on the store) but won't have the specialty fabric like what you would want for a tablecloth.

What size screws do cabinet knobs use?
Usually, the new knobs that you purchase will come with screws. In general, the screws are 1 ½-2" screws. Check that this will work for your installation before running out to purchase other screws. Sometimes, the doors and drawers will need a different screw length. If the drawers have faces that are applied as a separate piece, they'll need screws that can pass through 1 ¼"-1 2/3" of wood or substrate. Since doors are usually made of ¾" lumber, a 1" screw will generally work just fine. If you need to, measure that depth of the face where the screw is going to insert. Keep in mind that you also have to check for the diameter of the screw, not just the length. If the screws that came with your knobs aren't the right length, the easiest thing to do is to figure out the length that you will need and then take the knob to a hardware store with you to make sure that you purchase screws with the right diameter.
