Looking for brand recommendations, primarily 2 classes of coveralls, one for hard use and one for everyday wear (warmth, comfort and simple)
this is coveralls
>>2871072>ripstop and water proof/resistantProbably something military - look into a coverall for fueling technicians. >t. wear my spec-ops fueller's jacket over my Key coveralls in wet weather
>>2868168>Only downside I'm trying to work out is conceal carry while wearing one.lol lmao even
>>2871072like this
>>2873506if you fartedwould I die?or would it be extremely painful
>incredibly strong, can survive every kind of natural disaster>cheap>readily available
>>2866090Depends some areas concrete is expensive. Also depends on what type of concrete your using too some mixes like ECC will handle earthquakes better but the cost is rather high. But the government doesn't like concrete walls due to it blocking thermals.
we associate them with thirdies
>>2866090makes europeans seethe because not everyone lives on a climate controlled continent like them.
Hey fagonauts, news flash:If you want an incredibly strong, cheap and readily available home invest in a fucking quonset or nissen hut

I came across this instructional video of proper debate technique, but the parts I want are spliced in with the news interview. How can I edit out the interview part and end up with the just the instructional debate part in one vid?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmO-ziHU_D8Is this the correct how to board for this?
>>2869346take the video, remove the parts you don't want.
>>2869439>FFmpegNot the most beginner friendly, or easiest option.>>2869346Just download some kind of free video editing software. OpenShot is one option. Or pirate a copy of Premiere Pro.>Is this the correct boardNo. A simple google search could have come up with the answer in less than a minute. I imagine you have similar intelligence and research skills to the gentleman in the picture you attached.
>>2869520>OpenShot is one optionAre there any web based options where I do not have to install their software on my computer?As far as the gentleman in the pic, he DIY his own head protection from what he had available to him in a poor country that was fighting against a US lead coup with government snipers shooting and armormed vehicles running over unarmed people
this is now a diy riot helmet thread
Hello chad mx anons. My suspension guy retired and he refused to tell me the ins and outs of suspension thinking it would hurt his business. I tried another suspension shop but the forks on my mx bike were like a jackhammer 3rd gear plus on breaking or acceleration bumps. There were fine 2nd gear or slower, so I know it was the higher speed compression that caused the harshness. I have the Racetech suspension book, but it does not explain well the relationship between float in the midvalve and the pressure spring at the top. I was so pissed at the harshness of the forks I just increased the float by removing the thick shim (there were three, two thin and one thick), which greatly increased the float. I also changed the pressure spring from 1.8 to 1.4. Overall its much much better, but I have to be a bit careful with hard front brake AND turning in as it drives a bit. I can deal with it by breaking harder earlier and letting off just before I turn in, but I wanted to know if I can keep the pleasent feeling of riding over the breaking bumps at speed and reduce somewhat the dive of the forks. I am still not clear on the value of the increased float vs a softer compression stack of the midvalve. Can I have zero float and a two stage midvalve where the first stage is really soft to handle the square edge bumps? I have 47mm upside down twin cartridge forks, and the correct fork and shock springs for my weight
>>2871548No, we were just using words different. I went back and looked at your pictures, your pressure spring is your rebound.More i thought about it its probably the oil. The viscosity characteristics of different oils vary wildly. New guy used something different.Sageing your worthless thread.
>>2871623>your pressure spring is your rebound.total retardation. The main spring pushes the fork back into position and is for setting riding ride hieght based on weight and desired sag, and the rebound clickers (needle controls fluid flow) and shims control rebound. Oil viscosity is one tuning option.The pressure spring is part of the compression control, along with oil height and viscosity. If you studied the floating piston movement you would see how the change in oil height (say increased oil height) more quickly decelerates the piston's upward movement as the fork compresses - increasing the air pressure in the outer portion and there are two hols in the top of the inner cartridge that allows the compressed air in flow into and behind the floating piston to increase bottoming resistance. You are still retarded get out of my thread, but you can look at the girly picks if you want, but your are probably gaaaay.
>>2872000Goodbye whiney mx anon.
>>2872074I will miss your retardation and help keeping my thread alive another day.
Who all went 72+ hours with one or more failed utilities in sub freezing weather? I mean like the entire city is out, not just the neighborhood or small section. Cause of failure is irrelevant; if it's out it's out.What were some gadgets you found most useful?What things did you buy in advance as an attempt to prep for an extended utility (especially power) outage, but proved to be a gimmick or otherwise failed/useless?What things did you wish you had bought in advance, or bought more quantity and/or higher quality/capacity?>recently moved to area that routinely gets -10F for weeks at a time (-20F is not unheard of)>tornadoes in summerso far my biggest concern is power being knocked out for a week straight or some shit, especially during our brutal winters. I am asking here for people who actually lived extended utility outages and not some sponsored influencer guessing at shit or trying to sell gimmick trash.
Always wanted one of these but I live in Texas so I would never end up needing it.>>2871515My power stayed on the whole freeze, it was really comfy. I did end up buying one of those propane tank-top heaters later that spring though, just in case. Already have a propane grill and an extra tank so if the power did go down I'd be alright. Good idea to get some power banks and maybe a car jump box. A lot of people went out to try and start their car to warm up/charge their phones and the battery just didn't want to start because of the cold.
>>2871515>Texas >big freeze

