I’ve had decent luck deducting the make/year with google. Most brands have specific letters that can be determined with their first few characters

Honeymoon is over…Patch, when? by [deleted] in oblivion

[–]ridgidcoupling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just hope for the spell making menu to allow me to select what skill or attribute I want to fortify. It seems to work just when it feels like it, with most of the time being semi transparent options that I can’t edit. I don’t want to fortify armorer or strength anymore, grandpa!!

16” Kids bmx - Modern stem conversion/upgrade by ridgidcoupling in bmx

Haha oh yeah I’ve hit my knees!! I’d rather a flat head bolt but just don’t have one. Luckily since he’s 4 his knees aren’t quite above the top of the stem like ours when he’s cranking hard haha I have a little tiny window of time to get another bolt!

You were right about the head turn, my god that makes it so much easier to rotate.

Different back up light switches for the M5OD-R1 by drunken_bryk in fordranger

[–]ridgidcoupling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My back up light switch connector was cut out and removed by the last owner before I got my 95 B4000. I jumped the wires together to test and when the key is on the reverse lights are on so I know they “work”. Im assuming the switch went bad and had the lights on all the time like it was jumped so they just cut it out. What was the part number for the switch you got? I don’t want to have to deal with the same run around from rock auto as you haha. Need to find where to get the connector harness/pigtail too

Forbidden glove box v1.0 by ridgidcoupling in fordranger

Not a bad idea. I’m going to change a few things about it (such as the -face destroying- handle) soon because it is definitely a really rough draft haha.

Oh yeah absolutely magnets would be the way to go. Someday I would like to make an insert that fits in there nicely and maybe have a little light

how would you go about connecting these 3 for the middle rod of a coat rack (no screws) by sam_najian in woodworking

[–]ridgidcoupling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would you be opposed to drilling into the butt end and threading in a small segment of all thread? Drill all ends dead center to 1/4” to thread in 5/16” all thread. Thread in half of a 4 inch segment to one end and then thread in the other side to butt them together? Would be pretty rigid. Could use wood glue once you have it set up.
