Good Morning!!!! 44F @ 5:15AM. Some clouds this morning will give way to generally sunny skies for the afternoon. High 62F. Winds light and variable.
Still no rain in the 10-day.
When I installed Corian counter tops at my first home, I used carbide router bits to make the cuts, David. I imagine carbide tipped saw blades, for circular or saber saws, would work just as well, but might not give as smooth a cut.
I understand how MOVs could protect against an over current/voltage surge, Drew, but not how they would protect from a current/voltage sag. The sags are caused when large electrical motors start, and the only thing I've seen that provides that kind of protection are Uninterruptable Power Supplies.
Always looking to improve my tree felling skill set, Billy. What "non-approved methods" did you use?
I never realized there was a correlation between the amount of beer you have and how much snow you get, Mike. Since I can't remember the last time I ran out of beer, I suppose it's no wonder it seldom snows here...
Three of the four boxes of brake parts I've been waiting for have arrived, but the last one seems marooned at the FedEx facility in Chicago, where it's been since last Saturday. The FedEx website lists the status as Delayed in pretty red letters, and gives no projected delivery date. So I'll be on the phone with them today to find out what's going on.
I placed orders for a couple of relays that could be causing the starting problem on the van yesterday. I googled the part numbers on the ones I have, and found that Subaru gets an astonishing 600% markup on the one made by Denso. I couldn't find an OEM source for the other one, though.
Finished limbing the trees I had stacked up yesterday, and was sore again getting out of bed this morning. Not sure if I'll drag in more downed trees today, or switch to something a little less labor intensive and let my body have a break.
Happy Hump Day, folks!