What kind of substance could you spray on a tin roof to get snow to slide off more easily. Would be best if it could be bought in bulk and sprayed on with a backpack sprayer or pump up sprayer. Also obviously would be best if it dried cleanly and didn't attract dust. Silicone spray? Some kind of hydrophobic coating? Rain-X? Pam cooking spray? Liquid Teflon of some sort? I did a quick google search and most everything I saw was talking about putting baffles on the roof to keep the snow from coming off, which is the exact opposite of what I want. Are there any commercial coatings made for this sort of thing? We had a major snow storm here recently and the snow was super wet and heavy. It took down a bunch of local haysheds, a few shops, and quite a few of those little car-ports. Luckily I didn't lose any of my own buildings, but I would like to hedge my bets against future snow storms. I will definitely be pulling gutters off of the haysheds I do have mainly because I noticed they would catch the snow trying to come off the roof and then more snow would pile up behind that. Obviously it is less of an issue for steeper roofs as they naturally shed the snow more efficiently. Most of the sheds that collapsed had around a 1:12 or 2:12 pitch and were engineered for the usual snow load of our area.

Has anyone diy'd their own sauna? HomeDepot wants $2k for a kit, barrel sauna wants $8k, the markup on these little cuck sheds is insane. It can't be too hard to build your own can it? What kind of wood do you have to use that can withstand the heat and steam?

It's not a complicated structure. Just a box with a stove in it.Use cedar.

I hate these fucking things so much. I'm generally pretty animal friendly but holy shit do I not feel any sort of remorse when I have to kill a live one caught by its feet in a trap. I hate them. I fucking hate them.Are glue traps /diy/able? We have some animal protection laws preventing them to be sold here but I figure they would be pretty effective. I've been seriously contemplating on some kind of a solenoid contraption with a ir sensor or something that would slap the shit out of them when they run under it.
I'm not some mouse-trapping pro but I've seen that the walk-the-plank style traps work the best according to some faggot on youtube.I also had the little wind-up box ones that rotate and allegedly catch multiple mice, they don't usually, they only catch 1 at a time any time I've used them, only once have one of them caught two in my house, somehow the mice tip the other mice off (maybe they were eating all the peanut butter that normally attracts them). What they do is catch them nearly 100% of the time, and they have good attraction rates in general since the mouse crawls into the little hole. You just have to kill the mouse after and put the trap back, but as far as just catching them efficiently those wind-up box traps work well.>>2864982>Secure the area from entryThis isn't possible in many older houses, at least not without a ton of work. Trapping and killing the mice is probably the best way to do it short-term, and long-term maybe you can shore up your house against them or maybe you have more important projects to work on.
>>2864608what do you mean? like sealing off doors?
People who choose glue traps are some kind of evil.
>>2872598this is the anon you replied to. my house's mice very coming through the gap between the concrete and the dryer vent and traveling around the outside of the vent pipe, then dug at the basement concrete wall near the foundation and spread from there. They slowly found other pathways once they were inside, like behind the washroom near the main entrance, along the outside hose pipe, behind the kitchen cabinets, etc. I first started setting a fuckton of traps to kill the ones that were inside, that resulted in 27 dead mice within 3 weeks, then I started going room by room, starting with the laundry room, empty, disinfecting the hell out of everything, moving and separating mounted stuff, and then using a combination of stainless steel wool/copper wool, hardware cloth/chicken wire no larger than 1/4" square sized, and PL glue and Durabond 90 to seal off anything they had opened and anything that looked like it was wide enough for them to pass through to other rooms. And so on. I ended up ripping off my whole kitchen, which was due for replacement anyway, and found a mouse highway near the plumbing through the subfloor, had to get that re-done so they can't come through there again, and there wouldn't need to be so much routed out of the cabinets. It's really a nightmare, but it is doable, and once all their pathways inside are blocked and you've disinfected and cleaned everything, then it's time to do the same for the exterior, between the foundation and siding on both front and back yards/garage/etc. hardware cloth and wafer screws are your friends here, as well as spray foam after.
>>2864027Just found one of these fuckers dead in my garage an hour ago. The bastard gnawed his own body to get out of the glue trap. What's crazy is there was no activity yesterday. Damn thing even got into my garage sink. I had a bag of grass seed in the garage that apparently attracted him. I have bait boxes all around the house as a preventative measure; it's a literal mousewitz, but I still have to put out traps.
>Is there a way to electronically jam an electronic lock? As in essentially overpower its circuit and fry the electrical component?The landlord of my small apartment complex has an airbnb in here and has the main entrance lock electric and it fucking sucks dick and they refuse to make it mechanical because the airbnb fags would complain.
>>2873383Not really. You should check your city ordanance to see if the Air BnB is permitted or even registered like they have to in my region. Air BnB's are a scourge. Such low class people use them. :-(
>>2873383no jamal, try not breaking laws for at least 1 day.
>>2873405I just want the lock to go down so that he's forced to give us a physical key. >>2873404It is permitted, he's converted over half of his apartments to Airbnb.
just pour superglue all over the buttons, kid.no matter what you do, he'll replace it and charge your mom more rent.
Roomate moved out, dude had long hair and exclusively peed in the sink instead of using the toilet. Water goes down but not quickly and I don't want to take it apart to pull the stopper out to deep clean it. Is there anything that can be poured down there that can clean out hard water+piss and probably hair?
>>2872537Nothing wrong with being a sink-pisser, but that Mf should be punished for not cleaning the precious sink after finishing. Anyways, to clean piss residue you can use any acid such as Vinegar (25%) or Sodium Bisulfate (sold as toilet cleaner). To get rid of organic waste such as hair use Sodium Hydroxide (sold as drain cleaner but only the powdered / granular variant is good, liquid sucks.) Don't mix these chems all at once obviously. First piss removal, use gloves, scrub it with an old sponge, then rinse with plenty of water and as last step use the sodium hydroxide (drain cleaner). The longer it can react in the drain the more it can dissolve organic residue, so I would only rinse hours later.

