yep Nothing to do with pvc airlines. My Quincy on top of a 120g tank is heavy but it isn't 1000#.

I think you will reap the results of how good your job is based on the workmanship applied to the prep and placement of either more so than the difference in the product. A well placed asphalt will still be in great shape 20 years out as it cracks if it is sealed you will get better results by...

Radial Arm Saw - when I see 'electronic' in the name I think it won't be as robust and was rugged as what I inherrited from my dad. And for $50 to cut off an old cord and then rewire for a new cord wouldn't be the end of my world.

Like so many other words in the English language the meanings can evolve over time. But a little bit of research suggests the jigsaw-sabre saw debate here is only partly right. The jigsaw apparently came about when some guy was monkeying with his wife's toys - he stuck a saw blade into his...

You mentioned ag land. Here we would not want to walk into the building authority with a 'garage' plan complete with a lift drawn-in for some of the ag properties depending on the muni and land reserve office you had to deal with. The wrong person might get the idea you weren't intending to use...

My auto drain works off of pressure differential so it is air powered not wifi or electrical.

It's always fun putting up walls when you look off in the distance and see a storm blowing in. The race is on to get things up and braced and braced and then clear out of the way in case you didn't get enough bracing on. Other than getting hit with 'normal' storms for the region winds or storms...

I picked up some supplies from Home Depot. No pictures, but when my wife does the bank rec for the month she'll be able to verify I was there about the time of this posting.

A lot of the 12" toilets I have worked with will fit. Do not shim out of level. 10" seem to be more prevalent within my circles in my corner of the continent. There are offset flanges available so that if the 12" toilet you pick needs more space you will be able to fit it without shimming and...

Sellers will also be aware of the 'temporary drop' and likely won't be keen on selling during that period if they don't have to. Often times those drops aren't huge in the overall price and between now and then the appreciation/inflation on values may climb bringing the price during the drop...

I would consider framing off of a row of blocks but leaving the slab as my floor. If water ingress is an issue then you're left with either framing a floor above the slab and going up from there or placing a slab on top of the existing concrete that would raise everything up so that water on the...

The quick connect couplings have o rings too. Auto parts stores generally have a large selection in stock and can usually get a bunch of their non-stock sizes in within the day or next day depending on when you are there. Another source could be a Fastenal branch.

Pex A kink - Heat with heat gun till clear and let cool naturally = good to go.

If you are in the market for used you might just be a little early on the looking market. With a number of businesses predicted to fail you may find in some regions a good supply in the not too distant future.

If they had 'issues' your more might only be 1/4"

Generally when I have a tight spot I'm reaching for my M12 not my full sized recip saws. I've burned through a couple M12's over the years and recently replaced the last one with the Fuel model. Noticable uptick in performance but also not as compact feeling for tight, awkward areas, still...

Milwaukee Fastback is my in the pocket knife. But occasionally I still revert back to my previous goto the Olaf H1 it takes the thicker snap off blades. Last time I had to buy some blades for my Milwaukee I found that Home Depot had a 2 knife and 50 blade pack that worked to to be cheaper than...

The only reasons for spec'ing are both faults on the contractors behalf. Either wanting to legitimately, on paper, up charge his services. A dump truck cost more so I'll have to charge you more. The other reason is if you shop his 'specs' around for other quotes it could force the other guys to...

One thing with rolling the dice is not only could the system end up with a failure at an inconvenient time, the building on top could too. Another is that as time moves on so do code requirements. If you plan for something based on what is allowed now but put it off for a few years you may find...

If 2" = R17 does the structure use the same algorithm? I hope you've looked at the actual building they're giving you and know it to be sound to the degree you need/require. Here double bubble is a cheap bubble gum. After minute you've gotten your money's worth and it is just junk after that point.
