You don't use glue and screws on your subfloor?

>>848406
have you ever had to remove a subfloor with liquid nail?

>>848407
You ever had to step on a subfloor that squeaks because the tards that put it in didn't do it right?

>>848392
>not using liquid nails and nails on stair tread

I thought using liquid nails got rid of the creaking noise when you use the stairs?

>>848405

Okay, that's just the work of a maniacal genius. You've got to appreciate that level of evil.

>>848690
this is bad and you should feel bad.

>>848748
nope. boards squeak because they dont sit flush. this might fix the problem, probably only fix it for a little while. the fix is to install a shim to fill the gap between the frame underneath and the board and then secure those with liquid nails and screws.

you know what grinds my gears? nails in floor boards. they always come loose over time.

Reminds me of Iwo Jima.

Does anyone have a picture of the gun one anon built that fired .22lr?

The .22lr was held in a pipe by a sabot made from a potato and the firing pen was attached to a hammer hanging from a paint roller.

The whole thing was held together by what looked to be a erector set or a car jack, and was fired by pulling the hammer back and letting go.

Pathetic.
I work construction for a living and yes, a glued subfloor sucks ass to remove, but it's done for a reason you fat cucks.

From what I can tell, that's just an LPF RC circuit.

So what? you're taking the "noise" out of the system?
and so you save gas?

Aren't you just continuously draining your battery?

>>848401

>>849686
It would appear to be simply filtering minor spikes from VSS to GND.
That just drains the battery.
If draining the battery ensures better vehicle performance, then sure, why not?

It's called bullshit garbage that comes in from ching chong land. Yes, someone could complain about it or a consumer protection agency could start some beef, but good luck tracing it back to the gook that produced it and odds are they only sell it in one spot for a few weeks anyway. Plenty of "dollar store" type outfits that just buy whatever dumps out of a Conex from China and peddle it until it's gone.

>>849775

>>849582
Fuck me, I like electronics so I barely work with such heavy duty tools but how can somebody have such blatant disregard for skilled engineering and shit

christ I think that's got me more mad than anything I see on 4chan normally and I'm a bleeding heart sandal wearing libtard

>>849898
what was your intention? and what exactly did you use?

>>849905
4m bar feed cnc lathe.

>>849789
My sides are higher than that shuttle. Holy shit

>>849909

wanted to remove the black coating and after I scuffed it up a little I figured I'd just try to put a uniform "brushed" look on it, obviously didn't turn out well. Wrecked the temper too, that knife is collecting dust in some drawer now. I don't remember the exact specs of the tools, it was just a rotary tool and some coarse grit wheels.

>>849582
Pitiful. Somebody reading this thread of all places could of snagged this for, "$385.00 from an online auction...with a taper turning attachment...10" 3-jaw chuck"
Capitalism at it's worst.

>>849686
It's got an led in it. From what it looks like to me, it's a simple led driver, but they split the current limiting resistor in to two resistors. I guess to make it look more complex than it really is.

>>849682
you could very easily show it doesn't work in a controlled test however that wouldn't prove it would never work.

>>849686
>>849704
there is no way a shitty capacitor in the cigarette lighter will do a better job of filtering out all the high frequency noise and spikes from the spark drivers than the filtering circuits already in the ecu.

the load on the battery from that led is probably so insignificant it can be ignored.

>>849789
its not funny that they ruin everything on purpose.
the rocket would have expended its fuel, why the explosion? did they plant explosives to simulate an explosive crash? they either would have to predict where is would land or they landed it then crashed it? or built 2?
its like when they set the caravan train on fire, it was just stupid and painfully obviously fake it ruins it.

>>849910
i don't get it

>>849930
page 4 where the author acknowledges butthurt and just laughs it off is great.

>>849939
resistors are very small and 12v supply for a single led is a large voltage drop to accommodate, likely its cheaper to use two separate low-watt resistors than one resistor with high enough wattage to not start a fire.

>>849943
I'm pretty sure the Reliant Shuttle was a accident.

Even after you burn all of the fuel for a liquid engine, some fuel actually remains in the tanks.
The turbo pump or pressure system just can't wring out the last drops fast enough to keep the engines going.
The explosive bolts failing to separate is possible.

At any rate, yeah! I rustled your jimmies!

>>849943

No, it was confirmed they spliced in footage of an explosion. You can tell anyway because the scenery changes.

They used solid rockets. Not even the top gear team would have been able to afford liquid rockets.

>>848402
i wonder if i went to a convention with a replica of the meglinator whether anyone would recognize it

>>849951
i'm sorry anon, i really hate things like this i just found the way he posted the complaint without even a rebuttal interesting.
The last thing i would want to do is encourage such behaviour.

>>849950
>>849966
ok well i got a copy of the video and went through frame by frame and yes it look suspicious at normal speed but its painfully obvious if you slow it down its just spliced in.

so i guess if i give them the benefit of the doubt then they maybe didn't mean to fuck up and just added in an explosion later on.

but its suspicious they got a perfect separation for the boosters and nothing at all for the shuttle.

also that guy with the remote control fuck off there is no way he will control it from that far away and there is no obvious linkages to the fins or anything.

