    Remote control flail mower

    I think the remote is just servo controlled actuators for the electric drive motors, height adjustment pistons, and throttle. RC helicopter or airplane stuff. I was under the impression that flail was more robust for light brush. I’ve got mesquite and youpon holly up to 1”. I don’t care...

    Remote control flail mower

    I don’t see any other threads on this. I’m fairly convinced I’m going to buy a remote controlled flail mower of Alibaba. I’ve got 3-5 or so acres of overgrown pasture in the middle of my place. I’m seeing reports of getting this thing delivered for around $2,000-3,000. The Gravely Ovis is...

    I’ve been roughing in my first house. And my last. What a pain in the ***. Had to stop for shoulder surgery. Going to be a while before I can get back to it.

    Wet spot (on garage floor)

    Yeah. Seems unlikely from the slab. I went out to the parking lot the other day and thought I had a leak. Mine was the only car with a puddle under it. Hot Texas day. Pretty sure some AC component had iced up and melted. Could drill a 1/8” hole in slab just outside puddle zone and see if...

    Bad position

    I’ve used the screw and yank method successfully one. Failed on the second. Need to try soaking in vinegar. Nothing to lose. Now I try to change my D cells every January.

    How are your shipping containers taxed?

    I just got off the phone with the tax people. They thought I was living inside one of my shipping containers. I sent in an affidavit and some photographs showing the conex was clearly full of junk. And they adjusted it to storage. All good. I asked him about how shipping containers were...

    Pole barn insulation with Rockwool comfortboard

    Good gap for radiant barrier. Can birds rodents get to the vented gap? I like rockwool. Good to work with. Cuts easily.

    Need air conditioner recommendation

    The published specifications are pretty impressive. Unlike most of the consumer grade mini split stuff I’m looking at. I’m sure the price is going to be remarkable. Keep working and keep writing checks.

    Need air conditioner recommendation

    I’ll probably end up with 2 or 3 mini splits. But. The best alternative I could come up with something like this. There’s a dealer not too far away and I’ve got a call into them. It seems pretty ideal in terms of longevity and repairability. And 36,000 BTU is a pretty good guess at my need...

    Propane tank location

    Well, I’m 1200 feet or so from the road. I was planning on extending my road base to wherever I ended up putting the tank. So they could back right up to it. Well, I’ve got y’all. What is the minimum depth of my gas line? I am out in the country and there are no building codes. But I...

    Propane tank location

    That is a lot closer than I thought it would be. I wonder what the fire failure mode is. I’m guessing the vent with a big flare instead of blowing up. But that’s just a guess.
