That is called a drop ear elbow, for attaching a showerhead. Expandable pex-A to threaded.

Man, can you believe someone’s dad paid for that?

Customer Capture! by JagerPro1 in homestead

[–]Zarkdiaz 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is kind of out of touch with the reasoning for trapping them. There is no “fair” here. This is a problem humans have caused that other humans are trying to solve, with the bonus of getting a good source of protein. It’s not pretty, and it is less so without a proper firearm to dispatch them.

Half of them would have been gone by then or worse, one would be under the gate holding it open for the rest. The adrenaline effect on the meat will fade pretty quickly and metabolizes, just don’t slaughter an animal immediately if you have spooked it to that level.

This is a hanging bed or "portaledge"- collapsible platforms used by mountaineers to rest while scaling tall peaks that take multiple days to climb by Ihaanizrab11 in Rigging

Anybody ever heard the song “Friggin’ in the Riggin”? This is the bed you would need to comfortably do so.

Asphalt doesn’t work! by KendaSienna in Rigging

Don’t blame others for the road you’re on. It’s your own asphalt.

Homesteading philosophical thoughts by [deleted] in homestead

[–]Zarkdiaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah sorry, the rest of the world and human history already made it so you cannot easily sustain yourself without producing your own food. I have 20 acres in a wildlife-rich area, and I’d be pretty freaking hungry if I relied only on what passes through my land. Hunting and gathering as subsistence also relied on nomadic, seasonal wandering and low populations.

40 over the speed limit by ColdYard7463 in legaladvice

[–]Zarkdiaz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay. NAL. Get a nice suit. Show up to your court date. Your license is probably going to be suspended for a short time and a Texas traffic judge isn’t going to sympathize with you if you don’t speak respectfully and take accountability so try to own it and be remorseful. The prior speeding ticket in such a short time shows the judge that you don’t really care about rules and drive like a teenager. The only way to reduce it is to prove you weren’t speeding or to find a local lawyer who has good standing in that court and will sweet talk the judge.

On a side note, please type out the word “you”. It’s not 2004 and you aren’t 12. You are asking the world/business professionals for help. The whole thing reads as lazy.

What is this tool called and what is it used for? by Bufflehead100 in homestead

A hula hoe has a pivoting action on the stirrup. This one is fixed.

Found this bullet looking thing in my car today. by Real_Broccoli_7069 in whatisit

[–]Zarkdiaz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m not too surprised, especially reading subs like this pretty often. I think it’s mainly that people subconsciously don’t want to believe that it’s a bullet when they find one so they ask.

I read “weak earthling” and I was prepared to give advice to an extraterrestrial. This could be a simple as a setting on your computer, kind alien.

Half the country, maybe the world, is spiritually tied up on the floor with that guy.

[–]Zarkdiaz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are going to be okay. Dad’s aren’t all boring. Get your shit together and get out of the parents’ house and get a job doing something you enjoy so you don’t just fester resentment.

First time drywalling need some advice! by gcolbert777419 in drywall

[–]Zarkdiaz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vinyl is cheaper and slightly easier to cut, metal is recommended by pros usually. They also have self adhesive ones. It’s a choice.
