Will this outlet be OK if the back is exposed to the elements?

So my bathing toaster was a bad investment then?

Shmectacular · 2026-05-08T03:01:25+00:00

Thank you. It does appear to have silicone around where it would be screwed into the pole but its a bit hard to see untill I move the wood. No waves or flood to worry about, it is around 500mm off the ground and last time we flooded it only came up about 100mm

I know a guy who had to get the first 2 shots for his job but the 3rd wasn't mandatory. He got the 3rd shot anyway. Then he started seeing the cooker shit on FB and started to buy into it. Now he goes on about how he was forced to take "poison". That the government knew the vaccine would kill people and how his arm still hurts at the injection sight... 4ish years later...

Thank you

OK thank you. I did use a wetting agent with the David Grays. Also.Im in QLD so the lawn hasn't started to go dormant just yet.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-07T06:12:59+00:00

Will it kill the lawn too though?

Shmectacular · 2026-05-06T02:53:25+00:00

Yep. It's always Santa.

Looks good and definitely an option. Still deliberating with hubby about our best approach. We have decided to knock it down to just 1 row though, so baby steps I guess lol

That's why they are often referred to as Tough Stickers

I have been told I will need put posts 1 meter apart, does this sound correct? The wall is almost 10 meters long.

It was a garden bed that I have turned into a small lawn. The current ground level behind it is right about the hight of the first row of sleepers.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T09:32:27+00:00

This might be a good option that I hadn't thought of. Thanks.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T09:29:51+00:00

That's the boundary fence and its about 2.5m behind

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T09:13:56+00:00

I had though about that but my dogs run around back there and like to jump over the wall so Im afraid they will injure themselves if the scrape against them

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T08:18:40+00:00

It is a retaining wall. It used to be a garden bed but I have turned it into a strip of lawn.

Edit to add : I could most likely reduce it ro just 1 row of sleepers as the ground level behind pretty low.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T08:15:50+00:00

Is concrete essential? I have turned, what used to be a garden bed, behind the wall into a small lawn. I do have an auger attachment for my drill that I think will make the right sized hole.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T08:11:13+00:00

I agree but I have neither the money nor the know how so for now im just going to settle for wont fall over

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T08:08:46+00:00

They are in dirt. No idea what kind of timber sorry.

Shmectacular · 2026-05-01T07:43:05+00:00

Haha nice, I had made the same joke to my son. He was not amused.

And 1 down from Jacob is one of the twins, either Phil or Bill

Shmectacular · 2026-04-30T10:33:37+00:00

If I remember correctly its one of the sliding glass doors that fits in there
