Re: what did you do in your garage today? It was my laundry room actually, but I fixed the water heater, despite the protests of my idiot plumber. $150 for a new temperature controller/gas valve and a replacement FRD from Rheem instead of $600+ for a new water heater? Yes please.

Hello and greetings from the Heart of Dixie. Kids are getting old enough that I'm able to spend some more time out in the shop. Cleaned it out, and came here looking for ideas. I'm an old car audio guy (it's in the name), but, as I tell my daughter, these days I'm mostly a tinkerer, and...
