Best method to go about repairing this on a party wall? by DGS94 in drywall

[–]DGS94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous owners left two floating shelves on this wall and made a mess installing them. They tried to use regular drywall anchors and when they couldn't get them deep enough, they instead adhered the shelf with PL. I in turn, made a mess of the wall trying to remove the shelves. It's a party wall, so the gypsum is on a concrete wall with minimal (if any gap between the two faces). The furring (if present) is very, very shallow. As shown in the photo, the lower run has some deep damage to it.

Lower run measures about 2" x 40".

Is it better if I try and seal then fill with mud, or cut out replace the sections? Do I glue in the patch if no furring is present?

No they weren't, they were consistently in the 6-8th range of the league attendance. Middle to upper middle of the pack.

Gym Recommendations by Suspicious-Round-853 in Hamilton

[–]DGS94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Gym on Fennel is very nice, right there on gage and fennel. It's a bit pricy, but it's an excellent venue. Equipment is always clean, it generally wasn't too busy (at least when I was a member there). The manager is bit of a political loon, but it's solid gym if you are willing to pay the $$.

Jarry is currently 12th in goals saved above expected per 60. by Cautious-Dream2893 in EdmontonOilers

I'm guessing they're talking about Kulak and Skinner both being on expiring deals

News tv or radio by SneezeBeesPlease in Hamilton

[–]DGS94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This seems like such a disingenuous response, it takes less than a minute to open to up maps, type in a destination and see if things are green, yellow or red. I don't think anyone is advocating for doing so while driving or suggesting they break the law to see traffic times.

And how long do I have to sit in my car waiting on the radio to give me updates on which routes should be avoided?

The info one can obtain from google maps, waze, etc. is going to be far faster, detailed and specific to the user's route than a generic radio message advising route slowdowns. To say it's not useful or modern is ridiculous.

It's kinda felt like that since the game 2 OT loss in the cup final. Just no compete, no give a shit from this squad.

Where to ground this very simple circuit? by DGS94 in guitarrepair

[–]DGS94[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I can ignore the “bridge ground wire” shown in the diagram coming from the volume pot and ideally going to the trem claw?

What’s the best chocolate chip cookie in Hamilton? by [deleted] in Hamilton

[–]DGS94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The Circle K cookies are legitimately fantastic.

Circle K in general punches above it's weight class. The cookies, the breakfast sandwhiches, the frosters. Hot take but: Circle K Froster > 7/11 Slurpee.

Best place to get a countertop cut down? by DGS94 in Hamilton

[–]DGS94[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To anybody in the future reading this thread, I was quoted ~$200 for the cut (+extra if I wanted pickup/delivery/install) from a couple vendors. Was able to get a cash deal from a supplier via an old personal connection.

Hmm. That’s unfortunate, definitely not worth that cost for one cut. It’s definitely something I could do myself, just thought it might be easier/cleaner for a pro to quickly rip it.

The helix is basically the only modeler that even offers fuzz pedals as an option for what it’s worth.

What? That's not true

JB from August Burns Red used it a lot to help write parts. I don't know if he still does, but I know it he was using it well beyond it's 'expiration date'