Why do these tards never learn and always use a full sized tired immediately? These pop up on my feed and like every third one either the chain breaks or the culvert gets pulled out of the ground entirely. Just use an ATV tire or a wheel barrow tire or something. Anything to get the water flowing.
How do they initially get the chain through? In my experience culverts usually only clog up on the intake side.
>>2873348Hook one end into a piece of pipe and push it through. Just have to keep positive pressure on it or you have to start over

It's been a good while since we've had a good tractor thread.
>>2871504Smooth your field out
I was in PA last year just driving around. I was relatively deep in the mountains and saw a fuck ton of cars parked in this massive field. Stopped, bought a ticket, it was a farming expo. These farmers all brought their antique tractors, steam tractors, these massive grain cultivators from 200 years ago. Amish, white mountain dwellers, it was a wild place. If I had pics on this phone I'd upload them for you guys, you would get a kick out of what I saw. You farmers LOVE your machines.
I've been looking to buy a used tractor for tilling a garden and moving logs out of my woods for a little while and I'm torn between getting a Wheel Horse D200 and a Magnatrac Jr. with a loader bucket. The D200 doesn't come with a tiller but has a Cat 0 hitch and the Magnatrac doesn't have a rear pto at all but I figure I could plumb one in. Any thoughts or better options I should look into? I will say I'm not looking to get anything much bigger than these. Wouldn't have a place to store it.
>>2873201If you want to keep that small then get both other wise would something the size of a grey Ferguson be too big?
>>2873201>AnonymousSmall tractors are surprisingly capable but I absolutely wouldn't buy one without a loader already installed. It will change how you approach everything. Ironically the same could be said about having a proper, hydraulic 3 point hitch. Rear PTO is super handy too, I fabbed up a wood chipper that is so much fucking better than a standalone unit. Another thing, try to buy a tractor as a package, ie get one that already has all the shit you need. Finding specific attachments for a tractor that is already 30 years old is a fucking hassle. Also, Cat 0 is a pain in the ass to work with. If I was buying again, I'd be looking for something hydrostatic, 4wd, and cat 1. Look on CL/FB for grandpa died kind of deals where the kids don't want anything to do with any of it. That Magnatrac will rip the shit out of the ground with those tracks. Even my rubber tracked chinese mini ex does.
should I build a desk or buy one?situation: I am traveling to a remote jobsite and staying in employee housing. the houses are set up for miners so just bed nightstand dresser, that's it. I want to bring my workstation, so I will need a desk to put it on. hard mode: I already left and didnt think about bringing any tools. I have two options:buy a desk for $50 from walmartbuild a desk for $50 from wood from the wood storeI have: + and -, adjustable wrench, hammer.
>>2871235this one? how is it? i want to get something but not spend >$80although i would prefer something with more structural rigidity
>>2871164That is uncalled for and projection
>>2872593its fine, it naturally wobbles a bit since its just legs into a weak top, but it feels fine.If you are a heavyset person and lean your elbows into the desk all day long, putting alot fo upper body weight into the desk, probably get something else though. also if you eat at your desk, you will need a mat because I already stained it a bit with some rice somehow.
