I wish everything was torx.
They are great

>>1080371
Well jews are mostly highly educated and knowing that probaby make up a good portion of engineers as such. Star shaped provides more surface area.

Never did it myself but I wouldn't be surprised if torqx used the golden ratio.

>>1080371
So what, just use a regular jewdriver

Spot welding batteries is done by closely spaced flat electrodes with both on the tab to be welded, not one on the battery terminal and one on the tab.

Though it does make me wonder if I could re-purpose an old audiophile cap. The 1 Farad ones that are used for stabilizing automotive power in competition setups.

it's going to look cheap regardless, best bet would probably be paint

Rotary cut veener. Good edge banding, use solid wood, not that plastic shit like on prefab caninets.

Sorry, I mean furniture where the plywood is left as is, excepting varnish or poly coats. I legitimately like the look of plywood as a material and I'm wondering if it's actually possible to make good looking furniture out of it or if it only really works in set-dressed photography.

can't use lights? high humidity? arn't scorpions are found in the desert? like. no. recreate natural habitat. fucking hit that shit with light, but get it a wooden log or some shit to hide under.

>>1092971
lights are bad for scorpions. I have an emporor scorpion which needs high humidity.

Pretty sure your "aesthetics" is just acquired taste from know they are better quality and have a generally better finish.

Also beadblasting generally looks better than no finish.

I'm with you on Knipex though

>>1092865
Those knipex pliers. Always springy and feel like I'm gonna snap them.

Handles touch.

Monster mutherfucker or grip on any nut.

Sharp teeth.

Center the shingles on the little roof. Do the same for the main roof. You might have to do a lot more cutting though.

>>1092617
dry fit your ridge vent and pull measurements off it.

>>1092617
Start from the leftmost corner of the main roof. Then backtrack the last 2 feet. Be careful prying the shingles when tucking the last 2 feet in.

>>1092608
It should ship fine. They should also have those at craft stores, though. And depending on where you live, there might be cheaper options at some surplus stores.

>>1092608
I have a clear one. No difference really. Buy bigger than what you think you need. Also if it gets curled from shipping I found if you set em on something flat like plywood and stick in the sun(a hot car works amazing well) they'll lay back down on their own.

>>1092608
I've ordered a few of them from amazon, all have arrived fine.

You can't put sperm into cryostasis in your freezer.

>>1092535
No worries OP. Just leave it in the Kleenex collection under your bed. It will be fine.

Sure, just set grandma's freezer to -196 C. And get pic related, cuz that is actually full of liquid nitrogen and frozen sperm. andrology reporting in.

motor, gears, nicad battery (or maybe a supercap), leds, a diode or two, a couple of resistors. it takes 60 seconds to open one.

bulb, battery, dynamo, maybe a pcb if it blinks or has other functionality than on/off. nothing that interesting.

>>1092269
And I wouldn't be able to discern what is what. I'm thinking of ghetto rigging it into something much larger and brighter, something like a miniature mounted spotlight. And I've never made anything, before. Seems like fun.

Movie bullshit

>>1092244

This. You could patch together something, but no system exists like this. You could do picture in picture on your TV to display the video from a Webcam you have outside your door. You would have to do that manually though. Then you could buy one of those remote control deadbolts and unlock it from your phone when you see someone that you want to let in.

>I was a random autistic kid that was running into traffic
fix'd that for you

>>1092162
You don't.

I'm too lazy to google for you, but you may be able to cast the screen to a TV or your monitor with some sort of connector, then use a Bluetooth device that can control the phone.

Honestly, you're pretty fucked unless you replace the screen. Even buying a new screen to connect temporarily would work.

>>1092162

Take out the SD card and hope it's saved on there.

>>1092035

i dont think foam would be dense enough to take a good punch? unless you can fold and wrap it easily sometime.
would sand be better or maybe a combination of the two?
also, how are your sewing skills?

In a gym I used to go, they had tyres mounted perpendiculary to the wall for uppercut training. I don't know, maybe you can check out the idea

>>1092435
how long were you in prison for?

>>1092014
holly shit what are the regulation over ther is the pipe the property od the gas company? that thing shoudl be remade - buried deep

>>1092017
I'm not exactly sure what the depth is, I would assume at least 18 inches at the minimum. Sadly this is my side of the meter and I would have to foot the bill. I would really like to sit the installer down in a chair and rip out teeth for this.

>>1092023

Lol no. West coast US it's 3 feet minimum.

>>1091920
y tho

>"xxxxxx hunters"

I guess its a good think they demonstrate their lack of imagination when it comes to these shows so we know which ones to avoid.

>>1091920
No

under-tile insulation boards exist but the R-factor's not great
you won't get warm comfy tiles without insulation AND underfloor heating
