Dunno about how much of a turn on it would be to have cold air blowing up my ass. :icon_rape: And IIRC Josh is a big guy, so you'd want a solid table top. Either way I think invitations are in order (once the basement is finished).

OMG I can see why you want to renovate it, too bad about the toilet type. About that mask, I notice you have asbestos filters on it (pink). Are they just for dust or do you actually have asbestos in there? Never mind just read about the no disposables.... I' thought I'd include that sexy picture anyway.

That is going to be a sweet looking basement. My two cents: go with a pool table it's hard to fuck on an air hockey table.

besides the existing plumbing why not go with a floor mounted job?

if it's the glue part, try and find some "solvo-plast" some pharmacies have it. I have heard that rubbing alcohol will work also but I've never tried it.

no it's still not too late, we've had a few guys quit at work so I havent' had time to rip up the rest, with the overtime I'm pulling down I may just hire someone to do the whole place. I'm going to look into the power scraper.

I've never tried this I usually just rip it out and go with copper, but have you thought about trying a dremel tool? or a small rotary cutting tool of choice. Is it pvc (probably cpvc) for supply lines or ABS (black for drainage) lines? I saw an article on here somewhere about repairing abs on the XX. If it's a drain line that won't have much pressure I bet you could "patch" the leak in the same way, with using some ground up abs into a powder and abs cement.

Looks like the relay isn't strong enough for the current draw the compressor needs. This could be caused by either your compressor is getting older (3 years it doesn't seem likely but you never know), and it's starting to pull more current, you could check this out with an amprobe and compare it to the tag on the equipment, but your service man should have already done that. Another possibility is it's a cheapo made in china switch that is only designed to last for the duration of the warranty, if you can buy a heavier duty relay, or just buy 2 other cheapies and replace them yourself every 3 years. Oh ya.. your compressor may be cupped

Ya but then you're not a handy man, you're a "pay up cocksucker" man. BTW I found a great way to get the last little bits off the floor, use a vaccuum cleaner with a beater brush attachment.

Ok so I've got wall to wall ugly carpet at my place, it's going.. It seems to be the stuff with the foam backer on it and glued to the floor. I've been cutting with a utility knife it to remove the "carpet" layer then using a square shovel, and a putty knife to get up the underpad. This is working pretty well as I don't mind a little elbow grease. But, is there an easier way?

Next time just leave the water on, hook up the hose, and let it flow until it runs clear, the sludge builds up in the bottom of the tank, so no real need to drain it completely, unless you are winterizing the tank. I do this about once every 3 months. You may want to do it more or less depending on how hard the water is in your area.

Same thing here using opera too, the internet must have frozen.. it's slow with ie also

I haven't been to see the trouble yet but I'll explain what's happening, this is at a friends house, which I am now refering to as "green acres" Circuits breakers are opening about 7-8 times a day. The landlord said he will send out an electrician, she's been waiting over a week, I was up looking at her place a couple of weeks ago and the electrical work isn't that great, I found many small things wrong, if you like not code.. mostly electrical tie in boxes not closed, breakers missing from the pannel without a proper cap (you konw those little plastic jobies) noting critical, just not good work., and it's probably the same guy going to show up to trouble shoot the problem. I'm a level 2 electrical apprentice (journeyman?) so I know about being safe etc... I know there are a few licensed electricians here so I'd like to pick your brains. There is water infintraton when it rains, so I'm going to check the plugs, and boxes for moisture, as well as any junction boxes I findas well as the pannel itself, but it hasn't rained in a few days. Sometimes when she runs 2 appliances it will blow the breakers, even if they are on different circuits, could this be a load balancing problem? When she comes home there are circuits blown, when in theory the only thing operating bigger than a clock radio when she's not there is the fridge (less than a year old). The house is cupped... Ok so here's what I'm looking for: humidity, load balancing, short circuits (I may just bring a megger and test everything), I'll be looking for scorch marks on the receptacles. Anything else?

Thanx but looking for a new or new aftermarket spring, as most of the old ones have the same problem which is the sag or compression of the spring, I guess after 20 years it's expected.

Hi, a friend of mine has an '84 v65 sabre and he is looking for a new rear spring, any where he can get one? The hond dealers don't have anything for that old a bike.

If by radient topyou meanthe fance easy clean "ceran" type the only thing I have heard bad about them is if you drop a pot on the top it can crack the surface. The top is almost as much as a new stove.

As a few others have said try the Cheetah SST it cost me 60$ Canadian from national cycle, including shipping brokerage tax all that crap and still was 20$ cheaper than anywhere else around here.

Does anyone know where to get parts for an HJC symax? The Plastic, non structural spacer in my passenger helmet broke, it's a little plastic/nylon spacer and gear for the ratcheting and it keeps the flip up face guard in position. I've contaced HJC and they say to contact my local bike shop. 2 local bike shops say to contact HJC. Of course the thing is 3 months out of warrenty.
