I’m on Jeff David electric on the Manchester substation and I was told by a buddy who is a lineman that we’re looking at about three weeks. If you’re on entergy then you’re probably a lot sooner. ...

re: 5th Lake Charles family member dies after being poisoned by generator fumes
Posted by Chuckd on 9/4/20 at 9:38 am
He probably lost his whirlybirds and had the holes covered like most people. My buddy had his in the threshold of his garage with the exhaust facing out and his co alarms went off. Don’t chance this stuff, this kills multiple people every year. If your worried about rain, find a piece of OSB that go...
re: Injuries while doing woodworking
Posted by Chuckd on 7/1/20 at 7:33 pm
I’ve lost some meat on my fingers to the table saw and miter saw. All avoidable and while I was doing sketchy stuff. Thankfully they all healed and I upgraded to a saw stop since my fingers are worth more than a few thousand dollars. ...

Freud makes a rabetting bit for your router that comes with different size bearings for different size rabets. No straight edges necessary, the bearing takes all the guess work out. You’ll need a chisel to square up the corners though since they’ll be round ...

Minwax wipe on poly is fool proof. Also arm r seal as mentioned above but minwax is available in stores. Just make sure it the wipe on version and do some test pieces.

I had the same issue. I snaked it and all appeared to be fine but it would still over flow.

I finally called a plumber and he had a snake with a different type of tip that was able to clea...
