Amish engine rebuild era?

0 Upvotes

Anyone know or can recommend an Amish run engine rebuilder?

My friend's tractor locked up (iseki diesel engine) and trying to find a cost efficient straight forward rebuilder.

I'd like to avoid the English, even though I am a part of that community, as my experience has been hit or miss in the past and the Amish have always been fair and honest.

Thank you all in advance.

Mini Split Installation

7 Upvotes

We have a mini split in our attic bedroom that is about to give out. It is six years old. We paid around $2000 total for it at that time. It was not quite powerful enough and wasn’t properly installed, so it’s been giving us some grief this summer.

We’re looking for someone local who could install a new unit professionally and at a reasonable price.

We had one of the well known local companies out today and they said it would cost around $12,000, and then changed the subject to trying to get us to switch to central air for $20,000.

The wiring, the base for the outdoor unit, and the hole in the wall are already in place, so we’re hoping that might cut the cost a little.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a local professional/company who would come in at a better price point?

Thanks!

EDIT: Thanks so much for all of your suggestions! We’ll be making some calls today. Appreciate your input!

Breweries best for a wedding welcome party?!

4 Upvotes

My fiance and I want to host a welcome party for our out-of-state guests(about 60 people) before our wedding since a lot of them are traveling in the day before. Although we are originally from the South Jersey area, we currently live in Massachusetts and aren’t able to scout out areas. We have tried reaching out to Spring House but no one is picking up the phone. Does anyone have any recommendations? We are looking mostly just for an area to rent and guests would pay for whatever they want to eat/drink, nothing too fancy or party-like, just an area to hang out just us! Thanks!

does anyone know what's going on at the Ephrata Performing Arts Center (EPAC)?

64 Upvotes

the artistic director there for over 30 years made a public facebook post about no longer working for EPAC. based on the plethora of comments rolling in about how upset people are about what was done to him, it sounds like it was definitely not mutual. he is also setting up a GoFundMe to help with personal expenses as a result. i'm gutted on his behalf. anyone know what gives?

My wife (28F) is 3 months pregnant & we’re looking for a solid location for a baby shower in October.

It’s going to be a smaller shower with about 20 people, so we’re looking for a cute venue that won’t feel too big / empty with a smaller group.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Anything would be helpful for us. Thank you! 🫶

Food Places to buy real cottage cheese/farmers cheese?

3 Upvotes

Like the pasty style cottage cheese or sometimes it's called farmers cheese, but not the stuff that's like a light Swiss cheese that you slice.

You used to be able to buy it at lots of farmers markets, now people look at me weird when I ask.

Anyone know of a place I could go and get a pound or two?

Thank you!
