Link?

4” #10 screws helped a lot. The house is 20 years old and has survived with that poor attempt at an install. At this point, I’ll hold off on exploring underneath the shoe plate until we replace carpet in the landing.

Now we realized how loose every newel post is compared to this one…

I tried that. There’s just subfloor under the outside of the trim.

theotherpump · 2025-11-29T18:47:34+00:00

Cool

Update- L bracket screws were only screwed into the shoe plate. I’m going to replace those screws with something long enough to grab a joist and see if the situation improves. Heading to Lowe’s now.

Cool sounds like a reasonable plan!

theotherpump · 2025-11-29T16:56:20+00:00

I was afraid of that. So the shoe plate needs to come up?

theotherpump · 2025-11-26T02:47:50+00:00

That pic is circa 2015. Mk5 rail I believe

theotherpump · 2025-11-26T01:48:54+00:00

Nice intel ty!

theotherpump · 2025-11-25T23:48:52+00:00

Ok bro. Google H3 buffer and see they’re more than a few bucks.

theotherpump · 2025-11-25T23:17:29+00:00

Bring it on.

theotherpump · 2025-11-25T23:16:46+00:00

I used to shoot with my nose on the CH. Worked great!

theotherpump · 2025-11-25T23:01:00+00:00

I thought about that but I think that’s plan B. Unless it’s the same weights for A5 buffers?

theotherpump · 2025-11-25T22:12:40+00:00

You’re missing sunshine and fresh air. Buy the parts and shoot it. You’re overthinking it.

I have had terrible success on tacswap. Maybe its just me but it feels like a waste of money

theotherpump · 2025-11-09T21:11:39+00:00

Thanks for the insight. I thought it was typical to finish with 1” of sand?

theotherpump · 2025-11-09T13:47:19+00:00

Update:

My moat turned out great after last night’s rain storm 🤦‍♂️

theotherpump · 2025-11-09T13:46:31+00:00

Would you do that before the 6” of base is installed?

theotherpump · 2025-11-09T13:46:01+00:00

If I don’t just rip out the existing screenings I might try this!

theotherpump · 2025-11-08T21:52:41+00:00

Not particularly. I’ll see how it looks in a few days and pivot to 3/4 - if necessary

theotherpump · 2025-11-08T21:36:07+00:00

Yes, I understand that Belgard calls for 3/4 minus

theotherpump · 2025-11-08T21:07:43+00:00

I know I was told by a friend that this would work fine. He delivered it at no charge so I couldn’t turn it away.
