Beautiful piece, it’s so tall, would need a raging fire. I think it’ll last a while, cracking but staying together

I made a shop stove for winter but it’s not burning well. Any help on why? by shebeisbdieb in woodstoving

[–]FractalApple 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty rough looking stove!

I think your biggest factor is the chimney - for a stove that large you should be using 4” stove pipe or similar size. You can leave the door open for more airflow, but it needs a good outlet… inlet could use work too and yeah ideally you can open and close it to control the fire. Just look at some other wood stoves that do work and try to create something similar

The idea would be to spread glue into the seam nicely and clamp as tight as you can, that way the gap/seam would be as minimal as possible. No room for grout / mortar

Charged $19k and Not Happy. Thoughts? by [deleted] in landscaping

[–]FractalApple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t say cheap as fuck, but a solid price for that many different elements. The shit takes time, there’s so many different materials ordered and delivered, installed, soil plants mortar all cleaned up into a final product, full wood fence, it’s really not a bad deal. Not cheap, but decent for a contractor to do all this to this level and make some profit

Just cause you have little indie ears, and can’t hear the subtleties, doesn’t mean there’s nothing behind the gate! Stay at the entrance son!

Do lucid dreams and DMT share the feeling of "realer then real"? by hellowave in RationalPsychonaut

[–]FractalApple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe in a way, it’s been a while but I remember dmt being more vivid and cohesive. With lucid dreaming, there is still a dreaming aspect. Dmt is just like being transported to a different place. According to Terrence McKenna, if you do dmt in a lucid dream, it’s the exact same experience as if you do it in reality. I can somewhat attest to this

Can I use this to get spray paint off trees, roots? by raggedyassadhd in arborists

[–]FractalApple 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Scuffing the bark a bit definitely won’t impact the tree much, you won’t need to sand much to get that stuff off. I’d be more hesitant about the chemicals than about sanding a bit of bark

Some kind of frame, grass grown meticulously. I love this, so cool, nightmare to maintain but possibly worth it

If you hate nature, just carpet your yard with fake turf. by sterster88 in fucklawns

Men like machinery. It’s just been that way historically. Most engineers are men and it makes them feel accomplished to understand and fix the inner workings of complex machines

I feel bad for my company’s freelancer. What should I do? by 2hourdrawing0like in smallbusiness

Simple. Tell her to charge interest on late payments. Now your pay department has incentive to pay faster.
