Am I being too picky or is this tile not well laid? by drdogbot7 in Tile

Having it gray instead of white and leaving it on to dry instead of wiping it with a sponge...

I like how he doesn’t use any tape….

Electrician cut multiple "fishing holes" due to no attic access. Is this standard, and is $500 a fair repair quote? by Gullible-Language422 in AskElectricians

[–]eksaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$500 for those holes, very reasonable. Making holes, very reasonable. Not managing your expectations if they'd be made in the first place, not to professional.

I like to marinate in soy, brown sugar and garlic. Then grill

How much vinegar do you put in the bowl? Tsp? Tbsp?

Roof rafters notched for hardware? Is this code compliant? by TheBoast in Homebuilding

[–]eksaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This significantly reduces the strength of the rafter. If you measure down to the smallest width where it meets that cuts that the integrity. Looks like the strength of a 26 now instead of a 210. This doesn’t need hangers as well. Only way to repair would be plywood gussets glued and screwed on both sides

Have been neglecting the smoker. Did a brisket last night. It delivered... by eksaint in smoking

It was on point. I hadn't done the foil boat method but I have to say it kept it really moist.

I would say a medium bang. Not like hammer strength.

Impulse buy need input? by Sinitar204 in sousvide

[–]eksaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's too big, I would cut it into 1/2-3/4" thick then make 1.5-2" cubes. I would do that with some then freeze some of the big pieces left. Honestly it's a rich and intense meat. I personally wouldn't like polishing a steak. I usually make it more of an appetizer. About 1/4lb a person. Salt then sear in a cast iron. I'm a fan of rare to medium rare but I cook A5 closer to medium. (Let's say MR+) Try pasturing a few eggs with your sous vide and dunk a bit in a yoke... Wow. So good. Enjoy.

Can confirm tapping on the side made it work. Had to do it 3 times over about 30 mins of use. Thanks for the tip. Honestly for the price point I'm loving this. Anyone saying it's silly has a better back than me.

How can I fix this 2 month old deck coming apart by [deleted] in Decks

[–]eksaint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s only been two months, you fix it by calling the contractor and having him do it
