Should have sealed the hole at the side of the house and should have made a hole at the other side at the bottom so any trapped water goes out, like this it will start eventually leaking underneath the house...
We have a bandit chipper at work. Theres a kick plate right under the shute where the rollers are. Kick it down a few times after a couple loads and itll be smooth sailing. Especially if you're chipping something with leaves/needles on it
Saving old equipment is so much more satisfying than buying new! That said, my current mower was new when we got it, but it is satisfying taking care of it and making sure it never ends up "junk".
Ah yes, cloth wiring. Sketchy to look at, but somehow feels safer to me than modern wiring. It’s lasted 100 years without fault, I’ll just replace it as needed.
I had a new fridge that was about a year old. Spent $20 replacing my fan. It’s crazy that people would waste a whole fridge rather than spend some time watching some videos and troubleshooting. Better to buy that new fridge for $3k right?
Always double check if you have any voltage on the outlet before working on it. To be 110% sure you opened the right breaker fuse in the distribution box.
