The first thing a real man does when he gets a new angle grinder is rip off the guard and toss it in the garbage.
@2991539Imagine being such a queer that you have to intentionally make a tool more dangerous while increasing its utility by precisely 0.0% to feel tough for random anonymous people.
>>2991898Imagine being such a queer you seethe about someone doing whatever they want with their own property.
>>299189ate (you)hi sweaty1st off you seemed to have confused how to reply on an asiatic submarine sedge patterning imageboard. here the 'at' symbol is used by genderfluidtypes seeking likeminded associates for promiscuous networking. but you already knew that so kindly fuck off back to twatternow if youd ever touched a skilsaw with your clamy knob polishers youd know how that guard will ratfuck you on acute angle cuts and push the blade off the line. a real shiity time when cutting a stack of rafter fishmouths. and if you have to trim less than 1" off a board itll fucking jam in there and cause more assache >but it has the little thumb tab for holding opensure but that ties up your free hand thats often being used to hold the board or ash your cigarette or any other more valuable task than holding the front handle like your purse. and then if you let it go too soon it snaps around and jams anyways so now that youve had a primer on the finer points of the skilsaw guard you can reevaluate you previous interpretation and potentially reconsider suicide
>>2945320There are two types of peopleThose that remove the guardand those that make mistakes
>>2987097it does and you can't see what ur doing with the guard

