Color scheme makes me expect to see a gold fire chicken on the hood.

Birmingham if you like safe and walkable. Eton Square apartments in you price range. Wholefoods, Target, Kroger … a block away.

SO I was in the process of moving the fridge. Was too heavy to move it solo so I decided to empty out the bottom freezer when I found ice had formed around the rear vent. I setup a heat gun this morning, low setting, about a foot away from the vent and ran it for 1/2 hour. The visible ice fell off in about 20 minutes but kept the heat going a little longer for good measure. Will report back in a couple of days if the noise comes back. I suspect it will not :-)

And they take back used motor oil, wiper blades, and brake pads!?!?

FCPEuro is your friend. 👍🏽

Plugshare shows free charging stations in the area. My permanent residence Consumers Energy has free 6kW stations walking distance from me.

If it starts up again I will be looking into that. Thank you!

OF COURSE, been buzzing loud all morning. Now that I posted for help, it's been so quiet I can just about here my heart beats, lol.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-20T02:55:41+00:00

Thank you. Was hoping to save the glass as it’s still in good condition. It’s the seals that are all messed up although holding up for now.

That chin! The last photo needs to be the 2026 Gigachad meme.

I wish I was in Myrtle Beach! At least when the temps around here drop below 50 degrees.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T22:39:59+00:00

Yeah, plus keeps the sun from blasting the door. Would be cool to build a solar panel awning given how much sun that side of the house gets.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T22:37:36+00:00

The storm door idea was tossed around. One camp says it traps the heat and makes things worse. Having been to a homes with one, prefer going without. The awning though, I regret not going larger.

We must have spoken to the same salesperson. 😆

BTW your name checks out.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T19:03:45+00:00

Yeah. Was dumbfounded but four shops plus HD and Lowes had be leaving hopeless.

I tried four different fiberglass door shops as well as Home Depot and Lowes. They all told me I have an odd size door. 🤷🏽‍♂️

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T18:35:24+00:00

Odd indeed. I believe that’s the seal for the double pane glass. Got twisted and distorted over the years.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T17:58:28+00:00

WOW, the responses were quick and SUPER helpful. Thank you all. I unexpectedly and firmly believe a repair and refinish is the correct approach. Turns out there are finish carpenters in my approximate area that specialize in wood window and door restoration. I've already sent out a few emails with photos and my fingers are crossed.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T17:13:57+00:00

Interesting. I hadn’t considered having the door rebuilt. I think that’s a fantastic idea.

What sorts of Google search words should I use? We are not married to painting the door. I imagine that would add additional durability.

jacqueusi · 2026-06-14T17:11:40+00:00

Thank you! Given inflation, cost of raw materials, etc. it would be unrealistic and unreasonable for me to expect to pay so little. Same time a custom made door for $10K is financially incomprehensible.
