Lead poisoning is effective.

Wtf, citizen royal oak knock off for $2k...

While I agree that politicians houses should be off-limits and protests should be at the legislature, I am sick of politicians labeling bills as one thing and burying unrelated things inside. This happens regardless of party and shows how low their moral character is.

How long do you plan on staying in the house? I think that may come into play. Whatever you install, you want it to look great when you plan to sell but I wouldn't put much weight on anything after that. Solid chance new owners have different plans and cut it down anyway.

I have no idea. I don't use gloves when using it so it may not smoke seals. You could try with a chain near thee end of its life and see what happens.

Evaporust converts red to black. Then wd40/oil/fluid film to stop the problem from reocurring.

The upside to a small municipality is I walk up to a desk and talk to a nice person that knows things. The downside is I probably get the same person every time I walk in until they retire. If I don't like their answer/process, I don't have many options.

Higher MSRP inflates the value of the used ones and make existing owners happy about the performance of their "investment" too. That may make them more likely to buy more. For Omega/Breitling/Rolex etc, the exclusivity is weak at best. Making millions of watches per year (Rolex alone is...

I bought all the plans the municipality had for my house. The closest thing they have to what you want is a lot grading plan with water and sanitary shown on the public side of the lot line. There are no details of anything on the private side of the line. Theoretically, I would expect a set of...

Where is 30' compared to the property line (obviously an educated guess)? At a sad point in my life, my wife broke her diamond off her engagment ring and I was fishing for it in a septic tank (I don't know if that's where it was, I never found it). While I am doing that, someone decided to take...

Good luck. Municipal council occasionally still has decent humans as candidates. It sounds like you fit in that category. I hope you win.

Cool. A guy in Vancouver is handmaking watches (actual watches, not just cases with purchased movements). As expected, they are pricey ($85k to 115k). He included some tiny Robertson screws as a nod to Canadian history. I wonder if he ships a screwdriver with the watch or if he expects whoever...

Option 4, voip number that forwards to his phone so no data is required as the phone sees it as a normal incoming call (although this is a bigger pain for outgoing calls that appear to come from the business number).

You can create numbers with them (and virtual fax machines if you want). If you haven't setup voip before, acronyms can be confusing. Abridged version of process. Order DID to get a phone number (or multiple phone numbers). They can be in canada, US, international, toll free, fax numbers, etc...

Some phones will take double sim or single sim plus an sd card. I don't know if they are capable of receiving calls on both sims or if you have to switch back and forth in settings.

You want it to go to your cell phone? I use VOIP.ms for work phones. It's cheap and I can make whatever I want ring (including cell phones). Technically, I can dial out through it too from a cell phone but I don't bother. That requires dialing in, gaining access and then dialing out so call...

While you can measure the length of snake out and make assumptions, some have a locating beacon on the head so you can go and locate and paint a line on the lawn. Depending on vintage, sometimes the physical transition between city and and you is visible as well (eg two different materials). The...

I'm pretty sure there used to be one available with cast iron, non-coated plates. I think my grandma had one. Keep your eyes open in thrift stores. They should be cheap there.

I don't know what's available in toronto. Cast-in-place lining is possible which is much cheaper than digging and leaves you with a slippery pipe that roots can't penetrate. A lot depends on the condition of your existing pipe. I would be looking for someone to do camera/auger/camera.

It may not drop prices but it can keep them from rising as fast or far. It all depends how they play with the taps. Now there is another major player with the ability to control prices. An interesting play would be to partner with refiners and major consumers (like airlines) for long-term fuel...
