Rant: The local HVAC people suck.....

Stig, Sorry to be helpful and then harsh, but, if you think it is so easy it would be done by now! I originally told you what the problem was, now you know but you are complaining that someone wants too much to replace it. I agree, $600 is a little steep for this job, but I am probably not...

HVAC folks - is this noise normal?

Gas heating, that would most likely be the inducer motor that kicks in first before the gas fires or the blower motor kicks in. It's the blower that pushes the exhaust out of the unit. Could be that the motor is starting to go bad. They tend to get louder before they die. I would have...

Central Air Conditioner Issue

Anyone built an arcade cabinet before? (for MAME)

I actually have converted an old cabinet for use with Mame. Biggest advantage to this, I believe is the actual arcade monitor and not have to build a cabinet from scratch. Not to mention artwork already on the cabinet. I picked one up in my area from a guy on Ebay for $300. One suggestion...

How much to tip furniture delivery men.
