    Surprised the walk-in box isn’t sporting at least 4” panels bein’ FL ‘n all. Most of our boxes were 3” panels excluding military & institutions. Sure can tell who’s got money to spend.

    Mornin Folks :)

    Woke up to more Plumbing issues. I'm definitely no expert, but all the plumbers in town said they wouldn't be able to come until after the 4th. Cant have that. So a frustrating day laying in the mud in my crawlspace ahead

    i was able to fail wood shop . Then the teacher drew up paper work that from that day . I would only ever touch wood that was being burnt or thrown in a dumpster.

    Metal studs were a gift from the Gods.

    Keys acquired and first load brought to the kids apartment. I'm back home with another load ready to go but he's in class for another 45 minutes.

    Then we get to go shopping for all the other stuff he still needs - kitchen and bathroom garbage cans, bathroom floor mat, etc.

    Well, no dice for fixing my water leaks. And no plumbers available. Looks like pooping in a bucket and sponge baths

    Oh man….

    I missed what the issue was. Could you post up a brief description?

    Also, are you active in your local thread? Even if you’re not, put out a call for help there. Plumbing isn’t rocket surgery and many might have skills to get you through to when a pro can get there.

    Good Luck :thumbsup:

    If I may suggest (although you likely already know) Get a baffle so the Evap. fan doesn’t blow directly on the product. Gravity coils were always the best for meat but few are in existence today & cost a shit ton to operate & repair.
