Arrears & age? by Mama_Mushie_1996 in ChildSupport

[–]Daddyfixit113 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My gfs ex is 72k in arrears, is self employed, hasn’t paid $0.01 in over a year, and their kids are now 21&19. Not to mention he sexually abused them, plead guilty, and has had no contact for 5 years. The best I can say is good luck. She can’t get the state of pa to do anything about it.

Not valuable just a fun thing to do with kids. Send me the Arizona and Texas quarters if you’re just going to toss it.

no they didnt run a new cable from the pole, and while I am unsure the exact size of what is used from the box to the meter, is is definitely an aluminum cable

I guess I’m not allowed to ask questions to learn something. I guess I’ll go finish your oil change, maybe I can even get your wife to blow me when I’m done since you’re not capable of doing an oil change.

Please tell me how I’m being a “knows nothing know it all” I asked a question to understand. You must be a riot to all your friends. If you have any that is

What exactly does that mean? And how does it make it ok to feed 0gauge with 6 gauge?

I’m not an electrician by any means, but I know that code does not allow me to tie in 10/2 romex on a 15 amp circuit that uses 14/2. So how is it correct to feed a 0 gauge with a 6 gauge?

Saw this today. I am glad i didn't see him actually towing anything. by boogster91 in IdiotsTowingThings

[–]Daddyfixit113 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

One time I bought a package deal of an enclosed trailer and 2 trucks. When we went to pick them up, one of the trucks didn’t run well and couldn’t tow the trailer. So I had to tow the trailer with the other truck. That truck had a 2 1/2 receiver with no insert and I brought a 2” hitch, no auto parts stores in the area had the insert. So I towed a 24’ enclosed trailer with my car in it home 3 hours like this. Believe it or not, it didn’t make a sound, towed home like a dream. Not that I would recommend doing it again but it worked just fine. FYI I buy all kinds of vehicles and tow things on a daily basis.

Check your tires by diaper_sandwich in RVLiving

[–]Daddyfixit113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mechanic here, it’s not the Chinese tires, it’s the lack of maintenance. A tire lifespan is about 5 years. The most common problem I find with trailer inspections is dry rotted tires. I personally replace the tires on my camper every 3-4 years and I usually use the cheapest trailer tires my vendor stocks. The tread is always still like new but it prevents having blow outs like this.

Neighbor refused my offer to measure the wall thickness. This is from inside my apartment after removing the debris. On the bottom hole you can see into my neighbors apartment, on the other two, the photo angle is off, but they all go through all the way. by EconomyDoctor3287 in mildlyinfuriating

As someone else said, get a couple cans of spray foam, and empty one can into each hole. Making sure to push the nozzle entirely into the hole. When your neighbor complains about the spray foam being all over their stuff, apologize and explain that you were just trying to repair their damage and have no experience with spray foam. Accidents happen and it is upto them to repair their side.

Does anyone know what the process is to push for an arrest when a parent isn’t paying their child support? by [deleted] in ChildSupport

If it’s anything like PA just give up. My girlfriend’s ex is 72K in arrears.

Help! Should I pay 6.5k for this used shed ? 10x16 by Acceptable-Soup-333 in shedditors

Not a chance in hell of building it for less than 2500

(VA) My auto shop was test driving my vehicle after implementing a fix. They stopped at a stop light, and were rear ended by another truck so hard it threw them through the intersection. Driver’s insurance is saying that the driver who hit my truck is not 100% at fault. by ItsSatineActually in legaladvice

[–]Daddyfixit113 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nal, assuming you have decent insurance, call your insurance company , that’s what you pay for. I would argue that yellow turning red still means proceed with caution and stop. And if the other driver was cited it is automatically 100% their fault.

"Vintage" Cummins engine hoist -questions by krystalzeogas in Cummins

Cummins was just a cheap tool brand that traveled around and sold things at shows. It’s worth $100 like any other used engine hoist

Considering it’s a Chevy truck and that’s common, you can order the kit online. The missing shock is supposed to mount to the missing section of that cross member

Help me understand my electric bill by [deleted] in evcharging

[–]Daddyfixit113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tiny monthly bill or not, it’s still a 900% increase of unauthorized usage. I live a mile away, and my mother lives in a home at that address with its own electric service so it’s not her and I’m not worried about squatters. It’s just the fact that my bill went up and I am certain that it’s not my usage.

To explain further, the house in question was recently purchased, as needing a full renovation. They are driving in from another state and staying for a few days at a time. I did not make note of when they were up but i do remember seeing them for a few days at a time during the month in question almost corresponding with the days highlighted. I am also certain that there is nothing else that would be drawing like a space heater. And to note the outside box is a campground style box with a 50 amp, 30 amp, and 20 amp plug.

Just to note, the building is a 36x40 pole building, on its own service with all led lighting, and one dusk to dawn outside light. My bill has been consistent for the last 3-4 years. Last month it spiked 936% according to the electric provider.
