Found this vise laying around, seems to be missing the nut? ACME thread I'd assume. Or are there more bits than that missing? Doesn't even have a name or anything on it so might not be worth the hassle to find the parts.
>>2980090>Or are there more bits than that missingYou'd also need a washer big enough to hold the threaded part in the stationary half to close the jaw
>>2980090ACME / Trapezoidal is terrible for clamping, that's a square thread. I'd say it's not worth the hassle..
>>2980090That's about 35% of a bench vise. Yeah, you are missing most of it.
>>2980090As the other anon said it's a square thread. You're probably not going to find a nut to work with your current thread. You can buy acme threaded rod and a coupling nut or a couple of standard nuts and make your own if you're willing to put in the work. I've heard the naysayers say that acme threads aren't as good in vises, but I repaired one exactly how I mentioned and it's been wailed on relentlessly for years now. Get some better pictures of the fixed jaw inside where the slide goes with better lighting. Most of them have a dovetail like feature where the vise nut slides in and is retained by the tapered walls and maybe a bolt as well. Pic rel is the first time I broke and fixed my piece of shit abused vise. 2nd time the nut stripped out so it got replaced with acme thread and a home built vise nut. 3rd time I cracked the stationary jaw casting and welded er up with some nickel rod... It's still getting abused pretty much daily.

So I have these tiles I want to reuse because I cannot find them anymore. But the thing with these tiles is that they have really hard mortar that is a bitch to chisel away 1 mm at a time. I already broke a tile trying to big balls it with a chisel. I already tried an angle grinder but the dust amount it produces is too messy. How the fuck do I get rid of the mortar from these fucking tiles in an easy way?
>>2975875Even if you remove all the mortar around the edges the tiles are set on more mortar.
>>2975887We did this to a mastic shower. The pressure washing worked just fine, but it's a huge waste of effort to demo and haul everything up and down flights of stairs so many extra times. The original tile layout was ok, but everything else was horribly screwed up. The pan was sloped away from the drain. The liner was not correct. No pre slope. The framing in every wall had to be redone. It was important to get everything correct to fit their prefab door.
>>2975875>I already tried an angle grinder but the dust amount it produces is too messyThoroughly wet the mortar on the back to help cut the dust down, it'll make a mess but at least the silica won't be airborne
I've bought picrel for grinding indoors. Works pretty well. But you need good vacuum cleaner and preferably cyclone separator.
>>2975875Get a decent pair of nippers, line them up and the mortar will break of in clean chunks, but you WILL likely have to go back and clean the edges with a grinder. It's not a job you want to do, particularly if it's pattern tiles with two different sizes. If you have to, take'em all out and do some whenever you have some free time. Don't do this shit unless you have to.
Hi /diy/, I am trying to come up with the best way to fix a room with poor ventilation. It has a single sliding window, right next to the entrance door so airflow to the opposite corner is non-existent, that's where my bed and desk are. Weather is fresh right now but often times the room feels damp, during summer heat it gets very hot inside with stale air even though I can feel air is fresh right through the window, but there is no way to make it circulate through the room. I've made a simple drawing to show the bedroom dimensions in centimeters. I've also drawn below that what I have in mind, I will make clear I have zero knowledge about ventilation in general. What I'm thinking of is adding simple ducting (circular, cheap semi flexible aluminium duct) that starts roughly at the wall opposite from the window, running through either side of the room and ends on the top part of the existing window. The bottom side of the window would be covered with plywood or whatever to simulate two really small windows serving as intake and exhaust, these would be around 10cm x side, or 4 inches, separated by around 100cm (hopefully enough to prevent "mixing"). The end of the duct on top and the bottom square to serve as "intake" would have gaps around them because a hermetic seal on a window that must remain functional for rain is hard. At first I thought running the duct through the right side of the room (yellow line) for aesthetic reasons, because there wouldn't be a big duct hanging on the entrance, but the problems with that is firstly, there's a wooden bookshelf right on the other side of the window that I'd need to drill a big hole to pass the duct through, then there's my blinds headrail (little orange line next to the window), this doesn't leave a lot of space to work with, at much 3-4 inches without needing extra work to move it frontwards, also would need a few sharp 90 bends that I'm just now learning adds a lot of air resistance.
>>2975282>Just leave the window open longer. Even if it feels like air isn't moving much, there is definitely some exchange going.I've tried leaving the window open all night and it barely helps, the perceived temperature difference between my room and my yard is massive.>consider making someThey're aluminium frame windows, idk how that'd be called in english speaking countries but they already have some tiny gaps around the edges, probably unintentional that aid in improving circulation. Even if I added more it'd make little difference because the window is so far from my desk.>If only your room has this problem, then you can go with a smaller fan, again, ideally through the roof. Only my room has this problem because all the other rooms are designed in a way that doors and windows are diagonally opposed.I should have added this in the OP, my bad. My walls and ceiling are not drywall, they're brick and plaster. And for some strange reason my roof is like 40-50 centimeters thick, probably hollow but not important.It's not easy working with this type of material, it leaves an awful lot of waste and dust.>well pressurizing computer fanComment too long.

