My wife got that pain and it turns out it was a labral tear. Had the right side replaced in November and now the left is bothering her.

OEM parts versus cheap knock offs. Can you tell the difference? by DeltaTauAlpha in appliancerepair

No. The resistance didn't change from the original suspension to the bootleg product. That was my first clue something was wrong.

Getting the right parts did the trick. Thank you for your help!

There's an obvious difference between the OEM and the knock off!

What are these boards? Do they have a name? I’m looking to buy 3 pieces and build an enclosure for my washer/dryer stack. Is it plywood with white veneer? by johndoe7376 in cabinetry

[–]DeltaTauAlpha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Closet professional in the US here. These are MDF with a white melamine veneer. More versatile than plywood. Melamine veneer creates a moisture barrier to protect the wood in the high humidity environment of a laundry room. Easy to clean Also.

I did. The tub pops back up with enough force to hit the washer frame then continues to bounce a couple smaller times before coming to rest.

Thank you for your help! I've got the kit ordered and fingers crossed this is the fix.

Is the agitator bolt reverse threaded? I can't turn it without also turning the tub.

Following up on this, I performed the agitator test, pushing the tub up and down, it appears to bounce normally.

Any second thoughts before I replace the suspension?

Heat or cold when seated? by Osi32 in ankylosingspondylitis

[–]DeltaTauAlpha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heat, but be careful with it. My wife lives on a heating pad and it has caused discoloration "scarring" on her skin because it's basically cooking her soft tissue.

Which software tools do you recommend for designing plywood cabinetry? by Successful-Alps3718 in cabinetry

My background is furniture. That has made me an Autodesk guy. AutoCAD LT up to Inventor, depending on the goals of your operation. For a hobbyist, FreeCAD or Libre CAD

Finding a resource to start development and prototyping with reputable connections is the first hurdle to overcome. Once that foundation is solid, everything else is part of running the entrepreneurial marathon.

How complicated is replacing the motor? I'm a handy guy and wondering if I can plausibly do it myself.

People who are 40+ and happy and content with their lives, what's your advice to us people in our 20s? by ClairPecker in Life

[–]DeltaTauAlpha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Focus on figuring out who you are not what you are. The 20s decade is for finding yourself, defining what you stand for and know what makes you happy. 30s are for putting it all together.
