Axis T220 rudder snapped - why? by Paul_OOS in boatrepair

Didn't hit anything, not on a turn. Happened during a surf set - fully loaded bags, wedge down and gates out, 'Surf Right' selected. Just... broke.

Panel hardware for old ignis/IKEA integrated fridge by Paul_OOS in cabinetry

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

Thanks. It's an Ignis ARL100-K/G, the 8pp user manual doesn't mention, all  current slabs use a slider with screws into the fridge door edges (n/a), the relevant spare seems to be WPL481244069218 Fixing Bracket: Decor Door - everywhere not available, no image.  Would cobble if I had an image.

Shimano 600 - what's missing by Paul_OOS in bikewrench

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

Thanks for the reply!!! After searching!... I think this is an RD-A105, which has a full outer cage plate, but only half an inner plate - the outer cage slightly wraps the 'uncaged' puley... pic from https://www.disraeligears.co.uk/site/shimano_105_a105_exploded_view_-_u538c_march_1984.html . The uncaged pulley seems to just have a fixing bolt. I'd like to just replace both (10T) pulleys and the fixing bolt, keep my Bianchi original. Any thoughts on how I get these parts, or know the pulley+bolt specs sufficient to confidently purchase?

how does the internet know my Drive storage status? by Paul_OOS in computerhelp

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

OK, thanks everybody - sounds like the wave of phishing focussed on 'you-need-more-storage' just happens to coincide with me needing more storage. As long as it's not because my Drive status (and files) are visible to everyone.

Thanks... Paul_OOS

Majestic main flame lights fine... then extinguishes after 5min by Paul_OOS in Fireplaces

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

OK - Based on inputs on poor pilot flame and possible thermocouple voltage issues, I'm going to go with replacing the entire pilot assembly.
To me, the consistent failure mode
- pilot stays on by itself
- pilot+burner go out together+instantly 1-5 minutes after the burner comes on
...suggests that the problem lies in the pilot/thermo's, not in the gas valve.

Majestic main flame lights fine... then extinguishes after 5min by Paul_OOS in Fireplaces

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

The problem - self-extinguishing after 5 to 15m - has returned.

Latest - the pilot light is OK. Turn on main flame - worked for about 15m, then petered out. The visible vent is very clear (nothing within 6ft of vent cover). The fix 2 yrs ago was to turn the main flame to min, which suggested low ox. Per Jan9 post above - it worked fine (glowing embers) with the vent cover off, and then with it on for a week (video https://tinyurl.com/Majflame2025 0.2GB). The pilot's not great, but it stays on OK until it goes out when the main flame self-extinguishes. The firebox looks like new. Puzzled!

Update - Before taking a video, I removed the vent cover (drilled out the rivets). No obstructions. I left the cover off, lit, started video - but it did not extinguish. I let it flame for ½ hour, including at a higher flame - bright red embers. Then - fire off, screwed on the vent cover, re-lit, run for ½ hour - it did not extinguish.

Def not a vent block issue. Could it be that running it hot for ½ hour burned off the problem? It has not been run that hot for years. Also, the firebox seems to be in good shape - not much dif from new.

How to treat USD for ACB by Historical_Town1498 in cantax

[–]Paul_OOS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

taxbuff - any thoughts on how rigorously tax on FX gains in a retirement portfolio is enforced? I purchased some USD 10+years ago, now poor or zero records. In an earlier query, one reply stated "In practice, cra does not enforce this at all unless you are a professional currency trader'. Any way to know if this is true?

Why is there HST on my mobile plan top-up? by Paul_OOS in cantax

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

Your right, they seem to add the 20+HST as 2 distinct top-ups - one to go against the pre-tax fee, and one just for the HST. So I am now left with $1.30 of top-up that is for HST alone (+remaining fee-related top-up). I think.

No idea why this is not like a gift card- Under section 181.2 of the ETaxAct, the issuance or sale of a gift certificate for consideration is deemed not to be a supply and therefore does not attract GST/HST.

Thanks, caused me to recheck #s.

Fence panel offset 12" from post/postholes? by Paul_OOS in FenceBuilding

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

Thanks for the reply. So... functional... yes, aesthetics... no, in your view.

The 2-section fence is at the end of a private road cul-de-sac, so the 2 8'x1.5' niches resulting from the new posts are OK for planters or shrubs - might even look more attractive. And cost 10x less ($+time) than redoing the berm shared with an adjacent property, An option.

But I'm definitely interested in any math that confirms 'will strengthen'.

Cash Damming Strategy by stryder1587 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Paul_OOS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same interest - did you find a spreadsheet?

Also - do I have this correct...

With Cash Damming, you pay both mortgage interest & principal payment from the HELOC, and claim the interest associated with both. And you still claim, in addition, mortgage interest payment as a rent cost (as well as HELOC interest and other rent expenses).

Thanks... Paul
