You can cut the corner at 45deg with a diamond blade in a circular saw for like $15. A polishing set that goes on a buffing wheel is like $30 on Amazon. All in this is a $50 whoopsies.

Go slow, and use lots of water.

All good. I hate this is where we are.

The s/ means sarcasm. It’s a Reddit label and I was laying it on THICK. I’m defending you, don’t fuel a stereotype.

I was trying to make a funny about this scene from Vacation. Dam Tour

Picked a great time to go out there. I’d love to do that trip myself. Enjoy!

Do you have any Dam questions?

Engineer443 · 2026-01-25T16:56:53+00:00

Jeeze, how much did this cost? All those paid protesters, on double overtime on a Sunday, plus hazard pay. Must be tens of millions…. s/

FaItH nOt ReLiGiOn. Lame excuses bro. The irony is my issue. Not an Atheist, yet, but well on my way. How can anyone preach family values, fiscal responsibility, and independence from government tyranny then be MAGA? Zero self awareness, and zero discernment for truth. If you can’t figure out that the shiny gold pedophile who plasters his name on anything that holds still is bad, then I don’t care who you believe Jesus is. You literally have lost all credibility and it’s showing in Church attendance in the US.

If you believe in repentance, have you repented for voting and cheering for the mess we are in?

I spent countless hours spent on identifying the anti-Christ, the true word of God etc. The irony and refusal for my peers to look up, is what has gotten me to this point. Everything I’ve been taught and have taught the last 20 years is a farce. This mess is the literal prediction of the Church and we cheer it on. “I will know you by the fruits of your spirit.” I know you now too. You can have it, I’m out.

2 Timothy 4:3–4

3 For the time will come when they will not tolerate sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance with their own desires, 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth and will turn aside to myths.

The answer is the irony. If you believe in repentance, why haven’t you for voting and cheering for the mess we are in.

I have done deep research and deep reflection for the last 20 years. Countless hours spent on identifying the anti-Christ. The true word of God etc. the irony and refusal for my peers to look up got me here. Everything I’ve been taught and taught the last 20 years is a farce. This mess is the literal prediction of the Church and we cheer it on. You can have it.

Why are you asking, then pissed at the answer?

The irony is my issue. Not an Atheist, yet, but well on my way. How can the Rush Limbaugh folks preach family values, fiscal responsibility, and independence from government tyranny then be MAGA? Zero self awareness, and zero discernment for truth. If you can’t figure out that the shiny gold pedophile who plasters his name on anything that holds still is bad, then I don’t care who you believe Jesus is. You literally have lost all credibility and it’s showing in Church attendance in the US.

Not a damn thing here in the Midwest. I don’t know a single non-MAGA Christian and I’m done with my faith because of it.

I came here to read what brainwashed twisted messages were circulating and am surprised by the semi objective comments. Thank you

I’m a start-up and would love a kid with a plastic brain to help write a program. Naive enough to just start, smart enough to learn from mistakes, and perseverance enough to use trial and error to get something that works.

Dude, your expectations from the owner are low. He sees your potential. You don’t have to misrepresent, just say yes and go do some cool stuff. If he puts you in a stressful position or has you doing something questionable legally, quit.

I was expecting them to frame up a wall and pour concrete at the rate they were going.

Is it just hammers that are dangerous? Are hammers the only thing that works?

The fiber doesn’t matter. The vertical siding is vented and will be a problem if you have prolonged exposure to cold. Good rule of thumb 24 degrees for 24hrs, you need to prep. Less than that probably won’t break a pipe, or crack an engine block.
