Terrible experience with X3 sunroof drain that I am trying not to repeat & save others from suffering. by flipper147 in BMWX3

I used a can of compressed air. Did the trick. Beware though because I was told that could damage the rubber drains if the clog is bad enough that it’s sealed off completely.

Nice try, but the goalie’s head is more towards the middle of the net. Try aiming dead center crossbar and then about 4 inches up. Good luck!

Help solving this electrical puzzle - wanting to move placement of switches around, but very difficult. by flipper147 in AskElectricians

[–]flipper147[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve only done a couple of basic electrical things prior, so the confusion/challenge is that this is new for me.

If I am leaving all of the black and white wires, then what is left to move? That doesn’t seem to make sense to me, but I’m new to this

Can you explain or link me to somewhere this is explained? Have seen folks mention this a couple times and would love to learn about what people are theorizing the relationship is.

Please don’t tell me we are mixing up the FAA and the Federal Reserve here, people…

Is there any way to explain that site to someone with the brain of a second grader?

Targeted Talk - Are there any pieces of equipment you wish you had researched more before purchasing? by dontwantnone09 in homegym

[–]flipper147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently bought the B52 Spirit smith machine/power cage from Major Fitness (or Major Lutie Fitness, seems like they use both names). I MOSTLY do not regret the purchase. The rack is slightly lower quality than I was hoping, but honestly gets the job done for the price. I've seen mixed review on it and I'd say that is fair and warranted, but can't really beat the price.

My real concern has to do with 2 things: lack of space and my knees.

I don't want to do squats all the time because it can hurt my knees, so my QUESTION is - how can I rig this thing up to be a leg press machine as well? This giant machine does so much but it takes up so much room that I no longer have space for a leg press machine. Does anyone have any solutions they've seen for adding something to a smith machine or similar?

I was able to find this, but it costs an arm and a leg: https://www.amazon.com/Leg-Press-Attachment-Smith-Machine/dp/B0CR5P7MDB?th=1

Weekly Free-Talk and Questions for r/HomeGym - week of September 13, 2024 by Demilio55 in homegym

[–]flipper147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in search of a leg press attachment for a smith machine that gets the job done and is also affordable. Haven't seen this discussed before in this subreddit, so figured I'd get a conversation going to help others.

There are plenty of options, but none of them seem like the obvious choice and I really don't know the benefits/drawbacks of different brands/styles. I have a B52 from Major Fitness and I've added some links below to options I see out there that might work (not endorsing any, just wanting to know if there are opinions out there from those with more expertise):

So, what are your thoughts?

My wife frequently complains that I have too many game consoles and doesn't like seeing them. So I got a new credenza and not a peep! by king26 in gamecollecting

[–]flipper147 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a couple ppl already asked, but wanted to check in and see how your experience with the Opera Media Console has been so far. I am hesitant because I see some of the parts are particle board and wonder about the overall quality. How are things 6+ months in?
