    And if you're not comfortable doing that than see
    Oz's advice above. Plumbing above finished areas is no place for half measures and bandaids

    Replacing the wall that seperated my living room from the kitchen and dining room. Some structural support but mostly decorative purposes. The main beam is huge.

    I wish I had Tesla stock , their solar roof tiles coupled with their Powerwall whole home battery are going to be a game changer

    They don't look bad either. Better than a large panel on the roof.

    I may be in the minority, but having lived on some form of solar or another over the last decade, I think big old solar panels are beautiful.

    I'm glad to see thinking outside the box (pun intended) of solar these days. Saw this on a road trip thru Colorado earlier this month.

    All the parts arrived intact and it's all assembled and working. So cool to have this old family lamp back to life!

    Our new shed is being built today. We got to a point where I time is valuable and didn't want to spend several weekends building our own. (We've done that several times in the past already).

    I'll be glad when it's done and we can transfer the contents of the old to the new and I get to demo the old one!

    I'm also digging culverts in the dirt drive to put in some water bars. Manual labor sucks while you're doing it but the accomplished feeling after is rewarding.

    You can try. The worst they can say is no. But if you get loud enough they probably will:D

    Dumb question maybe, but have you fooled with the thermostat knob?
