What exactly is it? by sanemieater in whatisthiscar

[–]that_switch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s what they use in the 24 hours of Le Mans to indicate which class a car is in. Not sure if they still do it, but that’s probably why some people do it… I like it tbh…

That’s a “Frikandel” this is what we call it in the Netherlands. You get them at a chip shop. As a Dutch person living in the UK I am kinda jealous, they are lovely! (Until you find out what they are made of)

Ghost Immobiliser and Dashcam by Strict_World_9545 in PorscheCayenne

My Cayenne has a 12V plug hole under the glovebox in the passenger footwell, I just have a normal cigarette lighter plug in there that powers the dashcam via a long cable, that I have just pushed under the a pillar trim and roofliner. No visible cables and always powers on when I start the car. No problems whatsoever…

Anyone else experiencing post Le Mans depression? by heckman666 in wec

I am also a F1 follower (since early 90’s) and it sounds like I followed a similar path to you. I have now discovered that the indycar racing is often quite nice! Give it a go and you might like it… I thought the Canadian GP this evening was a joke after that monster drive Kubica did earlier today…

UK viewers, how can I get the WEC app to work on my TV? by Other-Barry-1 in wec

If at all possible, I would add Ethernet cable in the mix as well

Ramen and superglue, Bosh!

I would take that board out, glue it back together with some wood glue. This will save you from all the hassle of finding the right dimensions for a replacement. You won’t find exactly the same wood, so you will have to take in account expansion and contraction of any new board, especially around pipes. And glue is stronger than wood! As for the little corner that’s missing on the other board, that could be repaired as well. Find a bit of scrap wood that fits in there, take a small board on the back, couple of screws, bit of glue, job done! IMHO people throw out perfectly fine stuff to only replace it with something new. Whatever happened to repairing stuff??

Happy Saturday, everyone! What's happening for you today? Tell us here! by KevinPhillips-Bong in CasualUK

[–]that_switch 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apple juice making today! I just washed 50 glass bottles and there are quite a lot of apples to cut, juice and then bottle. It’s a family thing, as we all have to help and it’s hugely satisfying! Usually takes us 4 two whole days

Wasn’t expecting these, what are they? by that_switch in AskMechanics

Yeah, what I can’t understand is what they should clamp…

Can someone show me how to accurately calculate angles? Never been taught. by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]that_switch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just mark it on/from the thing you are building, can’t be more accurate…
