    Will this work

    A smarter solution is to run long hot water branch lines from closer to the water heater. Code dictates water main size but the branches can be small. One for the shower and one for the washing machine. 3/8" tubing holds 1/4 the water a 3/4" tubing holds so hot water comes 4 times faster. Less...

    Solar battery/maintainers

    I'd move the batteries to where there's power or buy a long extension cord. Then any $10 wall wart maintainer will do. 50¢ electricity per year

    Shop heat

    I found the radiant heaters don't need constant adjustments like the convection ones. The fuel level, under the wick, stays constant as the fuel is consumed. For no smell ignite outside and occasionally service the wick. Bet your glad you had it. :)

    My heat comes from gas furnaces and solar but when all else fails, no matter what, the kerosene heater works. Think Texas back in 2021. That said, I haven't used it in three years. You have to be careful with any space heater.

    Shop heat

    Fleet Farm sells kerosene from a auto service (gasoline) pump for $5 a gallon, 35% cheaper than electricity. It's fail safe, if electricity go's out you still have heat. 🥶

    Shop heat

    If you have natural gas available, like the OP, converting to propane would likely double your fuel cost. To the m16ty. If you just want radiant heat for a couple hours without heating the whole place, check out a cheap radiant kerosene heater. Kerosene is expensive but there's no smell after...

    Personally I prefer working at 55°or so, only cranking up the heat when the work requires. Paint etc. A cold blooded friend owns a battery powered sweatshirt and wool socks.

    You've got natural gas! Get a used gas house furnace with a cheap box fan near the ceiling to stir things up. That what I use in Wisconsin, keeping in mind, my 30x48' shop is easier to heat than my house. Ready heaters running on diesel are awful.

    Battery charger

    "Smart chargers" have been like that for twenty years. That's why I keep repairing my fifty year old dumb charger. Ten minutes on the dumb charger brings the battery back from the dead then the higher amps and better charging profile from the smart charger. I'll loan out the smart charger but...

    Need help locating mower parts

    Have you tried Craigslist? Ariens wanted >$2000 for mower parts for my GT18. Placed a Craigslist ad for the parts and found a rusted out deck for $100 with the parts, and then some, twelve miles away. The GT was almost history.

    Anyone ever blow horse manure and straw with a snow blower?

    Sister in law has it piled along the driveway. :)

    Rural TV antenna

    My 50 year old, beat up, antenna and rotor pulls in 100 channels from >70 miles away using this $20 to $30 RCA preamp. Only snag is the time deleting all the unwanted channels. [/img] PS Don't buy that used one off Fleabay, you can buy a new one from a store for less. This post was...

    refrigerator/freezer mystery

    Model numbers etc are useless nowadays, or eighteen years ago. Most makes come out from the same factory. Perhaps someone will recognize it from a photo from inside the empty freezer?
