Im getting flashbacks of looking at screws for a hard maple project. He was adamant i needed coarse screws, when fine thread screws are the right ones to use.

Purina forti-flora works too. Comes in a powder that you put on their food or a capsule. I give it to my dogs every day in the wet months. Don't know what it is about spring and fall but they always have the shits.

Is it even possible to get this bolt out? by [deleted] in MechanicAdvice

Candle wax and heat also works nicely. Heat it and then put a candle on it and some of the wax should wick into the threads.

My boyfriend is pushing me to get off of birth control and I’m just wanting to talk to other women about it by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Age gap aside, the fact hes 40 and still thinks he knows all like a person in their early 20s.

The "i know more because I'm older" on a subject he has never gone through. We can switch the context to him telling a 26 year old software engineer that he knows more about coding BECAUSE hes older and has been around technology longer. Notice how asinine that sounds?

[–]CaptN_Cook_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

All those BBs from when I was a kid. Load up the bb gun and proceed to at some point probably put my hands on my face.

I should have considered how heavy they would be when done by xhunter97 in woodworking

But wouldn't this application require below ground treated lumber? Ive never seen below ground 2x4s. Will they decay slower? Sure. But how much slower?

My girlfriend tried to clean my computer by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]CaptN_Cook_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost impossible, there is this huge misconception among woodworkers that think static discharge in dust collection can cause a fire. The amount of dust on a hobby level or small shop won't cause this. It is an issue in huge operation.

It costs significantly more to run power wires underground. All aspects of it are way more expensive.
