    Sorry man. I'm probably not alone here, but I am watching, learning, and acting every now and then. We're listening for sure. We greatly appreciate all the information you, and plenty of others, share freely.

    I'm looking to get a small tankless water heater for the shop bathroom. It will just be for the sink there, washing hands and stuff. Any recommendations on brands?

    Has anyone else ever heard one of those garage door springs snap? It’s hard to explain the sound but you never forget it. I’ll change springs on struts, self compressing those with proper tools but the garage door springs are a huge nope.

    I have a Wolf convection thing that was right around $500. Totally worth it if you cook about that much often. Anova's thing is 15% off right now, $510, but yeah... Expensive. https://anovaculinary.com/anova-precision-oven/

    I’m very happy with the Milwaukee 18v line. Getting the chainsaw this week. Have used the weed eater to maintain my property. 12Ah and 8Ah batteries required though. I have the one with optional heads, and use the limb saw and hedger often. Hedger to clear thicker brush, not actual hedges. I...

    Here's my whole house setup. Dual water heaters, recirc, softening, 2x filtering, can be bypassed in two places. I think everything but whole house RO at this point. You can see where the main comes in at the bottom right - real easy access, no wall guessing.

    It's a physical device that hooks up to whatever type of glory hole your phone has. Lightning connector version is what I have. It's not as good as the $10k ones, obviously.

    @Lanx if you have an iOS device I can send you a FLIR to use for awhile. I haven't used it in months and probably don't need it for a few months.

    No that’s only in the shop, which isn’t filtered. When I fill up jugs of water to water some plants in the yard.

    I have a fuckoff huge Culligan system installed that filters everything but isn’t whole house RO. “Softener” is just easier.

    I have a whole house water softener / filtration system, RO in the kitchen (push button to engage at the sink) with the line to the refrigerator coming through the RO system, so ice / drinking water from there is filtered. 5 stage, like @Lanx mentioned. Softener makes a huge difference and it...

    Maybe it’s an Arkansas thing, but I do the same shit as @LachiusTZ Even when I looked at 16 houses in 2 days, I talked to someone in the neighborhood at about half of them. Ruled out 4 houses that way. When I fucked off to the country it was a little harder to meet neighbors prior to...

    They are back online! It was an actual light switch in the same panel which I installed the caseta dimmer. My guess is that these outlets were used for christmas lights, so he could just shut them all off from inside quickly. No GFCI anywhere.

    Alright, I'll put myself out there a little bit. Cribs, rural AR style. This is a 60x40 that the previous owner built. 14' side walls, 18' peak. He ran a business out of it for a decade or more. It's not a perfect setup for how I'll use it, but nothing is ever really perfect. These pictures will...

    @BrutulTM yeah the dimmer is indoors, on a totally unrelated circuit. That was just the last thing I was doing when it cut out. The panel isn't labeled, so I'm labeling it as I go. I had to toggle about 10 switches to find the circuit I was working on. Once I found it, the others were on, but...

    I have a question for our electricians or those with more experience than I do. I lost power to the outlets in the eaves of my house. I have cameras in many of them, little Wyze v3 cameras. This coincided with me installing a dimmer switch, and doing the typical "flip off the unlabeled breaker...

    I just got one this year. With the backorder I didn't get it installed until May, so I haven't even used it yet. I went with an insert. There's currently a tax credit in effect for models above 75% efficiency. Since you have the room for a free standing stove, this opens it up for you. Lots of...

    The house I bought in AR is nearly 3850 square feet but that includes a 26x14 bonus room above the garage. Projector room in progress. I could get pics of that, but it's very in progress. As for wasted space, the main entry area of this house is quite large. It came in handy during...

    Have you considered a shop instead of adding that kind room to your house? That way, when you go to sell, the potential owner can use it however they wish. Old picture of my gym setup as I was getting it unpacked last summer.

    Mortgage refinance offers

    What Rocket Mortgage quoted me was beaten soundly by a regional bank - Regions bank. It was like 3.6% for a 30 fixed vs 2.85%. Wasn't even close. This was a year ago. Not a refi, but shop around.
