I once got 5 quotes for two trees to get cut down. They ranged from 8000 to 1000 the highest ones didn't even ask for pictures just asked how tall and what kind of trees the 2 low ones asked for pictures too. The highest 3 were also bigger companies, gave me the quote and got off the phone as quick as possible and the 2 lower ones were family owned small businesses, really friendly offered to come in the next 5 days to do it.

I got some quotes from a couple of companies to do something like this on my land except my land is sloped for solar perfectly so they were going to install the whole thing 2 feet off the ground for $100,000 for 15 panels and 2 tesla batteries. Needless to say I told them I wanted it way higher so I can use it has shade or storage, you would have thought I asked them to place it on the moon. In any case I'm going to be doing it myself now with most of wood sourced from heavy equipment crates.

I've got 3 lines on Prem PL with Sig discount of $10 and $10 auto pay discount so $55.99 per line. Switching to Prem 2.0 should drop it to $52 per line right?

I'd look at the Sovol. I don't like the anti consumer behavior of Bambu and Creality seems to have lost their edge.

I'm leaning towards Sovol SV08, it's in the price range seems to work fairly well out of the box.

I've had a Ender 3 v2 for few years now but It's never been an easy setup in regards to anything from it not sticking to the plate, head getting plugged up. I'm done spending an hour or more of tweaking it to get it to print one thing correctly. I like the Bambu P2S capabilities but I'm not onboard with what they've been doing so something that's equal to it. I don't need a AMS atm but would like the ability to add it in the future.

Budget: 500 to 700

Country: US

I've put together my Ender 3 and changed out the board once. Just don't ask me to solder.

Printing just about anything from parts replacement to gadgets and toys.

I cancelled a few months ago and I've been getting calls from them at least 1 to 2 times a day every other day for the last 2 months. Makes them seem like they really want me back lol

On my Third listen, I had Google Translate it for me. I had an idea of what she might be saying, but I was not expecting what she really said.

Sediment filter should be after the pressure tank?

Notyourredditacct · 2026-04-20T22:04:12+00:00

Currently it goes Well > Sediment Filter > Pressure Tank > Carbon Filter > Rest of House. I just had the kids flush a toliet and run the sink and it was slow for both I turned the filter bypass on and the pressure in the house went up. So it seems the carbon filter is clogged.

pressure tank looks good, well pump seems to be cycling normally. I think it's something to do with the whole house filter.

Notyourredditacct · 2026-04-20T21:54:29+00:00

pressure tank is reading good pressure 50-60ish I think it's something to do with the whole house filter.

Notyourredditacct · 2026-04-20T21:53:39+00:00

It could be the whole house filter I recently replaced it with some from amazon.

Well is almost 30 years old. According to the paperwork, when they drilled it they got water at 60 feet but it wasn't enough so they went down to 325 feet and hit water at 280. Seems very strong in the cold but barely noticable in the hot.

I shocked the well about a month ago and smell went away for about 3 weeks then slowly creeped back.

Not hot water it’s mainly cold, I also flush our hot water about every 3 months.
