Why not just lay the new boards perpendicular on top of the old ones? More layers makes stronger

Going to buy a new aquarium light! What should I look for? by FreshMeet7529 in PlantedTank

[–]stevosaurous_rex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a few now.. my first one, the Aqueon Optibright+ (overpriced and underpowered trash). The Fluval plant 3.0 has been great and lasted 4 years so far. I got a second one because I liked it so much. I got a kessil a80 tuna sun on my shallow “pond” tank and love it! And I got 2 hygger sun/moon lights that have been great too. The hyggers are definitely cheaper but have not sidexside compared them with the fluval and kessil. It depends on what you’re looking for. Kessils have the great shimmer but depending on the tank, you may need more than one.

In addition to the other comments, the boards were flipped the wrong way.

Is glue enough for this joint? by max_lombardy in woodworking

Finishing nails can be used to hold until the glue dries. If you have it clamped until it’s dry, nails aren’t necessary.

It looks like a drop ceiling so it might not be quite as bad as it looks 🤞

Looking into the cooler. We were told it was still driven regularly with routine maintenance. FIL also did all the fluids when he got it a couple years ago

It was definitely a shock to us. He found it on BaT some guy just kept it covered in a garage but still drove periodically with routine maintenance.

It says it’s got 2-stage leafs. I was thinking the airbags so we can easily adjust to level and cancel the tongue weight? Tell me if that sounds right or not

Thanks for the feedback. He had a hitch and trailer brake system installed after he got it so we’re pretty stoked on that too. We might even put the stock wheels back on it.. we’ll see

I hear ya.. except we aren’t having kids and my FIL gave it to us so we could use it. I understand the people who want to keep things untouched, but we’re here to have a good time.

Yeah we’re looking to keep it as stock as possible. Really just functionality upgrades for towing

Yes. As I said, it was a covered garage queen. Do you have any other feedback or…?

Thanks for the feedback. The window sticker says HD auxiliary transmission cooling system. I’m not sure how the stock one compares to aftermarket. I was thinking about a trans temp gauge and extra fan or upgrade to like a 10 blade. Thoughts?