typos>>2979970>they're brick and plaster*so I cannot just tear down my ceiling and work on the insides like I would with drywall panels. It has to be on the exterior.>>2975383It's fine, my computer and fans are noisy anyway.>>2976720>inverter ACThat would indeed be overkill for a single bedroom wouldn't it? I don't know if there's issues with brick and plaster walls vs drywall anyway, it's about 20cm thick.>even more poorfag route and install a swap cooler right on your windowThat sounds interesting, have you done anything like that before? Does installation height matter? I don't mind much doing the work myself around my existing window except for the part of working with glass (I think my windows may even be double layered, because there's a two tiny hairline cracks outside but none inside), I've never cut glass or anything like that. If I ruin it, it costs at least $150. The swap coolers I'm looking at amazon and local marketplaces are priced around this range.Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
Also I may get into regularly working with electronics so proper ventilation becomes even more important for avoiding breathing flux and other waste fumes.
>>2979970>My walls and ceiling are not drywall, they're brick and plaster. And for some strange reason my roof is like 40-50 centimeters thick, probably hollow I assumed that much, take a hammer drill to it, make a hole, it's not that hard. Yeah you need to cover the working area with foil to contain the dust, so what, do it properly the first time instead of crying about half-assed solutions.But if you insist on the idiot ducts, 4-5" would be fine.
so there is this room is next to mine, and my dad welds and polishes metal in it. We polish metal all day long, and I recently bought bottled water, and after leaving it in my room for a day or two, it had a strange, metallic taste when I drank it again. Do you think it could be lead dust from what we were polishing?I also weld and polish, and lately I feel nauseous when I eat.
Do you have a multi-meter? Check the resistance of the water before and after leaving it out over night. Less resistance afterwards likely means more metal.
>>2975540>just have a glass of milk it's fine!
>>2975540interesting about the milk, what you might want to look into is "chelating foods" or supplementsIt does sound like symptoms of heavy metal poisoning though :(
drink milk, it binds to metal dust and helps you produce mucous that binds to metal dust, letting you shit it out
vinegar is smelly open a bottle in your room.incense burn cold making a languid smoke trail put a fan in the door to your room and open windows in the work shop move the incense around outlets and in the corners the smoke should move away from the high pressure of your room to the low pressure of the work shop identifying areas of air movement. it could just be a rare weather event, maybe seasonal window opening patterns, its weird you just noticed.

>>2979342Have you seen the average Americans? Too bad they don't have a beautiful place like the Moscow metro to go visit, they're surrounded by filth and ugliness
>>2972573>Now show the buildings>>2979342>average russian houseThankfully it's hardly an "average" house. Early commies wanted to build beautiful ornamental buildings, but the USSR didn't exist in a vacuum. After WWII they were completely devastated and needed to rebuild quickly and house millions of people moving from villages to new cities to work in industry instead of farming. Panel blocks achieved just that, even if they are ugly, and they were never intended to last until the present day either. For what its worth they actually placed a lot of thought on interior design, and had a sense of style. I never understood the need for knee-jerk reactions like this when the USSR doesn't exist anymore, we can be objective about what they did wrong and what they did right.
>>2979544>Panel blocks achieved just that, even if they are ugly, and they were never intended to last until the present day either.That's kind of the entire problem, though. Outside of fossil fuels, they have nothing to offer the rest of the world, and the post-Soviet government is a Kleptocracy that couldn't even maintain its own rules meant to prevent a forever-king like Putin. They have been running on fumes in military development as well, with the only two true post-Soviet projects (Su-57 Felon and T14 Armata) being not just propaganda pieces massively overblowing their quality, they can't even build them in meaningful numbers.
I have 15 doors and a full kitchen to repaint as a short term fix till I replace the whole kitchen and potentially till I replace the doors also with something more modern.They're currently varnished pine.Can I just prime and paint or do I have to sand absolutely everything first?Some of the kitchen cabinets are painted so I figured I might have to sand them but not sure about the doors and it'd save me a lot of time and hassle if I didn't have to sand the doors also.
>>2979820Fuck. That's going to take me ages lol
>>2979821They make chemical stripper, way faster just costs more
>>2979822I'll look into it. Thank you
>>2979819Yes but not endlessly. You don’t have to remove all varnish just get it a consistent 180 grit surface fat and dust free, use correct primer if you know what the varnish is else shellac primer works on almost anything. If old varnish and new paint are both acrylic then just sand it 1-2 passes directly with 180 and youre fine
>>2979819Why bother if you are going to replace them? This is woman-tier.

What do you think of a stove designed like this? I have a bunch of round pipes of different diameter and I want to make a stove for my workshop
I installed this wood stove recently and bought a wood splitter and fiskars axe, I enjoy having secondary and tertiary sources of heat and it's quite fun to chop wood all day long I made the hearth and painted and restored the stove, it was a fun little project
>>2979627Looks efficient but difficult to clean. Maybe consider having another air intake under the grating.
