It Never Freaking Occurred to Me to Think...

put a piece wood behind the sofa leg so it wont slide to the wall and tear it up.

While you are at it put one behind the fridge to maintain the required 2" clearance.

They did. It's called not sanding the pipe and brazing with 15% silfoss.

I was actually taught it was good practice to sand even if brazing… just saying

So you pulled your vac through the side port with the valve core?

yes, except I pulled the cores from the side ports

speaking of appliances, range manufacturers need to get their heads screwed back on straight. every one I see has the bumpouts in a different spot in back, so evrytime you get a new stove, have to move the plug or it wont go back to wall.

How do you check micron/vacuum level?

The thing I see a lot- everyone that comes to your house doesnt know where you put the house number, so dont be creative. by the front door or the mailbox, period. in the bushes, roof, out in yard I wont see in the 1 sec it takes to pass your house.

put the number on both sides your mailbox, people come from either direction. 1" number size for each 10 mph on the street speed limit. again, I'm not standing 2' from the mailbox like you were when you put the number on it.

Worst yet, nothing to be found and out in the country with no cell service so you can't even call to confirm which driveway to pull into.

Anytime this happens I make sure to mention it sternly to the customer or the wrong house occupants when it get there.
"I think you have the wrong house."
"If there was an address anywhere visible, I wouldn't be now would I?"

Or

"Sure would make things easier on me or an emergency vehicle if you had an address somewhere!"

And make sure the numbers on the house are able to be seen color wise, too. Black numbers on a brown house or brass numbers on a yellow house, etc.

On a different port.

I just might be the only one who did’t already know this by now but maybe not. Go slow with drill bits when drilling think metal. I went through so many bits over the years it’s embarrassing. I just figured they only last a few holes on the tough stuff. I did always use the oil but i was always using high speed on drill. I went through 5 of my 6 drill bits working with stainless plate last year, did some google learning and finished 10 more holes with last bit.
