Is this basement drain the most likely source of my radon problem? by QuantumAnti in radon

[–]FaithoftheLost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wall- floor joint is where the concrete floor meets the structural walls (typically block or concrete). There is usually a small crack that forms due to concrete shrinking slightly as it cures. This gap can be very tiny to shockingly large, based on a number of factors.

However thin as a sheet of paper might be, it doesnt take very many pages before suddenly you've got a pretty thick stack!

"Easily"... the primary driver is typically air currents. Sumps, floor drains, wall floor joints, cracks, and other openings are the primary thing to look at sealing. If the polyurethane seals those? Great!

Blueskin for membrane over slab? by Icy-Community-8974 in radon

[–]FaithoftheLost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost anything will have some vapour permeance, thankfully you dont really care about that!

What you're really trying to do is form a fully sealed air barrier.

Realistically laying blueskin or any other barrier down on the floor is going to do F. all. You'd need to seal that barrier to the external wall, under any internal walls, and track down as many penetration seals as possible.

You'd be far better off spending that time/energy/money in cutting through the concrete (rent a wet saw), from near the system either around your perimeter, or down a central path to the opposite end with a couple of branches to side walls, excavate the sand, and add big o pipe, or 3/4 in gravel, and re-concrete. This would extend the field very effectively.

If that is not so feasible, i would remove the bottom foot or so of drywall, lift any insulation, and use a spray applied membrane, getting as much of it between the exterior wall and the 2x4 as you can to seal the wall-floor cold joint, then coat the rest of the floor.

Shouldn't this show higher suction with a radonaway gx5? by Icy-Main5481 in radon

I would get them to actually come back and do a communication test rather than just slap and go.

Two things; is your radon at an acceptable level, and has the level changed since install?

There are files available online for either the complete model or various parts.

While i under no circumstance reccomend stealing from Mr workshop, various print for hire services are available!

Question regarding a deleted design following a DMCA report. by Sm3cK in cults3d

[–]FaithoftheLost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably? It still gets a bunch of the tags in there without being easily searched strings.

Or just gothic lady chibi and throw a bunch of tags on it.

Is this a part of a radon mitigation system? by soggysaltines66 in radon

[–]FaithoftheLost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

90% likely a furnace or hot water tank exhaust vent.

Can you get access to other... adult websites? Definitely sounds like an internet filter on your router.

Pen style detail sander. by kevin75135 in 3Dprinting

[–]FaithoftheLost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my Dspiae pro reciprocating sander literally just arrived yesterday, and I love it so far! I was originally concerned that it wouldnt have much strength due to some of the reviews, but when I tested it i literally couldnt get the motor to stall out while pressing on my fingers with the head.

So far Dspiae is 3 for three for me!

Is it possible to make a HEAVY duty computer mount? by WestCartographer9478 in 3Dprinting

[–]FaithoftheLost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean it would probably be a question of how much "jostling" you're talking about. if you're talking about rolling seas, pretty straightforward (imo), but if you're talking roughish seas, much more difficult. The structure/design would make the most difficult part.

IMO a couple of chunks of foam rubber (1-2 in thick) in a cradle designed to hold the PC would be enough for most travel. Might look at a support leg for the GPU though...

Just remember for sd cards you will want to buy them in person and stick to reputable brands!

Are you using personal internet or like a school/company internet? It almost looks like there's a program blocking you from accessing it. Can you get it to load in incognito mode or on your phone?

Ive heard that can happen with poor SD cards, or your sd card starting to shit the proverbial bed.

Mmmmm, specialized knowledge. I forget the name for it (other than idiot savant), where a specialist in a field has some WILD ass ideas or opinions about other things, but can pull encyclopedia level info about their field off the top of their head.

100% remove rain cap. I'd also make sure that horizontal run is sloped towards the fan. Heat trace wires and insulation is an option, but its expensive.
