> pipe
Is a rigid tube meant for the transport of gases or liquids (sometimes solids)

> duct
Is a tube meant for the transport of solids or gases, may be flexible, may be ridgid. The term is used way more for tubes or pipes that transport air than it is for tubes that transport liquids or other gases. “Gas duct” and “water duct” may be technically correct but to most people duct refers to a pipe or hose used to transport air

> hose
Any flexible tube used for the transport of liquids or gases (and sometimes solids)

>>2792463
thanks for the detailed breakdown. I'll probably be ok, but if I run into trouble I can't imagine reciting all that to a perfect stragner. Maybe I'll reconsider the personal project and look around for one that doesn't involve a deep knowledge of technical matter.

block one end so it doesn't spin and pry outwards against the other end you fucking imbecile

>>2792454
you're entering the 7th level of mechanic's hell
i'd probably try to use a little dremel cut off wheel to delete as much of the broken ring as possible. if you're lucky you'll grind it thin enough it to be able to bend it and dig it out

If that pic is inside your house I'd say you've already maxed out the potential and can spend all that spare cash on sex, drugs, and rock and roll.

I have a handheld one that's just for spot cleaning, can use it on anything, carpet, upholstery, clothing. It might ruin some delicate fabrics but cotton does fine.

>>2792423
Same as this anon, a green one. It’s okay. It’s gotten pretty gross over the years but it keeps my fabrics pretty clean as long as I use it quickly after the stain occurs. For stuff that’s set in it helps but I think you need something more powerful and/or to accept the limitations of reality?

I'm okay with it.

It's pointless the only solution is to burn the whole thing to the ground and build a new one.
OP is just in denial about reality.

>>2792406
No Jerome. You can't go in.

bait bait bait fucking bait. they put those things up during construction for safetl/liability but they have to remove them and put proper steps or deck before it can be sold.

>>2792406
If need help to remove this you do not need to he installing stairs. If you are having someone install stairs for you they will take it off.

It is a dont sue me because your dumbass face planted out the back door

Thread tape the dingus ends if you're concerned about catching the galvanic gooch rot.

>>2792435
teflon tape does not provide electrical insulation. it fills the gaps where the metal does not touch, but in general the metal will cut through the tape. this is 100% true for pipe fittings, and probably true for OP and his hose that he's using to provide water to the ISS and has to comply with the galvanic corrosion spec.

>>2792396
Kek. I have like a year old hose that’s already fucking seized. I feel ya breh. That hose bib is coming off whenever the hose is done. What a shitty idea, especially considering it’s the better model from Home Depot with big fittings that looked easy to remove.

>>2792379
Ok, yeah, I did think so, drill bit and spanner bit for recessed heads, dremel for accessible heads

But what if you have, say, an M1.0 screw, in a recess? You'd be fucked

That and the manufacturer does not deserve my transparency

>>2792381
Use the one with holes in it for those Allen sizes

The security hex and security Torx will also take off hex and Torx without the security nub

Allow me to clarify: I want to aggressively go to the limits of the law, to solve problems I have not yet come across, to spite all manufacturers, including those I've never heard of.

I want all the data on all the screwdrives, especially those used on consumer products, such as the ones in the image, which is used in Toyota electric car batteries iirc

>>2792395
Look up patents. There will/might be scale drawings in there.

Also there is no "law" to prevent you from owning any type of tool for these. If you want to really become all capable invent a self stopping milling bit capable of eating itself into any fastener head till it stalls to then be used to unthread the fastener and throw it away.

Buy the bit you need when you need it.
Then you never have extra shit you don't need, but you have everything you've needed at least once.

That's my tool philosophy.

>>2792349
you know you can't expose pex to the outdoor sun right? why do you even need hot to your door kitchen to come from your house? just buy one those cheap camp boilers for hot water and connect a small tank just ensure your water lin is below frost line.

OP not just gay but retarded as well

>>2792307
>rent a chainsaw

Jesus. What kind of manlet doesn't have at least one chainsaw?

>>2792307
No, you'll probably kill or maim yourself, chainsaws can be pretty dangerous beasts and trees are trickier than you think.
Get a silkie saw instead. much harder to kill yourself with.

>>2792283
your landlord or maintenance guys are gonna steal the tools from you anyway.

>>2792283
>I can't move

Ever or yet? I suggest doing what I did and do which also prepares you for the future. It's easy to optimize compact shop equipment that's highly mobile by putting your tools,equipment and supplies in/on apartment-friendly industrial plastic carts with non-marring casters and especially medical carts (which sell for thousands new but dirt cheap used) which have features like display arms, backup batteries and space for SFF computers.

>>2792302
>Ever or yet?
Not in the foreseeable future no.
>Corded
>Jigsaw x2
>Drill x2
>Angle grinder
>Drill press
>Circular saw

>Battery
>Drill
Besides the press I have every other tool in their original box, then a bunch tool boxes with hammers, pliers, screwdrivers, spanners, ratchets, etc. a cart will be another thing to occupy space.