>>2991966lastly, a keezer will make this much quicker because more co2 can dissolve at lower temps
>wake up>the batch I gave up on and was going to throw away is bubbling like crazyThe best feeling.
>>2991967>20psiThat sounds crazy low to me. Every resource I find suggests psi based on surrounding temp (which at room temp is about 30 minimum). Plus whetting pressure which is another ~5psi.>making sure your carb stone is fizzing and not bubbling is the keyI guess it's possible that too much psi actually backfires on me since it "clogs" the stone? I'll try your way anyway since I have nothing to lose.
>>2992002psi will depend on the temperature and amount of carbonation you want. my wife and i like it at 15, it's just a tad below what you get from commercial canned water, but i've had it at 30 psi too and liked that as well. i switched over to duotight fittings years ago (wouldn't recommend it) but do have flow control ball lock fittings on all my kegs so that may contribute to more carbonation at less pressure since it's not blasting out of my tapstoo much psi won't clog the stone, but a lot of co2 rushing in at once causes it to make large bubbles instead small fizzy ones, kinda defeating the purpose of it
>>2992002also i do keep my keezer normally at 34°f
The company that sells these (db gurney) has them out of stock for months at a time and I need them. Any ideas on how to make them/make a machine that will make them?
>>2991991>make a machine that will make themcalled a cold header but as the saying goes>if ya hav ta ask
>>2991991Maybe something simple like go from a nail header into a spring swage
I miss this lil nigga like you would not believe.
>>2989045Yeah online shopping is so cheap now, you just need to pay for 11 dollars shipping and handling for a 3 dollar part or spend 35 dollars or more in eligible items to qualify for free shipping
>>2990276As opposed to Radio Shack, where you'd spend $3 on five ten-cent parts when you only needed one, or $5 on a twenty-five cent part, and everything you needed for a project would add up fast. If they even had the parts you needed, even back in the days of swinging dividers filled with hanging parts. Mouser and Digi-Key were a thing well before the internet era.
I still break out my 2017 Newark catalogue every once in a while. But back in the 90s, early 2000s, a radio shack was my third home.
>>2988916
>>2990135Some time in the early 90s the company got a copy of every address USPS considered to be valid and started validating addresses against that. The manager at the local store was so proud of it that he offered me $100 if I could bring in duplicate fliers sent to the same address. My dad got pissed when they started charging a couple of dollars for the catalog in 1994, even if the coupons in the back more than paid him back for the cost. Don't know if we received a free copy in the mail, but they were charging to get copies from the store.
i’ve been able to trap them easily using these live traps and peanuts as bait. But they keep coming back, so I need to find out how they’re getting in. I guess that they’re coming in somewhere around the sill plate. But these are deer mice, I think, so they could be climbing up higher and finding an entrance somewhere else. I’ve heard that it’s fruitless to try to seal every possible entrance. Should I just get a cat?
>>2991078>I knew that you Americans have some weird ass hollow walls for vermin to live in, but I didn’t know that you don’t even have water pipes running in your wallsmight be one of the most baffling, retarded things I've read in /diy/
>>2982780bucket of water, & peanut butter on the end of a long stick over the water. the mice will climb the stick to get to the food, and fall off & drown.
>>2991078the mice dont bother you because if you have rats the rats eat the micerats are horrifyingyou stay over there, Ill stay over here.again, insects, rodents and scavengers need to be managed. there's a million places in the world I dont think you need to exterminate all rodents from.The inside of your conditioned living space should be rodent free. The ones that have learned how to get inside and live inside unfortunately need to be killed. I would be very serious about washing my hands after live trapping and transporting untame rodents for miles. with the hantavirus ship thing going on, obvisously caused by mice or rats on board the ship, I can only can only shake my head and wonder what the hell you people are thinking
>>2991175Hantavirus has been endemic in the US for 30 years.There was probably no.human-human transmission, there was just so much rat shot on board they couldn't figure it out
>>2982810Not only did the packrats get past the foam+wool, they then stole the remaining steel wool and put it in their collection of shiny things in a nest under the house as an extra 'fuck you'.
Feasible to convert this to a little house? I think I could make a little DIY slab or something and spray foam it.I was gifted the kit after helping a friend clear land and its unused and complete. Is this just a retarded idea? Ive got 10k avaliable or should I just keep living out of my.van
Theres a youtube vid about it. looks like a decent garage depending on your area and weather could be holding at least for a few years. Zinq frames could keep up longer. Walls could easily be foamed but the additional load to the roof? I would say no. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1-lyQ7sRLA
>>2991170This. >>2991151Op why bother with this shed when you could put your money toward material that would yield a smarter structure. Also windows and doors. Dig a foot, gravel, form, footings and slab then stick build right on top. Build it with a single slope roof with generous overhangs and aim it south.
>>2991151go for it, even if you can only get a perimeter and/or bearing wall foundation and lay down used carpet for "floor".Just have a half-assed plan to add joists or slab later.If you build a "real" small home this will be your storage, etc.I built a 12x16 metal barn from Home Depot. I was gifted a bunch of butal rubber chaulk and I think it really helped join the metal and some sound proofing.you really need a helper to hold the floppy panels during assembly.Once framed it seemed very structurally strong.
>>2991952>Once framed it's very structurally strong No shit, it's glorified siding. Why not just frame and then put siding instead of doing it in reverse
>>2991491Based on the thumbnail I though that was made of blocks. Which made it look light a double-sized version of the bathrooms in a nearby park. So, maybe don't use that design for non-shed/bathroom structures.
What were the worst incidents you had while trying to /diy/ something?Some dumb shit I did: >Electrocute myself while trying to change a smoke detector cause the power was still in>Watertight sealant on a new drain, only to find out it was still in plastic once I was done and let it dry for 2 days>Drill into electric cable>Attach pipes that turn out to be leaking a few days later
fell down
I was removing an intercom system and a wire was in my way. For some reason i assumed it was just a low voltage cable and decided to just cut it. It was in fact not a low voltage cable but a 12 gag romex. The cable arced and left a black spot on the wall, the breaker tripped after that. Could have probably ended a lot worse.
>>2986536I forget why but I was digging out in the front yard and hit a little bundle of telephone wires. I was maybe 10ft from the junction box/pole whatever that fuckin thing is. Didnt go completely through so I just buried that shit right back like it was and found another spot far away to dig my hole.Maybe three months later I’m trying to exit my driveway and the guy in a van is out there scratchin his head tryin to figure what the fuck is wrong with somebody’s phone service. We didn’t notice any interruptions because sail foams n shit. Went to go ask if there was something I could help him with and I forget what he said but his tone was “fuck off asshole” so I said okay man and went back to my car.He was gone when I got back but he must’ve come back 5 or 6 times over the next few months I would basically watch him trying to figure out what was wrong through my front window.End scene.
>>2986553You can also use the probe for bed tilting. You let it probe 3 points and the printer knows how tilted the bed is and adjusts the z-level automatically ehile printing a layer.

