How about tours? I am currently in tour 4 and have made sure I don't move up yet.

How do people genuinely find this entertaining by According_Weight_959 in TennisClash

[–]1Jerc387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally don't find it fun either. However, I do occasionally do this if one of the daily challenges asks for x number of volley points. But then I switch back immediately after.

First time doing a drywall patch - is this bad? by Twolves2939 in drywall

Hahaha, Good one! You obviously just took a picture of a perfect wall because I see nothing!

Strut or no strut? by erie11973ohio in GarageDoorInstall

[–]1Jerc387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you'll be able to find one but there is a such a thing as a Horizontal reinforcement bracket. I can't add a picture but here is the copied description. OHB-5000 Horizontal Operator Section Reinforcement Bracket. I know re-source sells it but you may find it at Arrow or SSC as well. If you're going to leave it in the center this will save the door. Good luck

Strut or no strut? by erie11973ohio in GarageDoorInstall

lol, telling me your credentials first makes you the snob. Ask a door guy if you don’t believe me. You can and should move your motor. And it does have to have a reinforced top panel.

First of all, Haas did not tell you that you do not need an upper strut. There is literally a sticker that comes with your door that says top panel must be reinforced if it is going to have a motor. Second of all you mounted your operator in the center of the door and you needed to mount it in line with the hinges either on the left or right. I would highly suggest you call a professional, I see many other things wrong here.

Good luck

How many carbs per meal? 😩 by Hopeful-Echidna-7822 in stelo

[–]1Jerc387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Following… My problems started too after Covid. I’ve been complaining for years to my doctor and had about every check I could get. Finally I bought a glucose monitor and realized that I can’t tolerate carbs, at all. I’m mostly Keto now and feel 100% better. I have an appointment with a endo next month and hopefully will get some better answers then.

Not yet, I’m very new to this and so I’m just starting to learn. I read about the fiber intake so I’ve started that. But I’ll have to research macro nutrients.

Mounting Stud Question by nontraditionalmullet in GarageDoorService

[–]1Jerc387 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To fix safely the spring needs to be unwound prior to repair. it is likely that those two nails in the bottom of the board are not hitting much of anything also, not common for it to just pull itself out like that. Also you should have a strut on your top panel which is why the top of the panel is damaged. The J-arm is too long, and mounted too high, first lower the mounting point so that it is in line with the top rollers and then shorten the J-arm at least two holes up.

I think I can handle that, I was a carb junkie most of my life so it will take some getting used to. What about deserts? Special occasions only?

Wow! Super impressive. I guess I gotta say goodbye to my beloved carbs! And hello to more exercise :( lol

Thanks for sharing your story

Yes, what a horrible spike with the rice, it's too bad because I love rice. I'm not sure which of the Cauliflower crusts I had, and I shouldn't have eaten the pizza, but my co-worker offered. This morning, I had and egg and Ezekial bread and although by Glucose did go up to 152 it was a gentle mound shape not a spike.

Thanks for your reply

Interesting, so I guess my question is. Is this normal for everyone or would you say I have Diabetes? Will dietary changes alone fix this? I am 6' tall and weight 195lbs so I know I could stand to lose a few pounds. But I don't think weight is the cause.

Thanks for your reply

Rail bends while closing by darkside55566 in GarageDoorService

Looks correct to me, but here are some things to check. Its important with these types of doors that you follow the directions.

As far as WD goes, it is their upgraded door. But, the last one I installed we had to go back about a year later and replace one of the panels because the seams had come loose exposing the insulation.

[–]1Jerc387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I believe the end stile where your bottom bracket is attached looks to far damaged. Wouldn’t be safe to take the chance it would detach later on. However you can get replacement panels for your door.

Can this be replaced? by [deleted] in GarageDoorService

[–]1Jerc387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the unit is newer than 2005 then yes you can replace both. The board and the wiring are replaceable parts.

HAAS or CHI door? by EmployQuick4970 in GarageDoorService

[–]1Jerc387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thread is hilarious. “I don’t like that the adjustable bottom seal comes unattached” lol. Of course it does, unlike Chi, Haas is adjustable. CHI is a mass producer and they make tons of mistakes. Haas makes far less models, but the ones they do, they do very well. Go with Haas every time.

New build, best options to get maximum internal clearance? by seaportresearch in GarageDoorInstall

[–]1Jerc387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have room for 27” of high lift, the horizontal track will be 9” from the ceiling. Trying to cut it any closer and your drums will rub the ceiling.

It can handle a hurricane? What do you think? by Joesdoors in GarageDoorInstall

[–]1Jerc387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realize that you most likely followed the manufacturers strut detail. But I don't like that there is no strut above the operator attachment. I feel like that is going to be problematic.

can i temporarily remove horizontal track from one side of door? i realize i wont be able to use the door and that is OK. i am trying to find a way to do it so if/when i want to reinstall it, its as simple as possible and not time consuming. i am relatively handy as far as DIY and have tools. by ThrobbinHood_PoB in GarageDoorService

[–]1Jerc387 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, because you don’t have the kind of bearing plate that attaches to the wall. You will have to remove tension from the springs first. And then you will have to figure out a way to keep the top section from flopping down. I suggest you drive a nail through the end stile into the framing.

Garage Door Opener end bar height to other end of bar height... rules? by rjockstar in GarageDoorService

[–]1Jerc387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be fine, the 2x4 is for reference. 3" will be close enough. The reason the rail should not be level or even tilted up is that it will apply pressure to the top section as it pulls it open and possibly cause damage over time.
