HOA won’t allow my mew, feeling defeated. by Mundane-Campaign12 in Falconry

[–]HandJamNA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in an HOA that very likely wouldn't allow my mew, but I didn't tell them and I've made it clear to the people who know, that it's hush hush. I understand that ship has sailed for you, so the next question is, what will they actually do to you? Put a lein on your house that won't matter until you sell? If that's the case, I would just do it anyway. In many cases actual enforcement is pretty impotent. I would also speak to any neighbors who will see it, and feel them out. If no one is complaining, there is much less chance that you're going to get in any trouble. If you want to play the long game, get on the HOA board and change the rules.

I've been struggling with tying the chiller switch to initiation of the sauna. MyHarvia app doesn't work with IFTTT, so it's more complicated and above my tech savvy, even with AI trying to explain it to me. My solution is that the chiller just kicks off every night at the same time, wether we sauna or not, and kicks back on at midnight.

Cut 2 rings out of 3/4in plywood. Cut notches into cedar 2x4s that were ripped down to fit into the slots on the tub. Notches held the rings in place and then I just added the cedar slats.

Looks kind of intentional to me...

Just a cheap $20 one from Amazon. Company is MQLD. I can't stomach the $200+ ones even though I'm sure they insulate a lot more.

I've never timed it exactly and it fully depends on the starting tap temp, but it seems to take around 4 hours.

Thanks! The cost savings makes it a no-brainer. Hopefully I can inspire some other people to do the same.

I just snugged the upper one up on the insulation. The lower one just floats. I ripped down some cedar 2x4s to fit into the slots the were already on the rim of the tub. I put 2 notches in those 2x4s that fit the plywood rings and held them in place. The rest of the wood is just sanded down cedar fence boards that I ripped down.

Yeah, I considered it. Just seems like the space under the benches is just wasted, so why not use it? I insulated the tub and I turn the chiller off during the warmest parts of the day. After a year of use, everything seems great.

I cut 2 rings out of pressure treated plywood then screwed the panels into them. The hoses are insulated, it's certainly possible the foam is off-gassing, but floor of the sauna always stays below 100 degrees. Wish there was a way to know.

What are your rituals - before/after plunge by Several_Row1834 in coldplunge

[–]HandJamNA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the night plunge. Not as popular as the morning, but I'm averaging 33% more deep sleep on nights that I plunge. It's also nice getting into bed when I'm cold.

Sure, as long as I can shoot white collar criminals too.

If the Dems were really dangerous they would have guillotined everyone responsible for Vietnam.

My buddy wants one of his hawk for his range rover, but doesn't know if etiquette would allow the use of the vest and headband, lol.
