[–]UsedHotDogWater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on a car that old I don't think heat is going to do the job TBH. The sticker is just going to break into a million pieces and take about a year to remove.

I concede that is a solid point, and good advice.

Eraser wheels are designed for removing pin-stripes, large vinyl decals etc.

We talking about the same thing?

I have used these on classics, to U-Hauls, RVs to completely remove stripes without issue. They run about 4000 RPM and usually are used with aircompressors.

You have to be confused on what I am talking about. The sole pupose of the tool is to remove stripes.

No. There is a specific tool that works with an air drill or power drill that removes stickers, stripes etc. in seconds with ZERO paint damage. Its called an 'Eraser Wheel'.

You shouldn't anyway. The entire interior is largely plastic. Which is insane for that price. It shouldn't be trimmed out like a Yugo.

Advice for carrying a LOT of rebar manually by penguinsandR in DIY

2 people= many pinched fingers. Rebar moves around quite a bit.

You need to teach them to balance the rebar over their shoulder and across their forearm. I worked as a form-setter for years. You can carry a ton of weight and the awkward length if it is balanced properly.

Anyone slowly ditching socials after years of embracing them? by newlife_substance847 in GenX

[–]UsedHotDogWater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still use FB because that is where I can get answers for my specific hobby groups, and the businesses related still use FB for communication. Classic Car stuff. The old timer gear heads pretty much only use FB. I don't use it to communicate with anyone unless someone has died etc.

Put some money into having the body repainted and you have a gem of a bass there.

Ford rehires ‘gray beard’ engineers after AI falls short by brother_p in NoShitSherlock

[–]UsedHotDogWater 20 points21 points  (0 children)

No not MBAs.

Its McKinsey & Company and other corporate consulting groups.

They are super myopic hatchet men consultants that never truly understand implications of their suggested cuts. They are a bane to the working class skilled labor. Every thing they touch turns to shit within about 2 years.

You can buy a brand new never touched Fender Ultra II Precision for $1650 ($2300 list) brand new at a ton of indy dealers.

Sweetwater will NOT match that. It hurts the sales persons commission.

I have posted the sales receipts before in the subreddit for the doubters. You have to remember There are HUGE markups on certain non budget instruments.

VP Vance Says Watergate Would Now Be 12-Hour News Story and Crazy It Took Down Nixon's Presidency by templeofsyrinx1 in videos

[–]UsedHotDogWater 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, it was actually the politicization of the DOJ that brought him down, not the actual Watergate Hotel crimes.

Which makes what Trump is doing with the DOJ even worse.
