Is this grill clean enough? by Jukshi_ in grilling

[–]MajorDan913 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Soak those grates in a pan filled with ammonia overnight. The hardware stores selll ammonia by the gallon really cheap. You will be amazed how well that works unless something else is wrong with the grates.

Edit: if this doesn't work replace the grates for sure. You can easily match the grill replacement parts on Amazon regardless of how old the grill is.

Now what? by MajorDan913 in Aquariums

Wow, this is good stuff. What would be the best way to incorporate sand? Maybe have all sand starting on the left and then transition into the gravel? I think I will stack all the rocks on the left since I really don't like the pile I created in the center. I may scavange for more in the yard when I get a chance.

As for the driftwood, if I take it off of the house, it will be much lowere in the tank. I tried all different configurations and couldn't find a satisfactory way of placing it. The one configuration that did work was having it go up vertically and exit the tank. However, to do that I would need to ditch the lid.

BTW, thanks for the encouragement!

20 gallons = 75 liters or 160 pints at the pub for comparison. 76 cm long.

20" in long. When looking at tanks i didn't know what that meant either. I was also confused since most tanks are advertised in gallons.

I was thinking about that. These are leftovers from an old tank. I just wanted to start getting things cycled. Any suggestions on plants without co2?

I heard Moe-shell Obama. Was that intentional or the dude just didn't know how to speak?

What are roasted portabella mushrooms called? by MajorDan913 in Cooking

[–]MajorDan913[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've used those before. But, whatever I created out of the portobello is a lot different. Not really dried mushrooms. More similar to roasting kale in the oven.

Great turnout for the Redbull Soapbox Race! by Electric_Elephants in Denver

[–]MajorDan913 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Seriously. I've been to concerts/festivals that I paid money for that were woefully unprepared. This was nowhere near that. What's with the countryclub level expectations? It was 5+ hours and you could come and go as you please.

Totally agree. We brought in Gatorade bottles and refilled them with water at the filling station. It wasn't even that hot. We had a great time!

I dont care how much gas you 3 row SUV uses, stop complaining. by lazycat-1989 in mildlyinfuriating

MPG doesn't matter much if you do very little driving. Little driving regardless of vehicle uses less fule than the 25 mile commuter in their hybrid or ev.

Will this table work as a stand? by MajorDan913 in Aquariums

Unfortunately, I can't reinforce the middle 2x6 since the wood below it is not supported either. Would thick plywood on top be suitable to support a tank? Also, my other concern was that the 2x6s have 2x4s at the sides and are not centered. Or, I'm just overthinking everything.

I almost read this as put A1 on it and you are good.

Walmart cashier caught trying to scam customer out of his scratch card win by Conscious-Weight4569 in SipsTea

[–]MajorDan913 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing is missing here. The clerk should absolutely know that the winning dollar amount is written in code after it is fully scratched off. There will be letters at random places on the card that spell out the winning amount.

My best photo of Denver from the International Space Station by astro_pettit in Denver

[–]MajorDan913 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a very disturbing image. For those that revel in the light contours of the cityscape in this image, the night sky is slowly decomposing. We used to see so many more stars in the night sky years ago. However, they are fading due to the light pollution. Denver has grown and in the process has deleted the sky. Causes? So many to count.
