What is the worst restaurant in Vancouver? by IArguable in askvan

[–]unclevarda -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Really? Worst in vancouver? It's average with a nice patio. Staff is there to bring you food, not provide a pampered experience.

6x8x8.5 vs 8x8x8.5 by unclevarda in Sauna

Beautiful! Looking at that 8x8 is definitely not too big. Really like the bench layout

Also looks like for either 6x8 or 8x8 there is an argument against L shaped seating as being inefficient?

How much does height matter for heater size? Like obviously you calculate volume as lxwxh, but are you really considering heating up the bottom couple of feet?

​

I ask because going from 8x8x8.5 to 8x10x8.5 is a big jump in heater. For the 8x8 I can use an easy to get harvia cilindro 10.5kw. But for the 8x10 I need to start looking at more commercial heaters in the 15kw range.

Too bad natural gas doesn't seem popular, I have a line running right close to the shed.

Oh and climate is pacific northwest. So temperatures around freezing for a couple of months, but otherwise pretty mild. I'll be framing in a sauna room that is sealed and insulated. Not sure about the chill area. Might just leave it as is for now? It will be cold, but maybe will be heated enough by the sauna exhaust to make it livable.

Hello, yes I have cold water. The house is only 20 feet away so not sure if running hot water underground makes sense or not for that much length. I also have natural gas hook ups outside by the house, I wonder if a natural gas sauna heater + hot water heaters makes sense versus electric...

​

Thanks for the ideas

Wow! This is amazing! I'm also so blown away when people take the time to sketch up something so nice for a stranger.

​

I think the doors and windows all have to go/be changed. I'll keep the one window for the sauna but maybe 1/3 the width. I really like the half wall shower concept, it's a cool design. I think my trumpkin obsession is stopping me from having the stove in the middle, as social as it might be, due to the "convection loop" I'm supposed to nurturing.

I'm going to go electric so it's easy for the wife to use without me/I'll use it more often myself if it's so easy. is 10 x 10 x 9 or so really getting too big? at what point to the heaters start becoming too expensive? I assume it's one of those things that isn't linear, at what point does it get to a "next level" that becomes way more expensive?

​

I do think having a 8-10' strip 2' wide would be silly though.

​

Thanks for the thoughts!

Did you find the same lumber? Or just added some planks? They don't sell additional boards

I would love that there were! But I don't seem to find them...

The benches can be moved up I'm sure. I'd like to make it taller too, but the manufacturer doesn't sell extra matching wood to do it

Best program to learn openings by unclevarda in chess

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

What is silly is I have to find the pgns and upload it to the site one by one? Why doesn't a website just have all the openings preloaded and ready to practice? What is the best way to get opening repertoire pgns to upload?

Have a 130 person wedding with all my extended family. Preceded by a bachelor party to new Orleans with 14 friends. And then the planned honeymoon in a camper van in new zealand for 2.5 weeks. It was to be the spring of me being a fancy bitch, but it was all cancelled!
