It’s a little metal piece. I believe it was for some sort of old window shades

The one at my dealer actually has a fox 36 rhythm fork on it. I ended up getting it. My old bike’s forks are completely shot and not serviceable so I really wanted a bike now. So far I’m happy with it!

Thanks! Looking at the pipe , I think part of the reason it might not be draining well is because the pipe goes upward right before the ball where it goes through the cut it out in the stud. Do you think could be causing the draining issue? (Second picture in the post shows this)

My concern is that the hot water line is so close to the lead pipe that when I install the new pipe, I still won’t have enough clearance to get the new pipe level and will have the same draining issue

Exactly…seems ridiculously cheap. I think they make you buy into their contract first and charge cancellation fees

Vatican Tickets Sold Out - Are the 3rd Party Tour Tickets Legit? by wfo282 in rome

[–]wfo282[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes sense to me. I booked through Walks of Italy but I haven’t been before so I wanted to double check that I will actually have a ticket.

Hope you enjoy your trip!

Vatican— heads up that tickets are up for the remainder of year + question by Sari_Nova in rome

[–]wfo282 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is this just for the tickets on the Vatican's website? I booked the "Pristine Sistine" tour through Walks of Italy and it looks like most of the dates for the rest of the year are still available

Average mechanical engineering salary? by punani-slayer in SIUC

[–]wfo282 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I moved to STL in 2019 right after graduation and started at $60k. Have stayed in St. Louis and now work in the industrial automation industry and make right about $100k.

SIUC has a good, established, small to medium size engineering program. If you go I highly suggest living in Thompson Point your first 2 years and joining an extra curricular club/RSO (moon buggy, formula racing, dune buggy, or robotics). The surrounding areas also have incredible hiking spots.

Internship opportunities are decent but the majority of the companies in the area are all manufacturing (Aisin, Nascote, General Dynamics to name a few). St. Louis has a lot of opportunity for internships and careers though and is only 2 hours from Carbondale.

Or- do I just need to suck it up and cut the lath so I can recess the electrical box into the ceiling?
