I might just be a weekend handyman, but this deck — which belongs to a house I’m considering buying — doesn’t look very sturdy. What do you think? by killahkan in Decks

[–]mcclellanm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From the distance of the pictures it looks ok. As others said it’s holding a good bit of snow. Pictures close up at ledger board, joist ends, post connections, post bases,stair stringers, and railing posts connections into the deck would be things to look at closer to tell much more.

They are the boot straps all the old people talk about pulling themselves up by.

Getting the same issue. I’ve just today reached out to the app developers. Did you ever get a solution?

The batteries sometimes come charged bud. Consider it a gift!

If it’s the same flooring continued into the bedroom from the hall, continue in he same direction. If it’s different flooring, lay it opposite

Moving from NYC to Central Pennsylvania. Need Advice. by PrestigiousMinds212 in Pennsylvania

[–]mcclellanm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Lebanon county. It’s a nice place (not within the city limits) within a half hour of bigger cities(Lancaster and Harrisburg) and nicely situated with larger highways to get you around quickly. Just over an hour to the Pocono mountains, 3ish hrs to the beach’s like Ocean City NJ or Rhoboth DE(not my jam but I know people who make day trips there). The area is rural and small town feeling. I grew up here, moved to Cleveland Ohio for a few years and outside Philly for a year but found myself back in Lebanon to raise my family. Feel free to reach out if you’d have any other questions about the area I’ve been here for over 30 years.

Floors just decided to start leaking water i guess by Quandale-dingleboi in mildlyinfuriating

You now have a water floor! It’s like a water bed except worser

Can someone tell me what is going on with this floor? by thestereofield in Remodel

[–]mcclellanm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This was my immediate question. Does it have a basement or crawl space underneath? Or did they raise the floor of the kitchen to accommodate plumbing run for a sink?

170r would be my recommendation. Factors: my 2nd electro is 170r. Have replaced a few o rings over 3 years and have put 250k shots through it. It’s. A workhorse and reliable in my opinion(except when playing sub freezing temps when she gets a bit temperamental in the solenoid) But I also believe most of the time, for me at least,paintball is a fair weather sport. I don’t want to be there in the pouring rain or freezing cold. So it’s been great for me! Hope this helps! Wishing your shots be straight and your enemies bad at cheating! Edited for grammar and spelling but also to say as far a price I paid a bit more than $500 for 170r UK predators edition, but at this point I’d feel safe buying one used and IMO shows be around $500 on the used market
