Mountain Dew is nice. Dr. Pepper is also another one that's high in the caffeine content. My wife hurt her back once and thought she was going to die until she received 2 acupuncture treatments which straightened her out. Hope your back survives. You may need to seriously consider adding...

I also believe the 40 vs 80 depends 9n the local code. In NJ, 80 is required for underground because it is thicker and less likely to break where it emerges from the ground. If your region also has cold temps, you may need expansion joints to allow for movement from the temperature swings. Sent...

I believe it depends on what cable you use for the conduit fill. https://www.vikingelectric.com/c/BusinessPagesView?storeId=13801&catalogId=10251&page=SCH_40_80_PVC_Conduit_Fil_VES Are you using THHN/THWN? Looks like you could put six 3 gauge copper wire in 1.25 inch conduit so it sounds...

I'm paying around 17 cents currently so I am hoping it will be faster. Sent from my LG-H918 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Are you getting SRECs from the power company? I just got past permit approvals and the SRECs are going to accelerate the break even for me. I can only fit 10 panels for a 4.3kw system though. Sent from my LG-H918 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Rat-rod looks very nice. Maybe you are Oldironrescuer since the iron farming is too slow and you're much quicker harvesting aluminum, brass, and copper. Speaking of Cu, I watched an Aussie youtuber recover three lbs of copper from a discarded microwave. He said sometimes the transformer can be...

Looks like Bob was using advice from the tool polisher thread. Sent from my LG-H918 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Seriously the best wheel upgrades ever! Makes you wonder how small a tractor you can get. Here's one from Walmart.

It may be a mere coincidence, but it sure seems the brai for ten led to a very successful day at the bootfair. I imagine the value of the hat and tights alone easily covered the cost of everything else. Glad Harley didn't have to be harmed. His supervisory duties must go on. Sent from my...

Isn't it rewarding when you can prove that some theories will work practically like using wireless in place of wired networks? I just wish there was an inexpensive way to get gigabit ethernet between the floors of my 100 year old house without breaking the budget. I'm lucky that my UniFi...

Hi Andy, Glad to hear the pup returned! I sent you a PM reply from my iPad Sunday night, and checked for responses yesterday while I was waiting to be called for jury selection and was never selected. I suspect you may not have received the response because the message does not appear in my...

Maybe you can make a small temporary paint room by suspending drop cloths from the ceiling around your project items? Would reduce the volume of dusty air and may yield more desirable results.

Your pop's shop is looking great.

I bet my wife would love it if a banker told us to expand our house, but I would need to secure more revenue to make up for it. Sounds so much better to do the expansion on the farm. Your farm is definitely attractive and your outlook makes it fun to follow. Random question, how old would a...

Rian, it sounds like you should offer up a sacrifice to the bootfair gods before your next expedition. You are fortunate in that you have the perfect altar for sacrifices in your backyard. Hopefully this will improve the results of your outings, and worst case scenario, you fill the stomach. Eugene

Very nice air nozzle mod! I wonder if you could also incorporate some sort of brushed or skirted surround. Looks like you have plenty of clearance, but the challenge would be getting a vacuum hose integrated into the lovely chamber. Something like this perhaps? Google shows lots of...

Outstanding news! Steady as she goes! Sent from my LG-H918 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Busy is good, just don't forget to smell the roses! Thought you were going to say you both fell in love with the estate home, but realized you'll probably not want to leave the new shop. Sent from my LG-H918 using The Garage Journal mobile app

Sorry for seeing this late, but make or buy a deadlift platform. At one of my old jobs, (Division I football program), they used platforms for all deadlifting and under the benches to protect the concrete below each station. I would suggest doing this to protect your floors from potential damage.
