Hey all, I'm building a retaining wall but found my weep pipe in the process, would it make sense leaving it exposed and building around it, or building the retaining wall in front of it?

Hey all, I made the switch to mini splits about 9 months ago, so I'd like to reclaim some basement space for my theoretical remodel I have in my head.

Is it recommended to rip out a perfectly fine oil heater and okayish ducting? While i'm not planning on selling any time soon, I don't want to affect the resale value. As far as I know the oil furnace is only a few years old, the underground tank I have no idea, never had it inspected but I know its empty and the ducting would need replacing anyway if they were used for AC.

Anyone have any tips on this?

Feels like any time I get to 250+ I just get drowsy for the rest of the day even when my blood gets back to normal.

So we just had a ton of rain, I live on a hill and after it settled down I noticed I had a new water feature in my yard.

The area is kind of where my leech field should end, the water itself seems to be coming out of a hole I've never seen before, any ideas on what it is? It didnt have any kind of smell and it was quite clear. Now that its stopped raining its settled down, so I'm a bit less worried

I have this drain in my early 1970's house, the septic pipes are cast iron so this is more modern than that, had a plumber come by once and said its an old drain that goes out into the yard, said it wasn't code and he capped it as it was open and pointing upward, now i'm wondering if I should just go ahead and cut the whole thing out and seal the hole as I'm fighting some humidity issues and I figure if its no longer needed. Does anyone know what this could have been used for? Or if I can even use it at all?

Started ripping down the wood paneling stuff to find the staircase is mostly held together with nails, non of which seem to be fastened together. Anything I can do to improve the structure of it?

Hey all

Got a new to me split level with a leaky and not functioning garage door, wanting to replace it and put double doors in its place. Concrete floor and cinder block walls around it at the moment

What's the best way of doing this? All DIY, but I'm seeing a bunch of conflicting information on what I need when placing pressure treated lumber to the concrete floor, some say I need sill foam, others say I just need caulk, obviously I want this done properly and for it to last and not being able to find the right information is killing me.

So we bought a house from the 1970's, the propane oven is old and only the burners work so we're looking to eventually replace.

We wanted to get to get behind the oven and paint since its long overdue but when it came to moving the oven, it proved to be challenging and I ended up seeing this down as the gas connection, this cant be right can it?

Was trying to put in a new sink, decided to take out the probably 20 - 30 year old P trap and found it was pretty much attached with some kind of putty or epoxy, who knows.

I have PVC pipe but nothing that I can think of using to fit against that gross metal pipe. Anyone have any recommendations or products I can use?

I've been trying to find a IP camera / DVR / security camera solution with my raspi.

For clarification, it only seems to be the pi doing this, streaming the RTSP to VLC or viewing on the ipcam itself doesn't produce this, its happened both with ZoneMinder and MotionEye. Motion is on its latest version

Does anyone have any experience with this? It seems that when motion does happen on the stream it causes those artifacts you can see on the link below, it switches between normal this this grey screen every 15 seconds or so, but the grey only lasts for 2 or 3

Thank you

So I was led to believe that these were plug and play for the most part.

I was on A4988 for all stepper drivers on my SKR 1.3, moved to TMC2208 for my X and Y axis but after updating marlin to use #define X_DRIVER_TYPE TMC2208 / #define Y_DRIVER_TYPE TMC2208 the stepper motors for those axis are now moving twice as fast / moving double the steps for my bed size. E.g. my bed is 220 x 220, when moving axis in marlin to 50mm, it goes to halfway on the bed.

Anyone know what I'm missing? I've watched a few youtube videos and they don't mention anything, they just seem to work off the bat.

Printer is / was an Anet a6-l, I've set the voltage of the stepper drivers to around .700
