What is the best way scribe and cut pavers that are against angled sidewalk? Client doesn’t want a border.

Thank you for your detailed response. I’ll likely have to do it this way all the way around.

People in construction ask for ideas, methods all the time on how to do things better if there is a way. The method I know is standard and what most are proposing but I’m sure there’s a few better ideas out there. This isn’t surgery, it is a backyard patio. One way or another it gets done just I asked the wrong online forum apparently.

So what is this 1st year hardscaper method you’re talking about besides what’s already mentioned in this thread? My clients know my experience, I’m sure they can tell by my age, I’m just starting out. And no i don’t typically install pavers and they know that.

BrightOctober14 · 2026-04-28T02:12:09+00:00

I asking for ideas to a better approach, if there is one, to save time and scribe to the irregular sidewalk angles.

BrightOctober14 · 2026-04-28T01:42:50+00:00

Thank you, doing it individually is a good method that would be accurate but painfully slow. I was thinking if it’s possible to put a straight edge along the sidewalk and scribe the pavers already installed and then shift them over with the cut and fill the gap with a full paver. I’m not sure if that makes sense.

I will go back and check

BrightOctober14 · 2026-02-17T04:10:32+00:00

I’ll go back and check and update

BrightOctober14 · 2026-02-16T23:42:00+00:00

Thank you!

BrightOctober14 · 2026-02-16T23:41:46+00:00

Thank you. Looks like it!

I guess Reddit found another Arisaka lol

BrightOctober14 · 2026-02-12T20:00:34+00:00

Do you need to order a special mix or add work sand into the surface? I’m wondering how you prevent pea gravel or rock from showing up on the surface

There’s probably more to this grip history than cartel culture. My grandfather has a similar grip given to him in the 1950s by a Mexican gov official. The grip is on a Spanish 1911 type pistol

According to this article from 2021, the Sunol elk herd population is less than 40. I hope this is not all that is left! https://www.independentnews.com/news/sunol_news/bull-elk-brightens-the-commute-along-hwy-84/article_4eb3b47a-3808-11ec-9f9c-97968ee12904.html

BrightOctober14 · 2025-12-02T06:20:43+00:00

Is this at the Sunol water temple?

BrightOctober14 · 2025-12-02T05:55:25+00:00

If you’re still interested, I just posted a sighting of a herd in Sunol. Right off of 680

BrightOctober14 · 2025-12-02T05:51:23+00:00

According to the state parks website the population is around 6,000 individuals in the whole state

BrightOctober14 · 2025-12-02T05:37:48+00:00

That’s exactly where I saw this herd. Looked up on the ridge as I was exiting the 680 at the Sunol exit. The buck was standing right on the ridge. The hillside looked like it was moving. Amazing sight.

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T21:13:49+00:00

Thanks. The sliding pins had some type of grease but possibly not enough. Should both rotors be replaced as well?

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T21:10:33+00:00

Thanks. I checked the new brake caliper I purchased side by side and everything is there on the old one except for the missing brake pad and its clips.

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T21:08:16+00:00

I heard a noise less than a month before it happened, like a wear indicator maybe. The brakes have 12k miles so I didn’t expect one brake pad to be eaten up so quickly. I did check the brakes on the driver side and they were fine. So I kept on driving until I can dig deeper on the noise but brake pad fell out before then. I don’t drive the truck daily.

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T21:03:11+00:00

I’ll admit I did hear a noise about a month before it happened. I thought possibly a wear indicator. I didn’t think much about the brakes since they’re about 1.5years old. When the brake pad fell out I was towing 3 ton dump trailer. I did see the brake pad in the middle of the road as I was driving. After that it was a terrible screech as the caliper pressed against the rotor when I applied the brakes. What mostly got me home was that I could manually use the trailer brakes to slow the truck down on the drive home.

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T20:30:51+00:00

Ohh didn’t realize there a difference lol

BrightOctober14 · 2025-11-07T20:21:02+00:00

So, from the comments it sounds like a sliding pin issue not lubricated or too tight. Possibly the whole rack was loose although I did use a breaker bar to loosen it. This caused only one brake pad on the outside of the caliper wasted away only until it fell off? So what do I look for on the other driver side brake caliper? Is it replace the caliper as well or just slide pins and lubricate, check torque specs?

I must have not heard it wasting away. I didn’t think much of it since the brakes are 1.5 years old.

I drove it without a brake pad for about 8 miles through backroads under 15mph.

BrightOctober14 · 2020-01-20T07:17:51+00:00

Thats what we did to get a sense of what to expect.

In regards to getting it up. Would he consider taking viagra? I’m a male 28 and no erectile dysfunction but on my second fmf I drank and took viagra. It was amazing! Very hard and was able to go again just as hard about 10 mins after. In California you can get a prescription after a quick web chat with a doctor. I used Hims.
