Solar Pump. What will happen in this case?
Elkski replied to MJCM's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
You need to install a sprinkler timer and some pressure switches . BIL can drink a beer and watch it finish watering. -
Why do some of you take the "3rd World" description of Thailand so personally? I say it's 3rd World in quite a few ways. To solve this unhealthy air problem will require. 2nd World trash collection be implemented. But many moo bans voted not to pay the cost. So they burn most everything including lots of plastic. They don't compost but burn all the vegetative liter. How else are the weeds along the canals and fields be cleared? They haven't made a law to stop the purchase of burned cane. That would be a simple step. Cambodia and surrounding countries are even poorer so I can't see this problem can be fixed in the next 50 years.

I don't have any ink. I did watch some ink shows on tv and katvondee work was amazing art. A gal like this is on my bucket list. A foreigner on Koh Phi Phi -
Bangkok’s air pollution causing grave concern in parts of the city
Elkski replied to snoop1130's topic in Bangkok News
I would be very disappointed if I came as a tourist into unhealthy air like this. -
I have both types of these drill bits and have used them both many times. In the USA that adjustable one comes with plastic dust collector bowls and we use them on soft drywall usually a I've the head. They work well if you have the 2 cutters adjusted at the same radius. I would not use that but to cut even soft wood but I never tried that with a 2 cutter large dia but. But I do have a smaller one that cuts up to 2" hole in wood and using a drill press is common sense. There is a quality difference and how long they will last and how good of a hole you can cut. I think perfect for soffit holes. I would put them every 50 cm or best to calculate the number needed for the volume of your attic. The small vents have a opening area specification. Need as much inlet area as exhaust. Hard to get to much in a warm climate.

Ex-girlfriend tries to steal 10 motorcycles
Elkski replied to Alexzweiner's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
I do think the title is incorrect. She owned them from day 1 and knew it. Correct me if I'm wrong but the safer way to do this is to start a company with 3 employees and put the cycles in the company name. -

I wish honest OP questions like this didn't get such ridiculous replies. I can see myself posting a question like this as I realized I may be in deep do do. -
Did rooster win?

So your saying Rooster posts for Thailand Ryan, brit tim, Beach lover and all the rest? Hmmm. This digital World is closing in on each one of us. If a kid has political aspirations he better be good since birth. No racial or sexual posts ever.

Lots of places where a trailer would be trapped in Thailand. Can you imagine the U-turns on the highways?

When does the burn ban start and end in Thailand?
Elkski replied to CALSinCM's topic in General Topics
When will a burn ban be enforced. Let's see. When people look earn to compost. When burned crops can't be bought from the processors. When mandatory trash services are required. -
I'm real. I don't live in Thailand but via my hunting trips and now marriage to an isaan woman I have connections to Thailand. May never live in Thailand but I'm keeping up to date on current news on USA, Thailand and the World. There are at least 30 real people here. Many who's words of wisdom get some cred from me.

PEA found out meter is spinning backward
Elkski replied to eddysacc's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Sad to hear this happened. -
Sounds like you have thought of many of the details. Geotextile on the driveway sloped surface is a great idea but it will need reinforced side walls to be effective. Nice CADD drawing of the rebar. As far as the hydrostatic pressure on a Wall and your wall is concerned. If the voids near the wall fill with water the pressure on the wall will move it!!!. It will be the same force as if it was a dam of a lake of water. No difference. Filling it with gravel and a drain pipe on the bottom would have been best. Just make sure water doesn't drain towards the wall. It must be very exciting.

I knew it was going to be to hard to leave all those gap holes unfilled but I'm imagining they will sink in 20% because no way were they compacted. Wasn't there a French drain line put in next to the wall? Will trucks be able to get up that entrance ramp after a rain? Surely you would have a plan for some retaining wall safety curb on that ramp area. How much rise vs run does it have? Don't want a truck slipping off into that fence and blocking all work.

Elkski replied to Scott's topic in World News
My 80+ USA mom hated the " Black lives matter" so much she ordered some "all lives matter" signs and gave some away. What a crazy World we live in.
