    Political So now what

    what makes fast food workers more special then others making the state minimum wage? That is so stupid. The fast food places are likely already paying above minimum wage. Now, all those expenses are going to pushed on the consumer and these people will not be any further ahead. As much...

    Let's Talk Lawns

    I am finally wrapping up the leveling of my backyard...and need a little guidance on what is the best way to address/amend the soil I have. To give a little more detail, the backyard used to slope down about 3' on the west end. With the addition and such, we had to remove our fence, which...

    What books are you reading (or listening to?)

    If you like historic fiction, I really enjoyed Ken Follet's Century Trilogy. Fall of Giants, Winter of the World, & Edge of Eternity. If you are familiar with Ken Follett's series, you will understand. It follows 3 generations (1 each book) of various families in different parts of the...

    Is it ok to have a "make light of" thread?

    Got to love the price 🤣 and the last line of the add. "Text if more pictures are needed" 3 pics of the interior only. Also, this was posted under the Rockcrawlers section. Not sure if it was posted in the general Cars section. https://classifieds.ksl.com/listing/73289490

    Nate’s longterm tiny shop build

    What amp sub are you doing? I have seen the cheat where you tie a string to the wire, then to a ball wrapped in soft cloth around it to basically fill the pipe and use a vacuum to suck it through I am guessing with a 100amp sub (would need 2awg wire) it may not be the easiest pull..but still...

    Nate’s longterm tiny shop build

    I would sweep around the side. It is the gray plastic conduit? What size service are you running? You can heat it up to get more gentle bends in so you end up with more of a 45* out of the existing concrete and another 45* to go around the shop corner. You shouldn't need a ground out...

    A Little Rant on Today's Generation of Kids and Their (lack of) Work Ethic

    My brother is the same. He divorced a few years ago and kept the house. I have bought 2 rental duplexes, so each of my daughters can have 1 when I die. I would let each of them live in one for a lower then market rent to help them out....as everyone else has said, as long as they are...

    What did you work on Today; Home Edition

    after another weekend and a few weeknights, the wall is complete, as is the fence. I didn't plan on this project happening for a while, but with the addition and fence tear down, it had to happen sooner. final project (minus a skirt board on the bottom to finish it off, which will happen...

    A Little Rant on Today's Generation of Kids and Their (lack of) Work Ethic

    Golden handcuffs of low interest rates. That isn't something that affects younger people. It affects everyone wanting to upgrade. Why upgrade though? If you have a house, why move?

    A Little Rant on Today's Generation of Kids and Their (lack of) Work Ethic

    I've managed lower skilled workers quite a bit for over 20 years. I do have to say that there is something going on. The 1st 5-10 years, you had your fair share of bad apples that didn't want to work, but generally, I think you were looking at 1/10 that didn't work out due to them being lazy...

    What did you work on Today; Home Edition

    Well another few days of A LOT of work. Spent the whole weekend building a retaining wall. I am doing an addition and the excavator needed to go through my neighbor's driveway to get into my backyard. After 2 months of it being dug and finally getting the last of the dirt out I was able...

    Political So now what

    Unfortunately, the problem is that the voters ultimately have to plug their nose and vote. They have little say in who is really put up for either party's candidate. SO, when you are stuck picking between an 80yr old vs 80yr old, you don't really have many options. We as a populace do...

    Is it ok to have a "make light of" thread?

    Another "Honey, I listed it for sale....I don't know why it hasn't sold" post :rofl: If not, it has to be a scam of some kind. https://classifieds.ksl.com/listing/73011651 $35k for a J20 that isn't mint? Even if it was mint, I can't see $35k for it. Those wheels alone should knock $$ off...

    RME Land Owners Group??

    To me, the bigger question is, how much land are you talking about? You are roughly $350/acre more then you think it's worth at bottom dollar. Is this 100 acres, therefore costing you $35k, or is this 10 acres costing you $3500? Those 2 things are very different. For 10 Acres and $3500...

    Let's Talk Lawns

    I need to figure out my lawn. The backyard is destroyed due to an addition we are doing. They still haven't gotten all the dirt out, and I took advantage of the contractors excavator and the weekend to try and level off the yard (planned this for a long time) I removed some concrete...

    Remodel & Handyman business - anyone do it?

    I have been thinking about starting a handyman (although I feel this has a slight negative, low skilled meaning)/remodeling business on the side, and can't help think/dream of turning it into a full time gig in the future. I am pretty handy/good at interior remodeling, although I tend to be a...

    HVAC guys?

    The capacitor would be on the AC unit. The fuses are likely in the disconnect panel by the AC units. Is the condenser spinning when the system is calling for air or does the outside fan not spin? If it doesn't spin then your trouble shooting is sound. Fuse is more likely given the...
