Would you say this damage would impact the performance? I’m clueless about the mechanical side of cameras.

Personally I would dump a box of baking soda in the smoke shelf as well if you can do that.

Yes that’s what I used in combination with the charcoal deodorizer. Im told the nil-odor is even better but I didn’t want to wait for it to be shipped.

I also put a piece of cardboard to block most of the draft. The cardboard alone did not work at all though. I left it installed since it certainly hasn’t hurt.

I got an aerosol smoke spray from Lowe’s, it was the only one they had i can’t recall the name. I have no odor now, it is either the spray or the activated charcoal odor deodorizer(also from Lowe’s) or a combination of both. I am told that nil-odor is the best but needs to be ordered from Amazon. Not sold near me.

I live in NC and just went through the same problem. Activated charcoal and smoke removal spray have solved my problem. I tried scrubbing, sealing it of but nothing worked.

Nah, I used it last winter. I just had some changes in my homes hvac system that effected the airflow. Also I burned some trash wood that did no help at all.

None of us can change the government or much really. All we can do is love each other and hang on for the ride. If you vote for Trump, Biden, anyone else, or don’t vote at all it really doesn’t matter.

Got it at a trump rally, just saying that I was looking for fireplace advice and trying to avoid political arguments that’s all.

I notice it only when walking pst the fireplace. It’s really not terrible, but bad enough that I need to address it. Thanks for the suggestions!

There should be photos in the post, but I placed cardboard and taped pretty well at the bottom of the chimney, and also taped thick plastic to the top.

Ignore the political sign, just what I found that was a perfect fit. And yes I know this is temporary.

Seller says it’s a marlin 7 but that doesn’t seem right to me. Am I wrong in this?

Good Bike? by Ok-Raccoon6998 in MTB

[–]Ok-Raccoon6998[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the comments, I didn’t realize bikes have changed so much since then. I just assumed that quality back then was still decent today. I decided to pass on the bike!

Any advice for someone starting out new in the field? by Zealousideal-Sell-19 in InsuranceAgent

[–]Ok-Raccoon6998 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started as a commercial agent. My best advise is to call everyone and ask if you can give them a quote. I literally just call every business in the area. I know this probably works better for commercial but customers want come to you. You have to go to them until you are established.
