Did you remove the blade or leave it on there like a mong?

Killing moles, cutting 6 inch diameter poison ivy vines with a chainsaw, building birdhouses and mulching.

I had the electric service dump 20 cubic meters of wood chips, I'm expecting another load tomorrow. I put 40lbs of fertilizer on it and it was melting the snow from last week. It steams when I turn it. Every day I get 30 to 100lbs of coffee grounds from Starbucks to add to the pile.

We cleared all the bushes and smaller hardwoods, built a fence, and planted 20 evergreens since new year. I'll rent a truck or trailer in March and buy 50 to a hundred shrubs and trees. My wife also wants 4 raised beds.

I've been spreading the wood chips across the yard in low spots and will till it all with my cultivator in April and plant grass.

My tree and grass yesterday.

>>2008945
Wood chips on the dirt.

>>2008875
Not if you mulch them in by the middle of November or so with your mower. No patches here. Enjoy paying for fertilizer instead of basically cutting your grass one more time for the year.

>>2008950
Don't need it. Good soil here

>>2008969
Not with that attitude.

>Amprobe 6030 wire tracer
it will work fine, they make tracers you can hook strait up to the wire while HOT.

this kind of tracer doesn't get a lot of range as compared to a direct connection de-energized. that is the signal bleeds.

the claw clamps around the wire and creates a signal by magnetism.

you can also trace with a multi-meter but it is a little more manual and requires some mental mapping.

>>2008882

thanks m8. yeah the usual method is hooking one end to ground and testing for continuity. but thats limited in practice.

This model has a direct hookup with hot/cold wires. the signal clamp is an additional option.

Yes.
You dont connect the ground anyways to the cal port.
The scope is already grounded to itself

just show him a screenshot, why write an essay

i think ill print something and show it around in class. lets see how that turn out.

>>2008650
Look closer
Cutting teeth have a clearance angle and rake angle.
They may cut on the backstroke, but with inefficient geometry.

>>2008650
>most commonly used saws are double action
Double action saws are far from common and are largely extinct. Buck saw blades are the only remotely common saw which cuts on both push and pull. In almost all saws the return stroke is used for clearing dust and you need tall teeth with rakers for anything approaching decent performance if the saw cuts on both strokes. Buck saws and other green wood saws can get away with tall and very aggressive teeth since quality of cut does not matter, so they can sacrifice every second or third tooth as a raker and the softness of green wood means those tall aggressive teeth will still have decent life.

You do occasionally see them in cheap saws and they are occasionally attempted to be brought back so manufacturer can exploit the marketing gimmick of "cuts on both strokes so twice as efficient!" but that is only true on very narrow stock since they can not clear the dust and the saw stops cutting and possibly binds on anything much thicker than your thumb.

Rough cut cross cut saws of the european tradition are the one exception, they often use equilateral teeth which do cut on both the push and the pull, but they are not common saws since they leave a very rough cut and tear out badly. These are meant for rough cutting very rough sawn but dried wood to length before surfacing, so the tear out is not an issue. Not many people have use for such saws anymore and wood rough enough to make them useful is not common, even right from the mill since modern mills give a pretty damn good cut.

>>2008688
Will add before some pedantic 4chan autist tries to prove me wrong with examples of saws which cut on both strokes. Yes, there are some specialty saws which do cut both ways, but these are purpose design saws and not common, most people have little use for something like a veneer saw.

He has an infection under the skin caused by Staphylococcus. Without antibiotics there is a small chance he will die.

It is very common for cats that fight other cats to get boils like that.

>>2008915
Yes.

Get an air hammer.

>>2008644
Let me google that for you, oh no, looks like nobody has done it before.

>>2008644
Google “stone mason chisel set” its straight forward, if it isn’t somehow then check YouTube for videos.

>>2008644
I was actually thinking about something like this recently, my old cat is getting pretty frail and I literally dont know what I should do when he passes.

how does your family feel about living in a refrigerator during the winter?

>>2008814
I like a nice, toasty house in the winter time. It's the only time I can actually enjoy warmer temperatures thanks to low humidity.

>>2008851
They feel cold.

>>2008851
They feel just fine about it. My lady and I spent a few years in a yurt and a few in cabins while we saved up to buy so she is more or less of the same mind on things as I am. Also, it is somewhat difficult to view 50f as cold after spending the winter of 14' (polar vortex winter) in a yurt, we did not break -20f for over 3 months.

