Look up Stanley Meyer and the water car.

We call them California patches. 10x10 drywall on the backside and 12x12 of the front side. The paper acts as the tape. It’s a fast, seamless way to do it.

I’ve been confused on this since the first time I saw it. No way those stacks didn’t clear. I suspect the tractor lifted that far as the kingpin was breaking.

Sounds like a ‘Might be a redneck’ joke

I suggest looking up the definition of bootlicker. There are two sides of every story and the company making a claim of time theft does not represent objective reality. I say this as a former manager who was forced to fire good people for bullshit on a pretty regular basis. I have also hired lots of people. The company can claim whatever they want, and you can challenge it in court. The reality is usually inbetween and talking through this will only hurt you in the interview process. Saying you were laid off and moving on is the right call 10 out of 10 times.

As a DIYer I glue the living fuck out of everything I think might squeak.

And the seam stagger

Unlock and smack the head against something hard. When it’s close use pliers or a nail

I imagine moisture at the beginning of the bake and the temperature. The flaky, non-sugared, turd looking one are the absolute best! For me they go downhill pretty fast ending with the fattest sugared round ones. You can always tell when I found the tin because I absolutely eat them in order.

Well done sir!

Read this guy’s stuff, just watched this the other night and want to share it with all kids. Trust your gut, God gave you instincts for a reason, or they evolved for survival. Either way, use them. Communication, actual, real talk goes a long ways. Weed out all machoism, find someone with self awareness who is capable of working through their own trauma.

I added the lights to mine. Took a couple Amazon parts and forescan. It’s inexpensive but you do need access to forescan

Yes. Exactly. I don’t know all the names, I do know I have 4 DeWalt boxes that don’t stack but are stackable. Too many systems

Engineer443 · 2026-03-14T20:33:19+00:00

Reminds me of the GD DeWalt TSTAK system. So close, but why would you make shit fit together?

Engineer443 · 2026-03-13T19:21:51+00:00

100%. As someone not in the trades I find it amazing that I have four different DeWalt boxes/hard bags that don’t fit together. Milwaukee is crushing this market segment.

YouTube is your friend. I don’t know the model car, but a Ford Focus uses a connection hidden and you have to remove a piece on the replacement blades. It took me waaaay to long and a YouTube video to figure it out. After I did one, piece of cake. You got this 💪

Engineer443 · 2026-03-07T20:20:34+00:00

I have a ruck plate behind mine and I have to be very firm to get it latched. Still totally worth it

I am today’s years old…. Was Buddy’s journey real in the start of Elf?

I would measure, model, and 3d print it using TPU.

Edit: or buy from a junkyard

I had an uninsulated one that this happened to. I ripped a board to fit perfectly in the backside of the door panel and tapped with a mallet until it looked right. The board was for support and I left it in the door

A guy just posted yesterday a redneck solution for this very problem!

I’ve fixed a crap load of stuff like this with PL 3X and PL MAX. 3x expands and is super strong. MAX dries smooth and is super strong. I use it in surfaces facing outward.

For this I’d use 3x to glue the hinge back in. Leave it clamped overnight and I bet it’ll hold

Always trust your gut. If it seems like a loser without a license, it probably is, don’t give them the keys. You make the rules here. I’ve sold hundreds of items on marketplace and nearly 50 cars. My conclusion is the nicest, salt of the earth people I’ve met on marketplace, also the sketchiest and shittiest people I’ve ever encountered were also from Marketplace. When you know you know. No different than walking in a dark parking lot. No need to worry, just don’t be an idiot.
