The darn trusses didn’t leave any room for storage in the attic. The owner wasn’t an engineer, but he did stay at a Holiday Inn Express once, so he made room.

A few days ago I was standing under this fan. The wobble was crazy The sad part is that the tennant actually uses this fan.

Nothing wrong with #1 if you drive a motorcycle.
Nice work Marcel.
I like them all. Well except for #1.:wink:

3

What am I missing in #3 other than no high loop?

4

I was at a house yesterday, never seen a bottle/retrofit for a shower head.

That’s funny. Tim you should resubmit that one for the next June Nominations. :slight_smile:

6

a lot of good pictures in this batch…

7

That there is Jim, hope more cast their vote. :slight_smile:

8

I THINK I HAVE IT.
THE RUBBERISED MOUNT FOR THE WASTE AND COPPER PIPING FOR THE DISCHARGE ARE WRONG.
I see a plastic 90% elbow and plastic flexible line much like a dishwasher exit being used in a photo on the net.
I did my first grinder today.
I was coming back to look at the thread.

9

We have a tie, let us break it by voting. :slight_smile:

10

I still see nothing wrong with 13 but 3 just the same. They have to be motor cycle owners;-)
Nothing wrong with 2 winners is there?:cool:

11

Anymore interested in voting for the best picture.:slight_smile:

12

Next week we will choose a winner from the two Polls, so put in your vote for this one. :slight_smile:

13

A suggestion Marcel.
Maybe not as many fine examples of defects next time.
Its hard to choose when several are so closely mirrored to one another.
Say a poll on electrical. Everyone send in their defects on panels, breakers, wiring, etc and the poll beings.
Just an idea.
Thanks Marcel that was loads of education for all INACHI members.
You are always a winner at INACHI Marcel.:slight_smile:

14

Members are always free to post the defects they want.
A variety is always good. :slight_smile:
