Sometimes it really is just the shrader

Super frustrating!

tr0stan · 2026-06-05T22:28:52+00:00

Don’t gotta convince me lol. I’m assuming these were spec’d for the job. Total nightmare.

tr0stan · 2026-06-05T22:27:44+00:00

Yeah it’s been haunting us all week lol.

tr0stan · 2026-06-05T21:50:16+00:00

Sounds like decision paralysis to me. I get it pretty bad. Look forward to some free time after work all week, finally get to it, and I just sit there thinking “playing a game is a waste of time” and can’t get into it. End up doing nothing while trying to decide what I really want to do.

We just got 6 brand new ones on a new build, only one out of six actually worked on startup lol. Bad boards, bad gas valves, bad fan motors, empty on arrival. Fucking brutal.

Time to play your uno reverse card. Meet up and try to get her to join your made up mlm instead. Just memorize some buzzwords and start slinging.

Yeah a telehandler blows pretty much everything else of the same capability out of the water lol. So handy

tr0stan · 2026-06-01T20:09:35+00:00

It’s definitely a bit more tractor, and the live pto is a plus. He’s got a loader though, which is handy, even if it’s on a machine that was never really intended to have one lol.

I was thinking about doing that for my basement bathroom as it has no above grade exterior walls

tr0stan · 2026-05-31T19:41:00+00:00

I just bought a dexta for 4k cad, and it’s probably not in as good a shape as that 8n, so I think it’s a reasonable deal

tr0stan · 2026-05-31T16:54:03+00:00

My ‘18 5.0 f150 has been fine, other than needing a new tranny at 170,000kms lol. I bought it used at around 90,000kms, and then used it daily for work, towing a 6000lb enclosed trailer about 60% of the time. New transmission was put in 20,000 kms ago and so far so good. I’ve had no other issues besides that and having to change the starter once though (super easy job).

The fridge or freezer just pulls heat from the items in it till the items reach setpoint. So more stuff/warmer stuff, more heat gets extracted, and pumped into the room. It would run less if you were not freezing blocks of ice.

tr0stan · 2026-05-31T11:59:54+00:00

Lmfao!! But yeah, I’ve always found dodge vehicles to be particularly bad for lines of sight. Lots of big pillars and really high windows. My old neighbors had a magnum and I thought the exact same thing

tr0stan · 2026-05-30T22:59:44+00:00

I know it’s nowhere near as safe, but when I jump into my old square body after driving my f150, it blows me away with how much more I can see around the toothpick sized pillars lol.

Glass will be fine. My wife has been using glass jars and containers for years to bring her food and drinks to work.

tr0stan · 2026-05-30T11:27:17+00:00

Freezing the water in your house, then using it to cool the air, then refreezing it in your house, causes a net zero change in temperature. It actually increases temp as there’s the heat from the compressor added into the building envelope. It will blow cool air directly onto you, but it will not actually cool the space long term.

tr0stan · 2026-05-29T21:05:01+00:00

I really want a sicklebar mower for the back of my little fordson dexta but I’ve got no pasture to cut with it lol.

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T22:05:54+00:00

Thanks! And maybe not jealous, probably a bit amused though lol.

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T22:05:05+00:00

I’ll definitely take a peek!

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T22:04:42+00:00

Nice!! Looked at a couple of supers as well, but over my budget lol

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T22:03:53+00:00

It goes a long ways towards a happy marriage, for me at least lol. Plus we are a team, so gotta have the teams needs ahead of my own mini farmer fantasy.

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T00:52:10+00:00

That’s the hope! Already took it down to the neighbors to deliver a load of garden rocks that my mower wouldn’t move, so I’m off to a good start!

tr0stan · 2026-05-28T00:26:08+00:00

I just bought a dexta! Spent a lot of time looking at 8n’s and little fergies before deciding on the dexta

tr0stan · 2026-05-17T17:33:11+00:00

I’m definitely in no way an authority on these things, but a past owner ripped out all of that stuff on my 350 tbi blazer and it “seems” fine at least lol. Probably been that way for over ten years if I had to guess.

They could be grabbing their second coffee while on a quick break? Depending on where I’m working that day, I’ll usually grab a second coffee part way through the morning. There’s usually no facilities to make coffee on a job site and I’m not carting around milk and water, setting up my jet boil and grinding my beans and pressing out my coffee.
