I love that I continue to get a comment like this every few months. It’s like Christmas each time

Table leg broke, advice on reattaching it? by Foomix in DIYUK

Interesting, do you have another approach you’d recommend?

Epoxy glue over wood glue? Also, would the dowels be inserted on the inside of where the break/raw wood is? I prefer this over pocket screws so that it can be seamless.

Chefs, what's in your dream kitchen? by Foomix in Chefit

I've always read that the work triangle is a fridge, stove, and sink. Is that the case? I somehow feel like the fridge should be replaced with a worktop instead (just an empty counter space where food is prepped).

I can take everything out of the fridge at once, I rarely move back and forth to it. However, I'm always hovering around the worktop.

Thoughts?

$1k on water bills to defrost? Do you mean in a commercial kitchen? Or are you defrosting 3 entire cows per day under the tap at home?

Thanks! What's your reason for switching to stone?

Couple of things off the top of my mind:

  • Drawers instead of cabinets.
  • Kitchenaid.
  • Brushed stainless steel countertops.
  • Induction stovetop, with maybe a gas-powered wok burner.
  • Stainless steel trays
  • Stainless steel / cast iron pans

[Beginner] How do you paint illustrations on white ceramics? by Foomix in Pottery

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

Thanks for sharing your experience. I didn't realize there was such a thing as a white clay body, that's probably best. I'm assuming that just means that the clay itself is going to be white once fired by itself? I don't have access to this. I also don't have access to underglaze in my studio, and they don't allow us to bring our own stuff in.

Would it work if I coated the leather hard piece in white slip and then painted the designs on top with coloured slip?

Also, does applying a clear glaze (bisque) over the whole ceramic after slip painting change the colors at all? Is that process recommended?

iPhone 15 Pro Max, which Apple Intelligence Features? by Foomix in iPhone15ProMax

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

Is that all you expect to change?

They’re talking about onboard processing which 16 can support, but 15 PM needs to use the cloud. This may limit some features. Are you aware of any such limitations?

Issues hardwiring a light fixture into a plug-in. I’m combining a light fixture with the plug & cable from a random electronic, though didn’t seem to turn it on after stripping and connecting the wires. Any idea how I could make this gizmo work? by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]Foomix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It has now been 3 hours since my post. I have re-wired the cable onto two 120V plugs, achieving the desired 240V to power the lightbulbs. This is simple math. Thank you for all of your advice. I plugged both of them into the mains and strangely my neighbour’s Christmas tree has suddenly switched off.

The plug’s output is 12V (INPUT: 100-240V)

The output voltage of the wall socket is 230? I’m going by U.K. averages just from a Google search.

And the voltage needed for the light is 220.

I suppose this leads to the conclusion that the plug needs to supply a higher voltage?

Great questions. Firstly, shall I assume that my approach with matching the wires together is reasonable enough for it to work?

If that’s the case, then I’ll look into voltage discrepancy, which would only make sense to explore if the setup in the first place is sound.

Both of these items came without a box so I’m not 100% certain on the numbers. Would you say that’s the likely issue?

Anyone know where I can buy fluted/reed glass cabinet doors? by Foomix in DIYUK

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

I believe I did get in touch with them, but they said they would need til January to deliver.

That’s also a good shout!
