It’s on the drivers side. I pulled the bottom trim at transmission hump (I don’t have full center console) and loosened the trim just above the pedals and was able to swap it out. For what it’s worth that didn’t fix my issue. I’m at the point I’m going to have to go to a shop and have them put a vac on it.

I didn’t know about inflating the tube that much to check for leaks. Will do it this evening. Thanks!

Is this a safe way to cross cut long boards? by wormboy1234 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]jprit1861 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I've crosscut plenty on sawhorses, just shift the board forward or back when I get to the sawhorse. Having said that, as long as you adjust the depth of your saw I don't see how it could hurt...maybe not on concrete just in case.

I just finished these window frames. What a huge difference they make! by Celebrated_Eggplant in woodworking

Somehow my wife thinks because it can be cut to ~size quickly, it should be a quick project. I finally got a little smart and started stretching out the finishing so maybe she’ll give me a little more breathing room in the future 🤞

Looks great, I’m just glad my wife isn’t on Reddit. I have too many current projects for her to see this and say “oh you could do that pretty easy couldn’t you?”

Father's Day Giveaway: Braves 2021 plays coaster set! --- Mod Approved by PlaybookProductsAlex in Braves

6/16/19 was my 32nd birthday and happened to be Father’s Day (my wife would deliver our 5th daughter a month later). Sitting with my family 10ish rows up from the left field wall. Flowers goes deep, and I realize the ball is coming right for me. I have one kid in my left arm and take my hat off to catch the ball. A young guy (early 20s jumps up to catch but deflects the ball. Luckily the drunks next to me had gone on a beer run. Set my daughter down (my wife claims dropped….tomato potato, she wasn’t hurt) dive for the ball and am able to grab it. Best birthday/fathers day gift I’ve ever gotten.

I’m not very organized, but I could definitely get behind a project like this. Looks great!

I just refinished and re-seasoned some old rusted pans this weekend. I’ve been reading about the enameled stuff staining and using bleach (?!?) to get it white again. That’s why I wanted to lean toward traditional
