>>3008230Holy projection batman!
>>3005714there could be play in that wood track how is this different than just stacking it against an edge
>>3008299He's right though, it's extremely pathetic behavior.
>>3008361Except.nothing he has said is even remotely close to the truth... Never cared about watching football at all. Watching nigs chase a ball around just really isn't my cup of tea. She doesn't have a job outside of the home/farm. I guess you could say I'm the "boss" on the farm although I do run ideas for big changes past her because we work together as a team. Sometimes I'll get her input or ask if we have enough money in the account for larger purchases or before dragging another tractor home. She takes care of the financials and bookwork/bank account stuff because once again, not my cup of tea. I don't think it's being a cuck asking, "Hey babe, with all this stupid oil pricing shit going on, do you think we should stock up on some barrels of 15-40 and hy-tran? I found this place online and have 6 barrels of each in the cart, total is almost 10 grand, is the credit card paid off so I have enough balance to complete the transaction?"It's just common courtesy and good communication, which I'm sure you know nothing about... And yes, yesterday morning we had that exact conversation and then after she called the company up and sent in our tax exemption into I got a revised quote and ordered it. Maybe you should step outside, breathe some fresh air, touch some grass, and quit projecting so hard...
Did she hurt you, bro? We're here for you.
>replaced a smart switch without turning off electricity and survived
>>3007316>>3007320I like to consider myself a certified electrician after that
>>3000237i had one of these on one of my old houses radiators and all it meant was it never worked at any hour of the dayhated that fucker
I just fixed some wood rot and it feels great. I only put it off a couple months.
>fixed my water heater all by myself (the fuse was off for some reason)It's been off for more than a year.
>discovered a baby gas leak on my furnace gas valve using soap>tightened the valve all by myself I've been smelling gas there for a long time, but I thought that was vaguely normal.
post your tractors
>>3008215Those are digging/cutting teeth, pirahana bar or similar. it's not a mower.
>>3008302To be fair, it's an excavator with a log grapple. We still call it an excavator, even if it isn't currently used to move soil.
>>3002924As someone who just got a quote on a Kubota, I originally wanted the backhoe attachment. Salesman actually talked me out of it. Why? Take a good hard look at what you will be doing the most with the tractor, or what you will be doing the majority of the time. Turns out, I only needed the backhoe for some work. Mainly trenching and rock removal/moving. But that trenching, once done, that was it for trenching. Rather than drop $10k on the backhoe attachment, rent a mini-excavator for the weekend, or a week, for $300-600 and save my self the 10k~. Unles you are doing lots of trench work, or work specifically that the backhoe is needed for, odds are, no you don't need it. Turns out, I don't really. The other piece is, saving that $10k, now I'll look at other attachments, cheaper ones like a scarifier/scraper, because I before I didn't have the funds with the backhoe in play. Now, I do have the funds absent the backhoe. That plus a front grapple with 3rd function for picking up, well, anything! Oh yea, and front forks. All cause I dropped the backhoe cost.Something to think about.
>>3008466Or don't buy new and you can have multiple more-capable machines for the same cost. Not for everyone I'll admit, but still an option.
>>3008458>pirahana baryou learn something new every day, this arrangement doesnt exist here at all, every shovel is straight edge. Propably because the smallest not asian tractor sold here starts at 70hp
My plan is to catch squirrels in live traps, dye them blue, and let them go. I want to see how long it takes before it becomes a crisis and makes the news. But idk how to dye them. I imagine they won't be too cooperative.
After you shoot em you could probably just pick them up and dip them in a bucket of dye pretty easily
>>3000568Thanks for helping these guys out-knower
>>3000798i get it
>>3006436I just had an idea - create a squirrel trap with a camera hooked to ai to determine whether it is native or invasive by fur color and kills the invasive ones and lets the native ones go, maybe with a little sound and vibration so they don't come back to the trapThis general concept could be adapted to any invasive population of other animals. Like somalians.
>>3000568I had a squirrel kill himself by digging up and drinking all of the outdoor ant bait I put out. Poor guy.
You know how your modern vacuum cleaner, after 2 hours of work, runs out of battery and clogs up with hair so you have to do additional 2 hours of cleaning on the vacuum itself? I've been exploring the alternatives to cleaning the dust off my floor properly, and have been wondering what would be the best thing to get, so I got on 4chan to see what people think.I've watched an episode of How To with John Wilson, and heard about something called a Hoover Constellation vacuum cleaner, which practically floats and cleans very effectively. It's one of those old American products that worked much better that are now replaced by cheap Chinese shit.On the other hand, I could just get a decent broom and simply clean with that, going with the traditional approach rather than modern "efficiency" that compromises proper cleaning. I don't mind doing the manual work, I care more about the authentic, genuine quality of the work itself. So I wondered, does 4chan know of any hidden gems, secrets, or great hidden history behind cleaning dust, that may make this choice easier?
