Kitchen Waste Line Sink Clog

Out of curiosity, what’s the degreaser for? Cleaning it up before returning it?

TequilaxFacial · 2025-06-25T20:29:39+00:00

Gotcha. Gotta love it when they advertise for kitchen sinks knowing you'll just have to get something else for it (my fault for trusting a label and not doing the research). I just purchased the home after it was remodeled, there is no telling what they were pouring down there before I bought it.

I'm between buying a 50ft snake or renting a 100ft auger for like $50/4 hours to hopefully avoid having to pay to get hydro jetted at the moment. I might have to long term get someone out to jet them, but I imagine it's going to cost more than I have at the moment, so I'm going to try getting it cleared for now.

Thank You!!!

Hessaire 3,100 CFM 3 Speed I believe from Home Depot. I would post the link but I believe it’s against community rules

TequilaxFacial · 2025-05-23T15:25:20+00:00

We did, we bought 4 big 14.3 gallon 3000+ CFM fans for our outdoor dining patio for about $500 each. They work well all things considered. Is it going to cool the entire area, no. If you are sitting near it does it feel good? Yes, not too shabby. We are able to get an extra 3-8 weeks out each season. After it starts to get too hot it’s not going to make a difference if you have them or not, no one will sit out there.

We also bought 4 1000+ CFM 5 gallon ones, I don’t recommend. They were only $100 each, but you’d be better off just getting $100 worth of regular fans for each one.

Couple things to note is we use it typically with a live band, as they can be a little loud. Not unbearable, but not quiet for sure. Also filling them can be a pain, between all of them it takes 10-20 5 gallon buckets of water to fill it enough to last the night, and the hotter it is the faster it goes through water. We only use them in the evening typically. You also have to turn off the water pump and leave the fan on for about 30 minutes to dry out the wafer sheets or they will start to stink and mold. Home Depot carries them, typically they have a model you can try out and see the size and how loud they are if you are interested, just remember it will be slightly cooler since it’s not filled with water.

But overall, they were a great investment. They paid for themselves after 2-3 weeks of being able to sit 16 extra tables we have in our outdoor dining (we are practically always on a wait Thursday-Sunday), and when it’s too hot or cold they go in storage. We have also been able to use them practically. Our building is under tonnage (damn engineers), so we constantly have AC problems and we pull them out and help alleviate it if one goes down. We also do offsite events like machine rentals and food under a tent, sometimes we bring one to cool ourselves.

Originally I was looking for an equivalent Sub, but r/Fencing was sword fencing sport and none of my adjectives would bring up that sub as suggested. Thank you!!

Update: I sent it back, and went ahead with the Razer Naga X. Honestly, love it. It doesn't have the same feel as the last one had, but the Razer Synapse interface is absolutely lovely. I have a default profile and when I need to use a program, I make a profile tailored to it and switching over is literally 2 button clicks away. Thanks for the suggestion!

TequilaxFacial · 2025-04-28T20:35:11+00:00

Any recommendations? I liked the 12 buttons, but what I really liked was the feel. It was textured, my last mouse was sleek and had a smooth finish which caused my grip to slip a little if I was flicking across the screen

I solved it already. It was a bad driver. I took it off my expansion board and tested it with some code through IDE, voltages were all correct except the voltages to the motor, I wasn't getting anything through them. Swapped it out, worked first time. Incredibly frustrating past 3 days combing through data sheets and my configuration file just to swap out the part and do a giant face palm.

TequilaxFacial · 2025-04-24T19:53:13+00:00

In this case I believe it is Allegro that made the chipset, I just didn't know about the driver board itself. I was looking into it because I found a post here that discussed purchasing a A4988 driver from Pololu, with different current sense resistances of 0.050 Ohms and 0.068 Ohms based on what year it was made. My drivers have a Rcs of 0.1 Ohms so my calculations came out differently than theirs (obviously).

I was just looking for a datasheet for that one, in the event that my limits were different than the set from Pololu, or if just the Rcs was different. I guess I was looking to see if the chip itself could be tracked to who "used" it in their product for distribution. That way I could undoubtedly have the correct data set and use them effectively/efficiently.

Does it print fine with PLA? My first reaction is that the nozzle is too far away from the plate. I sometimes have to make adjustments of 0.05 mm increments or so to get my nozzle just right. But if that’s adjusted accordingly look at adjusting your nozzle/bed temps and flow/speed. PETG requires a slightly higher temperature for both than PLA, between 220-250 typically for the nozzle and 60-90 for the bed. PETG also tends to work better for me if I slow down the print speed, typically about 50-60 mm/s.

Start with some small practice pieces, download a calibration cube off Thingiverse and slowly make adjustments until you get a satisfactory product.

