Dig it out, or use any sort of HighLift jack / machine capable of lifting upwards to pull the post out.

Lord of Garbagemen posted:I tried the digging approach on 30 ft of fencing and it took far to long with my soil type and the 3 foot hole they were in. I have another 50 posts i have to pull and would like to get it down to like 30 minutes to pull and auger a new hole, so hand digging will be a last resort. I am going to try the double car jack method this weekend on a test post and see how it works. Will report back with results. You're gonna need a jack like this: http://www.harborfreight.com/42-inch-3-1-2-half-ton-farm-jack-6530.html and a length of chain. Whatever jack you have in your car probably won't cut it.

beep-beep car is go posted:I've got a weird one. Adding those extra valves and pipes didn't cost all that much, and the manifold is ready if you wanted to split one of your zones into two or add another expansion onto the house. I betcha the contractor talked 'em into it.

Mexican Radio posted:I have a hallway closet that I'd like to replace with built-in drawers. Are there prefab units for this? I've googled on it but what I come up with are mostly closet organization systems, where what I'm imagining is a pre-built system of drawers that I can install in the rough opening of the ex-closet and put trim around. I pondered this for a minute. Could you measure the width of your opening and go to IKEA and find the organizer / bookshelf / chest of drawers that fits inside, and trim around it yourself?

VERTiG0 posted:It is super weird to me as a Canadian that so many Americans just wear their shoes in the house. I have never understood that. In the northern part of the country where it snows and you get a lot of mud, it's common to have a mudroom or at least some dedicated shoe place by the door, which is a convenient place to take off your shoes. In the south, you don't get as much mud, so you either take off your shoes in the garage (imperfect solution at best) or wear them in the house. Even in the south, I'd say that half of families are no-shoes-in-the-house families. Basically, it's none of your business what other people do in their own homes.

I helped my friend empty her grandparent's central vacuum system once. It wasn't as unpleasant as you might imagine. We also had a gigantic central vacuum system in the wood shop in high school. I'd absolutely install one in a workshop in the future, and I'd be tempted to extend it to the kitchen / other rooms where you sweep a lot, because gently caress dust pans.
