If you're going to hire it out, call the local HVAC places and see what they say. Get a couple quotes. They will undoubtedly provide a suitable unit as part of the job.

5906 posts and you are yet still somehow unaware that you clearly need a second tractor?!?! Turn in your TBN card, sir! 🤪

I've posted it before, but this is the clamp I made for this,

Then you'll like this one from a small WI chain that has one nearby: :ROFLMAO: https://milwaukeeburgercompany.com/bloody_of_the_month/ I kinda doubt that anyone actually orders these as I suspect they are just for show, but their regular bloodys are awesome and they add a couple chunks of...

LOL. We went to one restaurant that was great overall, but they added 50 cents for cream with coffee. It was so weird and out of place that we still mock it a year or more later. I think they had the CC fee, but that is pretty much everyone nowadays. Otherwise not a bunch of BS fees there.

I also pull my own purchases from the shelves in the grocery store, Target, etc. That is akin to pumping your own gas: gathering up the products you want to buy. Paying at the pump is a BONUS service as it means I don't have to waste time going into the store and standing behind the moron...

Well color me curious... if you don't use straps, what do you use? Chains? Ropes? Faith?

These got so bad in Minneapolis in particular, that the state legislature outlawed it a year or so ago. The restaurants cried to high heaven but it is a bait and switch pure and simple and should not be allowed. I still see it a bit in WI in a couple places, but they keep it pretty small so it...

It seems pretty obvious that the van was on the upper deck of that car hauler to the right that is mostly out of frame, and it was too tall for the underpass...

Arly, very sorry for your loss. Never easy.

Not everyone gets to retire willingly when they want. Some for health reasons as you noted, others due to layoffs at a late age where nobody will hire you, but not quite old enough to really retire. I have seen a TON of the latter the past 10 years around here. If it also coincides with a...

Actually he is spot on. The biggest risk to a secure retirement is retiring into a down market. (Assuming you had sufficient savings going into that point. If you didn't save much, well there isn't much help for you at this point no matter what.) The problem with this one scenario is that...

Wood finishes slow down moisture movement a lot. So finished furniture will lag the ambient moisture quite a bit ion summer and then never fully match it, as once it turns winter again it will start to reverse. But a lot depends on the climate and you are in SC and I am in WI... Very dry...

If that is the only task for this blower, find yourself a compact or subcompact tractor with a loader and bucket. Street plows leave very heavy and deep snow and blowers don't work so well on that. They work best on dry light snow. A bucket will make short work of that without strain or risk...

You can buy a kit at Menards/HD for a few bucks (very cheap) that can rekey up to 6 locks to the same key. It will be a new key, that comes with the kit, but they will all be the same. Your locks all have to be the same type, typically Schlage or Kwikset patterns. It's not hard but it is tiny...
