/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1495024

what this guy said

tits and gtfo

squeeze the threads in a vise you stupid nigger lover

just hold the fucking thing straight and dont over-do it

the more you sharpen it the more you round (dull) it

hold at a bit under a 45 degree angle and swipe, flip over, swipe, check edge

usually i do this about 3 times

im assuming you mean honing and not actually sharpening, which is a little more involved

theres some things you can chinkshit
out on, and some things you cant

buying all brand new tools at home depot is a lel tier meme, i almost never buy brand new tools because either they're a) fucking trash, or b) too stupidly expensive

do yourselves a favor and start buying used quality tools

snap on used on ebay will cost you less in the long run

i got a blue point 3/4 impact off ebay the guy said was just for parts, i took it apart and fixed it without spending another cent

the ball bearing was just getting stuck on a sharp edge, as the start-up torque is too low to budge the ball bearing over the ridge. die grinded that ridge down smooth on both sides and shes good as new

i break dozer tracks stump pans grader tires you name it all day with that puppy

its a left hand thread shit-dip

dont heat pipe fittings jesus christ grow a pair and use a snipe

voltage drop through all those fucked up connections

redo those right from their start and retest

but really buy a new one, you measured it for a reason

try starting your car with your cheapo key, while holding the real one close

once it starts, get rid of the real key

if it stays running, then the solution is easy, find the relay that closes when that key is near, cut the one control
wire that supplys the 12v with key near, and just plumb in straight 12v off your igniton key on --> start momentary post.

the guy at the auto store is retarded

at least make sure theres 2 filaments in your new bulb

>>1478800

not gonna break a 2 foot long piece of 1" sch40

have you tried not being a massive faggot, they might understand then

what the faggot is this queer trash

what i do in a situation like this is just run new wires

fuck tracing wiring waste of time

run new wires right from your switch back, ground each light seperately to the frame to stop backfeeding.

but in this case OP you put a single filament bulb in place of a dual filament bulb

go back and buy the proper bulb guy

you guys think about your tools way too much

just use em and get the job done it dont matter what the tooth count of your taiwanese fuck stick is

shorter ratchets are better because you can fit in tight spots and you can always go cut a chunk of pipe for a snipe when you need more jam

phase converter probably not worth

what you need is either an old treadmill to use for parts (motor, speed control) or a VFD

you can use a VFD to convert single to three phase but you need to double the rating of the motor

ie: want to run 3hp 3 phase motor on single phase, need 6hp vfd

they dont like you doing it but it can be done

ebay has motors/vfd combo deals always

just use the fucking controller the way it is

to answer your question

>would it be possible to build something like pic related for ~20k or less

absofuckinglutely not

200k? maybe

me/my father built a house that he currently lives in

i think youre severly underestimating the amount of work it takes

it took about 6 years working when the weather was at least above 0, (may - sept). after working 8 hours a day, go home and build house for another 4-5 then go to bed, rinse repeat, work all day weekends

he worked at a big mill, and every day for a little while he took home 'core spinouts' from the lathe

about 14 inches diameter nice wood, he took them home and stacked em, let em dry 2-3 years

in that time we built a chainsaw sawmill, we're bother welders and heavy duty mechanics we do this kind of shit for fun anyways

so now we could shape the logs and make them flat on 3 sides to be able to bolt them together into panels

the house itself is 2 stories, living room, kitchen somewhat joined. bathroom beside kitchen, 2 rooms upstairs in the loft, hardwood flooring, the works.

it might not sound like much, but its retarded intensive. foundation, sewer, building inspectors, electrical, plumbing, power, water, heat, roofing, painting/staining, windows, drive way, stairs, all the little finishing touches

we're still not done its been like 8 years since he finally moved in.

its not something you do in one summer, its something thats ongoing, costs a fuck of a lot more money than you think. whatever your budget is, double it at least by the time youre done.

is it satisfying? yea i dont know, not really. your wife would probably leave you before you finish as she'll have given up way early

into a creek shit for brains read the thread

anyways OP the only way is to either drainage digging, or trash pumps

any other shit is meme tier waste of time/money
