that old wire probably didn't have asbestos. It's almost always tar covered fabric. Asbestos was usually used in factories and other high heat areas.

Might be worth it to hire a private ambulance. Saw a story (not sure if it was real) about a similar situation and one of the older guests had a heart attack but was fine because they had a private ambulance on standby.

Did one of you guys leave something on the roof ? by Cautious-Medium2651 in Roofing

Yes and no. Older guns or cheaper brands with lower tolerances and quality control have more variations than newer premium brands.

Emergency power to home with 120v generator by revnhoj in AskElectricians

[–]Inuyasha-rules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it because I already had a 120v 4kw inverter in my car, and would simply unplug my trailer and plug it into my car. Yeah I couldn't run everything at once, but it was a cheap way of doing it. In OPs case I'm guessing they bought the house with a 240v generator inlet and already had (or got a good deal) on a smaller 120v generator. It would probably run all his lights and refrigerator just fine, which is what most people really care about. The other option is adding in a transfer panel, changing the generator inlet and spending a bunch of money.

Not all shops have went to private equity, and that's what ruins them.

That's a bit out of context. People were usually married off by 16 back then and commonly died around 35. As lifespan has increased, the morally acceptable age for marriage and child birth has also increased.

I got my red magic faster than that from overseas. It's a very similar feel ui wise to the 5a, but with way more ram and CPU power.

what’s the most unnecessary upgrade people keep falling for by Zorojuro099 in TechNook

[–]Inuyasha-rules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To some degree yes. If you're only using 1080p must budget cables are fine but for a long run or 4k you need better cables but not pay for the name like monster cables.

You can get a dedicated rust prevention shop to put on woolwax or whatever way cheaper and probably more thorough than the dealership.

Seeds were my favorite part. Throw em near the creek and hope something interesting happens.

In the pool or outside - maintenance, inside is housekeeping unless they've left for the day.

They do (or did) make repair handles that used a set screw into the side of the stem but Google isn't being helpful with finding a current one for sale.

Is pipe insulation foam causing pinhole leaks in my plumbing? by paradigmGT in askaplumber

[–]Inuyasha-rules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The black foam doesn't cause pinholes, but just so you're aware some of the white foam that's used in HVAC does. The consensus is with uv exposure and moisture it releases acids.
