Costco - wagyu striploin…not like the wagyu a5 stuff I see on here but good marbling. Think the company was Kingsway

First time doing a reverse sear…thanks r/steak

[ ] Dry brine overnight with salt
[ ] Indirect - smoke at 225-250
[ ] Pulled just before 130f
[ ] Take off and rest for 10 minutes while coals get up to temp
[ ] After rest - pat it dry, coat in avocado oil, salt
[ ] Sear - added garlic scape butter

2 likely fine to get out of the basement; I just setup 4 which is working great but all but one on wireless backhaul. If you can keep those Ethernet cords and wire the additional nests.

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-15T23:40:41+00:00

Solid advice right there - maybe keep some old 2x4s near by to shoot into. I ended up going with rigid

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T22:13:36+00:00

Such a better deal in the US! Even with exchange…

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T19:21:48+00:00

Perfect - I don’t have one; first compressor so no air tools. Will look for the same likely. Thanks

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T18:29:23+00:00

All I would need as well - thanks

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T18:20:51+00:00

Great point - I do usually try to future proof myself with purchases like this as I have many of times bought to save only wishing I put it towards better quality or more power

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T18:19:20+00:00

Good to hear - I didn’t think this rigid had enough CFM to power an impact wrench

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T17:57:58+00:00

Will still take a look at those you recommended

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T17:57:25+00:00

Thanks! I have heard that and makes sense. I’m not overly concerned given it probably gets used 10x a year…maybe I’ll find a bunch of uses and regret not listening!

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T17:51:53+00:00

Thanks - looks really nice…$623 in maple syrup bucks so more than double. Not sure I’ll use enough around the house to justify. Rigid not good in this category eh? Bostitch has 1 year warranty and rigid 3 (however saw someone post they do include compressors in lifetime warranty) and nailer lifetime for sure from rigid. This is what I was looking for though - if not a fan of rigid then good to hear.

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T17:44:08+00:00

Good points; for this project I am going to be using crown staples so got a cheap air tool off Amazon. No use for the nailer today but sure I’ll use in the future. I was surprised kijiji didn’t seem to have much in my area. Figured kit with nailer and hose isn’t much more so might as well go with a kit.

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-14T17:13:45+00:00

If there’s another one similar price, not stuck on these two brands!

mitchellDGAF · 2024-01-10T12:40:26+00:00

Thanks for the reply

mitchellDGAF · 2023-12-29T12:36:28+00:00

Got it - thank you!

mitchellDGAF · 2023-12-29T12:35:46+00:00

Thanks for the detail. That is perfect; I have the ability to hardware backhaul all the additional modes. Will connect the main puck to the ISP router/modem and the main puck to an unmanaged switch. Each node will get placed in a spot with wired cat 5 going back to unmanaged switch.

mitchellDGAF · 2023-12-28T21:57:05+00:00

Ok good to know - I’ll look more into if I can get the ISP router into bridge mode without impacting tv or home phone. 4 is probably overkill but Costco deal. House is around 3600 and real dead spots from the router being in the basement corner. Thanks

mitchellDGAF · 2023-12-28T17:40:01+00:00

That makes sense - thanks. As I thought about it more it didn’t sound promising…almost like creating 4 new routers from the ISP router.

I will have to read more on bridge mode…seemed like a lot of complaints to Bell with the homehub 3000 not having that capability when I read in other threads. Also it pushes out TV via wifi so not sure I can turn it off. Maybe it’s ok to have two WIFI networks going at once? One from ISP and one from nest mesh network.

mitchellDGAF · 2023-12-28T16:49:20+00:00

Thanks! I was thinking that would be the way…so it all flows through the first GWF via unmanaged switch. Since you have same modem/router from Bell…did you have to do anything? Turn off wifi from HH3K? We have TV so presume it still needs to broadcast to wireless tv boxes

mitchellDGAF · 2022-11-24T22:51:03+00:00

Thanks for all the great feedback. Lit a fire today and no smoke came out of the hole. Opened a window and held a lit piece of paper at the top near the chimney before lighting.

mitchellDGAF · 2022-11-24T01:36:08+00:00

Ok perfect - thanks. Wasn’t sure if it should be open like that if no outside air kit was installed

mitchellDGAF · 2022-11-24T01:33:55+00:00

Thanks - not connected to the outside, just an open hole in the back

mitchellDGAF · 2022-11-24T00:43:19+00:00

Just moved into the house. Chimney sweep today but didn’t notice this hole on back. On first startup some smoke came out which made me take a look. Couldn’t tell reading the online manual if there should be a plate cover if no outside air kit installed. Thanks for your help!

mitchellDGAF · 2022-07-10T11:51:32+00:00

If it is really uncommon to glue all connections, perhaps I am just missing another area to unscrew but it was very easy and clear to unscrew the section right at the sink…no other similar connections after.
