    Can someone explain what I will need for Fiber internet in the shop?

    Agree. I worked in the CPE and network side of Bell/AT&T over 20years. CPE was voice and data. Telephone systems, data switches, routers, inside wiring. Network was high speed data, cell site, internet service, copper and fiber installations. And…a bunch of other stuff. I would not chance...

    Bell system

    Until AT&T changed it. No job is so important and no service is so urgent that we cannot take time to perform our work safely and in an environmentally responsible manner. Still cool… I should have saved some of stickers we had in our vans.

    Garage framing

    That's exactly what I did. Live with it. It never caused me an issue, but I covered it with a 2by because I didn't want critter holes or dropping something in it. I think big gap spray foam would be fine. I would insulate the walls. I would be careful about the tin in an unheated space. I...

    How do you use your ladder to get on the roof?

    I used ladders my entire career with the phone company. A fall from 9ft can kill you. Almost every technician I know that got hurt was from a ladder fall. Tie your ladder off and use a stabilizer. Get you a fall harness kit. Better yet, hire someone with insurance if you're uncomfortable. My 2...

    Welding area in shop?

    I'm always paranoid when grinding or welding. I really don't want a fire. I'm thinking of building a dedicated work area for these activities. It's more sparks when using the angle grinder. I don't have a bench grinder. I have some leftover roofing panels and an exhaust fan. I'll build or...

The walls are 3/8 inches thick T-11 siding on 4 inch pattern. It has water based stain. The ceiling is...

    Bonkers conduit size for fiber run?

    I installed fiber my last 3+ years of my career. We would run it aerial or direct bury. Our bury crew came behind and trenched it. The only time we required 2” conduit if it was high speed dedicated business service. Residential never required. On the business side I used a fusion splicer for...

    Trying to run a conduit under my driveway, using a water nozzle, no idea where the other end is!

    That was my next suggestion but, you beat me to it. A tone and pickup will find to but, it is $$.

    Trying to run a conduit under my driveway, using a water nozzle, no idea where the other end is!

    You can't be "pretty sure"....How much pvc did you push? I've done jet boring before and it seems to travel down. Here is the DIY how you find it. Get a fiberglass fish tape and run it down the conduit. Pull it back and measure or lay it out and swing an arc. It's in that swing. If you're...

    Delta Dust Collector

    The guy said it’s a 2 stage but, I don’t see that in any specs. I’m not sure about the filters and such. The bag on top was heavy duty material. I’m new to dust collection. I’ll try to get a better picture. Maybe I should pass or WIW?
