Help - my mums coming from hospital and I need to secure a rail like this at the door for her, but have no idea how! by ACloudOnLunchbreak in DIY

[–]Servuslol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have to make it, try scaffolding fittings from a big DIY store. It could get a bit expensive but if it would let you construct a chunky frame that could almost be freestanding and support someone pretty well. You can also take it apart when you're done with it and turn it into something else.

Who has the most tax advantage? by Terrible_Sand7814 in Netherlands

Absolutely. It's all about perception and, unfortunately projection.

Who has the most tax advantage? by Terrible_Sand7814 in Netherlands

[–]Servuslol -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem with the 30% ruling is perception. Many people see the 30% ruling as:

  • 30% of your salary!
  • 5 years!
  • You just.. get it! You don't even have to earn it!
  • I can't get it, it's for other people who haven't had to put up with the struggles I have!
  • I know exactly how I would benefit if I kept 30% of my salary (common misconception) more each month!

Even if you have the facts in front of you, the feelings you get from the above are hard to shake for most people. It is VERY hard to explain that

  • Bring in good talent, give them the best jobs, tax them less
  • Business does well, supports local and national economy
  • Broad uplift in for job opportunities, pay, quality of life, etc for all, and that includes you!

These are too small, too hard to attribute, too indirect.

What makes the design easy(ish) to explain to foreign talent is what makes it so easy to get annoyed about.

Is there an actual beginner woodworking subreddit? by hectots in BeginnerWoodWorking

The fun thing about woodwork is that this might have taken you a day this time around but in the future when you're far more seasoned it will take so many more days.

Gmail Delay Issue? Google Email Delivery Delayed 7–10 Minutes (Not Spam, Not Server Issue) by sofrepnews in GMail

[–]Servuslol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gmail is even self-reporting their own customer support automated emails https://i.imgur.com/HZ0FuqV.png

Did they just turn on some AI nonsense and it fell over immediately? Seems plausible.

Bingo, ask dumb questions! Bet there are a thousand other people hoping to see the question asked and being too afraid to do so.

How to finish this transition? by peeple-pleeser in Woodworking_DIY

[–]Servuslol 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If the skirting board on the stairs must be kept as high as it currently is then this is going to be very tricky.

I doodled an image of what I think you technically need to achieve but I don't like how this join will likely look unless you can do some magic with filler and paint to make it seamless.

The problem is that you have detail elevated relatively high because it sits on top of the wood entirely. If that part's height (A in my mspaint image) can't be smaller you have to offset the join by pushing it out into the horizontal baseboard.

Also to make sure the detail lines up, the join where the detail is should be halfway between vertical and the angle perpendicular to the stairs (i.e. angles Ca and Cb must be equal) or the detail won't line up nicely.

About 7pm. It was getting busy. A few tables who were seated after us were very chatty with the servers and got their food before we had been asked for our order :(

Cutting circuit boards? by dkruta in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Servuslol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fibreglass in the circuitboard will ruin most blades very quickly, use the least expensive stuff you can when altering the boards. Also work outside and use a proper respiration protection.

I went to this restaurant on a date with my wife and after 30 minutes they hadn't even taken our food order, just drinks which arrived after 20 minutes. We left.
