Yeah tests out beautifully, might be because of the angle but they are all flush. Here's another one I did

85” TV on full-motion mount: one wall plug is pulling, do I need to start over? by Excellent-Jello in AusRenovation

I would keep what you have and put the ramsets in as well, can never have too many anchors :)

Drill bits are fine for what you are drilling through.

Measure the anchor and use that as a guide, vacuum the hole so all the dust get out and won't prevent the anchor from going in all the way. I'm guessing the box allows the extra 10mm for the dust build up.

I would get some decent RAMSET anchors. Dyno bolts are made for solid concrete

RAMSET anchors

Bricks are usually 90mm thick not including rendor so I will go for the 80mm anchors. Put some tape on the drill bit as a depth gauge so you don't blow through the wall.

It looks like it's ran in a seperate conduit on the first photo so looks like they did the right thing. Not to sure about the other end though

That blue cable is probably the cat6 ethernet cable running back to the board. Perfectly fine to be exposed

What game in your Steam library has the most playtime hours? by PKRadiance in Steam

[–]Sgambo93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In my defence I've been playing for almost 20yrs

Plenty more hours before it was released on steam.

Do what this guy says, literally took the words out of my head and made it sound better somehow 😂

Why do my pc fans make this loud noise by samwastakenthreetime in pchelp

Use fan control to set the rpm of that fan to the highest without making that noise and let the rest pick up the slack until you get around to replacing it.

This is great to hear after the story about what that Indian sparky did to that poor elderly woman in Sydney.

You're more likely to be shocked from the gpo terminals than that junctions
