  1. Off topic and dirty laundry

    Did I miss something?
  2. Cracks me up the way hr defends himself in the video comments.
  3. Artillery Fungus Removal

    In my opinion the best thing you can do is educate the customer and strongly suggest they get rid of the mulch.
  4. Post a message when you are done trying it for the first time. We won't say "I told ya so" but we did tell you. :)
  5. Need Advice

    Stay away from the Fat Boy for spraying the nasty stuff. At 7 gpm you'll have it going all over the place. If you try to restrict the flow you'll burn out the pump.
  6. That's cedar I decided to go with about 20 years ago when I built the house. The last time it was stained was about four or five years ago.
  7. I've spotted them at Home Depot in the past. I normally wouldn't recommend buying equipment there but if you need it ...
  8. Musical terrorism

    I feel ya brother. Wife loves that show American idol and plays that awful music.
  9. Thanks Doug Rucker

    Can't we all just get ... Ah forget it.
  10. Who Besides Joe Walters

    So that's what Joe looks like.
  11. . The magic number 3600 rpm is needed for the correct hertz (60) cycles a second on a 2 pole ac generator. 3600 rpM / 60 (60 seconds in a minute) gives you 60 rpS, hence 60 hertz.
  12. Bt200 works great but it's the least of your problems at this point. Your main concern is the sand between the pavers. A rotary tip will blast the sand all over. A surface cleaner will do the same. There is a type of sand that hardens like concrete between the pavers, I believe this is what you want. Maybe you could go to a mason store and ask them.
  13. Keep on mind that F13 will burn the plants and bushes which are always located directly under the gutters. After mixing the f13 in your pump sprayer and coat the gutters, the chemicals (mostly potassium I think) will drip and burn the plants below.
  14. I think most everyone around here uses F-13 from Bob. I've been at this for 20 years and have not seen anything better. In fact I just got 5 gallons today. About 85 bucks with shipping.
  15. Problems while Pressure Washing

    I do the same with those large bowling ball type nests. I pull straight 15 percent SH to the XJet to solve that problem.
  16. Problems while Pressure Washing

    I don't mind the snakes much either, it's the giant spiders and underground wasp nests that get me running and screaming like a little girl. Actually my concern was for the snake when I start cleaning the house. I'll work around him somehow. If it was spiders or wasps it would be a different story.
  17. Problems while Pressure Washing

    Hmm, I don't know. It must be something to do with using the iPhone rather than the regular computer.
  18. Problems while Pressure Washing

    Nothing I couldn't fix on site for the most part. Bidding a residential yesterday and after we signed the papers he tolde to watch out for a large snake that lives in the bushes. If I don't make any posts by next week you'll know it was a problem. - - - Updated - - - Nothing I couldn't fix on site for the most part.

  19. Hello from eastern Europe.

    I'm out here in Sofia, Bulgaria again visiting my wife's family. This is where I first met her many years ago and soon we'll have our 13th wedding anniversary. Tomorrow we drive down south to Plovdiv to see her uncle and aunt. Greece is only a few hours south so we plan on visiting friends that have a beach house there. Polina is out right now at the government offices doing paperwork so our son will have duel citizenship. We'll see how that goes, shouldnt be any problem. I'll try to upload some pictures from this iPhone later but I don't know if that works.
  20. Hello from eastern Europe.

    Upon arrival in the USA and standing in the customs line at Boston I hear a voice that's familiar. I look behind me and see my sister. She has just got back from a business meeting in Paris. How impossible is that? The only thing weirder is I actually got to clean my own house this morning (actually just coat it in precarb... cedar siding). Tired of the wife telling me that I have time to do everyone else's house except our own.
  21. This 20 hp Honda with a ts2021 that needs a little tlc on eBay. Item #: 110909202651 I've sent emails to him asking questions but I haven't had a response yet. Might be because my mail is from east Europe at this moment and he thinks its spam. Anyways, what do you think?
  22. I drove out there to look at it and he had the issues repaired. Runs great. I asked him to make an offer that I can't refuse so he sold me the machine, an almost new Hydrotek 6 shooter, 100 feet of new pw hose, 200 feet of jetter hose, a deckster and a hurricane brush for 1300 dollars. Anyone need jetter hose? I felt it was a good deal and everything went well until that skunk sprayed me in the face while I was vomiting.
