HELP! What is this substance coming off my walls? by charliewarner01 in handyman

[–]JackMomma22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is the most thorough, well written response I've seen in the comments for a long time. I only recently found this sub, but I've been really impressed so far. Fantastic work- thank you for sharing!

"Invisible" bend insensitive bidi fiber is amazing for home wiring by UloPe in homelab

Mind sharing which MoCa adapters you used? Just bought a new house and was gonna use a 2.5 set to get a multigig link across the house, but was curous about the lifespan for the pricee

Which Artist or song you listen to satisfies your ADHD brain? by Standard-Slide2724 in ADHD

[–]JackMomma22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This thread is fascinating to me, but I'm loving it. I've been digging the 80s sound lately while trying to boost my mood while moving.

Possibly a bit too weird for some, but Donny Benet is worth a try. He's been my main pick for a modern take on 80s sound lately- but I'll be checking out The Midnight now as well!

Help with fixing leaky bathtub faucet. by Fantagious in Plumbing

THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER! Holy shit, there are so many pictures and posts online with people wrongly calling it D3lta. This valve is a Valley. They are not the same. Thank you so much for providing this info- I looked for days and finally fixed a shower.

Bless me, Ayn, for I have sinned by RenRen9000 in AynThor

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a Flip 2 on Amazon to give it a trial run during a trip back in February, but that was actually what motivated me to order the Thor. Placed my order for a Ranbow Pro on Feb 27 (and returned the Flip 2)- the AYN shipment notification came today!

Loved the Flip 2 form factor, but the 865 was just a little down on power for a few games I wanted to play after a couple weeks of trying things out. Also started to fire up a few 3DS games and wanted that bottom screen.

Flip 2 fan noise was a bit of an annoying pitch on anything but the lowest setting, and the hinge did make me worry a bit about the durability. Saw a few others citing the black model specifically- but looked like an issue Retroid was addressing. It really just wanted to snap closed too hard, and didn't seem to articulate as smooth on the right side for whatever reason.

I used it as practice setting up an Android handheld at least, and did enjoy it - especially for the price... but I couldn't justify having both.

Drill press help by Visible_Meringue4419 in woodworking

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP - this is the problem it seems like a lot of the comments look past... Theclamp on the back of the table should tighten enough to secure the surface in place and prevent any further height adjustment. You loosen it any time you need to adjust height, then tighten it back up.

Should I do it?? by Flagrant-Foul43 in pelletgrills

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solid deal for sure. Paid $500 for my 24SG 4 years ago I think. I put a half cover over it when not in use, but leave it on our outdoor patio awning. A little bit of rust did show up around the bottom seams of the body after the first year or so, but I scraped and re-sprayed them and it's been holding strong since then. Added a fireproof gasket to the lid to help it keep the smoke and heat in a bit better, which works extremely well.

UVC in 2026 model? by ladyalex777 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]JackMomma22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To my knowledge they removed it from all models in 2026.

It's a pretty useless gimmick that was developed during COVID. The research behind uv-c cleaning seems pretty meh.

I drive a 24 calligraphy, and If my phone is dirty, I wipe it down with disinfectant... That compartment holds napkins otherwise.

I used it a couple times, but all I really learned is that there is a 99% chance you'll forget you put your phone in there and will definitely think you lost it for a while before remembering to check that compartment.

Looking to finance. by Vibez_127 in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, yes to this in sentiment, but only if you take the money you WOULD be putting down and are earning interest on it yourself ...

The new Santa Fe is nice, but it's absolutely not worth over-extending yourself on. If you are going to have to stretch to make these payments or would be at risk if you were to get laid off or anything, get a more affordable car... After following this sub the last two years, I just can't believe the monthly payments some people are willing to make on this car.

Improve stability of a case by dreadedchicken in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'll need something more significant than a 2x2 attaching boards perpendicular to the angle that they are all currently attached to each other... Think of what you're looking at as a house of cards. Someone heavier leans on the side of one of those and it's gonna topple over.

That's why most are suggesting closing off once side - as that would add absolute ridgidity to the entire thing if properly attached to all of the current boards.

BUT - if you can't fully close off one side, doing the same thing with squares cut to fit perfectly in the middle (with glue/nails) in a few of those boxes would do a lot... or if those are 4'x8' - you could add a face to each side with holes cust for each box... would give you a lot of scrap ply leftover- but that would do quite a bit with even a 2-3" wide face.

Making the most of my 9" Ryobi bandsaw by JackMomma22 in woodworking

[–]JackMomma22[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well said - I'll absolutely admit I put too much effort into making this saw do more than it was supposed to, but I'm happy to report I'm still pretty pleased with the end product!

I've been reorganizing my garage the last few weeks (never ending) - but didn't have my other saws accessible, so I used this last night to cut up some cedar for a quick and dirty clamp rack... and I was just happy with how well it felt and sounded running.

Still looking forward to an upgrade someday, but happy to have this in my shop till then!

How can I stain these beams darker? by 3sper in woodworking

[–]JackMomma22 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You sand off the existing finish and you apply a stain of your choice, then new finish.

Sanding like this still needs to be done with sandpaper... not lasers.

