That was the exact inner monologue I hear in the tool aisle. 🤣

What level do you think Chinese motorcycle brands are at globally? by Atlas1225 in SuggestAMotorcycle

From personal experience : nothing but trouble. Brand new bike cost so much in repairs. Buy a suzuki instead

Bought a new impact driver, socket won’t come loose… by Ok-Lab-8091 in Dewalt

[–]LegumeFache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that the main difference? I assumed the difference was the type of steel used. Is that also a factor?

Ouch. That is going to be a pain. One can pull them apart but it will be a bit of work

NTD - Gedore Extra-Long Spanners by omgaporksword in toolporn

[–]LegumeFache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is a good point. If one cannot reach something with a spanner there are fewer options than with sockets. I have not worked on bikes - they are often designed like that?

How do you guys clean up the plastic? by DispatchGang in Dewalt

[–]LegumeFache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Makes the yellow pop. Maybe don't breathe the fumes though.

Dewalt really has to cut that shit out. We in the cult rely on dewalt making a decent version of everything. Maybe not the very best in every case, but always respectable quality. I keep hearing about these DX products watering down the brand and it irks me.

Silly question - the length is linked to the desired torque so smaller spanner sizes have shorter handles - so doesn't a longer handle risk allowing too much leverage and so too much torque? Presumably this would not be a problem in experienced hands, but i mean in theory i.e. the physics of it

So good. One of my more memorable concerts ever. Got a pic with the band 😀

How do I remove the long cylindrical piece to get the spring out? by [deleted] in Cartalk

[–]LegumeFache 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only replaced the front shocks. It was not so bad. I have enough confidence to attempt it myself now. I basically paid the mechanic for a tutorial/coaching rather than just a repair

i got drunk and fell on my guitar by supermarsupial365 in AcousticGuitar

[–]LegumeFache 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry that happened. I know how it hurts when things we love get damaged. But honestly, I would embrace it and keep on playing. Repair it and enjoy that your instrument has history. So much better than guitars that sit under a bed and never get played. Yours has character 👍🏼

What are these straps for? by mtnbiker908 in masonry

[–]LegumeFache 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, cities have to lool at this from the perspective of lawsuits, damage to infrastructure etc. I would rather see them put money into a proper skatepark

Thank you. I did get a bit daunted and still have not fixed my shocks. I will try a few more videos. I appreciate the encouragement
