    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    The washer drain is by code a 2" pipe. I looked at my friend's plumbing, which has a similar situation. He got a plumber to do it, and there is no vent. It might not be up to code, but it drains properly. I found something that might interest others while installing a washer and laundry tub...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Thanks for the cooktop info. Back to the washing machine drain. The main drain(3") is right beside the hot water tank. If buddy cuts a Tee in the main drain, installs a p-trap and a standpipe, does he need to worry about venting the installation? I stumbled over a reference that said it is...

    Enough of COVID...what are you doing to the house?

    Does anyone have some insight into cutting a cooktop into a wood countertop? in particular, the Ikea Vrena countertop, which is veneer over particle board. The Ikea manual shows a picture of a cooktop cut into it, but it does not have other details. Is it compatible with radiant or induction...

    Asking for a friend. The hot water tank has drain for the pressure relief pipe. If he bumps the tank over can he share the drain with a washing machine? Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Moving out of Province? Pro's & Con's

    I moved to BC South coast and I rather live in a van, doge caravan, not sprinter than have a cushy life in TO. It rains a lot in the fall and winter but I look at it as meters of snow in the mountains. Many Ontarians that moved here find it miserable after a few years if they are not in to the...

    Homelessness Solved in U.S. Sanctuary New York City during COVID last year

    Yes! War on drugs is a proven successful policy. IMHO. Legalize everything. Drugs don't make people violent, sourcing them creates violence. Set up all inclusive camps outside of populated areas. I know, it's an immoral solution. Rehab and support would be so much better but there's no funds...

    Anyone here a cyclist?

    I switched to SPD SH-56 for road and MTB. They are easier to get out of, considerably safer and I never released inadvertently. I used to occasionally hit the ground due to pushing my track stands too much with SH-51 cleats. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Does anyone know what 12x8 rectangular duct costs per foot if you are in the industry? Also, what exactly is "light residential" round duct? It's cheaper than 30ga so I assume it is thinner...

    Here's one for the conservatives. Starting your own software company or charity foundation is easier if you have contacts in the government. Cool? High 5s all around. Sent from my Pixel 5 using Tapatalk

    Many are lucky to be born in a position of privilege that gives them a head start. You have a very narrow view if you think exploration can be refuted by your workplace experience. For example, starting your own company in construction can be considerably easier if your family has...
