Guest, it's time once again for the massively important and exciting FoH Asshat Tournament!
Go here and give us your nominations!Who's been the biggest Asshat in the last year? Give us your worst ones!
Yes x100. I always use a recycling blade. Better for the lawn and no clippings to bag.
I've never used a mulching blade. I just take the guard off and then the grass doesn't pile up. I'll post a picture for you at lunch.

When I was six years old I went to a senior level college class and did all the hardest math problems and told the professor he was wrong.

I don't know about a special blade. On my mower, to mulch, you just close the entrance to where the bag would have been attached. I imagine that means the grass stays in the mower longer, and hence gets mulched.

Yeah, he's right. It will just cut and force the clippings down onto the lawn without the mulching blade.

Installing RO system
This flexible white hose come from dishwasher, I guess they call it drain hose, can I do this???
Or would that kink up shit, and just leave it as a big loop?
RO tank barely fit behind the drain, had to remove it, and there is like a 1cm gap.
Also garbage disposal looks huge!

Dishwasher hoses are supposed to loop up to prevent backflow I think. The may already have it doing that on the unit but I doubt it'll hurt anything to have it up again under the cab. You'll figure out pretty quick if it won't work because your diswasher won't drain, i doubt it'll cause a catastrophe.

Yeah, make sure your drain hose hangs higher than the point it goes into the disposal, to prevent backflow and smelly odors. You can get a small hook or loop to hang it on.
oh ok, so i want to make an upside down trap? cool.

Higher than that? I just noticed I can go up between my divided sink, otherwise, sink depth is really low and that flex tube is already hitting the bottom of it.

Anyone know of anything inexpensive that dampens sound but is rated for outdoor exposure? I'm thinking something like those eggcrate foam panels they have in studios but outside. I want to put a panel up around my pool pump but unfortunately where it's located I can't really fit any of the prefab structures or thick plastic Rubbermaid looking ones around it so have to build my own.
It's not really that noisy as it's brand new, but the frequency it puts out is detectable at night through the walls of the house. It's more one of those obnoxious white noise things.

That might work actually, I could probably shove cheap eggcrate foam inside and replace it every year or something.
Thanks I was going to overengineer this instead.