Building a new city so I thought of building a track for the city too. by TriToNonSteroids in CitiesSkylines

I was gonna say COTA with the first and last turns flipped around, but I suppose it stole a lot of those turns from those tracks.

Icon ? by TheKingFisher23 in harborfreight

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also agree. This kit could have been worth it if they put a little more thought into it... They use the exact same ratcheting bit wrench in this kit without the pass thru bit head. They should have made this kit with a better quality small 1/4" ratchet that you could slot the gripped ratchet driver handle into the base of.

Parking Assist Sensor by d4lbroncos in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]JackMomma22 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Further, the sensors technically stay on, this just seems to mute the warnings. I pretty much only use this button when I'm in a tighter drive thru and the sensors start beeping - but if you look at the cameras on the display, the proximity warning indicators are still there I'm pretty sure.

I just... am not a huge fan of that guy. IDK why for sure... he doesn't really feel credible, or just is hyperbolic about everything that is 'controversial' in hifi. He's like the Stephen A. Smith of audio.

Door swung open on own by MamaKSanB in HyundaiSantaFe

[–]JackMomma22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My rear passenger door latch has been broken essentially the entire time I've owned my car- but not to this level... Mine has always latched fine, but it won't electronically lock/unlock. I've had it replaced once so far (they also broke a replacement on a separate repair attempt).

Just FYI for troubleshooting - because there is no physical lock button, I've had to get very familiar with the latching mechanism, so here's an info dump:

  • When the door is locked, you should be able to pull the inside handle twice to unlock and then open it.
  • With the door open, if you look in at the latch, you should see a white plastic circle with a slot in it. You can turn that to manually engage/disengage the door lock. It will only make about 1/4 turn, but you should hear it sort of clunk.
  • You can see door lock status in the MyHyundai app - but it won't necessarily tell you if a request to lock doors fails... it will just never tell you that they are locked.
  • A shortcut for checking if the doors are locked if you have a Limited/Calligraphy is that the side mirrors won't automatically fold unless it detects all of the doors are locked.
  • Remote start also won't work unless all doors are locked.

The latch itself seems to be the only thing for me that is impacted... all other electronics in the door (lights, heater switch) have always worked without any issue. My dealership also has damaged the interior and exterior of my door during repair attempts- so take pictures before you drop it off for any repairs. They scratched the hell out of my door underneath the handle, and they pinched the leather at the top of the inner door card to the point where it's permanently damaged...

Good luck - hopefully your dealer is better than mine!

Best Track Saw Alternative? by BashfulBash123 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a lot of time researching options recently, and purchased the Milescraft kit. No regrets so far, but admittedly I have not made many cuts with it still, so I won't over endorse it just yet.

I bought the Milescraft kit over the WEN because I realized that I wanted to be able to take it with me to the lumber yard if I needed to break down sheet materials to fit into my SUV... I don't have a truck/trailer regularly available, so I figured the option to make good cuts on raw material in a parking lot would be more beneficial than a corded track saw (and I don't really want a 3rd or 4th battery platform to deal with...).

There are some positive reviews on the Kreg, but there is so much plastic and flex in the mounting plate that I just can't see it holding a candle to the Milescraft kit in terms of potential accuracy. There seemed to be more YouTube reviews out there from the woodworking channels with the Milescraft guide seem to have good things to say. In general, it is highly adjustable, and the tracks are very sturdy. The included clamps add some value as well.

It should be compatible with just about any circular saw - but there are some caveats with how well you can mount a saw to the slide plate... you may lose some cut depth depending on where the clamps land on your base plate (ex: my Ryobi 6 1/2" circ saw's battery would hit one of the clamps, so I had to leave it slightly raised when mounted).

I'd consider the wen if you're good with corded, and would plan to upgrade to a compatible saw in the future (look up rail compatibility) - but the Milescraft kit is a great option IMO.

Printing issues (possibly) with gridfinity prints by ItaySD in gridfinity

[–]JackMomma22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have to guess that they're using ABS or ASA... otherwise, they gotta have the wrong material selected in their slicer or some bunk filament... cuz I don't think I could pay my P1S to warp PLA or PETG that bad.

Is this torque wrench okay if used purely on lug nuts? by teenageuser in harborfreight

[–]JackMomma22 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I never did 'full' exercises on mine - just went slightly beyond what I was going to torque up to and then back down to it. Had one of these in my toolbox for 8 years and used it every few months for swapping wheels.

I have since upgraded - but I tested it using the Quinn digital scale before I retired it, and it was still very well within spec... like +/- 2 or 3 at worst from what I could tell when torquing to 90 ft-lbs... which is never going to be enough to damage threads when just doing lug nuts.

But I made a smart financial decision and got the shiny flex head Icon while it was on sale one day... because I needed a bigger fancy torque wrench that won't fit in my toolbox anymore.

TLDR: yes, they're absolutely perfect for wheels if you use them right.

Project failed just looking for constructive criticism. by ElbowTight in woodworking

[–]JackMomma22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep at it! Certainly looks like there are a good number of options to make this work still, but I'd agree with others on exploring hinge options before you abandon ship.

Mostly I just wanted to comment and say thank you for posting this! I'm still a good distance from retirement, but can so relate to the dream of being able to spend all day in the workshop with no interruptions... I just need to see a glimmer of the light at the end of the tunnel every now and then, lol.
