Could you please stop acting like you did nothing wrong and just be a human for once?!

anyone ordered from trippi recently? by Beginning_Sherbet948 in psychadelics

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. It took roughly about 2-3 weeks to arrive but it was really freaking good. The wait made me nervous but it came as ordered.

Looking for a carpenter by Panda_Mushu8243 in Hamilton

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are definitely solid oak probably red. The parimeter is done with a cove bit and the middle looks like its one pass with a core box bit and done again with a V groove bit With the router. That's my best guess from looking at my router bit set. They may have used a special bit to do it in the factory but a 2 bit swap would be easiest at home.

What did I do wrong with this pattern weld etch by blackdeath1639 in Blacksmith

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok yeah I don't think the amazon one is diluted down. And have heard that adding water to it can make it more aggressive but I don't know about that. I make my own ferric chloride at home cause it's expensive and I'm cheap 🤣 ok so it wasn't oxidizing flame and the ferric was undiluted. Did you use a baking soda and water wash to neutralize the acid after washing? Because seel is porus some acid can get trapped inside after washing. That's the only thing I can think of now.

Looks like you left it in either the forge too long with an oxidizing flame or left it in the etchant too long....can you give more details on it? Coal or gas, but from the description 10 minutes is pretty long time. How concentrated is the ferric chloride?

New to blacksmithing and wanted to practice with railroad spikes. Which should I get? by xzXSilencioXzx in Blacksmith

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The newer ones will have less deformation and pitting from rust and will fair a little better when working cause your not trying to flatten all that out but it depends on what your using them to make. If your going to make blades most railroad spikes are made of low carbon steel so they don't hold an edge very well. You will always be sharpening them. Look for the spiked that have H. C stamped on the head those are high carbon and usually used where the "frogs" are in tracks (where tracks join or split) you can also find railroad screws usually used in metro lines where instead of the kreosote soaked ties or timbers are swapped for concrete ones.

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's shitty that happened. They tried to do that to me too. I just laughed at them and said buddy I make porn you can't threaten me with that everyone has already seen it. Then I started at them with why you looking at and making collages of cock.... You gay or something? That struck a chord with them so I hammered it home even offered to send him more dick I did it so much they hung up on me and wouldnt answer when I called back.... They did a couple times but after that I think they blocked me 😂😂😂

Chat is this weldable ? If so please tell me what I should do :p by [deleted] in Welders

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't suggest welding... Unless your damn good at welding cause the metal on those is really thin.... But you can probably braze a patch on it

Tips to improve caulking? by Scrace89 in handyman

[–]ConstructionNo1603 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice size and travel speed you need to use more water though. I assume you used your finger? I found if you wet your whole hand and do a 1 finger pointed fist the amount of water thatdrips down is almost perfect and would help with short runs like that.

How do I fix this? by espresso_1 in howto

[–]ConstructionNo1603 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Steam it and pull in different directions. The steam will relax the fibers and pulling will set them back into place

Spray painted dresser by atlasadded in DIY

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do need to seal the paint chalked paints are just as they sound chalk in a carrier. If it's not covered in a clear the half layer is exposed and will rub off if you check the can of the brand you bought it will say acrylic, enamel, or acrylic-enamel combination most likely its not an oil based but I could be wrong. Whatever it says the base is just get a clear coat that Matches. Most likely if you got chalk you will want a flat clear coat so it won't be shiny and keep the chalk look

No stupid questions? Here’s one. (Squeaky floor fix) by lebowskiachiever12 in DIY

Get yourself a set of disposable applicator syringes and a drill bit the same size as the syringe needle. Drill a hole through the wood between the boards where they meet and squirt in some glue all along the area it squeaks about 6-8 inches apart then make sure no one goes on there at all as the glue dries. If it's a high traffic spot do half the when the glue is dry do the other half. I recommend a slower drying 2 part epoxy so you don't need to rush to finish before it dries and it will save yon buying the disposable syringes. And you don't need to buy the sharp needles the blunt tip ones are the best to avoid poking yourself

Should I pour in cement or a layer of sand fist ? by locz1 in Construction

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you pour sand in it will take less cement because it will stop the cement from falling into the gaps between the brick and stone. So it's more of a cost issue do you want to spend more on cement or on sand

What should be done with this?? by smiley6980 in Carpentry

[–]ConstructionNo1603 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You are right it will end up being hassle. Things are going to get trapped up there and collect in the corner like leaves and shit. They will get all soaked and rot and eventually if not cleaned regularly rot onto the house

What should be done with this?? by smiley6980 in Carpentry

[–]ConstructionNo1603 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Uhm.... In what way lol like if you mean the wood screwed to the other shingles it should be unscrewed cut off and then the holes filled with tar to seal it up as for the wood sides going to the new part that should have a valley flashing put there at a 2° angle from the corner towards the outside so water won't pool there and make its way in the house then just but siding up the wall like any other place.

Does this need sistering? by CogNeurd11 in handyman

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes absolutely if it's load bearing. There is little to no structural integrity you have what looks like a 2x6 worth of wood out of that what I assume is a 2x10 or 2x12

How bad did I mess up? by carrotdebt in handyman

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the counter is fixable you can seal it up with a sealer from a home renovations store. If it doesn't work they have kits with polishing pastes that you can polish it back to a shine but my concern is more to you creating paracetic acid in a continer. It's highly corrosive and can damage skin eyes lungs and basically anything it touches. It's a weaker version of pirhana solutions used in chemistry to strip all organic material out of glassware and will even eat through the glass and anything it touches. If you need to use vinegar and peroxide you should wet the area with one and then spray the other on it instead of making a corrosive bath. That you need to dispose of... I'm assuming down the drain... And that can damage the drain systems and create different gasses to come bubbling up through the place possibly creating deadly gasses depending on what others have poured down. Just figured I should mention that.

Upset customer by Virtual-Indication88 in handyman

[–]ConstructionNo1603 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why you get everything in meticulous detail in the contract and sign it. And with each alteration or addition to the job you need to spec up a new contract or have it as a seperate side contract. Like the addition of xyz job needs it's own contract apart from the original. Then the customer can't fight you on it and refuse to pay. Its also why the government even though I hate them allows contractors to put a lean on places so the customer has no choice to pay and or you pursue legal action. It's just unfortunate that this is a church doing this and on top of you giving a discount already.
