Displaced Texan

Hahaha!! I like the way you think! Lol We need to get you into shooting clays too...

He said that because you were doing work in his kitchen!! Just to be nice....hell, we ALL say your meatloaf is good, just to be nice.

I think you and I are gonna get along just fine!! @Zeke s ‘meatloaf’ is an unnatural abomination...as are his ‘crock pot ribs’. Run far, far away....

Oh dear God.....I’m a Texan. No beans belong in chili. However, that’s a discussion for another time. Some of these Damn Yankee heathens insist on beans.... Love ya, BH, but damn if you don’t talk a good cooking game, but none of us ever tasted your bbq! Even so, still love ya, brother! Oh, and for the record, Zeke LOVES to eat my meat. Especially my sausage.

He might be!! He might be my new bestest friend!! I might have a slight man crush.

Ok, you can stay. You certainly devoured my brisket, chili, and ribs...I didn’t hear you bitching...only asking for more... Shall I bring up how much you love to eat my sausage?!

Not so fast... Mr. Forks....do you bbq ribs on a smoker the proper way, or make them in a crock pot like a heathen? Your survival on this forum depends on the correct answer.

Howdy!! Welcome to the forum!

‘Zeke speak’ for comms....oh hell, what could POSSIBLY go wrong there?!

I think I have the same symptoms.... And, the thought of Zeke piloting an aircraft scares the crap out of me...

Recent build...Colt 6944 upper on a Zev lower. TA-01-NSN ACOG. Magpul sling. Backup rifle to my primary.

Reality TV....isn’t. I know they cherry pick things to best represent the ‘guidelines’ (loose ‘script’) they want to portray. I’m sure that’s more difficult in police TV shows, but I have no doubt that’s what’s going on. Take what you see with a grain of salt. I knew a couple of guys who were on that older ‘reality’ TV show called ‘Rattlesnake Republic’. I think it was on Animal Planet several years ago. Both of them told me that although it’s portrayed as ‘live action reality’...they were given a very loose script about the direction they wanted the show to go...for dramatic purposes. Wasn’t anywhere close to real. I wouldn’t take ANYTHING you see on ‘reality’ TV as anywhere close to reality, regardless of the subject matter.

If you’re ever out in Milford Ct, take the tour, see the museum. Totally worth it, very educational.

That’s a good trade

I believe the consensus is...no one cares what he thinks.

I’m surprised he didn’t.

His daughter was aboard the helo as well.

Apparently this is just developing. Died in a helicopter crash. Story here

Navy Federal Credit Union does it for free if you are a member. I did $900 in coins not too long ago.

Got it running. The blower motor runs ok. I played with the pressure switch some more, I think I had the vacuum lines inadvertently swapped around. Since the tech is already in the way, I’ll at least have him get me a spare pressure switch. The guy who originally installed the system did a crap job, and the gas line puts pressure on the bottom of the motor case. Sometimes this makes noise, and has, in the past, caused the motor to overheat due to pressure on the motor. Almost putting it in a bind. I’ll have him fix that. Get my moneys worth.

Direct drive.

My turn....furnace crapped out last night. The blink code on the control board indicates a pressure switch is open, but I think the switch is good....as I’ve replaced it with a known good spare. The blower motor case is HOT! I’m thinking the logic circuit thinks the blower is running (when it’s actually not), and since the pressure switch hasn’t closed due to the vacuum in the plenum, it’s flagging a pressure sensor fault. Turned off power to the furnace and let the motor cool down (shouldn’t take long...it’s 63° in here!! I’m going to call a service guy on this one, as I don’t have quick access to a replacement blower motor. At least I’m working from home today to deal with this one. Earlier in the week I was on a business trip, and my wife would have had to deal with this. She wouldn’t have been happy. Edited to add: I let the blower motor cool down until it was cool to the touch. Powered on the furnace, I can hear the motor humming, but it doesn’t start. I think the motor is toast. Probably not going to be a cheap fix. Ugh