>>3007721The water is the filter
>>3007721They all have a HEPA filter at the exhaust end.
>>3007758Mine doesn't. I guess it's too old to have a hepa filter
>>3003329>runs out of battery >clogs up with hair Try an old one with cord and a rotating brush for hair catching. Replugging and cleaning the brush shouldn't add more than 30 minutes. If there's a major hair or dirt problem just manually broom the floors and brush the carpets before vacuuming. You should wipe the floors every now and then anyways.>>3003510I use a scrub brush for this.>>3007932>too old to have a hepa filterHow ancient is it?
>>3008335>How ancient is it?Maybe 30 yo.
Needed some shelves for the basement mainly to store home canned stuff. Maybe went a bit overboard with the size and sturdiness, but it's what I had on hand and I kinda like the result. Thoughts? Advice?
>>3008019what did you forget on the /diy/ board, you troglodyte?
>>3008337Sharp edges catch on fire easier Always break the edge, that's what they told me anywayAlso when the wood comes straight out of the planer it's sharp as fuck and you can easily cut yourself
>>3008348Who the hell is Steve Jobs?
>>3008420Mostly urinating.This is not an AI response.
>>3008377Also will splinter much easier with sharp corners, and if anon decides to paint it will chip on the corners easier. Chamfers are just nicer all around.
I miss this lil nigga like you would not believe.
>>2988987Dick Smith in the 80's was pretty crazy walking down the aisles with rows upon rows of resistors, caps, transistors, battery holders, meters and billions of other bits. Plus you could get templates to make up your own amplifiers, AM radios, antennas and other proper nerd shit from scratch. Invaluable for fixing your own shit when something popped.That model of retail went out pretty quick by the 90's though and they'd just sell you some cheap taiwanese stuff instead of any kind of DIY apart from plugging it in.
>>3007231>The 6809 kicked the 6502’s ass—hard.It had a built in multiplication unit in the ALU, which was good, but for some reasons, the executions were bad. The Dragon and Coco were slow as molasses and you could type faster than the basic interpreter could handle. That never happened on the 6502 based BBC.As for feature count, the 6309 had even more registers.
>>3007539I went to a big electronics store brand from my country and asked if they have multimeters (I know they used to have those ~10 years ago)First employee didn't know what that means, whipped out his phone looking it up while walking to another employee"A multiwhat?" she didn't know eitherDidn't really believe either of them, went downstairs in the store and asked a younger employee. He just said "We don't have those here"I'm still a zoomer, but I remember electronics stores actually having electronics and not just consoomer slop.Big ass sections of the store dedicated to smart watches, apple slop and RGB keyboards, but nothing useful
>>3007742I went to a local computer store recently to see if they sold motherboards. Nope. No power supplies, fans, or cases either. Forget about optical drives or sound cards. They had RAM, GPUs, and SSDs but no 'low ticket' items. Only things that cost a lot and were common upgrades to existing systems. Nothing you could use to repair anything. High end sound systems? Nah. We do have two racks dedicated to headphones, headsets, and earbuds though. What about shitty tablets and laptops? Do you want a printer? Or better yet, ink? Sorry, no, we don't carry laser printers or toner. Not enough repeat business or markup on those. How about ethernet cables at $5 a foot? Or better yet, wireless access points from the shittiest companies sold at 200% markup? RGB mice and keyboards from Chinese companies you've never heard of? Guaranteed to last at least until you get it home.It looked like picture related inside. I should have turned around and walked right back out.
>>3007742Had pretty much the something happen at Best Buy.>Go to Best Buy to buy a fewthings they had on their website.>Doubled check to make sure its the right location.>2 guys and a MtF fag standing around.>Asked for a DVI to VGA.>Tranny said they don't sell them. Called the tranny out and told them I seen it on the website, that they had 5 on hand at this location.>One guy told me it was down over there.>Looked and nothing there related to video cables.>Asked a different guy. He look at his phone and showed me where it was at.
I'm a cabinet maker looking to make a workshop for woodworking, metalworking, and some basic electronics. I have nothing in the space right now but I have a bunch of cabinets and a bench top ready if that's the best use of the space. What and how should I fill the area? How should it be organized?
>>3004918Probably don't need a laser cutter CNC for something like this.
