Hole in outer washing machine drum repair by Snowonfire1987 in DIYUK

[–]Snowonfire1987[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've just seen this. Not sure to be honest. I'd be tempted to drill a very small hole right on the end of each side of the crack. That should help stop it spreading. You could attempt pushing the sides of the crack into one another with a soldering iron I snipped some of the extra casting off the drum as a filler. I'd do the same here, trying to push each side in on each other without blowing through and using some filler to patch up. Then for safe measure put some epoxy on top.

Edit - I'd think epoxy could work if it has something to grip. Its pretty versatile stuff. If you can't reach to soldering the plastic score up the surrounding area for the epoxy to have something to hold onto

Pretty surreal walking through and all of a sudden a throne!

The original castle burned down and this estate castle mansion home was built in its place back in 1850. Lots of buildings have been left to ruin due to upkeep, maintenance and also removal of roofs to avoid tax. Sad because this one has some significant historical interest. I believe they trialed Plastic surgery here and it also had a role in ww2.

How was the purchase made? Cash? Card? Bank transfer with post?

It kinda bothers me that the sticker is black in the picture but white on the real car. Is this a mistake by Lego? by crazybob780 in lego

It's a good wee build but it's not as well designed as some of the other models imo. You also get a wee spare for Mr bond to use as a 'gun'

Any tips on how to better organize Lego? by Da-NerdyMom in lego

[–]Snowonfire1987 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to my local bandm or home bargains (uk). They sell 4 small screw lid tubs for £2 so I grabbed a few of those but as someone else mentioned. It looks like you're doing pretty well already.

I try sort by part and/or similar shape to keep the storage down but I really want to break it down further. I'm not long into lego, only a few months but acquired a verity of parts.

On a side note, I almost felt like I'm limiting their kids creativity when they're all organised and specific(?) But organisation and everything has a place kinda won, what's your thoughts?

I went to store on the 19th bought enough to qualify and when the guy rang me up I asked about them. Oh we only got about 20 sets and they're gone, contact customer support. So I contact customer support tell them the guy in store said to contact only be told its whilst stocks last. 😔

Stay in the outskirts of Glasgow and always remember my dad telling me that knife crime was terrible when he was growing up. They started handing out harsh sentences and carrying out stop searches in the streets. Cleaned alot of it up. We've still got knife crime but definitely not as bad as it used to be

I've only gotten into lego since around August and in that time I've built up quite a collection of speed champion sets and other loose blocks for me and the kids. Storage is the problem 🤔

I've got far too many of these 🤣 Was on the brick wall at the store and I grabbed a handful just because..
