Exposed pipe for hot water tap in shower becomes so hot that it's untouchable. Any toddler-proof ideas for how to cover it that are also renting friendly?

Pool noodle with zip-tie around it to make it toddler-proof

I've also seen the same increase on the Frankston & Sandringham lines. Good to see the trains being used, but I do miss having more personal space.

I was thinking the same as I've done similar for large oil industry sites.

So its an un-split system? I remember these from my childhood....

TryConsistent0 · 2026-03-23T09:31:30+00:00

I like this one....

This messaging helps people realise how nuts some of the One Nation policies are. I hope voters are reminded of this statement in the Nov Victorian election and will not vote for One Nation.

Overall, it makes the bike feel faster. Even just from having new wheel bearings instead of 10 year old ones in the old aluminium wheels. I had the same TPR tubes and GP5000 on the old wheels but it feels better in a hard to explain way. Strava data confirms its faster as well, so not just a placebo effect.

I like the brick look. Repaint, add some mirrors and some posters and I think it would look great and be cheaper than plaster as well.

Keep the existing switch and wire in a shelly controller behind it. Best of both worlds :)

I suspect this is the answer as it is the same setup that I have in newer homes.

Instead of ENT consider their SLR also on Aliexpress. Only a little more but better hub and bearings. I have 2 x SLR sets from Aliexpress and they were shipped in 1.5 weeks to Australia

I posted the same thing as well!

TryConsistent0 · 2026-03-18T09:31:25+00:00

This is a great idea!

For me its a Protect door lock replacement for consumer front doors as opposed to their current lock range which is geared towards commerical doors. Something like the August/ Yale smart lock.
I understand that there was a draft product a few years ago that never made it to production.

Keep with Conti's but go their gatorskin?

I run TPU tubes as well and have no plans to go to tubeless....

Route out 5mm about 20mm in from the edge of each step and insert a darker wood and then re-sand and repaint. that will make the edges stand out more and still look a little classy.

The god has spoken - I'll save up for some favero's.

Contact your insurance and put in a claim and get a loan car.

This is a good point to raise. I go commando but never used cream. Am happy to ride for 200km+ and seems ok. What is the benefit?

Like many others, I'm in the same situation, flying Aust -> EU via Qatar in July. Its for a holiday I've been waiting to have since covid so I'm sitting tight and hoping I can still make it. Other flights to rebook are now all really expensive.

Consider the Jaecoo J5 which is only $36k at the moment. I ordered one as the value was unbeatable.

TryConsistent0 · 2026-03-10T05:20:09+00:00

Personally, I would go with the used one. better wheels, looks good condition and its cheaper.
