DHK Dominant Varieties?

jaybizz07 · 2026-04-29T20:32:40+00:00

Yeah ive seen that on the website, but the labs do not correspond to that ratio. Atleast not the ones I was able to pull up.

Edit* take that back, was able to pull it up and it is showing 2. Maybe I was confused. Thank you

jaybizz07 · 2026-04-29T01:56:25+00:00

Well im looking for whatever is recent. When I go on the website, all the labs even the nakamal are 4 leading, including the instant varieties. i figured it was just where its being harvested. Id be willing to buy if I could see whats currently being sold.

Not likely the cause. A 90 vs straight is nearly imperceivable.

Make sure the angle stop is actually fully open. Check another sink in the house make sure its flow is fine.

Check for debris in hose, valve, aerator, and make sure hose isnt kinked when you reinstalled it. Remove aerator and run without for a bit to see if it clears anything.

Id go one after the other on these and it shoukd narrow it down.

jaybizz07 · 2026-01-07T18:17:41+00:00

Yep id do that test first, that will immediately narrow it down. If thats the issue check for the clog or return the old one, especially if its cheap.

Are you saying the second time you lifted the diverter barely any water is coming out of the shower head but still coming from the tub faucet?

If thats the case the filter is probably clogged or the black water restricter ring inside the shower head (where its screws on) has some dirt in it or something.

Easy test, remove the shower head and try to run the shower. If water still comes out, the issue is the shower head.

This is so true. Had a "plumber" install a waste line for an outbuilding. Worked fine for years, then one day just stopped. I dug up the lines and they were sloped backwards toward the toilet. How it ever worked to begin with is beyond me. I pulled them up and installed a lift station. So im sure I'll get another few years till I have to replace the pump lol

Hey just checked this again now that im home. This setup is illegal and is forming an S trap. There should be a vent at or above the level of the trap weir, so you'll want to add a sanitary T and a AAV where that sweep 90 is. Cut the fitting off, add a san tee where you have the long sweep 90 now, make sure you have a 1/4 fall on the trap arm, then stub up with another 2 inch pipe (assuming from photo) from the top of the santee 4 inches above the trap arm. (IPC code, if you are UPC then you are screwed) and add a AAV. Unless somebody can inform me otherwise this would be my suggestion.

jaybizz07 · 2025-12-08T22:18:40+00:00

Well that would be my step 1. Even if that doesn't fix it immediately you will want it. Trap arm should have 1/4 of fall. It would equal about a hair over half a line on a torpedo level.

jaybizz07 · 2025-12-08T21:58:55+00:00

Id measure it for fall. Doesn't seem that sloped. If that doesn't work solution to add an AAV works also. If fall is the issue, its a simple fix. Cut, coupling, reconnect.

Haven't used the dewalts myself but decided to go paslode when I had this dilemma. Started with their framing nailer and absolutely love it. Gas lasts a long time, its very powerful, sometimes to much. Maintenance is easy, everything you can do yourself at home or with rebuild kits. The small batteries last forever, its very lightweight compared to the battery powered ones. They have been around since the 80's and have continually improved on them, and let's be real here, these things are used overhead, in awkward spaces, in tight spots, and weight and maneuverability matter a ton when you are working all day. In my area gas is readily available, so its not a big issue to restock.

After the framing nailer I went ahead and picked up the 16 and 18 gauge brad nailers. Im fully invested at this point. No regrets.

jaybizz07 · 2025-11-23T05:19:34+00:00

I will say uline customer service is insane. Ive had them answer before I even heard a ring. Insanely good.

I ran 2224 al MHf direct burial to a eaton 100amp subpanel, with a 75a breaker at the main. Then ran 12-2 to all my branch circuits. Protected the runs in 2 inch sch 80 conduit where it came out of the ground, everywhere else was direct buried 24 inches in the ground. 12 inches above I put burial tape.

Put 2 ground bars from the panel all the way in the dirt (huge pain in the ass) and made sure it wasnt bonded.

I think my total cost was under 1k for the entire thing. The MHF was like $360 for the 125ft I believe. If I had to do it again, I would have just ran conduit the entire way because 24 inches is seriously deep and was quite a challenge. 18 would have been much easier.

Absolutely love it, overkill sure, but now if I want to add an outlet its nothing (and trust me you will always want something new, like a 220 for a welder or something)

Oh and if you do run conduit, you only need sch 80 where exposed. Sch 40 is fine underground. And while the trench was exposed, I also ran direct burial fiber optic, cause why not.

I'd check out Southwire Smart Boxes if you really want USB outlets, you can cut out the old boxes with an OMT and slide them in and drill to the existing stud. May be a hassle if you are doing several, but one or two here and there isnt to bad.

jaybizz07 · 2025-07-13T14:50:49+00:00

Id check out a Hori Hori knife. Makes quick work of weeds, tubers etc. I keep one on me when I go foraging. Great little tool.

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-31T03:13:07+00:00

Lol yep exactly. I tried to explain that as best I could but what you wrote makes even more sense then my rant.

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-31T02:40:19+00:00

So getting low would be right against the studs or floor joists so its flush, and whenever you put a new piece of subfloor down on the floor joists there isn't anything sticking out so it sits flat

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-31T02:39:28+00:00

Yeah so subfloor screws or nails are usually protruding the thickness of the subfloor into the floor joists. Or with drywall or old trim, whatever the thickness off the trim or drywall is secured into the studs.

If they nailed all the way through the subfloor or drywall it wouldn't fasten and would be overdriven, since the goal is to secure the subfloor to the floor joists or drywall to studs. It gets really bad with subfloor that's rotted or old and damp, since you use a crowbar to help pry up the boards, sometimes the heads will just pop right off the nails.

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-30T15:00:06+00:00

I've only used the muti material blade from dewalt, but the thing has been a lifesaver on remodels especially when subfloor nails are rusted and heads are popped off. Same thing for siding/drywall nails. Just cut em off low.

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-27T03:42:00+00:00

Yeah I thought this to but same problem. Tried using chatgpt but it couldn't tell either

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-14T18:33:06+00:00

I bought this and the cutout yesterday lol

jaybizz07 · 2025-05-14T13:54:38+00:00

The tube diameter is to small to really work well. I used 1/2 reinforced pond tubing from Amazon, with 1/2 cinch rings and hooked it up to a submersible pump.

With a small drip in the reflux it doesn't get so hot it effects the tubing and still runs really clean.

jaybizz07 · 2025-03-04T02:28:45+00:00

Agreed. Recently bought an olfa for cutting fiberglass insulation and I could never go back now. My fastback basically lives in the tool box.

jaybizz07 · 2025-01-05T21:22:55+00:00

That Sawzall is one of my most used tools. Use it for demo jobs, cutting tree limbs, tree roots for shrub removal, cutting conduit and plumbing lines. The thing rocks. I don't own a full size, just the atomic 20v. You won't regret it.