>>2792283
Find an affordable 24/7 storage unit place nearby. I know a lot of tradies that live in small apartments but store all their tools in a storage unit. Most have electric outlets.

>>2792283
Why'd you spend all your money on tools you can't use instead of saving it to buy a house?

>>2792281
Good idea. What if someone's too tall and can't fit under the table?

Actually nvm you could just have them do a upward facing dog position with their hands up and locked in. It'd just be really uncomfortable

>>2792422
what a shame. I've never been there but from images I've seen, the east coast is simply beautiful up that way.

>>2792425
It is, but it's not cheap to live here. I mean yeah no income or sales tax is nice but my property tax is quite high, 2.7% of assessed value, and because it's a pretty wealthy white state there's very little discount stores or ways to get things cheap. No mexicans at my home depot...

>>2792409
That's a skid steer, not an excavator but might serve your purposes better. Excavators are better for precision, skid steed for bulk movement.

Jesus youre weak. Try shoveling 16 ton-of 2” clean in 4 hrs….

my dad uses this kind

>>2792248
i bought the chinkshit variable speed version off amazon (wen brand.) it works fine. i wouldn't waste money on official Dremel™.

>>2792255
Cordless or no?

>>2792258
Almost all of the cordless ones are gutless unless you go with something like the M12, and they also have die grinders which are like a slightly larger dremel. Once you get a 12V battery pack on there though, it’s going to be a bit more bulky for what is considered a precision tool.

Also the Wen might be straight for your uses, but the nice thing about the name brand Dremel is all of the attachments they offer. If you do go name brand Dremel tho, don’t get the cheapest one. It’s not worth buying the name brand if it won’t work with the flexi shaft and router/plunge base and all the cool shit they have. The father in-law had some cordless NiCd one that was fucking awful and I had to grab mine to finish the job.

>>2792227
what about him? you want him to notice you and kiss you?

>>2792227
But can he edit a Wera unboxing video?

>>2792227
Wera stuff is for these types of dudes

I’m a snap-on/Matco for lower end stuff and nepros for higher end guy myself

I noticed that most guys that are into tools tend to be less informed/dumber

So it’s really easy to build up a tool collection to flex on them if you take advantage of all the discount/review and other programs

You're both tool polishers in every regard.

Any idea which scheme of step file I should export from FreeCAD?

>>2792444
shouldn't matter. Whatever CAD/CAM they're using should import the step file fine, if it doesn't then it'll be obviously broken and they'll ask you to re-upload it.

>>2792447
I'm saving it as millimeters, but it's only displaying correctly on the site if I choose inches as my unit. I feel like it's gonna be fucked up. But it's only like $20, so, fuck it.

>>2792452
probably a mismatch between the save settings in cad. it should give you a rough size before ordering. go off that because that's what you'll get

In general you get a superior product from not using heated air. A box fan with some racks will make better beef jerky or dried fruit than a $500 dehydrator because it won’t cook the stuff as it dehydrates it. They all have pretty shit temp controls with wild swing, they’re just poorly constructed convection ovens, and when the heat element kicks on the temperature can swing wildly. I tried one (granted it was a cheaper model) where an rtd inserted in the chamber showed a spread of +-28F from set temp during drying. Critical reviews from people who know their shit seem to suggest the $500 ones have similar issues, though not as bad.

>>2792179
>>2792191
Diy dehydrator thread? I want/need one too. They all seem to be cheap, with more expensive ones just bigger. I want to dry herbs, spices and berries from my garden.

Any more details on the diy box fan idea? I can work with rtds and relays. Should I add a big ceramic tile for thermal mass or something?

>>2792191
>In general you get a superior product from not using heated air.
now this is interesting to me, wouldn't that take fucking forever though? have you tried that? what was your set up?
>A box fan with some racks will make better beef jerky or dried fruit than a $500 dehydrator because it won’t cook the stuff as it dehydrates it.
so i thought the idea was that they don't cook it, just warm it, to about 60C max, which is enough to aid evaporation and make the drying quick enough that bacterial/fungal growth doesn't happen, which is what would happen with no heat.
basically, in making jerky, if you just hang the meat out with no heat, i thought it would go rotten before it dries.

>>2792193
>rtds and relays
you can work with retards and relays? you are fully equipped to post on /diy/. carry on.

>>2792193
serious reply now; i am thinking either, hair dryer on low, or even a heat fan on low, directed into the box. although i feel like they'd both be too hot even on low. additional internal fan for circulation because, who on /diy/ doesn't have a massive surplus of fans?
I have a broken electric oven I can use for the main thing, has racks already.
How much ventilation do these things need? I know they need some, i'd like a better look at the commercial ones, see how ventilated they are.
>berries
you could probably benefit from using some fine stainless steel mesh on your racks. could repurpose a sieve or frying pan splatter protector thingy.
I might try to get something like a small radiant electric heater or one of those ceramic tube heaters.
