On my way home, a rock flung and punctured my transmission plan.I spent all weekend trying to find a replacement locally with no luck. So I ordered one on rockauto, one with a drain plug built in, fancy. So my transmission is going to be sitting open until I get the new pan, delivery estimate is Friday. It's dripping fluid. so I wonder. If I keep it as is until install the new pan, how much will it drain? Will the torque converter drain out too?
>>2981379
>>2981379yeah, no one believes his childish storyhe probably did something utterly stupid but the "official" version is "a rock fling, haha", just like i was "searching for something" in my pants, when my parently almost got me masturbating furiously when i was a kid
>>2981366> with a drain plug built inNoice. Wish my Silverado would have had one. Filter change was a miserable job with the mess.
>>2982318pro bubba tip: watch yootoob to see where the sensitive areas are then go out and blast a hole with the drill that hopefully misses aforementioned spots let the fluid drain civilly then pull the pan and weld a half coupling weld o let over the hole for a convenient service thereafter
>>2982335>drill a hole, weld coupling and THEN pull the pangreat
Decorsisters, where do I find wallpaper that doesn't suck? I've ordered samples from different online retailers and they all have the cheap digitalslop look like you can tell they were made in Adobe Illustrator. I see wallpaper in old buildings and you can see the artistry that went into it. Does anyone do that anymore?
>>2982286Yes, just not places that sell online. Online sellers are going for bulk sales, which means cheap. You get what you pay for.
>>2982286You can still buy a lot of William Morris designs, but they're not cheap from the source. Good news is it's all public domain so you can probably find a printer to do it for less that the quoted $350-400 per roll, which will only cover about four feet of wall.

>>29811617-ply crossgrain
>>2981192I don't think premade ply would cut it, even for an 80's style deck (I remember them having a subtle bowl to the top). I don't think laminating your own would be particularly hard if you had a press & forms ready to go though.
from stuff ive seen, the mold doesnt need to be very precise. people are making serviceable boards out of insultating foam. pressing the first one tonight out of some veneers found on ebay. been trying to get in touch with a place that sells veneers locally but theyve been elusive. trying the basic symmetrical pattern for the proof of concept before getting into old-school deck shapes and experiments. will update when boards are pressed and paint is passed through screens

i had the day off, so i took my dad's broken radio apart to try and fix it. thought anons might appreciate it, since this thing is literally older than me. anyway the station doesn't change at all when the knob is turned (even though the frequency indicator on the front side moves normally). the pulley string seems to be intact, but i'm clueless to why the station remains unchanged. can some radio guru point me in the right heading.

Why does everyone seem to like this kind of flooring (LVP)? I would never put it in anywhere and would rather put in carpet, real hardwood, ceramic tile, Vinyl Composition Tile squares, or even standard linoleum.
>>2980930>there's a reason everyone who did cover it with anything but hardwood Yea the reason is people are cheap and retarded. People see a beat up hardwood floor that's 50 years old and think it's "icky". Then they either tear it out because they don't know you can refinish them or they see the cost of refinishing and think "I can slap in some cheap LVP on top of it for a 1/3 of the cost" and have to replace it in 5 years
It looks nice, is cheap and practical. You only hate it because it's popular.

What is the highest quality silent air compressor you can buy? I need one for Airbrushing indoors. I don't want to disturb my family and lose my ability to hear.
>>2980950This is pretty quiet
>>2981006yah burgerstan the screws under 50hp are "italian" built with mostly china parts and the airends fail randomly even with full mfg maintenance schedules. might as well but genuine chinkshit at 10% the price if the pathetic life expectancy is sub 20k hours (3-4 years)luckily theres a local outfit that inhouse assembles private label quincys and stands behind them with warranty
>>2980950the best one is a loud one in a soundproofed enclosure...or put it far away with a long hose
>>2980950is there really a need to have a quiet compressor?if all you need is compressed air for painting a few models then you could buy a air tank or two then fill it up now and again when/where the noise isn't a issue yeah?

Do I need to hire a pro or can I just replace the capacitor and contactor myself for less than what they'd charge?I had a guy come out a few years ago and he just cleared my drainage pipe, and I've been at this place for ~5 years now so I figure I should just replace those parts
Take a photo of the contactor before or change one wire over at a time. Discharge the cap before you touch it. Make sure there's no power going to the unit before your start.
>>2981902if you can figure out how to unplug it and discharge the cap i'd say go for it. if you fuck shit up somehow you can just pay someone to fix it for you as initially planned.having interchangeable parts doesn't mean any part of the same type fits, look at both the rating and package if you for whatever reason aren't able to get a identical part number.
I replaced the cap on my heat pump, very easy job. To remove any cap cut the power, wait a minute, then remove the pins. The contactor is likely pretty easy too, agian just the power and wait a minute for anything in the system to discharge.

