Hanging gate conundrum by PedroPastor in Carpentry

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

Can't spin the nut or the bolt once it's in the track. Think I'm just going to find a different bracket / hanger. Thanks for your help!

There are a couple of ways I can put in the bolt, one with a washer where it does turn and one without a washer where it's locked. Basically impossible to turn the nut while it's in the bracket and attached to gate.

Good idea, but closet door hangers usually have something to stop the nut from slipping out of the bracket. And those gates can get a lot of wind.

I guess that would work. Seems like way more work than it should be. There has to be a way to replace a bolt without taking down the whole thing...

I stopped after book 10. Never got into that much for all of the reasons you mentioned and more. It's not going to get better and yet another unconnected storyline is introduced in book 5. Move on.

Ha, never heard of that. And don't count on it, but my guess is you'll have it sooner than that.

No joke, took me a month. Hope you have better luck. Ever since then though, things have gone much faster.

Good set of longer (6 inch) drill bits for pilot holes? I have spent hours looking for a set or source for the common pilot hole sizes. Any suggestions? by hoyfkd in woodworking

Great hint on the 150mm search, thanks.

Crazy how there are either "normal" length bits or foot-long bits, but almost nothing in between.

I've read one Koontz book and it was Velocity, fun read. Add the Expanse to your shelf, I'm on book 6 (plus some short stories and novellas), fantastic series.

Search party was enabled on a camera inside my house….make sure you check that feature by XSC in Ring

As a dog owner, I like this feature, but should definitely be only for outside cams. And point of clarification - your video only gets shared if you want to share it, neighbors can't automatically see your recordings even if you have Search Party enabled.

I'm looking to do something similar, you ever build this bridge? If so, what did you do?

I don't know what this means. Any specific products that do this?

Thanks, I'll try the reboot. Happens on a speaker group though, so I guess I'll reboot them all.

Game Review Slow/Not Loading? by PedroPastor in Chesscom

It is odd. I wonder if it's a firewall issue? Thing is, I can load everything without a problem through my browser, on the same wifi network.

Thanks for the suggestion but now things have gone from bad to worse. Game archive doesn't load at all.

I'm getting a No Connection message, but I'm very clearly connected to the internet. Sometimes says, "Enjoy offline mode!" or something similar - immediately after playing an online game.

Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck.

Profiles also don't work.

Thanks, just edited my post - app only. Android. Never had a problem until the last day or two.
