How does that product compare with the sackrete version of hydraulic cement? Not cement at all. It is two epoxies. First you glue little tube fittings to the wall at 1' intervals. Then, you glue up the crack with the hard, grey epoxy, and let it set for a day. Then, you mix up this thin, liquid stuff that turns into a rubbery filler, and inject into the fittings. I did not do a great job of the gluing of the fittings, and had leaks there. I did my best to hold back the leaks and get the stuff into the crack. Comes in a 10 lb yellow tub, dry, and I paid a tenner for a plastic tub of it today. But its too wet to use it now. The whole deal with this LCR, I think, it that it cures into a rubbery material. This allows the cracked wall to flex somewhat with wet-dry cycles without breaking the seal.

The folks who plumbed the sewer were an abject failure at the plumbing rule #2 that says shit runs downhill so they dumped the commode into the main run under the basement floor where the solids settled out, blocking the sewer for the rest of the house repeatedly. So I disconnected the bathtub from dropping into that standpipe, and took it 25 feet to the beginning of the run and Y'd it into the newly city mandated cleanout port on an outside wall so that everytime we took a shower, some of those solids would be flushed on thru the system, aided by the flow from the laundry tube and washing machine. Haven't had to call the city and have them blow it out since, so the port they mandated I retrofit has never been used for the intended purpose Sometimes you have to be smarter than the average plumber employed by a subdivision builder.

The fix was to move - giving the buyer full disclosure in writing. I was amazed somebody was willing to buy the place, but I wanted to be RID of the place. The new place (we've been here 26 years on May 1st) has really good concrete, but there was a crack on one of the long walls. It must have gotten wide enough at the top to tear the waterproofing and let water into the crack. The LCR stuff fixed it the first time. How does that product compare with the sackrete version of hydraulic cement? Comes in a 10 lb yellow tub, dry, and I paid a tenner for a plastic tub of it today. But its too wet to use it now. But, it is for fairly narrow cracks. For big holes and whatnot, you might fashion plugs and then seal them with PC-7 epoxy in the red and black metal cans. Relatively inexpensive bulk epoxy, and I think if installed when the wall is dry, it will hold water after curing. Probably until the wooden plug inside the epoxy goes away. ;-) Epoxy, in the long term, does allow the surface to breath and absorb moisture. Needs a good layer of 4lb cut shellac under it for really long term exposure like a boat hull. Where long term is 30 years. Thanks Jon.

So I go out to the shop, grab 4 feet of old broom handle chuck it up and make kit about 8 or 9 long. Then with a cutoff tool still mounted I figure I can write a routine to cut a taper suitable for driving in to the hole with said 4lb maul. But nothing I have done can get rid of a bad character y used in line 12. So here it is, my head and eyes are apparently incapable of seeing the error if indeed there is one. % #_startz= 81.0 #_endz = 60.0 #_tmp = 0.00 #_starty= 29.0 s900 m3 g4p0.5 (one half sec for spindle rpms) o10 while [#_tmp le 9.000] g0 z#_startz g0 y[#_starty + #_tmp] g1 F75 z#_endz y[[#_starty - #_tmp] + 4.] #_tmp = [#_tmp + 0.5] o10 endwhile m5 m2 % Which ought to carve a taper on the end of the broom handle, 4mm bigger at the leftmost Z point than at the right most z point. My error, or LinuxCNC's? In the meantime I am taking in 2 or 3 gallons a minute thru the hole.

Normally this means that the G-code is using an axis letter that the config does not support. If this is lathe G-code it would normally use X and Z not Y and Z. But I seem to recall that for some reason you are using Y ad Z, but perhaps not in this config? Nah, Andy, I saw the error of my ways a couple or 3 years ago on that point. But this morning, short term memory was occupied listening to all the muscle complaints as I'd overworked my leg muscles already digging in a sump pump pit and they were screaming burning. I had pulled about 7 gallons of mud/yellow clay gumbo out of a hole flooded with muddy water, so I was working by feel alone to dig. Probably 20 gallons to go before the plastic tub for the pump to stand it will fit. The pump in the meantime is hanging in a clothesline wire noose that lets it touch the bottom of the hole but holds it close enough to vertical for a drunk. 10 or 15 degrees of lean from plumb is just fine for that. Diabetics can easily use up all the fuel in a muscle, fuel that properly functioning insulin feeds them quickly in normal folks, is several hours, some times the next day getting replenished for the diabetic even if the glucose is north of 200, the conversion chemistry just is not there. But its something I have been living with for 30-35 years and I still have both feet, unusual in itself. I must be doing something right, not that I am complaining mind you. ;-) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

We have had several major downpours since I made the fix, and it has held. Jon My major problem is a plug one, 2 more open next time we get a gully washer. The basement walls, while made of 12 blocks, are I believe what is called a hatite block in some locales. The outer surface was given a quite visible layer of waterproofing tar, but I've not a clue if it was applied all the way down the outside of the footings in '74 when the place was built. I any event, hatite is quite famous for being able to pee on one side of it, and by the time you can zip up and walk to the other side, the other side WILL be wet. Shifting ground with the seasons, and on a front wall where we had planted some Burning Bush that would, if not trimmed to about 6 feet annually by moi, be 12 feet or more high by now, and I suspect its roots, only 20 or so from the wall are the reason the wall is bowed in about 3/4 with a nice crack about 1/8 wide that on the outside would be about 30 down. We are aiming to get rid of them, and given what I know now, I doubt if we'll replace them on our watch. Similar crack, but 2 feet lower on the back wall. But there, the BoxWood is around 11 feet away, with the intervening area being covered with a very poorly built back deck so there isn't a lot of vegetation there for most of that run of decking. However, I am not planning on spending the 40 large it would take to pick the house up and set it aside while all that is knocked out and rebuilt a foot higher just so we actually had room for a pool cue in the basement where the regulation sized pool table has fallen into disuse. To recast the walls in 5000lb mix 16 thick would sure be nice, it would be truly a fortress, but it will outlast us easily regardless.

Yes, my previous place had some kind of clay tile blocks for the foundation, built in the 1930's, apparently. We'd get fountains of water pouring in from several places, about 2-3 feet above the floor, running about as hard as a garden hose, when we had a strong downpour. The fix was to move - giving the buyer full disclosure in writing. I was amazed somebody was willing to buy the place, but I wanted to be RID of the place. The new place (we've been here 26 years on May 1st) has really good concrete, but there was a crack on one of the long walls. It must have gotten wide enough at the top to tear the waterproofing and let water into the crack. The LCR stuff fixed it the first time. But, it is for fairly narrow cracks. For big holes and whatnot, you might fashion plugs and then seal them with PC-7 epoxy in the red and black metal cans. Relatively inexpensive bulk epoxy, and I think if installed when the wall is dry, it will hold water after curing.
