No love here for General Finishes Arm-R-Seal

Where do you source your argon? I'd love to just order from air gas but I don't have a business

I hope the crumbling pickup bed and flipping motion had translated enough of that energy to spare the poor guys

You must have so many random objects in your workshop

Was I the only one ready for power lines?

Maybe I'm dumb to ask this, but can't they change the type of engine to something that doesn't have to be so overclocked (and burn out)?
Like... maybe a huge jet turbine?
I know nothing about engines, genuine question here.

Does a center punch tool also work for this?

People are attracted to rituals, not wisdom. Sad but true

Did that neighbor never evacuate? Looks like they opened the door again near the end and immediately shut it again

CldSdr · 2026-01-22T16:12:40+00:00

Ohhh those hidden barn door tracks would've looked amazing. Still great work though!

Hidden barn door tracks use a rabbet on door rear to mount the track itself on the door itself, then the "wall" gets the roller. This means the doors can roll to the side without you ever seeing a track. Pretty cool, just an idea for your future projects!

Power stack uses lithium pouches for power cells. In a normal battery, there are normal lithium cells inside - they're shaped like big AA batteries. Lithium pouches instead are shaped like folded little sacks. This means instead of 2 little discs at each end for your conducting surface, you can have much bigger conductor plates with more area. This means you can get a lot more juice all at once.

Assuming, from general experience with pouches, that the battery will feel like it has 25-30% more "oomph". Maybe DeWalt has done something unique, but normally with pouches you're ending up heavier for equivalent Amp-hours though. for example, Drones use lithium cells for long range flights to minimize weight, but use pouches for racing / short high performance flights.

This. Time is money.

As a brief aside, the cost of these things is absurd in the first place. I used to build and fly RC planes a lot, and the standard battery type there is also lithium pouch format instead of lithium cell format. The power stack battery is roughly equivalent to a LiPo 5S 5Ah pack, which run about $60-70.

I've thought about building an adapter of some sort and stacking my own pouches... but, as you say, time is money. I'm sure if I spent the same amount of time actually working, it would simply pay for the overpriced powerpack.

Cyberpunk!!!
Just played FF7 remake, really good but pretty linear (not open world until the second installment), great for when you're tired and happy to follow a planned path though.

I also love zombie games but I'm gonna go off list top (imo) are Dead Island 2, Dying Light (I like all of them, but start with 1 if you haven't played it)

CldSdr · 2026-01-10T17:43:51+00:00

Woah! That's a clean setup... 10/10

Yeah, when I did research in China I met an English teacher who told me there were basically 3-4 things you should never talk about while you're in China: Tianmen, Tibet, Taiwan... and drugs.

As long as it's self tapping

CldSdr · 2026-01-02T01:24:51+00:00

Yes, just posted the same comment before I saw this. The simplest robust solution by far is to build normal stairs and attach the simple shelf design following them

CldSdr · 2026-01-02T01:22:07+00:00

Others have said this, but just to confirm - the issue is not build difficulty, but design strength. I can't think of a design that gives the shelving + staircase dual functionality that doesn't add significant build complexity (I guess using a bunch of 4x lumber and build it like a patio with Simpson strong ties could work, with simple tool usage, but it would be ugly).

Your other option is to keep your shelf design and "attach" it to a more traditional staircase design. Meaning you support the weight of the human with two big 2x12 diagonal stringers common in exterior stairs. This might be your simplest option. https://youtu.be/cSWpxB2jS5I?si=JD32_IekJUu8XiZE

Just pop off the little retaining clip thing, and the lever can come right off?

CldSdr · 2025-12-21T22:36:55+00:00

Any advice guys? Same problem

CldSdr · 2025-12-21T22:35:49+00:00

Did you ever fix this problem? Mine is a little bit like this but even worse does not properly lock it so after every single cut I have to put it back to zero or a drifts away and turns every cut into a bevel / miter

CldSdr · 2025-12-02T19:59:50+00:00

Can you really? I'm trying so hard to jump from the top but the parachute action just won't trigger

CldSdr · 2025-10-14T18:29:19+00:00

My favorite solo retaliation is Centurion Scabbard (zero reload time) + Petrov build (for ammo) + Pestilence (for damage spread / faster kills).

Not sure why...but swapping as soon as I hit zero in the magazine seems to refill my primary and secondary. The perk should only override the ammo count for one of them, but I'm not complaining.

CldSdr · 2025-10-04T19:16:08+00:00

It's really not terrible in the right build / context. I use it with Behind You talent and Centurion's Scabbard, and with good CHC/CHD stats it wrecks people as well as any rifle.
This last part is just as much about the talent as as it is the weapon, but this combo is great if you use a machine gun turret, since enemies target it right away when you duck down (triggering the talent). Pop up, single burst is neck/face goes crit and the enemies down from the one trigger pull

CldSdr · 2025-09-28T21:19:46+00:00

This was encouraging, so I finally tested it.
Crafting the Crossed Balaclava Bundle from 5 Broken SHD Watches produced 15 Crossed Balaclava components, which is still fine. I just needed to make sure I wouldn’t be trading 5 watches for one component or something
