re: Plumbing Question
Posted by MrBobDobalina on 5/31/24 at 7:45 pm
Not sure your location but in Baton Rouge a house is regulated to around 7-11 inches w.c. or barely over a half a pound. Most generators need a higher (2-5 psi) regulator to keep up with the demand of the generator. You'd have to look at the btus for the generator vs. the input you are receiving fro...

re: I want to learn to weld..
Posted by MrBobDobalina on 5/15/24 at 4:29 pm
The only way to learn to weld is to start burning rods. If youve ever used a hot glue gun, youre basically a certified MIG welder.
TIG is a little more artist fartsy and usually needs a shielding gas. Machines cost more and need a good supply of bottles.
6010 is the foundation. Being able to ...

re: P trap help - how would you repair?
Posted by MrBobDobalina on 3/21/24 at 11:18 am
Close but we want dwv as the fittings don't need to be pressure rated. Sch 40 takes up more room that you do not have.

If you have a hacksaw or sawzall, use it to remove ftg "A" by cutting through pipe "B" and leave as much of pipe "B" intact as possible. You want to get rid of that 90° while leaving as much of pipe "B" as you can.
The side of your blade should be touching "A" while you are cutting through "B"....

Some states like NY and CA require 2" traps in kitchens, LA does not. Those states circumvent glue joints by using galvanized or cast iron fittings for drainage. Glue joints are much less forgiving as once they dry (obviously) you're stuck with what you have. SJ you can loosen and retighten forever....

I'll give them props for properly venting your island (chicago/loop vent) and not just throwing a studor vent under there.
If you want to avoid cutting in a tee or using the socket saver there is another option if you have the space.
For the record, nickel and dime repair (teflon/pipe dope) m...

The OG plumber that installed this is who fricked you from the jump. Normally in houses the only thing that needs a 2" drain is a washing machine. If I was coming fix this at your house...I'm either

^^^ Correct. The tee is 3/8 compression, the faucet will be 1/2 Female iron pipe. Additionally, you can buy a couple of 3/8 comp x 3/8 comp lavatory flexs and daisy cahin them with a 3/8 compression union: [link=(https://www.supplyhouse.com/Bluefin-BCU038-3-8-OD-Brass-Compression-Union-Lead-Free?utm...

In 2019, I bought a 2017 Tacoma for 30.5k. It had 29k miles and was loaded (4wd, manual, TRD Offroad)
I wasn't able to negotiate it down very much as there were less than 10 for sale in the US and the closest one was Mobile.
All that to say, if it has less than 35k miles and isn't a base mode...
re: Natural Gas Crawfish Burner - Info and Build
Posted by MrBobDobalina on 3/8/24 at 12:31 pm
No regulator needed if you're on a regular gas line. If you had a high pressure regulator installed (for a home generator) then you would likely have to regulate it down at the burner for it to work properly. ...
