Very first question : What kind of copper ? Soft 'refrigeration' copper tubing is not suitable, it will work harden under repeated pressure cycles and vibration and eventually crack. It's also not r

<snip> Makes sense to me. They used to sell ceramic 'chiclets' to clean coffee pots the same way. Probably best to be a bit bigger than ordinary sand, so there's more force when you swirl it around

What they have varies store-by-store and from time to time. Last time I wanted safety wire, the nearest store only had 0.41" Seems to work fine, tho. Randall

There are almost always restrictions of some sort, particularly easements. It's wise to look into them yourself when buying, since for some reason, real estate agents are not required to do so. Fello

Sounds like grounds for a lawsuit. Perhaps not one you're likely to win, but what you have just described is a "taking" and I believe you're entitled to be compensated for it. Granted California is

Most small gen sets have the frequency determined by the engine rpm. Don't expect it to be right on the money, +/- 5% is a common spec and many small units are only good to +/- 10%. Get it running j

They aren't, not by a long shot. However, past a certain weight, 5th wheel is the only practical way to attach a trailer. So the 5th wheels tend to be the upper end of the travel trailer spectrum, s
