    DIY Mini Splits

    NO, Senville has traditional flared copper lines. IMHO, "pre-charged" lines are over-rated. CT

    Mexican mini-split?

    A friend of mine said he found mini-splits; $500 1 ton and $900 2 ton... Told him I'd commission them, but no warranty. Edit: Went back and read the texts. He said $500 for 1 ton and $900 for 2 ton were RETAIL! Some guy in Texas bought a container full... So yes, they could be $200 MS units...

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT ZMotorsports Home and 50x60x16 Shop/RV Garage

    Louisiana here. Bermuda grass is a desirable grass, for lawns and for hay. It is VERY heat and drought tolerant. Bermuda is hard to kill. It is a running grass, hence why it spreads quickly. It is also very tolerant to Glyphosate. To kill other undesirables in Bermuda grass, spray Glyphosate...

    More progress on exhaust. Think I have a plan now... Still too much wire speed I believe. Gorilla welds. They are ugly, but hopefully, strong, no leaks. Believe will add V-bands here. CLOSE !!! May or may not even grind welds. 🤔 I do plan to prep and paint the exhaust. Any...

    C100 is hotter, but with little more spatter. Also, much cheaper than 75/25 and Stargon Tri-Mix. Got this 100 lb CO2 cylinder almost full at an estate sale for $25. It has been enjoyable so far. First exhaust build. Will back wire speed down, feel heat is about right. Only weld few times a...

    0.030" Set to recommend voltage/feed settings. Agree, believe need to back wire speed down a little. Noticed it was popping a little when welding (too fast). Using 100% CO2 shield gas. I am very, very out of practice. I have the theory and general idea of welding. Do not proclaim to be a...

    Now that new tools are assembled, let's start the original project! About $2500 worth of "tools" to build a $400 exhaust... Got the driver side from collector to passenger side pipe "done" for now. Will need to grind welds and paint with something. Tried to clear transmission, tuck as...

    Did not make as much progress as wanted on exhaust. Spent most of yesterday and earlier today assembling new tools required to fabricate an exhaust system! 6"x48" belt, 9" disc sander. https://www.harborfreight.com/6-in-x-48-in-belt-and-9-in-disc-sander-59220.html Then of course a...

    Thank you. Had DynoMax when I was in my teens. Liked the sound vs FlowMaster. Hope the 2 in - 2 out idea works... Like a balance pipe. Mainly to not snap, crackle, pop every time you lift off the skinny pedal. CT
