Yla's wife is one of my favorite people and I've never met her

Ugh had to buy a new range.  I'm excited about getting an induction one though

We just yanked the old school propane range out of our kitchen in MN and put a dish washer in its spot. Going to use a fancy counter top convection oven air fryer thing and a hot plate instead of the range. Good trade IMO.

Clams— dishwasher question. If the dishwasher is leaking water can I fix it or do I need to call a guy out? Call an appliance guy?

my dishwasher had an error due to a leak.  2 weeks later and 3 motors replaced and she's purring like a kitten again.

i had one of these pups die on me a few weeks ago

https://www.nfm.com/ge-profile-1-7-cu-ft-convection-built-in-microwave-oven-in-stainless-49745086/49745086.html

it was a pretty slick unit, a microwave oven and a regular oven combined, built in right above my regular convection oven thing.  all-in-one is the term.

the son of a bitch was 14 years old!  it died!

nfm had the updated model in stock so I bought the son of a bitch!  had her delivered two days later!  mrs clams said hey slow down there, bob villa- we gotta pay someone to install this son of a bitch!  good grief, you boys should have seen the look on her face when she watched me slide the son of a bitch into the built-in cabinet and plug it in!

hold up!  about 3/4 inch before I had the son of a bitch slide in flush, I couldn’t push it in anymore!  they added a 2” wide by half inch deep notch at the very end.  I buzzed right over to “ace” hardware and bought a file, went on home, and got to filing that cabinet to accommodate the new notch so my new unit would fit flush.  was filing that wood the best way? idk, it was about 25 minutes of hard core filing.  who knows nowadays.

this concludes tonight’s monday night convection-microwave oven appliance chat

Son of a bitch! Did you wind up getting that in flush, Bob?

you know it!

clams you ol' so-n-so! I will say though, its nice to see the youth these days actually doing something instead of just staring at their phone and calling an uber to fix their dang appliances! We call that usin' a little elbow grease, me boy.

Clams has a LOT of know-how.

[Pete]

You know that scene in Apollo 13 where they go into the room with a bucket of parts and say “invent something to save astronauts?”  Clams would have really thrived in that environment, engineering degree or not.

[pissclams]

either you apply the appliance or the appliance applies you.  some words of wisdom to my fellow appliance heads out there.

[CHONGS]

Well they mumped up and tried to deliver the wrong range and oven to me.  So now I have to cook without one for two weeks while they secure the thing I actually ordered ...

Sounds like the appliance applied YOU

Would 'clams even fit in that room? Not that it would matter because he would have saved Tom Hanks no matter what it took.

Your guess is as good as mine

If clams wants to go to the Moon he just needs to stand on his tippy toes

Guys, my new oven has a middle griddle top burner

I assume you've completed your move, then?

Got my keys today, movers are getting here at 8AM to move all my crap

Moving sucks balls. Thankfully you've outsourced the worst parts. But it can still suck. I wish you the best!

It sure does. Yeah movers and next time getting pak'ers too. Thanks bud!

I once had a mover slice his finger on (I assume) an upholstery staple on the bottom of my couch. He tried to hide that it happened, but it's kinda hard to hide a bunch of blood on a beige fabric sofa. I just let it slide, though.
