what did you do around the house today?

Usually gazebos are to keep you drying the rain, but his looks the opposite.

Decided to jump on the gazebo train

Built the same one on Friday. Took me and a friend 5.5 hours.

Finished my “hedge”. Poor boy irrigation to keep it growing like the weed it is this summer.

I solo'd most of it, and I think it took me around 6 hours all in? Not including hand bombing all the stuff from the truck to the back yard, and unpacking it.

Anyone know what the thread and pitch is of a typical garden bib/faucet?

Previous owners had quick connectors on there, I tried to remove and they cross threaded it. The threads are fucked now and leak like crazy when I try to attach the house.

Hoping I can just re-tap the faucet instead of replacing the whole thing but have no idea what size I need.

I didn’t know these existed, I’ll let you continue the search. This page has the most common size which is 11.5 TPI and some diameter I don’t remember.

It'll probably be easier to replace the faucet. They're like $9 and it takes <2min. I just did one a couple weeks ago on my house.

Thanks guys.

How do you figure? Is the other end of yours exposed fully?

I had to replace both of mine this year but since it was behind drywall and I don’t have Pex crimpers nor copper soldering stuff, I had a plumber do mine.

But either way +1 for replacing the whole thing. They do eventually fail and you may end up with with a nice surprise of water leaking from your basement ceiling when you turn your faucet on for the spring season. Ask me how I know…..

You solo'd a gazebo? Crayyyy but that gives me confidence in doing it solo too now. If I can get a fridge off a truck and into the house solo, I think I can do a gazebo

I needed my wife for a few small things. Getting the supports up between the posts was the big one, otherwise it was mostly ladder holding. I even did the top roof part solo which the instructions were like "you might need 3 people for this".

Dishwasher had 01 error code indicating potential leak. Turned off water, turned off electricity, pulled it out, inspected it, saw nothing, so I pushed it back in, turned on the water and electricity, and ran it. No errors or evidence of leakage.

I gotta replace the shock absorbers on my... washing machine. Hopefully my decision to buy the OEM ones pays off, because they were double the cost of what you can get on Amazon.

1 layer of EZ Seed, 2 bags of sheep manure and a random bag of mixed grass seed. Been just over a week but getting some baby grass showing up. And people doubted me.

Reliable parts pisses me off with the restock fee. So I'm pulling the dryer apart for the 3rd time to finally do the bearing after the belt and the felt guides didn't silence the squeaks 100%.

Let me over buy and return as needed for free.

I have over bought and returned and didn't get charged restocking fees.

Scrubbed the floor out in the garage last weekend. Was a lot dirtier than it seemed.
