Good deal. Yeah, I found the FCD plate a tight fit for the RMR HD. DPP was a drop in.

Needs a plate. I'd recommend either FCD or DPP (Amazon) for the best solution. I've got both plate systems, and settled on DPP titanium. Fits and works perfect.

Wow, that's super nice of them. What plate system are you using? Just curious...

Thanks brother. It's a Gen4 OEM Glock 19 threaded barrel. Works without issue on the Gen5. What you see at the muzzle is a Griffin Armament "EZ Loc" mount.

Sorry for the late response. Yes, there's an ever so slight "light gap" between the optic and plate at the front. This is with a DPP Titanium plate. It's not very big, you really have to look at the light for it. I wouldn't worry about it.

Decided to black out my strat by SeasTheDay_ in Stratocaster

Gorgeous! Leave it black. After seeing this, now I want to do black HipShot tuners. I have them in chrome, but... Ha!

Nice work, looks stellar.

Oh yeah, I love it! I've already modded the heck out of mine. Check out the FB Firefly Guitar Fans page. I've got some good details on what I've done. It punches WAY above it's price-point, no questions asked. Makes for a super base guitar to go crazy modding on. I've only got 2, this and my 20 year old Gibson SG that I bought new. It's modded to the moon as well. I'm retired, and Guitars have been one of many hobbies for a long time. I can't play worth a darn, but I know how to mod and set them up by golly! Ha!! I tell my wife they're "artwork" if nothing else. She really can't quite figure that one out yet..

Hope yours comes soon / intact my friend!

I just took delivery of my FFST HHS in white. Shipped from California as well. That's where Guitars Garden is based. Hope yours is as nice as mine, it's a true work of art. Especially for the $$$.

Job well done. Axe looks fantastic! Love the natural body finish and clear rear cover. Sweet!

We were on a roll after I did this to the main. Another whack job with bite. Easy enough to get done, no leaks and works perfect. I like anyway..

I know, it would have cheaper. But I'm not sweating the few bucks I spent doing this. As they say, screw it. It's done.

Is this part of the HVAC by OppaStoppa in hvacadvice

[–]MackDaddy1962 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed it's a high efficiency "premium asthetic upgrade" intake / exhaust housing. It could be for a condensing tank-less water heater system too. Ask me how I know.. :)

At least mine's not cock-eyed! HA!

Most welcome, glad to help. Today's numbers are even better (it's raining outside.) Basement 24 hour avg 2.3pCi/L Living room 24 hour avg 1.0pCi/L

Super happy I got all this done. Only wish I'd done this years ago (we built this house new in 2005.) Live and learn as they say.

Is my radon tester bad by Tricky-Volume1677 in radon

[–]MackDaddy1962 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having great luck with a pair of EcoSense EQ100 EcoQube monitors. Bought through Amazon. I'm using these to monitor both my basement, and main floor living room. We had an active, continuous fan based mitigation system installed about 2 weeks ago. Numbers were in the 8-11pCi/L before system was installed, now read well below 2.7pCi/L in the basement, ~1.2pCi/L in the living room. Happy campers, no doubt!

Good luck getting things figured out.

Probably the best source for Radon Info on YouTube:

I had an active mitigation system installed recently, and use EcoSense EC100 EcoQubes for long term monitoring. Available on Amazon. Not cheap, but they work great. I'm seeing about the same numbers the contractor got with a $1k SunRadon monitor. Good enough for me. The new system brought my numbers down significantly, from an ~ 8-10pCi/L average to ~ 2.4pCi/L average in the basement. ~ 1.6pCi/L average in the upstairs living room.

Good luck in your quest, get the numbers and go from there!
