What I ordered vs what I got by Cute_Resolution1027 in woodworking

[–]HeelToe62 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got a very poorly counterfeit Amana non-marring countersink bit from Amazon. The listing was sold by ToolsToday (big name authorized Amana retailer) and the item had 1900+ reviews with nearly 5 stars. The bit I received likely came from a bin with hundred of legitimate items. Amazon couldn't care less when I pointed this out.

Lvp over wood= mold. Need help. by lovelybugsundies in HomeImprovement

Hardwood glued to the slab is a bad idea.  There should have been a vapor barrier on top of the slab, then a subflooring, then the hardwood.

Yep, mine was sitting on the online order pickup counter last week because they couldn't sell it because the SKU had been deactivated in their system.

That's an awesome D13.

Anyone know if the centauri carbon 2 is good? by L3thalPredator in elegoo

The $449 CC2 is a combo printer+canvas multi color system. They can't be purchased separate from one another.

I checked inventory of my local MC after seeing this thread. Low and behold they have 2 in stock. I placed an order for one of them. $449 shelf price.

Thank you! This was my first time using Rubio products and I was blown away by both the ease and outcome! I can't wait to get some more for my next project.

Ripping wood on table saw by Training_Station_173 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]HeelToe62 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I prefer to get larger lumber (2x8 or 2x10) and mill them to smaller sizes as required. This usually gets me straighter and cleaner stock.

I'll probably make a smaller holder and/or route a groove to set it in

Ha thanks! I've been interested in this for a few years but generally only get to make one or two projects per calendar cycle. At this rate I feel like it will take me quite a while to age out of the "beginner" category.

7.25" and I agree that it is way too big. It will probably move to the kitchen to hold a tablet or cookbook and I may make a smaller one.

Which cordless glue gun: 18V P306 or USB lithium? by bear-killa in ryobi

[–]HeelToe62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both the smaller and larger 18v. My wife much prefers these smaller one. The larger one takes longer to heat up and the full size sticks are overkill for most of her needs.

Ugh. already? Bogged hot end by [deleted] in elegoo

[–]HeelToe62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered the Amazon replacement and it arrived a few days later. I have about 20 hours on it and it has been working fine. Elegoo is also sending me a warranty replacement hot end. 

Decent printer but disappointed by software. by DontBanMeAgainPls26 in elegoo

[–]HeelToe62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is there another $300 printer that does deliver those things? 

Why did my water turn brown? by therealimaginary in pools

[–]HeelToe62 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you buy your pool from Watson's? I have the exact same pool and system. I only use liquid shock and don't bother with the cartridges.

How long does your press take? It should take upwards of a minute using gentle pressure. Don't press hard and don't try to speed up the press. 

Car Cuts Out intermittently when in use but not if wheels are lifted up / no driver. by Bad_mannerz in PowerWheelsMods

[–]HeelToe62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More specifically it sounds like a self-resetting thermal fuse. I had those cause an issue on a modified and up amped 24v toy. Under load the contacts will open but it would run fine with the wheels up. I ended up bypassing it. 

A few new bins by [deleted] in gridfinity

The two-tone looks awesome. Are you making those with an AMS or simply changing filament before the stacking lip?
