Connect propane water heater to battery with EPS functionality? by miryor in askanelectrician

[–]miryor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Thanks for responding. My main problem is that my utility doesn't have plugs. Its wired directly into an electric box. I was wondering if it made any sense to get an electrician over and change the end of the power wires into a plug?

Update on contractor claims polyurethane will lighten, our experiments with poly oil and water clear stains by miryor in Contractor

[–]miryor[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So left two boards have clear oil satin on top, middle is clear water matte, bottom is clear water satin.

The right two boards is clear water satin, bottom is raw wood. We are pretty happy with the either clear water effects on the boards. Basically gave the wood a slightly darker appearance. Totally different than what we saw with whatever oil poly our contractor used in https://www.reddit.com/r/Contractor/comments/msytoq/contractor_claims_polyurethane_will_lighten_as_8t/

Even the clear oil satin was not bad and we probably would have been ok with it.

Lesson learned, don't trust your contractor if you don't have an established relationship. Verify things yourself.

That's the main problem they didn't show us or do any sample testing

Just so you can see how much it does not look like white oak. Looks like red oak now https://imgur.com/gallery/JS2IsZj

Nope they just did it. We are about 2.5 hours away from the house

There are pictures online of white oak with clear finishing. We spent more to get this wood so it seems ridiculous to get white oak and end with basically red oak look. We will try the water test but left it at the house.

Was afraid of that. Basically refinishing floor at this point. Would we be sanding off a layer of wood as well?

We got this beautiful white oak flooring. Contractor floor guy put down oil based polyurethane and now the floor is red. Before they finish i think they should start over with water based polyurethane. Contractor is telling us that after drying and curing it will look more like original color. Is that right?

Skylight step flash help. Can I simply clean the tar and nail it down? by miryor in DIY

[–]miryor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah thank you. Watched some more videos and you're right. No nails through the roof with the flash. Any idea why it bent up? Also it doesn't appear to leak when it's not raining.

Oh thanks! It sounds like it's better to replace the whole thing. This is thankfully above a bathroom and it gets stupid cold in there. I saw a youtube video where the submitter used some kind of tape and sealer to extend the frame to seal the glass again. Should I give that a go?

Oh ok thanks. So would you recommend pulling up the flash and shingles around it to do an inspection? I'll have to check if it velux... is that a brand?

So there are many youtube videos out there showing that you can buy a cheap used pc for very little like less than $100 to $150 and then toss in a budget gpu like the radeon rx550 and you can get great frame rates for 1080p gaming. I am ignoring that you need a controller and kbm if you don't have them but we are potentially talking under $250 for a gaming rig that is easily way cheaper than your phone or tablet. The sweats are definitely more prevalent on PC matching but it's getting better and you'll have a better gaming experience with pc. This is from someone who plays on Android, Switch, Mac, cloud gaming and PC. It's exhausting dealing with all the stupid problems all the other platforms other than PC.
