    I have a Westinghouse WGen series generator. I to had the carbon monoxide sensor from hell problem. This solution worked for me. Just unplug from c/o sensor module and short the green and blue wires on the wire harness connector and you are done. BTW Westinghouse.... This is a completely unusable design! Your generators won't even run in free open air.

      When I watched other videos and looked at other diagrams the yellow, white, and red wires were consistently used for other things. it was the other colors that varied per model. I think the pin locations varied as well so it was just locating the correct colors and then trial and error.

    • @JacksHomeProjects
      @JacksHomeProjects Рік тому

      Yes you could use pressure treated lumber. Usually that’s the more expensive route. Also, lumber is usually smaller so it would probably need more support than what I used for this.

    Jacks's Home Projects, I used your interlocking railroad tie process to construct my railroad tie backstop. I couldn't get any granite sand therefore all I could get was clay-sand. It's a lot more dense and wet compared to regular sand but that's all I could get around here. I paid $200 for 13 tons of the clay-sand. I used some to fill extra safety barrels I placed alongside my backstop. I'll show that in Part 4 of the build. Thanks again for responding to my comments about how your layout design was cnfigured. It worked out well, It was quite a bit of work from start to finish. As mentioned, I still have some safety features to finish off my backstop. It's only my DIY version. I was able to stack 12 railroad ties high and the interlocking rebar stakes kept everything quite table. One fella commented that he too was constructing a RR tie backstop but his walls caved in. I don't think he made a level foundation prior to stacking and staking the layers. Alright, Jack, I'll soon be able to throw some lead down range thanks to your design. Have a fine week.

    How many tons of sand did you buy and think you had leftover? I calculated for a 9 x 9 x 4.5 (9x6") square it is 18cubic yards. Then I cut that in half to make the triangle from back full to front for 9 cubic yards. I know it is slightly less than this, but that is the approximate. Then I believe it is .75 cubic yards per ton, making it about 12 yards.

  • @houndsmanone4563
    @houndsmanone4563 2 роки тому

    Jacks Home Projects, I think I watched your video atleast six times to see how you staggered the RRT's to get interlocking ends on the sides and rear walls. I can see how they're overlapped and interlocked on one side of the box and one side of the rear wall at 0:45. I read your response to Mike Clark (below) in which you explain how "every other RRT" in the back wall is cut short to fit between the two side walls (one of which gets overlapped by alternating side corners). Thanks for the great design. My RRTs are smaller (8.5 ft x 8 in x 6 in). Therefore, my backstop box will be 8.5 feet wide vice 9 feet. I'm in the eary stages of building a backstop now (using your interlocking design). BTW, how many chainsaw and circular saw blades did you wear out? How did you lift to stack your RRTs? Did you call in reinforcements to help you lift and adjust those heavy-azz RRTs? Have a fine week. Don 👍🏽🤠

    • @JacksHomeProjects
      @JacksHomeProjects 2 роки тому

      So my ties are about 9’ so thats the width of the backstop. The first layer I put both side ties all the way to the back and cut the back piece to fit between them. Then the 2nd layer I have a full length tie across the whole backside and then just slid the side pieces forward instead of cutting them. You can see from the front that the second layer on both sides stick out in the front. I didn’t damage or have any excessive wear on my saw blade or chain. I lifted them by myself. I drug them over to the wall and then lifted one end and rested it against the wall and then picked up the other side.
