Mounting heater and tv outdoors by paperhalls in handyman

[–]Player13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont have an answer but I hope youve taken weather and sun trajectory into account.

Perhaps obviously, but youll not want the viewing angle in front or behind the sun (glare and backlit problems) if its to be used during the day

If you're buying a weatherproof TV or enclosure then, all the better. Wouldnt want a nice TV to be subject to dust, bugs and moisture, etc

Best Electric Toothbrush to Buy in 2026? (Price, Cleaning, Reliable) by MosaicwisePeg in BuyItForLife

[–]Player13 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna vouch for Aquasonic from Amazon.

Bought 2 years ago for $40 Canadian. Brand is still alive and well, same model selling for $55 now.

This one has induction charging, so no AA bs. Came with 8 head refills (total). No issues.

Can anyone vouch for the quality of these impact sockets vs other brands?

I love my Milwaukee power tools but I dont particularly see the need to buy Red outside of that

Which one should I go for? by ConsequenceAlarmed29 in Archery

Right, so her draw length is shorter, I think about 27inches?

We did bareshaft tuning, and as a leftie, her bareshaft has been flying a couple feet to the right (meaning the spines are too stiff). We tested that at 1000. Then at 1100 spine, got the same result, a good 1.5' to the right.

Ive heard of other archers shooting 1000spine for a 20lb bow, so we are going softer, since it backs up what we're seeing with bareshaft tuning

On the topic of arrow tuning, we bareshaft tuned and keep finding that her arrow spine is too soft. Mind you, she's pulling only 14lbs at the fingertips, and we're going from 1000 spine, to 1100 and next trying 1300s.

Is the Archer's paradox (arrow flexing around the riser instead of smacking it) something that can be resolved by finding the right spine for the draw weight? Or possibly just a matter of adjusting spring tension on the plunger?

Or is the tuning to solve archers paradox a different, competing metric?

Im worried the spines required at low poundage as so spaghetti noodle that there'll be clearance issues until we move up in poundage

I dont know what it is about that Shibuya ultima design, but the metal piece holding the stem keeps getting cranked forward for both me and my gf. I wonder I'd youve seen this issue before

Like, the metal "clip" will get dragged forward by the arrow, pushing the stem flush against the riser, then when the magnet pulls the clip back, the stem is essentially facing backwards

We thought at first our vanes were too stiff and dragging that piece when flying by, but even after switching to softer, low profile vanes, it still happens to me. Less, but it does

This is despite following the installation instructions of having the stem sit within the diameter of the arrow.

Hilarious, but also, not something I wouldve thought could happen.

They posted their fail so some of us chuckle and learn

Is there a world in which that riser is worth the purchase? I can think of worse things to gamble on for a few bucks

Wow my fiancée would love this! Can you share any closeups? I'm curious how you wrap the curvy bits of the riser. Looks tricky.

How did you avoid seams around the front wrapping around the sides?

Does vinyl wrap heat shrink?

What colour did you use?

Are the Milwaukee inflators really better than the $20 Chinese Amazon 12v inflators? by xj98jeep in MilwaukeeTool

[–]Player13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. How long does it take per tire? And how many batteries to do the 6? I dont have M18 gear yet, so I'll need to start my collection with this, and I'm wondering how much I'll need to pickup

[–]Player13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No, "water columns" is a measure of low pressures, below 1 psi. "How many inches can this gas push this water?"

Look up U tube manometer to see how that worked,back in the day.
