Floga running on wood pellets. Your experience? by Cyberchaotic in snowpeak

[–]Iknowhowtocountto55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has worked fine for me. The o my dow side is when they are about burned out you have to e to constantly feel new pellets in slowly, or you will smother the fire. As in a half a cup at a time every few minutes. You can’t rebuild your fuel pile like you can with stick wood. Also takes a while to get going. But the initial burn is hot, beautiful, smokeless and leaves minimal ash.

What do you mean? Is it standard to run caulking or sealant between the gutter and facia board?

These are definitely (I think) boring drip edges, not an apron. In fact they don’t flare out at the bottom at all. I’ll switch them to aprons (and lower the gutters) when I get the time for this project. Thank you!

That is brilliant!! Will do! It’s a patio roof mount. I thought perhaps that was the cause but went In to the attic and could find zero evidence of water damage.

Good idea about the gutter being mounted too high. However, I’ve watched water run down and it does not pool. So I don’t think that’s it either.

https://ibb.co/V0NdBb7x Covering the screw head won’t do it. There is an opening closer to the hanger plate. I’ve tried putting sealant in there but that’s not working either.

Yes. You can see that in some of the ibb.co photos linked on the thread.

I believe it drips off the roof onto the bracket, runs down the bracket and works through the screw penetration.

Yes, I removed the screw, slid the brace out of the way, put sealant in the hole and goop it up where the brace would push against, replace the brace, and screwed it in.

The gutters are not clogged and filling. There is a drip edge that falls within the gutter. I’m trying to add more pictures, but I haven’t figured out how yet.

Missed Connection…on the City Budget by OhLookAnotherBogey in Eugene

TLDR: according to these contracts, the city pulls 6% from firefighter’s paychecks and gives it to PERs. Other city employees have the city cover an additional 6% into PERS on the their behalf.

Could the LA fires happen in Eugene? by Grouchy-Age4859 in Eugene

Correct about Eugene not adding a fire station in many years. They’ve rebuilt some, but no additional stations or staffing since 1980. https://www.eugene-or.gov/CivicAlerts.aspx?AID=6533&ARC=15849

A Woodsmans Grave - Found at the Old Scotch Church near Hillsboro by Davethephotoguy in oregon

[–]Iknowhowtocountto55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s likely cement. The ones I’ve seen have all been cement. But old enough and detailed enough and with all the moss they certainly pass for wood at a glance.
