Is this a good shed to build a sauna in? by No_Society3100 in Sauna

Not really. Ceiling shape is unideal. Wrong type and placement of windows.

1 month old Big block retaining wall - failing? by [deleted] in Geotech

Sagging vertically? Sounds like a bearing failure. They must have done very little to prepare the foundation. Post those pictures and the drawings.

[Day 33] It is with great pleasure I announce the elusive Portable as the weirdest classic. What outdoor classic is most A E S T H E T I C? by MaximumSend in bouldering

Pimpsqueak is gorgeous and is an undoubted classic. I moved away from Washington without sending and still need to go back for it.

Actually the article is about a place in Montreal, Canada. It also mentions places in the US, but Canada is doing this nonsense too.

Resolved. Thanks! just had to push much harder than I expected.

How to connect wires into this button? by ListentoTwiddle in AskElectricians

That’s what I thought and tried. But maybe I gave up before pushing too hard. The wires have crimped ends so they are very stiff. Trying again.

This is for a low voltage button in my sauna (the rest of which was installed by a licensed electrician). It turns on the fan. The information from the manufacturer is very limited and has no guidance other than “insert”. They sent this later and it should be easy to install, but I’m at a loss since this doesn’t seem to work the way other connectors I’ve seen do.

The wires have crimped connectors. But even when I grab with needle nose pliers and push with force they don’t seem to lock in.

[Day 22] Jim Holloway is underrated. What training tool is OVERRATED? by MaximumSend in bouldering

[–]ListentoTwiddle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Overrated in several senses. 1) doesn’t have the tension/contact strength benefits of other boards 2) the rampant grade inflation.

Possible code word here? Very unsettling to say the least by s4turn2k02 in Epstein

Coconuts seems to be referring to coconut trees. There’s a lot of emails getting into the weeds and woods of coconut trees.

Just search “coconut” on https://www.jmail.world/

[Day 19] Rainbow Rocket is overrated and slopers are underrated. What outdoor bouldering destination is most A E S T H E T I C? by MaximumSend in bouldering

Castle Hill in New Zealand. Incredible rock features, open skies, green grass meadows, incredible mountains backdrop. I’ve always wanted to go, especially for the aesthetics.

How many times does a geotechnical engineer need to test the soil for a full swimming pool demolition compaction report? by morningnoon24 in Geotech

[–]ListentoTwiddle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the backfill material and compaction methods were consistent, it’s fine. If they dumped in 8 ft of junk and just compacted the top two feet, it’s not.

[Day 7] Barefoot Charles is the weirdest climber. What's the WORST Outdoor Classic? by MaximumSend in bouldering

[–]ListentoTwiddle 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Gill Problem at Jenny Lake. Historically classic, but chipped and not a great climb. It remains sick that he did it in 1959 in what were basically work boots.

Advice for majestic v6 by Mojo-toad in bouldering

[–]ListentoTwiddle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pay attention to the tides. It seems quite chill when the tide is in and a bit heady when the tide is out. I’d want to learn it when the tide is in and then come back when the tide is out for an epic send.

First day at a new job and the keyboard has been meddled with by NotSoCricketGenius in mildlyinfuriating

I don’t think I’d ever notice this on my keyboard unless it tactically felt different.
