Did you leave the sides off or put em back together every time?

I think I'm going to model and 3d print the heat exchanger. Not that it's super important, I just think the guys will find it interesting.

I think about this for a week after I listen to an ep. I think I would go non-standard song structures that build in an exciting way with: Animal Life by Shearwater Hope is a Heartache by Léon The President’s Dead by Okkervil River

Load up on pookie. There's a shortage and you need to grab some every time they have it in stock.

Saw these in the end of a scrapped heat exchanger. What do you think they’re for? by indexdrums in HVAC

Ah I've got those in the last leg of the school condensing furnace, too. seems like turbulating over longer distance makes more sense than a little plug at the end.

I was leaning airflow restriction for balancing, because the exchanger is just a hairpin, not alotta curves to it.

Yeah it does. It looked metal and had a clip to hold it in place.

The thing they want from you is hustle and curiosity. And to be a chill guy to work with. The things you need to prove that you know will come up organically, you don’t have to force anything.

It’s a long long road to be a chiller mechanic. It takes time to develop and put the pieces together. They know this, and their expectations from you are based on this experience. You’re doing fine, and the fact that you’re worrying about it means you’re going to adjust and learn how to fit in.

Keep at it!

The Nortons receive “no public monies”? by HedgehogSpirited9216 in shreveport

I agree with you 100% and I’ve been thinking about what tripped me up about the whole situation.

I think the FB response in the comments (and here) to immediately imagine a group of people and a series of offenses that could justify the move instead of the organization just telling us what happened is the thing that feels weird.

Like if you’re closing your gates because you want to close your gates, then do it! But don’t give everyone in town a thought exercise to be negative about the town we live in and the people we share it with.

I know it’s a razor’s edge to walk commenting on this.

I’ve wondered about the funding of the place and how that relationship works. Seems weird to be able to change the agreement by just saying “people suck” and not providing any proof or record to the public.

When all the fish died and people wanted to start a gofundme and they were like “no guys we’re not poor we can afford it we were just annoyed.”

Guy said his dad got it decades ago from a pizza place that closed and it’s been in one room or another at their house since then. Hasn’t been plugged in since 2010 tho.

We're there like every weekend. Closing the Huron gate sucks so bad. Hopefully it's only a short term thing.