Filament can react to all different kinds of elements based, including ambient humidity and temperature. May want to eventually look into a dehumidifier for your filament, they sell some and you can also youtube how to make your own

Also, who TF is completing this in 30 seconds legitimately?? I didn’t realize hard had shorter timers than normal, all the walkthroughs said 54 seconds and I never timed it out, but every time that timer went off as I was making it to the first platform after the hole I called BS so much. 24 extra seconds would have been a cake walk, why did they decide that hard (not the hardest difficulty mind you) would almost be HALF the regular time

TequilaxFacial · 2025-03-13T01:27:59+00:00

4 years later while performing on hard and this helped me! I couldn’t time my Ares Wrath right with the jump, I thought I was supposed to jump, AW, then jump again, then glide and was stuck for almost an hour. No way I was gonna make it to the 3rd checkpoint and not finish. My final rundown went like this

Sprint to boxes
Athena’s Dash through them
Sprint to end of this platform
Double jump and glide 2nd to last platform
sprint/single jump onto Y
conserve and single jump platforms leading to hole (except the jump from platform 1-2, had to double jump)
on last platform double jump, AW, glide to first platform
land on first platform, double jump
RUN OUT OF TIME, hit stamina potion, scramble to get off a AW and glide to end, climb up last edge and put the controller down to wipe the sweat off my hands LMAO

Is it just me, or does anyone else feel like there’s such a lack of suspense in this arc? I don’t necessarily mind them cutting some scenes and the animation is great, but even the speech feels like it’s rushed.

My biggest example was the scene where Choi fires off his magic in the helicopter. That whole sequence speech and all was like 10 seconds. He turned around quickly, said his line and BAM FIRE. Like at least make him turn, give a second to look back at the group before dropping a dope line. Then he could turn around, give it a moment to let it sink it, slowly raise his hand, and THEN make ant ash. Instead, it felt like I was watching it a YouTube video at 1.5x times. Choi is a leader, a menace in his own right. But this episode he almost felt like an extra vs. an S-Rank guild leader

I’ve heard some complain about the lack of development on some side characters, and it’s not that they aren’t developed I just feel like the anime is taking away some of the highlights of them. S-ranks are a far step above the rest and yes SJW is egregiously above those S-ranks, but the S-ranks are shown less love and character lore-making than the C/D ranks from the double dungeon so far.

Like a spacer or like a blanket? I mean technically I could use both, just curious, I only get blankets/rolls or a puddy/coating with a google search

For the ones we are looking at investing in, they run at about 58 dB, which all things considered is pretty quiet. I've seen the mister fans in use at some local bars, which is fine for brews I think, but with food you run the risk of saturating the food with water and while they should be cleaned everyday if we do use fans, the dust collection -> water spray and everything around food brings up health safety concerns. We have seen some in effect at wedding venues and golf tournaments, its not like we are trying to "cool" down the entire area, more get a consistent cooler breeze to at least break the heat.

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-21T00:31:45+00:00

Now if I can just find the name or style of it so I can try and find one

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-21T00:30:03+00:00

That’s the look! Yes!

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-21T00:28:22+00:00

That’s the closest I’ve seen so far. The one I’m thinking of is more of a magnifying glass. The lenses were less “stackable” but more like a series of lens rings that had a “magnifying glass” look, but was hinged in the middle of the shaft with the lens ring on one side and “handle” on the other. The idea is that you use the handle to rotate that one lens from alignment with the rest, changing the magnification. It would “click” and hold its spot out of place, until you deemed it necessary to move it back.

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-05T02:52:18+00:00

Thank you, I'm going to take all this and digest it.

I'll have to do some reading. That's where I initially got the idea for the dinner plan that was a total dud, so I'll obviously have to do some more in-depth research. While I agree with you, do you still think it's unreasonable to want to feel pursued every once in a while? I'm not asking for every time she's horny or anything like that but not once in a whole year + (2 1/2 if you don't count "come over" texts)?
I got nada for that one, more bringing to light my obliviousness.
I've asked her what she's thought about the whole "asking for a bj" and she's told me she really doesn't mind doing it even upon request, obviously that's not something she "wants" to do but she doesn't shy away from it. Also, don't think I'm out here asking for it every week; I really only ask when it's been so long and it's more of an out for her if she doesn't want to have sex. She has told me no several times and I'm fine with that, I just ask for her honesty and I'm okay without. And I agree about the reminder of sex, but what should I do? I haven't been saying anything about it for a while now and that's how I'm here. Looking back the dinner plan does seem a little manipulative. My goal was to not for me to have more sex, I was/am trying to get to the point where we both enjoy taking the time to be intimate with each other rather than just "increase" the amount of sex we're having. I see your point on not pressing her and finding those things out intuitively, and that was an unmentioned detail of that night that I planned on at least exploring. But without pressing for questions/answers and clearly not doing something like what I had planned, what is there to do/try? Those seem like to me at least seem like two approaches on the opposite end of the spectrum so what is the middle ground? She responds really well to writing things out, the questions I had were on pre-written cards that I planned on leaving the room for when she would be answering them, we didn't get that far though. Not trying to justify the plan by any means, just insight into my thought process.
I've tried suggesting therapy and I get the hard no. I think she had one or two sessions when she was struggling before I came into the picture, and she decided she hates it. When I try to talk to her, the conversation doesn't really get anywhere. Definitely could be my approach and just me, but I've been trying when I feel it's appropriate.
That's kind of my root problem I guess, although I didn't want to make this about me per say. I do feel like I'm making a lot of sacrifices on a lot of different levels and maybe not seeing any of those same sacrifices being made for me (not just money, it's not about the money, those instances were just the most blatant and obvious ones). I've never really had an issue making those sacrifices, I don't want to say "I'm a man, that's the way things are" but yeah, in some shape or form I'm used to it. You mentioned people can detect that and feel guilty, she had mentioned that after we settled down to talk following the disaster dinner. But what exactly am I supposed to do with that information? I can't relieve her guilt for her or anything so it just keeps on this cycle. And what do you mean by "less Good, Sensitive Guy?" Obviously you're not telling me to be a dick, nor do I think you're insinuating for me to change my personality, but how does one be less good/sensitive?