What do you think of a stove designed like this? I have a bunch of round pipes of different diameter and I want to make a stove for my workshop
I installed this wood stove recently and bought a wood splitter and fiskars axe, I enjoy having secondary and tertiary sources of heat and it's quite fun to chop wood all day long I made the hearth and painted and restored the stove, it was a fun little project
>>2979627Looks efficient but difficult to clean. Maybe consider having another air intake under the grating.

It sounds like me and my sis might be inheriting my grandma's huge victorian (I think victorian) house built in 1889. It's like 3000 square feet not counting basement or attic space. Picrel looks really close to how the actual house looks, if it helps identify the kind of house.1st question... anyone know how my grandma can pass it down to us to minimize taxes? She tasked me to find out what lawyer to talk or how she can put it in her will, etc, but I am absolutely clueless.2nd... what are some major things I can expect to need to do with the house? Everything is paid off and we'll only need to pay taxes and utilities. The money we will be saving not paying rent will be going to a high yield savings to pay for things. As far as I know: The electric panel was replaced in the early 2010s, and most or all knob and tube wiring was removed way before that. The roof was replaced I think in 2016.My grandparents bought the house in the late 50s, so my grandma knows the last 60+ years of maintenance history that I can ask her.
>>2978472As if he's the head of the issue. He's a corrupt piece of shit, sure, but it's not like he's that important in the grand scheme. Look where they all get huge donations from and it'll make more sense.
>>2978008Victorians are notoriously difficult to repair and refit just starting with general carpentry. The rest of the mechanical trades will fall in line. New construction can be gutted and facelifted very easily. The older construction methods were intended to be permanent.
>>2974711check your state rules.passing ownership to family, CA for example, has a law/equation such that you dont suddenly pay current market value for taxes, but keep your previous tax rate with a bit of a bump. see if your state does similar and find the rules for it.
Grandma might be getting her heating subsidized btw - check that too.The will and estate lawyer is "family law". You want one. You and your wife too.
>>2978014the thing with asbestos is that it doesn't hurt you if it doesn't get in the air, so things like floor tiles and lino won't hurt you but if you start knocking down plaster walls without checking them first you are fucking yourself
Do any of you gents know anything about steel door frames? I've been searching for info on how to take this frame out and found nothing. The door frame, jamb and trim are all magnetic steel, and I can't find any seams or screw holes. Do I just need to take a grinder to this thing in order to get it out? I've scraped through the lead paint in a few spots where I thought there might be a screw hole and found steel underneath. See additional photos for the asbestos plaster it's set in.
>>2981807I'm hoping I won't have to cut through the wall. It's made out of 3/8 drywall with 3/8 of plaster thrown on top. Also 8% asbestos, and I dont work in abatement anymore. I guess I could try to rent an air scrubber somewhere.
>>2981773The hinge screws are hidden behind the jamb.
>>2981735Can’t tell with the paint, but if the corners are welded (ie it was a single part frame) then you probably won’t get it out without breaking the wall because they wrap around the wall. Later ones are 3 individual parts assembled on site with slide joints those are easier to remove, you can cut a slot near the bottom and use a pry bar. When you come across a screw or know where they are easiest is to drill the head off

Recently I've been seeing these "overly meticulous and pedantic" home inspectors popping up on YouTube, namely this guy and his copycats. They claim to be "exposing corruption in the housing industry" but as others have pointed out, it's all part of the marketing. What do you think?
>>2967506Cy seems like an unbearable prick and I refuse to watch his videos, but if I was. Buying a house I’d like someone like him to inspect it.
>>2980616Plus he looks like he could be the poster child for the goofy goober society.

>>2977780> lightswitch behind the door controversyI was going to chalk it up as “silly, but not illegal” but Cy showed his chapter and verse in AZ code. He won. NFPA 70 is not the law, NFPA 70 is incorporated by reference into the law. The ahj gets to add, include, remove whatever they want.t. electrical engineer
>>2967506I like inspectors being like that, they should be like that. If I'm paying that much money for a house, it better be spotless, walls aligned and symmetrical, no weird spots on the floor, no kind of cracks or missing caulk in the bathrooms, and no bullshit electrical. It surprises me that they can get away with some shit.
