There is a pretty standard disclaimer in construction submittals noting that approval of construction documents does not necessarily relieve you of the need to follow laws and code requirements. If you don’t have something in writing saying that a variance is approved then you should assume that it is not and someone could notice at any time. Up to you what kind of risks you want to take there, I imagine that enforcement can vary significantly. withak fucked around with this message at 04:23 on Jun 1, 2022 |

Maybe set down a line of more charismatic decorative rocks in front of it? Or if bigger rocks aren’t available then maybe a faux dry stone wall made of smaller rocks so it looks less like exposed rubble?

Is it rocking or are some connections slipping/bending? If rocking then shim up whichever corner of the legs is high. If bending then tighten the bolts. If tightening the bolts doesn’t work then send it back because it is defective.

other people posted:Okay more fun at my parents home. All their toilets fill the bowl practically to the brim. I have adjusted the floats as low as they go and things are a bit better but there is still way to much water in the bowl imho. The water level is controlled by a type of trap at the back of the bowl, the float only controls how much water is used in each flush (which will basically always be more than the normal volume in the bowl). If the bowl is suddenly filling too high then the trap could be partially blocked.

If it is an old toilet that has always done it then maybe it is just a weird outdated design from someone who was thinking fuller = better than.

Danhenge posted:Actual question: could a toilet being off-level contribute to it filling too much (or too little, for that matter)? Yes but it would probably have to be off significantly to matter. I.e. you would be sliding off the seat. Just mentally rotate the diagrams above, keeping the water line horizontal and at the level of the lip in the trap.

Some times you remove them by picking up the front of the drawer when it is fully extended. The wheels lift up through a gap in the top of the rail with no levers etc. involved.

You could put some sheets of plywood or similar flat up against the walls to carry the load instead. Rest the desktop on the top edge of those.

Do you really need to take the tank apart to replace that? I’ve never done it but I would have guessed that it just unscrews from the bottom of the tank. Anyway, least invasive modification may be to cut some slots down from the top of the pipe to an elevation below the problematic hole with a hacksaw blade or something small with a cutting wheel?

If you think an overflowing sewer cleanout next to your old porch is bad, wait until you have an overflowing sewer cleanout underneath your new porch.

hooah posted:Well, I learned a new word today. Neither Lowe's nor Home Depot's sites have anything that seem to be relevant. How would I attache the battens (slats?) to the tarp, and how would I secure the whole thing to the sandbox? I was picturing them just wedged inside the sandbox and bowed upwards. I guess tie the tarp down with a rope or something.

If you want to feel better about it you can take piece of 2x4 or something and tamp the dry cement powder into the hole a few inches at a time. Then you have a something with a strength and stiffness roughly the same as the surrounding soil, and when it eventually gets access to moisture it will hydrate and set up even stronger.

Could also build an arch that supports itself in compression. That’s how they did it before they had structural steel.

H110Hawk posted:An air filter won't save you. Yeah unless that dust spends time flying through the air in huge visible clouds then an air filter won't help much. The air filter is for if you live in a wildfire smoke zone, or maybe next to the freeway. The solution to OP's problem is to clean (vacuum, dust surfaces, wash linens) regularly.

If you are sure it is unfastened then maybe just flip it over and give it a good hard shake or tap. It should just fall out.
