    Today is a special day. May the 25th is a day that DA Dorks celebrate and wear their towel with pride. It also happens to coincide with another SW Dork day of the day Star Wars was released. And to add another cherry on top, it’s been 42 years since the day Star Wars was released.

    So long, and thanks for all the fish!

    I may have tweaked a few things...
    My landscaping irrigation system needs some major help. Several of the controllers have been chewed by animals (could be raccoons or possums or ?) and I may even need to do complete reroutes where the system was broken/buried after having some trees removed.

    I was wondering if anyone here could recommend a good book that covers all aspects of installing and repairing. Wouldn’t mind if it also included drip systems as we have plans to eventually build some raise beds. I see some books on Amazon that might be good just figured some of you here might also have a good recommendation.

    Some of the irrigation mfg have stuff on their websites that will help. Lowe’s and Home Depot do as well.

    Thanks, I’m checking out HD today. Someone else had suggested looking for the same thing so maybe that will be enough for now.

    They're pretty simple systems (well, electrically that is) that can be explained in pretty much a single sheet of paper.

    A lot of crap and too much money spent
    I would do the install of the suspension myself and save $600. Or I would see if you can get some dudes to help for pizza and beer. This is a lot cheaper than $600. Good luck :thumbsup:

    Off Hesperian and Industrial. Turning left on Eden Park Place in Hayward next to the Pepsi Factory.
