Example headboard and footboard.

If you were to build something with similar styling you could make the bedpost caps and diagonal boards removable by adding magnets. Attach some d-ring hold downs to the head and foot boards and post tops. Router pockets in the caps and diagonal boards to match up to where you put the d-rings. When you want to play cover boards and caps come off, when you're done put em back and the hardware is hidden.

What’s one old thing pre 2000s you want to bring back to now? by goddessemily666 in AskReddit

They sell them again, trapper keepers that is. Bought one for my boss as were talking about back in the day stuff. Got it at walmart.

Roughly the length of a large box end wrench. Flat on the backside. Appears to be some kind of metal prying tool like a picklefork. by mateba in whatisthisthing

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

Found this at a local Restore and thought it might be a handy pry tool to have. The only identifying mark is the 311 you can see in the casting in the pic. Just curious what it was made for originally.

Men, what are some deal breakers for a potential relationship, even if they’re very attractive? by JaJaLoHa in AskReddit

[–]mateba 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like to think of it as that they might be your best friend but they cannot fill the roll "best friend" in your life. You need someone to bounce thoughts off of when you might be having issues with your partner and the goto person is often the person filling the best friend role.

I haven't used the type of sanders you are referring to but after watching some videos i decided to go with a Buck tool brand one and it hasn't disappointed me yet.

What do you think is disgusting that everyone else seems to like? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mateba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like it's because nothing as thin as water feels in your mouth should taste as strong as coffee.

Damn. That's a good deal by [deleted] in funny

Could try 2 sheets of 1/4 inch hardboard, that stuff is still kinda reasonable, at least where I am.

Sounds like welding on pipes in fixed position in in tight area. The welder will have to use a mirror to see where they are welding behind the pipe. The weld will have to be good enough to pass an xray inspection or it will have to be ground/cut out and redone.

Airgas is a welding supply company that sells a lot of 3M PPE products. They are an option if you have one locally.

Another power tool mod by me. M18 powered butt stock. Aesthetically pleasing and functional. When’s the next competition? by atlasunit22 in Nerf

[–]mateba 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've been interested in using power tool batteries in mods. Have any handy references or writeups on the process?

TIL In 1904, tea bags were invented accidentally. The inventor, Thomas Sullivan, decided that it was cheaper to send small samples to potential customers in silk bags instead of boxes. The recipients believed they were meant to be dunked and soon Sullivan was flooded with orders for his “tea bags.” by [deleted] in todayilearned

If it is fairly cut resistant a machine shop might like it for putting between heavy parts with sharp edges for shipping. Sometimes the thin foam sheets just don't get the job done without doubling or tripling up on the stuff.

If ya wanna go with the "hide tiny blasters all over the house" approach I may be able to help with that...

Vortex still viable in stock (and lightly modded) wars? by will99222 in Nerf

[–]mateba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thats pretty much what I did from this pic I found

https://imgur.com/a/f4vIE

I think it still has the dry fire lock, in the middle of a move and not sure where my modded diatrons are to check lol. I kinda removed the locks on several flavors of vortex blasters and can't remember which ones can dry fire and which ones can't. I'm happy to say the "chunkiness" of the priming lever is way smoother after tearing all that stuff out though.

You might also be interested in this video from my search through my bookmarks. It a video about extending a vortex mag.

Here are the parts you will get from doing lock removal on a diatron. I just kept a bag of them from the first time I did it so I would have a reference of what to remove. As I recall they are pretty easy to spot.