Here's what I have so far. I used the 800mm cabinets because I have 6 wire frame drawers that fit behind regular doors. I'd prefer using the 600mm cabinets but I think drawers that don't hold dust would be better than an open shelf cabinet.Cabinets I can get for very cheap due to minor damage:Base: 150mm, 4x600mm, 450mm, Wall : 800mm, 2x300mm.Special cabinets: 300mm(h) x 300mm(d) x 900mm(w)
>>3004792they work in other peoples homes
>>3004916>sliding table scoring saw and a timesaver sander and a hot edgebander and a cnc router with a vac table that can hold minimum 2 full sheets and enough in/outfeed roomyou don't need any of that
>>3004916>screwing ikea shit together in your garage is hardly fine woodworkingneither is gluing together and pocket holing edge banded OSB
What is the best. Who has experience?Most important tips for buying etc.I have tons of wood and time on my hands and lumber costs a bunch so...Is it worth it to jump from models that cost $5,000 up to a $10,000 model?
>>3008035>cottonwoodcut fullsize 3x8 or bigger makes primo trailer decking. itll drink up a shitload of used oil for sealer and not get too slick
i saw a guy build a rig where he just mounts his chainsaw to it and it gets the job done for cheap, might be worth looking into if you're just a home gamer.
>>3008102Those are called Alaskan mills or chainsaw mills. It's worth it to get milling chains I hear from the SurvivingRingworm yt channel.
>>3007981How long for wood to dry on the SHORTEST timeline.I got dry covered space, but it will have to air dry out.Do I need to make this lumber in the fall and build in the spring? Or not long enough?
>>3008102Kerf loss is a problem here. Unless you're cutting 4x4 or more.
I'm moving out specifically bc my upstairs neighbor been coofing since he moved in months ago, trying to get out as quickly as possible before I'm too mad but I hit a hole in the ceiling with a bucket bc he also plays loud bass karaoke at six in the morningThis is pushed in a bit and falling apart, it's about six inches wide and I don't know there's some wood or cardboard, should I like break off the paint or spackle whatever the white shit is and try to save the wood part and paint over it or wut, should I just let my landlord handle this I'm sure he already has paint and shit
>>3008405>Let the landlord handle itOh, sonny, I'm going to have to hire someone and good help is so expensive. And have you seen the price of material? Heavens, it's pricey now. I'm afraid it's going to eat up your entire $1500 deposit.
>>3008406I only had to deposit 450 :p
>>3008233That's a nice playhouse you got there. It'd be a shame if a bear used it.
>>3008235Think they trapped it actually. I'm going to reinforce it with metal. Hopefully that bounces off some of the generator noids but if it doesn't I'm going to build a palletoid wall and line it with the ruined insulation from when the bear demolished my tent and it got rained on while I was getting my stuff out of mumblatts house as I had just moved from the shartwest rentoid house to the mountains to buy land and live off rentoid money. She is always rushing me and it sucks. I can't wait to cut the cord and chill out without her presence looming over my shoulder. I just need some more building materials from her and then I can tell her to stop bothering me so much

Why are so many Americans willing to pay for someone else to mow their lawn?
>>3004926>countyI have the advantage of not live in the USA.
>>3004022The real question is why do they want so much lawn on their property.
>>3007506>I was recently wondering why car washes are present like 10x more than when I was a kidit's "bad for the environment" to wash your own car at your house. you're supposed to get it washed at a car wash so all the harmful chemicals can drain to some magical place where they won't get into the water table.
I'm getting closeit's not the mowing it's the mowing plus edge trimming plus bush trimming plus weed wacking plus weed killer application and tree trimming and thicker branch cutting on the bushes and then repeat for the backyard and sprinkler maintenance and lawn aeration and lawn food though I just got a cordless brushless hedge trimmer finally so the bushes are easier now, it'll even do bigger branches so I don't have to bust out the hand saw nowI'm renting and there's a ridiculous variety of bushes at my house, way too tall too, I either struggle with a ladder or struggle with a pole trimmerI knocked down one bush a few feet to make it easier and the owners didn't seem to mind, maybe I'll do the other nowI've bought all the equipment now tho so I can't go back
>>3004022These days my street has a lot of Asians. Vietnamese cut their own grass because they are frugal people. Chinese pay someone to do it because they think its low status to cut your own grass.
A real man keeps the guard on an angle grinder. He works safely, because he knows others are counting on him.
I use chainsaw blades.
What if it's made in china

>>3006972Every boomer I know remodeled their house, me and my neighbor kept our childhood homes as close to original as possible with the exception of replacing wiring and bathroom out of necessity to avoid mold or whatever maintenance issues come down the line. It's always women who want to remodel everything, then some years later they regret it if they don't sell, because of nostalgia. I just wish I'd taken more pictures for future restoration.
