    What keeps these from coming unplugged?

    Think twist-lock.

    How to clean a keg after plasma cutting?

    I don’t know if it will work for you, I’d try Barkeepers Friend. That stuff is a great cleaner for things like that.

    Seeking Advice on Which Smoker to Get - Newby

    I have to second the earlier comments about the Pit Barrel Cooker, I finally bought one last year to be able to cook more than one rack of ribs. For those times my Webber kettle just wasn't big enough. I can get 8 full racks in the PBC if I ever need to... I'm very happy with the results I get...

    Mills

    Crankandstein 3D mill powered via a Shopsmith 510, using a pulley arrangement calculated to turn it at 100-120 rpm. (I can increase the speed if needed, but I never have) The mill is rugged and easy to adjust, the Shopsmith easily keeps it running smoothly. I have run around 400 pounds through...

    Blue Moon Clone

    I always use the original recipe. The only tip I have for you is to prepare yourself to drink excellent beer, this keg always disappears too fast!

    Has anyone seen this style of lid?

    That is a GREAT idea! I would never thought of that.

    Using all RO water?

    I've been looking at bottled drinking water at Sam's Club, the label says it's RO with minerals added for taste. It is good drinking water and I've been considering using it as a base in brewing water, anyone doing this?

    Fridge course adjustment screw

    But if the oil migrates into the dryer and the cap tube, that will take the unit down because it clogs the cap tube and the refrigerant can't get through. I'm with you betting this unit was near DOA anyway, it was pretty old.

    Fridge course adjustment screw

    Laying a refrigerator over is never a good idea, upside down is a real No-No. That frost pattern on the evaporator is a dead giveaway, time for a new fridge.

    Fridge course adjustment screw

    You might as well try it and see. Those cold controls generally don't get adjusted like you're trying, since you've already turned it one way it can't hurt anything to turn it the other way. I'm an appliance tech with 17 years of experience, if the unit won't go below 47° you probably have...

    Need help with exhaust system dripping

    Hmmm, not really sure. You might have to try several configurations to get something that works well. If it was me... I would eliminate the flex vent, replace it with rigid vent sloping down from the fan. Drill a hole in the low point and provide some kind of a drain hose to get rid of the...

    Need help with exhaust system dripping

    If you can get all the joints sealed it will stop the dripping, but not the condensation. The condensation will still be there, just not able to get out. I would attempt to provide a place for the condensation to drain out so it doesn't buildup and damage your blower. I've seen that happen in...
