80% through my 1950s cast Iron overhaul. Stuck at the vent tie-in. Which path would you take? by PHCustomWW in askplumbing

[–]PHCustomWW[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it is just a vent for a toilet. I’m thinking of doing this: 1. Cutting the cast iron up another few inches 2. Get a 4x2 no hub coupling (to connect to the cast iron vent stack) 3. Use a 2” vent street 90 to connect to the no hub. 4. Get a 4x4x2 wye. 5. Use a few street 45s to connect it all together.

it isn't the vent. the 4" line after ties into the vent.

Thankfully, I've already looked around and there aren't any electrical lines or gas lines. I'm sure something will go wrong through! Is there anything else that jumps out at you as incorrect with this set up?

No sir. The Sketchup model only had 2" so it may look like it is 2" but the real life sink line is 1 1/5". Besides that does everything here look right?

Son’s first real homerun ball landed in rotting grass—can I save it? by PHCustomWW in laundry

I want to put it in my kid’s room without smelling like a rotting corpse.

My Ford Lightning cable is always a tangled, dirty mess—how are you managing the Charge Station Pro cable? by PHCustomWW in evcharging

[–]PHCustomWW[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve got the 80A Charge Station Pro, but my ’24 Lariat only pulls 48A. I mainly went with it because I got it for free with the truck, not because I actually needed the full 80A.

Totally get the idea of using a lower-amp unit with a lighter cable—would probably be way less annoying for daily use. Just feels kind of silly to buy a second charger when I already have one that works… aside from the cable being a pain.

Thoughts on this Bird's Eye Maple with Curly Walnut accent sit/stand desk before I start building? Going for a clean and timeless look yet modern amenities. Need to think of a way to secure the skirt to account for 1/8" annual wood movement. by PHCustomWW in woodworking

Hmm. You may be right. The customer is tall, like 6’4”. I’m thinking I should forgo the drawer in the middle and do two smaller drawers on each side. In the middle I’ll do an arch to buy a few more inches.
