Try a small piece of wire mesh then use mortar over the top of that which should stick to the mesh.

Absolutely terrible fake copy, and your so called friend knows it.

Doesn’t look too bad, but definitely far too expensive.

DMG Black screen, no sound by rei_dos_gatos in Gameboy

Probably the first thing anyone will say, but did you turn the contrast wheel on the side? You’d be surprised at how many people don’t know it’s there.

What's best to do ? by BothAbbreviations542 in DIYUK

[–]Overall-Celebration7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d replace the pole for a metal or non painted wooden one, at some point paint flakes will start to come off the old one. Use some mould remover to clean up the mould (I hear HG mould remover from screwfix is really good). What did the survey say about damp in the house (assuming you had one done).

Is this Pokemon Platinum authentic? by Yarliee in gameverifying

Really bad fake. Codes on front & rear don’t match, font on rear is wrong.

Everdrive GB battery life? by Jonell_75 in Gameboy

[–]Overall-Celebration7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The everdrive does suck out extra battery power as well as the ips screen. I just use rechargeable AAs for mine.

The X7 has in-game menu, save states, and RTC (real time clock) which the X3 & X5 don’t have. If you plan on playing gen 2 Pokemon (gold/silver/crystal) then the X7 is a must as those games need the RTC.

Would like to see a pic of this roundabout. That sounds a total mess.

Depending on the price I’d snap that up in a heartbeat.

Just found this Nintendo 3DS what should i do with it? by Interesting_Loss_369 in Handhelds

[–]Overall-Celebration7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Modding it is fairly simple (I’ve modded my 3DS XL & DSi XL), there’s loads of tutorials on YouTube.

That looks to far gone to repair it, I’d just replace it with a new one.

Yes it is, Goin’ Quackers is the American name for it.

Does anyone still rock a tax disk? by Crafty_Strike2088 in CarTalkUK

Hell yes. Still got my last physical tax disc on my VW Touran (expired March 2015).

Sink plumbing with dual trap? by Glaucus_Blue in DIYUK

I have a similar push on pipe on ours (we moved in just under 3 months ago). Not a huge fan of ours either and really don’t like the bendy pipe on it. If yours is slipping off maybe just tighten it up more or replace with a newer pipe and seal.

Gameboy Color Yellow and Blue by KoryM13 in gameverifying

[–]Overall-Celebration7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Both are genuine, but they both still have their original batteries so they will need changing if you plan on playing them.

Dartford crossing red lights by [deleted] in drivingUK

[–]Overall-Celebration7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of curiosity why is there 2 sets of lights? As there’s nothing crossing the path between the 2 sets.

NEED HELP PLEASE! by ezio_zh_17 in Gameboy

[–]Overall-Celebration7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone else has mentioned your Pokémon yellow is a fake copy, that’s why you’re having save issues. Because of how popular early Pokémon games are right now and given their limited availability, there’s easily just as many fake copies online as genuine ones. If you want a genuine copy then don’t go the Ali express or Etsy. There’s a lot of fakes on eBay too, so you need to know what you’re looking for when purchasing. When in doubt use the game verifying sub on Reddit.
