    Need some plumbing work done.

    previous owner didn't run gas to the stove or dryer when they finished the basement, I'd like to fix that. Also, I'd like to add a return line and recirculation pump to a hot water line in that same path.

    Trust me, I started there and it was way too much for a basically uncooked sauce.

    Your biggest problem with that pizza is the pineapple.. :rofl: To get the crust consistently thick, I spread it out on a piece of non-stick foil. This lets you push the dough around all you want to get the thickness even. Put the pizza on the stone with the foil and after a minute or so just...

    At the request of @nnnnnate Pizza recipies and techniques. Starter: I have one that has been around for about 18 years... it's not very sour, but rises really well. I keep it at 100% hydration in the fridge and am very willing to share. Dough: makes 1200g 75% hydration dough (very soft)...

    Anyone into 3D printing?

    Well that was pretty cool.... I got a new Makita palm sander and needed an adapter from the 3/4" dust port to my small shop vac hose... 30 min in Onshape yielded this TPU is some really odd stuff to work with. After completely ignoring the the printed label for 170-200*C for the hot end...

    Can we talk dogs?

    Mine are the opposite. Both are Aussie-Doodles but the first one is 3/4 Standard poodle and extremely chill. The second is 50-50 and barks at his own echo bouncing off the mountain.

Another common issue when learning to weld is moving too fast. Learn to watch the puddle, keep your stickout short...

    Trip Report Swell Therapy Report

    So for those of you that tried my brisket, how did it compare to cooking brisket on a pellet grill? It's a huge difference in effort, but I think what you tried was some of the best brisket I've ever made and far better than I've ever done on a pellet grill.