>>849824

>.22 round
>he died
possible, not plausible.

>>850197
Mythbusters did an ep on this. Basically they said that it was totally plausible to cook off 22s if you used them as fuses, but without a barrel, they'd do little more than bruises

>>849688
I remember that, he stole a generator or something because he didn't pay his bills.

>>848779

>>849954
Is it impossible to replace the raceways or something?

>>850208
That's a dope rhyme, yo.

>>850239
I can't stand Norm. He has to touch and handle everything, the way he pronounces 'accurate' and 'figure', and he always looks really fucking greasy.

>>850196
SECURITY PHILIPS.

Speaking from a integrity standpoint of the screwdriver, wouldn't that have to have a blunt, non-tapered tip? Because a tapered point with a hole in the center of it could possibly break if abused for too long turning those kinds of screws.

>>850330
I thought the same thing when I first saw a picture of the driver, the tips on security Phillips look very pointy and fragile

I don't wear safety goggles when using power tools except when I'm cutting metal.

>>850339
ok

>>850324
Will is worse. Shit opinions, constantly interrupts people, and just as greasy. At least Norm lets people talk.

>>850347
Norm is the guy who just wants the end product. He's interested in cool shit, but just wants the cool shit, not bothered with the whole A-B of garage kits.

He's also quiet as fuck. Watch a Still Untitled, he just awkwardly sits in the middle for 90% of it.

Will, he's got kids, likes to make shit, and is a tech geek, but not a comic nerd.

>>849999
Probably typical North American split-phase with 2 hots and a neutral. For 3-phase you'd have three hots and a neutral (unless all your loads off that panel were balanced 3-phase and then you wouldn't need the neutral)

>>850354
I do watch them. Will and Adam talk over him when he does say anything.

>>850363

Got ya. thanks.

>>850371
i've listened to the podcast for a bit but only watched one recently, Norm looks so fucking disinterested at all times there.

>>850401
I think they need to get some better representation/hosts in for Tested because Will and Norm both have some serious sticking points that can be seen in some of their videos.

Will:
>very pessimistic and dismissive of peoples work
>too opinionated/over-confident
>constantly talks over people

Norm:
>meek presenting skills; can't flow or transition off script when talking/interviewing people
>attempts to clarify things too often while interviewing and showing his lack of knowledge on the subject
>looks unsure and uncomfortable while on camera too often

All that aside though, I feel like Tested is diving too deep into sponsored content. That boring "RC racing spider" series of 3 minute videos and the 1 week builds where you need to join a premium membership just to view Will and Norm fumble around with a project while making labored small talk with someone else.

Same shit happened with Stan Winston School videos. Used to see some cool, behind the scenes shit and builds for film, but now they're all locked behind some pay-wall. I may think that shit is cool, but I'm not going to pay $20 a month or whatever to hear some anti-social jag-off describe how he glued some PVC pipes together.

they would have to be re-machined (requiring a huge machine) and then all the hardware that goes on the lathe would need to be re-done for that. Which isn't at all worth it when you ould just get a new one.

>>849954
>>850253
>>850621
Also consider that he bought it for barely above scrap value. If it was usable it wouldn't have sold for $385.

I actually have a drill saw that works, but its a whole lot more mean looking than the ones you usually see, its got some really gnarly teeth on it and its a bitch to controll, but it can actually cut a 2x4 in half pretty easilly if attached to a powerfull drill

>>850687
that is either some serious nigger rigging, or some serious macgyverism

>>850930
The problem with drill saws is that drills arent built to take sideways loads, and will cause the bearings to wear out prematurely.

>>850975
I actually wound a transformer with a friend a long time ago. We took our time, hooked the core up to a jig that would rotate it with a small motor and bicycle tire, meticulously kept the 18AWG windings tight and straight, and put mylar sheets between each layer. It took us about 2 weeks at roughly 8 hours per day. The thing was around 120 lbs when we finished and it converted 120vac to ~30,000vac. We connected it to our tesla coil with a 5' tall secondary coil and we got around 4-5' arcs out of the top.

When I see this picture, I can only think one thing. Triggered.

In Norm's defense, I had a very strong 'what the fuck' moment when Frank said he was going to just use clear-coat instead of a mold release.

>>851158
exactly right. I run in to this all the time. Unfortunately the homeowner/company that owns the building thinks just putting a new panel in will fix everything.......then call back asking why there's still problems due to bad wiring.

It does work that way.
If you purchase item from Billy.
You have a contract with Billy to provide item to you in exchange for payment.
Billy accepts payment, and delivers knock-off fake.
device does not work as Billy stated.
sue Billy
get money refunded plus attorney fees.

If Billy feels he got screwed he can in turn sue his supplier, but you cannot sue his supplier, as you had no contract with them.

when biwwy china, you no sue biwwy

How does this solve the 50Hz->60Hz problem?

>>851914
>delivers knock-off fake.

