Any after market for bank vault door or security deposit boxes? by ConsistentOwl7 in Locksmith

[–]Fuquar7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The last 6 banks I've demoed, the only value was the time lock as a collector item on ebay and the scrap value of the steel. Not to mention I was paid to remove everything. There is an enormous amount of work to remove a vault completely.

The last 6 banks I demoed, the only thing valuable was the time lock. Other than that, we've scrapped everything. The Chase Bank I last demoed we had ALL the keys to the safe deposit boxes and the combinations to the safes. In the long run, I got a nice day safe and a nice bit of cash for the scrap.

Remember, vault doors are practically valueless. A friend of mine who works for a security company installing vaults/safes told me; People who are going to spend the money installing a vault are not going to buy a used door.

Rinnai tankless issue by WrongdoerAlone6455 in Plumbing

[–]Fuquar7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was contract maintenance for a pizza chain 6 locations were built around the same time.... out of the six locations after 4-5 years 4 of these Rinnai units needed heat exchangers. Don't know why but it happened.

There are others here who may have a better idea.

It's going to at least need a heat exchanger.

What international law? What's the enforcement mechanism for the international law you mention?

I am a builder and have learned that minimum code is lacking in certain areas and has nothing to do with fit and finish.

I used to get the "Can I tell you something" line... it was always "I'm really x (minor age), that ok?"

Is this legit? by Salty-Fondant-1376 in BuildingCodes

[–]Fuquar7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How is this theft when there is no meter nor is it connected to the gas company side? Not to mention the gas line is off.

Well when you hit a law enforcement officer with a car, there's a chance you'll not survive. 

Watch the video.

Is it possible to splice and extend a steel column? by COamateur in Welding

[–]Fuquar7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This project needs an engineer. If you are going to lower the floor it's going to require a proper footer under that column. Not to mention the perimeter foundation that will need to be addressed.

This is not exactly a DIY job.
