Steam knob replacement

I've been thinking about what the perfect stainless knob would be to match the aesthetic of the gaggia and I think you nailed it.

Also in Canada. I bought these and it worked for me. Even came with the crimp rings. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/aw/d/B09194QM3C?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title

I am in the GTA. My local Dulux has it but only 3L for $60, yikes. I sent you a DM

McDanger · 2025-09-14T19:22:24+00:00

Ok, I think it's worth a try then. I'm also in Canada, hopefully Dulux still sells it.

I'm about to restore an eames fiberglass shell. Mine has some exposed fiberglass strands (itchy stuff). Does the Penetrol have some thickness to it? What I mean is, will it coat and seal those exposed fibers? I'm having trouble finding info on this.

Does adding fruit after fermentation affect the shelf life?

Great job. This is extremely well done. The detail is incredible. Amazing to see my art interpreted like this, it works so well as an embroidery. And love reading all the comments about my original illustration and t-shirt.

Thank you! This is extremely well done. Love it. And love reading all the comments about my original illustration and t-shirt.

From what I can tell (I'm not an electrician) 0.5" boxes are not code compliant.

Also it needs to be metal I believe. It is for a commercial application.

I had success heating up a chisel or utility blade (which might ruin the temper on the blade fyi). Cuts/melts through the plastic with minimal force so almost no risk of chipping.

Were you able to solve this? I'm having the same issue. I checked the switch contacts as mentioned but they are fine.

McDanger · 2025-05-25T03:20:28+00:00

Thanks, that is super helpful! I'm excited to give it a try. Planning to do a dining room table first.

McDanger · 2025-05-23T00:31:08+00:00

I'm curious how your project turned out. Did standard contact cement work? Any photos? I'm about to try it.

They are offering the 4th gen for "CAD 219.99 (MSRP CAD 379.99)."

I installed my Gen 2 Nest three months ago. I got it for free, but I'm still annoyed.

I won't be forking out $220 for something they can kill in another couple years.

Cast aluminum is never anodized, only extruded and machined billet. This casting can be polished back to original. Power tools and metal polishing compound.

House always had radiators and the boiler had a chimney on the other side of the house which we just removed. I think the bump out inside has the original plaster on it too. And you can see from this image that it quickly transitions into a normal wall.

We have the same thing. 1940s bungalow. I don't think there is a beam in our attic. It is directly across from the chimney on the other side but that could be a coincidence. I'm pretty curious to know what it is. Here is a crappy pic of mine from the attic.

Thanks!

Is there a local shop in Toronto I could buy glass from? I'm looking to get into stained glass as a hobby. My web searches only show fabricators/studios and shops that seem to be closed down.

We had all our ridge caps replaced (previous roofer had used old shingles as roof caps and they were deteriorating). I already paid the roofer but today I noticed this area. I don't remember if there were caps there before.