That isn't a "knock-off fake" though. It's a plastic case with two resistors, a capacitor and an LED in it. There's no magic set of electronic components that, when plugged into your lighter socket, will do what is claimed in that advert.

So no, your imaginary scenario where the poor person advertising their revolutionary energy saving device got ripped off by the Chinese is just that: imaginary.

>>851921
>50Hz->60Hz problem

Unless it's a cheap clock that uses the line frequency as an oscillator...what problem?

Next time, use coarse wet sandpaper, then follow up with fine wet sandpaper. It takes a fair amount of elbow grease, and you'll probably have to resharpen it, but as long as you're not an idiot, you won't ruin the profile or the temper.

it "works" on the principle that any time an inductive load is switched off, a large spike will be introduced into the line. Most large motors already deal with this right at the motor.

But the product is indeed a scam.

One of the very, very, very, very earliest articles of case law WRT the very idea of "consumers" established that you do, in fact, have standing to sue past the middle-man.

That's generally solved by American portable appliances being re-packaged versions of things designed for Rest of the Whole Entire World.

Because most electronics is designed for Rest of the Whole Entire World, it works fine on 220v, as is standard in Rest of the Whole Entire World.

>>852030
>as is standard in Rest of the Whole Entire World.

a 60hz clock runs a little slow on your rest of the world 50Hz power

>>852026
bravo, old chap. one can sue at will. sue anyone for any reason, or no reason at all, at any time.

The point was, the middleman is not exempt.

Buy used car from Jerry. "Like new condition"
Get car. Has no engine in car.
Jerry says "Hey sue Ford" I dindu nuffin

>>852030
>Rest of the Whole Entire World, it works fine on 220v
So the US has taken over the entirety of North America, half of South America and Japan, as well as a few other areas? Neat.

>most electronics
Most electronics are DC. So many use external power converters its trivial to 'convert' them to use one type of voltage or another. You just change out the power brick. Often times its not even permanently attached for this very reason.

Remember though that electromechanical devices and electronic devices are not the same thing. A modern computer or stereo is electronic while a standard AC induction motor is not.

Also no pic. But mister quick electrical in Indianapolis. .......Fuck them. 50% of my service calls are fixing there fuck ups. They charged a guy 550$ to put a duplex in a garage for a plug in steam room. They put a cut in box right under the panel and ran a 12/2 to a single pole 20amp breaker, with a 15 amp plug......the steamer pulled 17.5 amps. Melted the plug all to hell before the breaker tripped.

I always immediately tell people about this and offer to install a proper wall outlet for them for however many sockets they need.

I once saw a security slotted screw in an old coffee maker I was scavenging electronics from.
No, not one of those one-directional ones you see holding bathroom stalls together, a slotted screw that looked like someone put a big old gob of solder in the center and sanded it flush. Looked kinda like those European outlets with the two prongs.

Almost cut a slot in one of my screwdrivers to unscrew those, then realized how retarded that was and cut the plastic out around the screws since they were inset and I couldn't reach them with the dremel.

>>852129
Many don't. Ask anyone that has traveled and taken an alarm clock with them to a country that uses a different hertz then their own. A clock made in the USA will lost 10 minutes every hour if you use it in England, even with a converter. Similarly European made clocks will run fast on USA power systems.

>>852173
protip: it's an actual screw format.
possibly you just got one with a defective screw.
I buy large packs of screws and there are always a few where the mold didnt take and there is an unusable head.

Couldn't you take the time to hire a couple decent lads with half a brain about them, take a couple weeks during the winter or whenever you're on a slowdown to run through all the basics yourself, make sure they're installing to nearabout your standard of work and keep them on?

>>849096

I assume the drill that these attachments are made for has been designed with this in mind?

Anyhow, I raise you a kit that lets you screw the circular saw kit to the bottom of your workmate, to turn your drill into a table saw.

"tuba four"

For whoever is knocking the fuel shark I've actually done road tests on these things.

Out here in Cali where gas is super fucking expensive I bough two fuel sharks an took a road trip. I drove up Mt. Diablo road without the fuel shark then drove back with the fuel shark in. Turned around and drove up without it and drove back down with it.

Each time the fuel shark was in I saved on gas mileage regardless of which one I used.

There's no water reuse, the washing machine is clearly plumbed seperately to the toilet.

Anyway, that's not the real horror of the picture.

That washing machine is too heavy for one man to have lifted so high onto the supports. He asked someone to help him, /and that person agreed/

This would be fine, as you arent putting as much of a sideways load onto your drill. The saw would be doing all the cutting, not you pushing the saw into the wood to force it to cut.

I was a regular on the site from it's inception, it's just gotten worse. Will's ego has increased probably ten fold. I used to be a fan of the podcast, but once Gary Whitta stopped being a regular, Will's snobbery got worse, and Norm was too busy like looking at his phone. That whole site, i don't even know how it functions, they've totally wasted the very solid and close community they had with the forums becoming never ending spam shit. Having said that, the site is nothing without either of them, they can work, but the direction they're going in is absolutely horrendous.
