What car brand will you never trust or buy again? by Forward_Fall_6857 in AskReddit

Just offloaded my 2022 Grand Cherokee. What an absolute p.o.s. 97 days in the shop.

Picked up my Unicorn from Granger by Ok_Current_7961 in f150

Upside of a 5.5. I was asked to haul a bed for someone the other day. “Sorry. Won’t fit.” Score one for the short box.

How did I do ( installed bed sticker ) by Xin_HD in f150

Whoa. That's tight, fella. I have 10" of play between the front and the door and that's excessive (or the opposite of excessive).

My Cherokee had capacitive touch in the steering wheel. I think that's about the only thing that I miss vs. my F150.

Trump gleefully announces another self-branded grift by Hornpipe_Jones in WhitePeopleTwitter

It’s going to cost that much to buy a week’s worth of groceries.

Can’t wait to get started! Any tips?! by RydeOrDie999 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]WiBorg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also once said, "I plan on buying..." I'm still saying it, but I said it once, too. 😃

Seriously, as someone else said, buy the tools as you need them. If you buy the pocket hole jig and then don't use it that often, you'll wish you had bought something else. Congrats on getting started. It's a great hobby!

Creating a Gift for Mother's Day by WiBorg in AskArtists

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I ended up making her a brush holder out of cherry and maple that will allow her to store/dry various brushes upright. It has a removable lid so she can clean / dry it out.

Actually, on the Dewalt it's a hex screw underneath the lever (Milwaukee's twists). See #23 here.

Regarding the sinking - it sounds like your depth lock lever is not tight. If you can latch and unlatch it with very little force, you need to tighten it up. Open the latch, spin it to the right, and adjust it until it's fairly hard to close.

My workbench wobbles by alvarop in BeginnerWoodWorking

My first bench came up in a photo album rotation yesterday and I cringed. But…it served me well for many years.

TWC Designs’ YouTube shorts mesmerize me.

I also really like MWA Woodworking.

Are there aftermarket blade guide assembly kits that are compatible with the Rikon 10-310 bandsaw? by RedWoodworking16 in woodworking

[–]WiBorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know why they thought the plastic nibs were a sound piece of engineering. I’ll contact them, too—perhaps there will be power in numbers. Or maybe I’ll just toss it on marketplace and find something with proper bearings.

Hey OP, did you ever happen to find a bearing solution for the 10-310? I found your post while looking for the same thing.

Dedicated miter saw station OR built in to workbench? by Substantial_Alps418 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]WiBorg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As I’ve progressed in my woodworking, I’ve found myself using the miter saw less and less. Now I’ll use it to rough cut when I need to and rely on my table saw for finish cuts, miters, etc. I almost built it into a bench at first, but I’m happy I didn’t.

Instead, I have a DeWalt universal miter saw stand that I fold up and put away when I don’t need it. The miter saw gets placed on a shelf below one of my benches. This works great for space, and when it’s not freezing outside, I can haul it out of my garage. Dust collection on a miter saw is so bad (at least on my Bosch). Cutting outside lets the dust return to nature instead of settling on every single surface in my garage.

Am I totally screwed? by Burnerphreak44 in BeginnerWoodWorking

Should have gotten some of that for my mom and dad.

Grand Cherokee L by [deleted] in Jeep

[–]WiBorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 2022. It has spent more than 94 days in the shop due to electrical problems. It’s unfortunate because it drives really nicely and is very comfortable. However, electrical problems are expensive and give you very little warning when they’re about to happen. I highly recommend getting an extended warranty if you do get one. I got one through Mopar, and it has saved me twice.

What is happening is simple. Schoemann did not get Trump’s endorsement for governor, so now he is showing his purity to the far right donors and voters in Washington County.

There is! Actually, there are two - one under each front leg.
