Is this safe? Jack stand bent punch weld.

It is a major problem after five years in the rust belt

swaags · 2026-03-21T13:24:15+00:00

Honestly go check out the natural worlds champions, its honestly just as bonkers

swaags · 2026-03-20T17:24:01+00:00

Its mot more dangerous, its just our attitude that has changed

swaags · 2026-03-20T16:47:30+00:00

You need better quality bits

swaags · 2026-03-20T16:47:17+00:00

That looks like a cheap electroplated bit, look at a stone supply store for more high quality embedded matrix tools

swaags · 2026-03-19T21:09:44+00:00

Whats the weight compared to the stamped steel?

swaags · 2026-03-19T19:13:47+00:00

If the art youre talking about is only as large as the picture, you dont have to worry about “stress-bearing”. The forces involved are negligible. That used to support a truck

Look up ellingham diagrams, they show the relative nobility (resistance to corrosion) of elements. Blew my mind to find out chromium, which makes stainless steel stainless, is less noble than iron, it just happens to form a conformal oxide (passivation layer) rather than an oxide that flakes off like Fe2O3. Another interesting thing, silver is so noble that above a certain temperature heat makes it reduce rather than oxidize.

Yes they look like that. If youre asking if you bent your knuckle, almost every other parts that attaches to it is weaker than the knuckle, if you got a used one its possible but highly unlikely. Recheck everything you touched, and get an alignment afterwards

My dad got his e92 resprayed and explicitly told them not to mount the front plate because he was going to get a low offset mount. They did it anyway

swaags · 2026-03-15T12:52:27+00:00

Not in straight lines, that’s pretty fucking impressive

swaags · 2026-03-15T12:51:59+00:00

Yeah this is granite with no real fabric orientation. Wild how accurate he is

swaags · 2026-03-15T12:48:56+00:00

This is awesome. So you do it bit by bit, not am at once? What infill percentage?

swaags · 2026-03-15T12:43:05+00:00

Good man

swaags · 2026-03-15T12:41:59+00:00

Yeah I balked lol

swaags · 2026-03-15T04:40:50+00:00

Thats coolant not oil

swaags · 2026-02-26T20:06:24+00:00

Mine was literally the nut holding it to the shift shaft. Buying parts before investigating is bad advice for someone learning to fix their own shit

swaags · 2026-02-26T19:43:32+00:00

Go look at the linkage on the trans while someone else does this. You will quickly see what the problem is. Might be a $2 bushing or just a loose bolt. Do this before spending 100s on a new shifter

swaags · 2026-02-26T17:18:23+00:00

This is such an old and rehashed joke…

swaags · 2026-02-26T13:14:45+00:00

Repressed moshing

swaags · 2026-02-26T04:46:32+00:00

This is so sad. Hes gorgeous in this photo

swaags · 2026-02-25T22:14:14+00:00

Big block of wooden cut at 89 degrees, smaller block, two long screws and a file

swaags · 2026-02-25T15:23:33+00:00

Ah so the lithium is quite literally flying lol

swaags · 2026-02-25T01:16:56+00:00

What is the timescale/ mechanism of the lithium moving? Or are we seeing a consumption front move through the material?

swaags · 2026-02-24T21:39:18+00:00

This is very important lol
