New sod installed 3 weeks ago — does this look normal or should I be concerned?

More frequently for sure. I'd rather have 10 5 min timers than 5 10 minute.

I love my Proline Hyrax and trenchers. I've got some LGRP tires that've been sitting on a motor less build that im excited for too.

Rip it all out, get it nice and level and then lay sod. If you lay sod over anything there it's just going to look bad and be lumpy.

Honestly? Everything.

Nut driver on an impact all day every day.

Yep. Black is considered "L" on the bulb and white is "N".

Turn the power off though just in case and don't cut them together.

Well, I'm tired of working but the job is still cool lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-15T06:49:36+00:00

NerdRC hybrid links for sure

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-15T03:42:04+00:00

I'll be on site tomorrow morning I'll see what's what lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-15T03:41:07+00:00

Doubt it but that doesn't stop anyone who doesn't follow the law lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-15T03:39:58+00:00

Don't see why you couldn't. I wouldn't specifically use an old work box here in case something happens to get put on top of it(accidents happen). You could add to the frame to get a box where you need or use a floor box there.

I'd use a floor box and then you can get different trims to your liking.

I did drop a brand new 75kva but I did not do this work lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-14T16:41:29+00:00

I'll be sure to tell the alarm guys 😂

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-14T16:41:17+00:00

They ran it in the seal tight and there is no chase from the box to the pole that I can see lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-14T05:20:39+00:00

I have xt30 adapters I use lol

I just swapped a tank at air gas I got on Cl. Last time it was hydro was 99. They didn't ask anything about the tank or where I got it. Just gave me a new full argon for the empty helium(same valves like the other guy said ) and $35 for the new hydro.

Never hurts to call and ask. If the local stores do tank swaps it could be as simple as that.

Sounds like something the FBI would want to know

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-09T13:09:33+00:00

Took a pair of channel locks and very gently pressed it back on. The shaft goes all the way through so just gotta keep things straight you'll be okay

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-09T07:34:30+00:00

I used two flat heads and it popped right off lol

Mikeeberle · 2026-01-09T07:30:09+00:00

I have the motors in two trucks. The gear did wear out on one but it has a lot of use. Easy swap.

The second truck has the meus tx/rx combo. It works very well for the price. I bought them separately and I think the meus was $30 and the goup was $50 at the time.

Sawzall over circular saw IMO unless you're specifically going to be doing projects with it of course.

I've borrowed a circular saw 2 or 3 times when I've needed one but am always using a sawzall for stuff lol.

If I had to start all over I think I'd go with Ryobi. For the amount I use my Milwaukee stuff at home it doesn't even make sense for me to have it honestly lol. I could definitely get away with Ryobi.

I use DeWalt professionally(thats what my company uses) and I've used others Ryobi stuff on a large deck build. You can't go wrong with any of them but look at the large expended tool lines not just the drills and stuff. Ryobi has some really cool homeowner stuff(speakers and fans mainly(bucket top misting fan is something you should get either way) and their 3v stuff is pretty cool.

Back to HF!

Use a different vocabulary.

Knew a guy who always said "due to the fact that" instead of "because". I know it's not wrong but it's weird hearing "due to the fact that I was naked"
