Don't hate, congratulate

Atleast most in this thread know what gender they are. We can agree on that

Something is wrong with the sky down here, I think it broke. It got mostly white, lights started flashing, lots of rumbling, then a bunch of water fell out.

Pfft, thats cheap.
I bought two 8' sections of 6' dogear picket privacy fence last week.
Almost 75 bucks each.
Last time I bought any was 2 years ago.
They were 45 bucks each.

Enjoy that. It probably wont happen much more til winter comes back around.

I dunno if it was dear or cheap Brent.
It was necessary.

Can only get the drywall Gib from merchants if you have a trade account, which luckily I have access to or it'd be July before a Maybe. Shortages...

Long run galvanized steel roofing is most popular here, corrugated or other profiles.
No OSB or ply layer so probably a cheap option, not a US four seasons one.

FFS does no one make a good old fashioned battery charger these days?

I went to 4 auto parts stores today, and 3 hardware stores looking for a new battery charger, all of them are automatic chargers, microprocessor detects what mode to charge in, how many volts to apply, etc, bought one a month ago and really disliked it, it was always kicking in and out automatically, so I returned it.

Does anyone make a old fashioned charger, with a switch so I can control what mode it is in, any how many volts to give out??

Liked for sympathy.
We went with metal years ago. Cheapo shingles failed in less than 15 years.
Might not be the cheaper option now. I'm afraid to price metal for any of the projects we want to do. Was .88 USD a foot two years ago for 36"Galvalume.
I'm sure thats doubled.

Just depends on which one of those Hispanic chirrens is playing around here. El Nino or la Nina.
Sometimes we go 6 weeks with nothing more than an occasional heavy dew.
I know you can have it worse than that at times.

Do you fellas have a NAPA there?
They may have some good quality chargers.
Theres a Viking(or maybe Central tool ot some Chinese name) brand at Horrible freight that might be worth a try. Looked like the old analog chargers I used to buy.
Still have an old 6 amp dual voltage(6 or 12) that I use. Been through a couple of the computerised ones.

Yes, went to a napa today, they only had the auto ones, guy said they usually have a 6v & 12v manual one but it is not in stock and he was not sure when they might get another one.

6 weeks? 6 months…or a year. 3” of rain a year.

You will probably have to step up to a 6,12,24VDC roll around charger. They still have the heavy duty transformers. But expect to pay for that.
