Breaker finder worked great. The auto calibration is neat. My wife was impressed that such a thing exists and glad she no longer needs to perform her wifely duties wrt hanging out waiting to tell me I've flipped off the right breaker.

I thought a breaker finder was just a boombox plugged in to whichever outlet you were trying to isolate until you stopped hearing limp bizkit blaring through the halls of the house ? :v:

Yeah, but then those damned kids ruined everything with their Bluetooth speakers that run off batteries. Bring back stereo sound!:okboomer:

Sharing a set of steps in my neighbourhood. They've done some improvements to this set in the past week, they've painted the pallets black and also enclosed one side with plywood, indicating that this is a permanent installation.

How does someone use those stairs and not fall down them?

Other then just slide down on your rear end? Maybe I am just figuring my uncoordinated self would need 10 minutes and complete concentration to get up those stairs to not catch my size 14 feet on the steps and break something falling down.

If you live in a country, where stair threads are standardized, you sort of get used to them, and just cruise along. But if you're living in the libertarian paradise like Russia, Somalia or China, where people just build whatever the gently caress, you adapt. You intuitively learn to pay attention every time you traverse a new stairwell, and then suffer accordingly.



That photo is taken in North America, and it's a full height basement. And I think those stringers would definitely work, if they were to be turned 90°

Yes, I know I'm old, get off my fucking lawn so I can yell at these clouds.


All the safety of pull-down attic stairs and all of the convenience of normal, fixed stairs.

edit: also check out the rail and how much engagement there is between it and the wooden post nominally holding it near the bottom step.

My favorite part is the railing just kinda resting on the corner of the post. Hope you don't need it!

Lacking suitable geography, they need this to add the delightful frisson of danger of falling down a cliff to their lives.

They have a small hill on the border with Belgium & Germany, which I'm guessing they consider a mountain?