>>2008890
Nah, they all have sweaters as well.

There is a way, you will need to pour some liquid silicone on a good undamaged area of the plastic and let it set. Peel it off and mix epoxy to pour into the damaged areas, then set the silicone on top and add light pressure, not too much where it causes the silicone to force epoxy out of the area, but just enough for it to remain flush and let the epoxy cure. Once that's done you have original texture.

>>2008592
Just google "plastic screen scratch remover" or something like that

Hoping to move into commercial jobs after trying out residential but a lawnmower might be a good idea for later, too.

DO NOT buy consumer grade pressure washers from lowes. get a good commercial one 3000psi or more. they are like 600 bucks but you will make that back after a few jobs. well worth the expense. consumer shit is cheap made garbage thats alot of plastic

nice support ribs on this one

Last information, do what you want. Just wonder what 1 drop will do while drilling steel

>>2008536
looool 4 drops of vegetable oil would do the same thing?

what brand are you here to shill? Whats your magic nano lube?

Chembro here o/
That looks like an old type of gas regulators. So if I get this right you tighten up too much one of those side ports and then it started bleeding out? I'm guessing you fucked the screw line, best thing you can do is filling it up with something or add a cap with a good amount of PTFE tape also... probably it's time to get a new one

Call the person who supplies you with the gas chief. Send em a pic and they will come fix it.

>>2008388
>I tightened this clockwise and it made a loud pop and started bleeding gas even louder.
You most likely ruined the thread, congratulations. You will need a new one.

>>2008388
turn grey knob on top of tank clockwise
buy new regulator
don't fuck with this shit even if its nitrogen just get a new one

>>2008636
this plus find competent technician that understands and maintains gas lines
ask him what is what and how to everything
it will be either one of boiler suit guys wandering around or a bloke that delivers gas bottles
it might save your life in future

>>2008328

dont worry its just one paper and they didn't even link the actual paper (makes it impossible to actually critique). Current research has this at not being a problem. Maybe if your blankets are hellishly tight and allow no airflow and you manage to seal yourself in, then sure maybe covering your head is a problem.

Also swimmers subject themselves to low oxygen fucking constantly, and so far there is no correlation to Alzheimer's with them.

>>2008476
Hows it going buddy
What did you end up doing for appliances for cooking food?

Why would a doctor (objectively the most chad profession) need to jerk off at work? Nurses are disgusting bestial sluts and they'll sleep with any MD just for the remote chance that they can get money (with or without locking him down with a baby)

I have mold and feel like I am slowly getting sick.

Work harder, get a nicer place. Good luck bro.

>>2008428
Okay, temp 21c with humidity 40% gives you dewpoint of 7c. So when you walls are 7c water will condense on them. If your humidity is above 40 % you can lower it some and that will reduce the problem - with 30% humidity dewpoint is only 2.7c. Its not exactly healthy, but probably healthier than mold. In winter lowering humidity is really easy, you just increase ventilation.

F***, I paid a lot of money for my place, now I'm getting sick in this mold trap.
I'm contemplating putting up a makeshift bed in my kitchen or asking if I can live in my parents vacation house.

I am a poor European.
Today I have to sleep in the kitchen because the bedroom and living-room has mold and I am already sick.

I don't have an answer anon, but i have a simar question so I'm partially hijacking this thread.

I'm in the US, got into gardening last year and really enjoyed it. I grew a lot of standard varieties of fruits last year, so this year I want to branch out to varieties that don't suit themselves well to commercialization, but taste really good.

I do see the cotton candy grapes at stores sometimes, but something like that i might be interested in. I also did moonglow and bartlett pears, fuji and red delicious apples, belle of georgia and elberta peaches, and a nectarine I can't remember the name of.

Anyway, a lot of those are well known commercial varieties, which means they're made to ship and stay good in grocery stores. So I was hoping to get fruit suggestions on varieties that are more flavorful, but not good for shipping so you don't see them commercialy.

>>2008431
>So I was hoping to get fruit suggestions on varieties that are more flavorful, but not good for shipping so you don't see them commercialy.

plant a fig tree. in 20 years you will be glad you did. nothing like a fresh fig.

>>2008431
Maybe Cherimoya and paw paw

>>2008439
I did pick up a fig sappling last year but didn't get too much growth. I should mention I'm doing all of this in pots for now as I'm renting a house. Got debt free this year though so the goal is to buy next winter and get all these trees in the ground.
