Guilty. Wish I had known this as I was up on a ladder a mere 5 days ago replacing all my T8 tubes... :)

This is really badass. Nothing like having DATA on your setup to see how its really working (or not). Thanks for sharing the details of the build! What your considerations towards condensation/harsh conditions for the Pi? Uness I missed something, the board for the PI and everything else is...

THANK YOU for sharing and posting these inspirational words. I've been getting the run around from "professionals" on my boiler upgrade, no one wants to touch a boiler install anymore it seems. The more I see people like yourself posting their successes, the more I'm convinced the only way to...

I find oil adsorber to work better than kitty litter... I don't think they're the same, cat litter clumps up and leaves oil under it. the oil adsorber I get from the local auto supply place keeps soaking up until its saturated and won't clump. one trick I've found works well (as I always have...

Would probably work great too but with it being a fully liquid spray, might not work in all applications. Now if they invented Spray 9 wipes....

Depending on where you live in Ontario, if your needs are simple, you might want to check out some trailer builders in the Mennonite areas. They seem to have more reasonable pricing and tend to build their stuff on site (so more stock) One option for steel to increase corrosion resistance is...

hospital/food industry scores are always good - heavy duty stainless steel stuff meant for industrial use. jealous! that looks useful

another Tub O' Towels user here, seems to work the best for cleaning off electric tools

Yep, I've got natural gas to the house. I looked up the heat loss on 1" insulated pex line.. it looked pretty low, something like 18 BTU/ft/hr of heat loss? That doesn't seem terrible... Putting in multiple boilers would mean multiple gas lines, one to each building I want to heat. I just...

Hey everyone, Sorry for the novel... I figured the background story would help to visualize where I am so I can better explain where I want to go. :D My property came with an existing hydronic heat setup that is based around an outdoor wood boiler. Most of the things in the setup are working...

patience is the big key with Evaporust. have something else to do for a few days while waiting. the warmer the fluid, the faster the chelation process works, to a point... just don't have it in a cold basement and expect the same speed as if it was in a hot garage during summer for parts I...

Its the dead heat of August and I'm planning some major retrofitting to my in floor heat setup :rocker:🔥 This thread was actually the reason I signed up and went from lurker to poster on this board. Thanks to everyone who has posted their knowledge and their beautiful work. Here's some...

It goes on after that.... all the way through to Mk 4 at the end of 2006!

In this day and age of LED battery powered lights, I've never had them go dim as the battery charge went down. :deadhorse

when I saw "Tire buffer" I thought they made a tool that was specifically designed for applying tire shine.

Thanks for the additional feedback, everyone. Mainly I thought 3/4" pex was more restrictive internally than 3/4" copper (the house is all 3/4" copper) and I thought I was losing flow on the input side. I did some informal testing by turning both tubs in the house on and flushing a toilet...

is it sort of like an organic, nearly egg like off odor? I find it goes away letting the item you've just cleaned dry in air for a day or two

you don't need to hook the negative to one battery and positive to another, unless that's a newfangled thing with those newfangled 4th gen trucks that will fry the computer unless you ask nicely first... :D but I'm pretty sure the alternator charges just one battery (passenger side) and the...

It seems the consensus is I'm just making more work for myself in the end to switch to 1". This is why I thought to float the idea in a public forum :) I can just disconnect that sharkbite fitting at the top, and get some 1" NPT to 3/4" pex adapters for the filter in/outs. It will be way...

Greetings Garage Journal, I'm planning the replacement/upgrade of my household water filtering setup, and I'm trying to figure out if I'm going the extra step, or one step too far! My well pressure tank has a 1" NPT output that gets restricted down to 3/4" before it feeds everything else. The...