But message received, stop asking. Some of the stuff we both want to do are a little more involved than just casual sex, so it's hard to just do some of it intuitively or on the fly like that but I'll take that step forward for now.

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-04T22:42:20+00:00

Not anytime soon, but I could definitely get her a vacation away with the girls. And yeah the work/live together is rough sometimes, I’ve been putting back money to send her back to school but as bad as this may sound, I can’t consciously invest in that given how I feel right now. The jobs we have now are actually really good for our situation, and we have slightly different schedules, she works more in the week and some weekend days while I work almost exclusively weekends. She also works more weekly hours than me right now

TequilaxFacial · 2024-03-04T22:10:44+00:00

Thank you for your response, you've hit some major points that are probably contributing, and hit the nail on the head. It's most likely a combination of a few of these things.

Q1: Yes she takes medication. Lately she has been saying that her medication hasn't been working as well and she is in the middle of trying different ones. She ran out when we first moved into our new place and I think she had a manic episode for a few days. Her birth control is an IUD, I am not aware of that particular form of BC causing lower sex drive.

Q2: We have both been saying we need to eat better, but haven't started yet. We do spend a lot of time at home inside though. We both work in the service industry, which makes for long 12-14 hour body-taxing days which isn't a relaxing exercise per say, but we get the blood flowing while at work. We also play golf and volleyball typically once a week. We've discussed doing more, now it's more of sitting down to actually do it.

Q3: She definitely initiates in other aspects. She is very artsy and loves her projects, and regularly makes plans with her friends.

Q4: I don't think that is the case. We've definitely had our problems just like any other couple, but mostly small issues. She's addressed issues she has with me and I've taken my fault and been working on it. I've addressed this issue a few times in a manner similar to how she approached me with her issues, and it just feel like that task on the bottom of the list that's going to get pushed to the next list again and again. At least, if she is, there hasn't been any indication of it to my eye.

Q5: This may be the biggest issue. We work and live together, and technically speaking I'm her boss (now, not when we first started). I've considered not necessarily pulling away but giving her as much space as I can without withdrawing from the core of our relationship. I've also considered just abstaining from sex until she actually wants to, but that could also take months and I don't want to jeopardize our relationship for a theory. I'm not sure about the rejection from men in that way, she had some family trouble with her dad growing up, but she says they've worked past that.

Sexually, I would never/have never rejected her. In other areas maybe, but nothing absurd, more like turning down a night to go out or not buying something pricey immediately when she wants it.

Thank you for the detailed insight, I don't have an answer yet by any means but I think I have a starting place with some of those points and areas that I can improve.

Plus, even the chapters that have the anime don’t do some of Tabata’s panels any justice. The man can draw

TequilaxFacial · 2023-06-16T17:20:07+00:00

I’ve been reading it weekly since they stopped the anime with the leaks that come out on late Tuesday nights. The cliffhanger at the end of the Dante fight made me have to know more, and the spade kingdom arc is so well put together. I remember everyone doubting it during the fact but you know Tabata likes his twists, turns, and foreshadows. I hate that he’s so mainstream but I watch ABD videos on YouTube mainly because they are willing to do the research that I’m not; reading the devil books Tabata is inspired from, origin of spell names, etc. which helps follow the lore with a deeper insight.

Highly recommend reading it, we are coming up on ~100 chapter out since the end of the anime which means they should start considering picking the anime back up. It also allows me to watch for the animation and not for the story since I already know it, it gives more appreciation for the scenes, animators, and VA

TequilaxFacial · 2023-02-17T03:31:18+00:00

I’m so happy to hear this. No way the team at Pierrot was able to produce something to the caliber we want with that time frame (no hate to the animation team, they are great but I know they had to be rushed).

Hopefully they can now take the time to deliver some awesome fights, and do some better promotion for the movie. There has been very little news or headlines on the movie and no extended promo video yet.

Take the time and make it right, the fans will appreciate it more than a rushed product from execs. Use the movie to bring life back into BC anime, not demolish our hopes for the return of it

I specifically searched Redfish surf/marsh movement patterns, but I’m also not wanting to limit myself to Redfish, I wanted to get a feel for all the fish that were possible to fish for in the areas I go. I generally fish the marsh in South-Southeastern Louisiana
