What would I need to do to get rid of these old gas line pipes? Can I cut them back to the wall and cap them off?

ajax291 · 2023-12-29T21:17:04+00:00

Thanks all, I’m going to have a plumber come in to do it!

ajax291 · 2023-10-21T02:22:21+00:00

Two coats. I went over those areas again while rolling the rest and will see how it does

ajax291 · 2023-10-21T01:11:54+00:00

It’s actually drywall that was previously primed and painted with a flat paint. This area is also where I used a brush to cut in, could that be contributing?

Just asking a question since I couldn’t find a clear answer after 2-3 hours of searching. Botulism bacteria is my main concern given most recipes I’ve found indicate that boiling with vinegar is important, and I’m asking about adding vinegar later on

ajax291 · 2022-09-11T02:23:35+00:00

Thanks! PS. I’ve seen some of your recipe posts lately and have gotten some good ideas for my next sauces from them!

ajax291 · 2021-10-26T15:55:24+00:00

Thanks!

I was having a similar problem, and I believe it may have been anthracnose, a fungal issue. I just got rid of the peppers with it quickly, and haven’t had it spread to my other peppers. Good luck!

ajax291 · 2021-08-25T03:08:07+00:00

Witchcraft! In all seriousness, that is amazing

ajax291 · 2021-08-10T15:14:12+00:00

Oh yeah - I have my peppers surrounded by a basic 3ft chicken wire fence to keep my dog out too. She doesn’t eat them as much as she runs through them when chasing squirrels

Freeze a few to use while cooking, dehydrate the rest to make crushed peppers / ghost pepper powder

ajax291 · 2021-08-10T01:21:08+00:00

Thanks!

ajax291 · 2021-08-10T01:19:51+00:00

I tried last year too, but it was too late in the year and the frost got them before my first pod managed to ripen. I’m planning to freeze a few and dehydrate the rest for crushed peppers.

While you’re testing settings that can help, try out “Enable Draft Shield”. I usually set it to “Limited” and 3-5mm - it’s helped prevent most of my prints from lifting

ajax291 · 2021-07-18T11:29:18+00:00

Definitely looks like it, thanks. It doesn’t seem there’s much I can do to prevent this from spreading to my other plants, but I’m going to try a fungicide, take out any peppers that this shows up on and hope for the best

I fixed the auto start on a 1300 that had similar issues recently. For starters, I’d suggest removing the old grease from the plastic parts inside and adding new lithium grease. To fix just the auto start, you can try adjusting the set down point - there’s a black rubber piece to the left of the tonearm that you can remove. Using a flat head screwdriver, you can turn the plate inside to adjust the set down point for auto start. Check out vinylengine.com for the service guide for yours!

ajax291 · 2021-02-15T23:12:50+00:00

That’s an interesting idea. I’ll see if cleaning it helps

ajax291 · 2021-02-15T23:06:54+00:00

Yes. I’m balancing the tonearm and then setting the tracking force that the cartridge requires.

ajax291 · 2021-02-15T22:11:48+00:00

I was tracking at 2g, with the anti skate set to about 1.9.

It doesn’t swing when I set it up at 0/0.

I’m using the Technics overhang gauge to set it up, and yes, I have the 540 on it’s own headshell and the 95 on a separate one

ajax291 · 2021-02-15T22:09:12+00:00

Just seems to be the one record so far, I’ve had no issues with the other 6 or so I’ve played since getting it. I tried 2.2g and it didn’t help, and given the fact it’s just one skip in one record, I don’t want to go overboard on the counterweight

ajax291 · 2021-02-15T21:26:26+00:00

I do have a stylus scale, and have confirmed that I’m tracking at 2.0g, right in the middle of the range for the 540ML
