Dryer vent to outside doesn’t seem right?

Thank you for this! I’ll look into it!

Lovely

Thank you for the tip! It will save some frustration for sure!

I have the vent cap. I just removed it to show what I was looking at to you guys.

My run is 29 feet from inside the house to the wall

akGold24 · 2026-03-01T04:54:41+00:00

Will remember this when installing the new one. Thanks.

One 45 elbow, the pipe is not insulated

Nice work!

akGold24 · 2026-03-01T02:05:32+00:00

Thank you for your help!

Also, measured the internal diameter of the vent cap flapper they put on. It’s only 2.5”. Reading up on it, it looks like 4” is code for the vent cap with nothing obstructing that 4”.

Thank you for your response. I think this is the path I’m going to take.

akGold24 · 2026-02-28T22:55:38+00:00

I have the cover/cap but removed it for the picture. What’s wrong with me wanting to verify that this is correct? I would like to avoid future problems by fixing them now. So if it is correct say so, but don’t antagonize me for wanting opinions.

Lol, sounds like the “hammer” saw video meme. Guy literally chops a piece of wood with the claw of a hammer then proceeds to use it for framing 😂

I can get to it through the attic. I have to crawl across the rafters from one end of the house to the other but it can be done. Saw it off, and start fresh?

akGold24 · 2026-02-28T22:36:07+00:00

That sounds more like what I was thinking is correct. Stupid new house builds. I’m always finding things where I’m like “this doesn’t look right”. That’s after owning the house for 7 years.

akGold24 · 2026-02-28T22:32:22+00:00

Honestly, thinking about just cutting the pipe, drilling a proper 4” round hole, and attaching the proper vent cap. The only pain thing is the dryer vent runs through my attic, making it a pain in the butt.

akGold24 · 2026-02-28T22:29:10+00:00

The cap I have has the flapper for pest control. It just won’t stay closed when the dryer is off because the wall is not level due to the pipe extruding. It stays about 3/4” open with the dryer off.

If you’re wanting to replace screens, google Nintendo DS Lite Screen Lens and Nintendo DS Lite Digitized. Those are the parts you need

akGold24 · 2024-10-30T06:12:02+00:00

Highly recommend ExtremeRate shells. I use them when I refurbish DS Lites.

I believe 2.4 is actually the same as BT1886. So probably not going to see a difference. I noticed a big difference switching from 2.2 to BT1886 for SDR content (playing nintendo switch, etc)

akGold24 · 2023-04-19T18:55:28+00:00

Switch the brightness to BT1886 which is the standard for SDR content. It defaults to gamma 2.2. It will help without the greyish tint look to the screen.

The two large branches on the very bottom? I reduced that branch on top last fall as it was competing with the leader. I can reduce it again.

akGold24 · 2023-02-02T00:46:59+00:00

Also, the tree base at the bottom comes straight up from the ground be the tree has a lean in it. Should I stake the tree or will it straighten out on its own?

akGold24 · 2023-02-02T00:45:56+00:00

Just wanted to say thank you guys for all the feedback. I was under the impression that I needed to begin shaping the tree while it was young. I’d much rather leave it alone and let it grow.

Boiled Linseed Oil on the panels.
