I guess if you're sinking fence post foundations out in the middle of nowhere, that's fine. Jobs that are larger and where quality matters, you might as well bring in a portable batch plant on a trailer.

If it's a small amount of concrete, find a way to pour it when the plant is open. If it's a large amount, it's worth it to pay extra to open the plant. A small amount of concrete out in the middle of nowhere, it's probably still cheaper to bring out a mixer loaded dry and a water truck to fill'er up on site.

I got one of those Purina breeze things with the pellet litter over a grate and a puppy pad underneath, and it is so, so much better than regular litter bullshit. It doesn't track at all I just have one medium sized cat though, seems like it would not work with more cats

Shaman Tank Spec posted:I also managed to do the same. Some years ago I bought some fancy crystalline litter that was advertised as not needing any cleaning beyond picking out the poops, and it was supposed to last one month for one cat. Well it super wasn't because two weeks in I discovered under the crystals a thick layer of pee slurry, which I naively tried to wash off with some bleach. I realized quickly what was going on when breathing became difficult and carried the chlorine gas dispenser to the balcony and let it completely air out there. Yeah you're supposed to give it a good stir once or twice a day to avoid that.

Really just looking to align my brain to the overall control scheme before a possible weekend warrior rental. Doesn’t need to be super in depth, just enough to build some of those motor skill pathways ahead of time.

All of my jobs require documentation, testing and QC and I'd be too scared to bet my paycheck on the contraptions doing what they're supposed to do when they're supposed to do it. I'd rather figure the plant overtime fee into the material pricing & have my rear end covered, the risk there is not getting the work, but some jobs you're better off not winning.

They are for the complete opposite of super-critical projects requiring any substantial amount of concrete such as the small jobs in that video

zedprime posted:They're gram negative bacteria and it's soap. Gram-negative are generally resistant to detergent mitigated by the fact that soap and detergent is to wash away high surface area contaminated soils and residues. It's still best practice to dose liquid and soft soaps with preservatives to avoid random on going colonization by something environmentally endemic to the home like pseudomonas. Fabuloso is awesome for all non porous surfaces but I just can't bring myself to mop with it because the scent of Murphy's Oil Soap is baked far too deeply into my soul

Soapy water is the correct choice for almost any cleaning. Soap takes care of oils, water takes care of everything else. Alcohol helps with some things, but not if you're trying to get sober. Use toothpaste to clean your teeth though. Don't make my mistake.

down1nit posted:Soapy water is the correct choice for almost any cleaning. Soap takes care of oils, water takes care of everything else. Alcohol helps with some things, but not if you're trying to get sober. From a commercial perspective it's a two-stage process. First you clean with hot water and detergent, then you sanitise with a bleach or quaternary-ammonium-compound. It is useless to do the second until you've done the first. OH&S tax: for internal cleaning of pipes and systems ("Clean In Place") a strong alkali is often used. This is frowned upon for cleaning exposed surfaces because spraying strong alkali around will dissolve your workers too. The Lone Badger fucked around with this message at 07:19 on Jul 7, 2023 |

The two-stick method is very safe. If one stick breaks the other stick will hold it in place and allow the worker time to evacuate
