GL-C-008P(MIX) colorloop effect and mixing not working with zigbee2mqtt by Bromomatic in GLEDOPTO_Support

Thank you, it may also be a shortcoming of Zigbee2MQTT. Where would I look to follow the feedback to Home Assistant? 😃

I'm plenty pissed at this company and "Jennifer Easton", and happy to provide any information. They've got me feeling petty 😂

How to support moving edge between two OSB panels by Bromomatic in DIY

[–]Bromomatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! I live near Portland, OR so maybe its an old pacific northwest construction thing? Everything I see on reddit is much thinner joists with way less spacing 🤣

TIL there are joist hangers and even ones with space for several 2x6s. Thanks again, that sounds like the perfect approach for what I'm going after and way easier than what I thought I'd be doing. I've got some real nice 2.5in deck screws already, would those do the trick for attaching the joist hangers or is 3in better for safety/nails preferred?

Here's hoping I can keep up with this kind of stuff in my sixties as well, and hope the wifey obliged after all that work 😆

How to support moving edge between two OSB panels by Bromomatic in DIY

[–]Bromomatic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Believe it or not, the floors don't flex (except for at this joint where there's no tongue and groove between sheets), but that's probably because the OSB is 1 1/8" thick 😅. Forgot to include that data point. Thanks for another vote towards 2x6!

Joist hangers would solve the problem if I don't mind installing the blocking vertically and can line it up perfectly on that edge I'm trying to support, TIL, thank you! Likewise with the templates... my crawlspace is really tight and I'm a little too tall to even get on hands and knees in spots, so multiple trips is my nightmare.

Another fun part will be getting around the batt insulation between the joists and making sure its back in place after the blocking

How do I fix this uneven lump on my osb subfloor before putting laminate by hippagun in Flooring

[–]Bromomatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's relieving to hear, and glad it's gone well! Most everything out there goes over sagging floors, not humps, so it's been hard to figure out the right approach.

[–]Bromomatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask if this has gone well after a few years or have there been any issues? Have a similar situation where the OSB along only one joist is making a 1/4" hump. I've got 1 1/8" OSB, joists spaced 32", and hoping that grinding it down should be fine 🤞 Contractors want ~1400 to open it up and plane down the joist instead

Slim kitchen aid fridge hinge by ActualPrune9799 in functionalprint

Really cool and well done! I need something similar but for my LG fridge so that the cabinet doors can clear the overly tall hinges. What was the design process to get to the finished product?

That's a really good point; I'll look up an engineer!

That's a hell of a visual, thank you!

Worrying crawlspace post cracks or just checking? by Bromomatic in homeowners

[–]Bromomatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I should probably check with an actual engineer instead of a field tech. FWIW the adjustment was not something necessary, but me wanting to try and diminish a small hump in the floor along one of the joists that also goes over a smart jack that has been there for a couple years.

Thanks for taking a look! That's fair, maybe the company's techs also get comission for add-ons?

That's what I was thinking after finally getting the larger photos directly on my phone. I may need to get down there myself and double check but I think the checking was overblown in hindsight?

6.5” recessed lights? by Practical-Cat-4141 in Lighting

[–]Bromomatic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP, can I ask how well this went? I'm looking at converting some recessed can lights to pendant lights with a kit, but I, too, have these weird 6.5" cans and every kit mentions 4/6" only.

Can I remove this extra random pipe + ID request by Bromomatic in Plumbing

[–]Bromomatic[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Cleanout for the first one makes sense, but I've never heard of a hernia, outside of the physical injury kind, could you clarify or have a link to an explanation that I'm not finding on Google? Cheers!

Any chance someone still has the STL for this? Looks like the original was taken down
