/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Ohm’s law and Kirchoff’s law. /ohm/ will maybe give you a good response, and then a dozen people calling you stupid and telling you to google it. So don’t take my advice, google it.

Do you own a multimeter?

Hey bby

They’re breaking away from that though. Quinn and Doyle pliers, Hercules and Bauer power tools, Ames meters, Pitt Pro ratchets...

I’m not sure what to think. So far they have kept the same cheap Chinesium on the same aisle as the new Taiwanesium, but it won’t be the same store if they stop making Chicago Electric.

This is how I desolder

Anyway the Hakkos are only like $100. That’s not too much. I’m still trying to decide whether to get that or drop about the same amount of money on one of the decently rated Chinesium ones with a hot air station.

Makes ya think about pic related

Ahh I see, the jaws are smaller. Not bad because that thing always looked like quite a big hunk of steel.

>>1517388
That’s the comfort grip. Those have been out for years. They also make an electricians version of most of their tools.

>>1517285
It’s excluded from the 20% off coupons so I thought it was too expensive.

+1. Time to start with a fresh slate.

I recently got one of the bigger ones, maybe 4” diameter magnet on a 3ft stick for when I drop shit on the floor. Saves a ton of time when I drop a nut or bolt.

Been there. Got one to start smoking a little bit. The strange part was the smoker was the 3rd lowest voltage of all the old batteries, like 0.2V while another battery reading >2.0V didn’t do shit when copper plated BBs went into it.

You’re gonna need at least 12-15CFM @ 90psi for it to work properly.

Oi vey she works! Lucky for me being incapable of building any wood structures square hasn’t hindered the performance of the lights.

I kinda want to find a couple small hinges and a latch to make a door on the front. With the door, I could jam the 120V AC cord and the 12V DC charger cord inside the box and open it up to grab whichever one is needed at the time.

Even the “Quiet” ones are pretty loud.

What are you trying to run off of it?

I wouldn’t mind the shop vac.

I’m sure the drill is straight, but those Home Depot deals are killer too. The Ridgid set was $199 with brushless tools and 2x 4.0Ah batteries, plus the choice of some of their good tools. Grabbed the Octane sawzall.

I already want to get some smaller batteries though. They sell 3.0Ah Octane sets which are bluetooth like that Milwaukee stuff and supposed to run the Octane tools like a raped ape. There was also a sale with 3x2.0Ah regular batteries for $77, but thah shit flew and they were out of stock of that 3pk within a couple days. Maybe I can grab another tool with 2x1.5’s for slightly more than the batteries themselves.

It’s called an Alabama Socket Set.

Anything you own that runs off AA, AAA, C, D, or 9V batteries- convert those fuckers to 18650s

Find somebody you don’t like

Get a couple friends and go to their house one night

Stick hundreds of spoons into the ground across their lawn.

They will be confused, then paranoid, then pissed off that they have to walk around their yard for hours plucking spoons out of the dirt.

>>1516256
Or Craigslist? But you gotta debate if it’s worth your time to sell one person a few sockets, another person a couple wrenches, some screwdrivers to a third. If it were me, I would put the whole lot on CL and the first person to give me anything close to a reasonable offer can have them.

If you want to donate them to the thrift store, might be worth calling up some local tech schools and ask if they will take a donation. Get a tax writeoff out of it.

They were never that expensive to begin with and they only switched production to Asia a few years ago so how much are you really expecting to get?

It’s the same thing with old fishing lures. Anon’s grandpa dies and he gets a tackle box full of crap from the 60s and 70s and thinks it is some sort of collectible. The problem is that everybody inherits their grandpa’s crap and tries to sell it. The stuff is outdated, and you can buy brand new stuff for so cheap that is more functional and less rusty so it wouldn’t be worth paying any real money for anon’s grandpa’s crap unless you get it for real cheap as a novelty.

Show me on the doll where the tripfag touched you?

And show me where there was samefagging by Bepis and Anon?

And I’ll say it again, you’re not as bright as you think. Of course 213 is going to show a “You”, read the fucking trip on 213. And if you haven’t noticed, not all “Anonymous” posts are from the same user, despite you replying to yourself on saltyposts a whole lot.

>>1516220
Now why would anybody do that?

Also what the fuck response is anon expecting when he asks “What should I build?”

>>1516211
A spice rack

>>1516209
>not so clever
What is the point of this? Are you trying to prove that the post claiming I was 1169 was absolutely retarded and written by an retard? Or are you claiming 1213 was me? Of course 1213 was me, it had my doggo in it and my twingi box and I think it had the trip too.

>the progressive liberal way of debate
>make claims and support it using a bunch of “evidence” which doesn’t support those claims at all
>if that fails, start name calling

>>1516170
You’re not as clever as you think you are.

>>1516162
Yeah you pretty much described my weekend.
