    First Tattoo

    Finally got my first tattoo tonight. I came up with the general design in Photoshop and asked my artist to make it more artistic and battle worn. I chose "molon labe" not necessarily due to the gun meaning, but rather due to its historical significance as a sign of defiance in the face of...

    Any HVAC Guys? Help Needed.

    Ok, I'm at a loss on what to try next to fix my furnace. The basic issue is that the burners won't light. So far I have found that the biggest issue is that the gas valve (24v) is only getting ~20v and won't put enough gas out for the burners to ignite. I have 28v coming into the board (I...
