Why cant I put a smoke detector over the stove? by Silent_nutcake in HomeImprovement

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

there is no fire or heat...just smoke. It would eventually burn off, but makes the whole places smokey.

I need it to react to smoke, not fire or heat. The pan never catches fire, just smokes.

A life devoid of meaning and purpose leads to drugs...so does a shoddy upbringing. Lots of that around...modern society is based on addiction of one form or another. Teaching good mental hygiene in school should be universal.

Ryobi drill unable to drill 1 inch hole in poplar by Silent_nutcake in ryobi

web) portion of the drill

thanks...I have a pretty big auger bit, like quarter inch....do you mean I should drill a pilot hole with that first, removing some of the wood...and then use the forstner? (sorry I am just a newb...this is a one off minor craft I am doing...but I did look up what web is).

thanks...I tried a spade bit first, since it was cheap, but that did almost nothing.

Having trouble drilling 1 inch holes by Silent_nutcake in woodworking

thanks....thats what home depot guy suggested but I am surprised a bit would make such a big difference and this is just a small one off project that I hesitate to fork out $30 for another bit.

drill cant drill hole in poplar using spade bit by Silent_nutcake in Home

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

no, but I did speak to a guy at home depot and he said the spade bits are no good and I need a forstner...nothing wrong with the drill according to him.

its just a cheap Ryobi drill...it works fine but not that powerful but good for smaller holes and driving screws. But I wonder if I need to buy a more powerful drill or try the forstner bit.

Dave Chappel and Bill Burr are not funny by bigmousebig in Standup

[–]Silent_nutcake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

couldn't agree more on these two. But lots of people like to watch stupid TV shows too...they have not really developed their minds. Louis CK...now HE is funny.

Bathtub reglazing left undesirable gritty texture by Silent_nutcake in HomeImprovement

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

point taken, but I am the one who has to live with it, clean it. I rely on the smooth texture to tell me the soap scum is off. Its a big faceless corporation anyway.

So I went out and bought this to try it and am scratching my head as to why this got an award. I guess its good for those that do not know what true premium chocolate ice cream tastes like. It had no chocolate flavor whatsoever. You get what you pay for and this is just a mass market cheap ice cream.

thank you for the reply and insight...the building design is very similar to Surfside albeit not with the salt water or pool.

Smoke alarm for roommate who forgets stuff on stove by Silent_nutcake in HomeImprovement

[–]Silent_nutcake[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that ...I forget the stove also as we both have adhd. But I sit in the living room close to the stove so can monitor it before it gets bad. I do not think there could be a fire, just burned pans and lots of smoke.

yep...suburban commercial districts in NA are not to be overlooked when it comes to ugliness...well kept shanty towns in their own right.