Sheet metal in the cooker had sliced halfway into my finger earlier.>>2990270Trust him get the brush stuff, superglue is exothermic while it cures, it heats up and can burn the skin around the wound. They made nuskin stuff specifically as superglue-for-skin because it doesn't do that. I carry a bottle with me everywhere I go, I genuinely can't recall a time in years when I haven't had at least one active wound/cut/scrape, I am constantly clumsily taking damage. Just keep painting nuskin on the top and it doesn't hurt (after it dries) and holds it together.
My neighbor recently put up several of these animal deterrent sensors that emit a loud high pitched noise. They are constantly ringing and she refuses to take them down even after several other people in the neighborhood complained to her about the loud noise. What are some ways I can get back at her? My ideas are: throwing wildflower seeds in her yardletting my grass grow tall so more weeds and dandelions go into her yard giving her phone number to pollical and telemarking groups She has cameras in her yard. But this is 4chan give me your worst.
write an online blog about it and let us know how many up-doots you get so that we know how many times to clap
>>2991835>deaf geezers the time this really surprised me was an old guy friend of mine asked me to come look at his shop compressor because he thought it wasnt making air and needed a ring/valve jobi get there and we bullshit while this 25hp 4cyl beast churns away rattling the entire building even though it was in a tin shed on the outside. i asked how long itd been running before i got there and he looked confused and said he needed to wire a pilot light that came on when it was running because he couldnt hear it otherwiselong story long there was a 1" pipe elbow back in a corner split lengthwise leaking about 75cfm which kept the system maxed out at 60 psi but he couldnt hear the leak either so never looked
>>2991896I think that the instinct most people have where you go "oh shit this is going to disturb people", simply does not exist in boomers, probably due to their sociopathy
>>2991919youre substantially overestimating the prevalence of hearing protection use before the mid 90s. yes boomers are daft but theyre also literally deafits also well documented that everyone born prior to y2k has substantial hearing loss in their left ear from driving around with the window down all the time in cars without act. child of the 90s with tinnitus from working on open station farm equipment in my adolescence
Every single on of these "what do I do about my neighbor who won't stop doing things I don't like" threads should have the same exact answer. Deal with it through the authorities/police. If you go on to their property without permission, or if you damage/take their property, you are putting yourself at legal risk. Do not do it.

Anyone know what to do to make a cyber deck? Do I need a raspberry pi because it would be hard for me to buy one online. Any alternatives?
>>2989126>LGA1700 is EOL. They're not going to produce newer CPUs for the socket than what already exists. I'd say any socket is better than no socket desu. For example, 4 sockets on a motherboard is better than none. Without a socket your stuck running 2GB's of RAM because the original manufacturer thought that's all anyone would ever need. Sure LGA1700 is EOL, but it still support supports up to Intel 14th Gen Core i9 processors, the highest of which is still extremely overkill for casual office CPU's right now. The idea here isn't to build a supercomputer with the best of everything that costs as much as a used car. It's an insurance policy that allows your computer will have some extra options a decade down the line. You could go all out and buy the most expensive chips right now, or you could wait for prices to lower over time as new and better technology comes along. If your budget friendly the 1700 is already pretty cheap for the size (about 100USD) and has a path that allows for folks interested in a computer with changeable parts a way to keep moving forward when laptops made at the same time fail within 3-5 years at a similar price point.
>>2983773The one in the OP actually looks like it'd be pretty useful as a portable diagnostic console or a field computer despite the retarded off-center screen but for the most part it's just zoomies larping with ewaste strewn around in a box they will never willingly use
>>2983706The best use case for these that I've seen is for guys who need test equipment in the field. Integrate a digital o-scope and power supply, run cables or antenna from it.

>Rolling over a mitered jointCould you illustrate? I don't understand at all. Thanks anon
>>2991319Poor quality proof of concept video.If it looks like a hack that's 'cause it sorta is yet it can sometimes make a joint look better. For example when miter wrapping a porch column if there's a little variation in that long mitered rip this can even it out. Or lightly on stain grade baseboard if the corners have been mudded out of square.Also I put 'rolling' in quotes because it's not really rolling like a wheel yet that's what I've heard this called. Smoothing? Something.

The Vaughan CF with curved wood handle has lasted me close to 20 years, daily use. Getting weaker at the handle to head connection so its retired and hangs on the wall.

>>2991072>These contractors need price regulationThey have price regulation. It's regulated simply by you not using them if they're too expensive. If the price really was ridiculous, they would not be able to charge the rates they are and stay in business because they'd have no customers.

I'm trying to create an inner shell for my garage in order to soundproof it and AAC came up. Worth it?
>>2991150>If you're just after sound proofing I think other materials are better for this, some foam probably.Fuck no. Glass or mineral fiber wool is for that.
>>2991758This. Mineral wool is absolutely superior for soundproofing and provides good insulation that cannot hold water.
>>2991787>that cannot hold waterbreathable insulation is actually a good thing, it helps regulate indoor moisture and improve air quality. just don't use non-permeable paint/plaster on the outside because dew will form under it, freeze and make the whole thing crumble and fall off.
>>2991802>freezeNot a problem in my area, bucko.
>>2991810you still shouldn't paint over it with acrylic paint or other non-breathable shit because the moisture will accumulate in your walls instead of freely evaporating outside, potentially causing mold and not helping you regulate indoor humidity without relying on ventilation
