Reason your cheap stud finder didn't find the stud: If you _start_ on a stud (or noggin) it won't find anything. If it's not finding anything, start it up again in a different area and try again.

Interesting.

Wait, does someone actually do all this work in front of the box? I thought it was normal to prepare the outlet before, and just connect and screw it in place.

I replaced my faucet by watching this video

I just want to say this video was very detailed. My torsion spring was broken on both sides. I ordered the replacement part on Amazon and alone I was able to replace the spring. Thank you so much for sharing this video ❤

Can I use impact for concrete occasionally? like really hard concrete, max 6mm diameter holes 1 inch deep though.

Awesome straight to the point video- had a broken pronge on a hospital bed and a bew power cord to $90, now fixed for less than $4. Thank you very much!

@8:36 - All of those drills have the "2" settings slotted. What's the difference between "1" and "2"?

Thank you for the plumbers putty tip, super helpful...

I once woke up to a thief in my house searching for money...I quickly got up and started helping.

Yep... that's exactly the way I've done it for years... The trick though is to get those screws set to the perfect depth. His was way too long. You need to screw them in just far enough so that when you slide the strip to the left or right its really snug. Otherwise heat/thaw cycles will eventually have the strip works its way loose. Yep had that happen.

I'm a small, local real estate investor. If I could use this and get a bathroom and kitchen done in a couple of hours rather than paying a crew of drywallers to do all that with drywall over 3 or 4 times the hours and total number of days, that would save me a LOT of money. I'm definitely keeping this in my back packet for future renos.

someone should develop drones for specifically destroying nests

Do that to bees or even wasps in Germany and it'll be up to 50k Euros and/or up to 5 years in jail

Great video, well done.

No mention of cleaning the (electric) heating elements at all?? I've found cleaning the limescale buildup off of them is just as important as flushing the hot water heater tank once per year... ...and my anode rod is still good after 14 years, at least (as is the hot water heater), but getting the two (2) feet of limescale buildup from out of the bottom of the tank wasn't fun (once I realized why my hot water was running out too fast)! 🤣👍

thank you so much! our seat is a little different so it took more than 3 minutes but it's finally not moving around anymore.

Thanks!

Why in the heck they make the holes too small for any normal screw head is beyond me. Superb video though.

Yeah I’m gonna replace it… by calling a garage door company. Great video though.

simple and brilliant. thank you!

Thank you so much!! Those are hard to mount. Have you noticed they dont lie flat when unmounted??

good idea.. and it occured to me that you could mount 2 diagnal pieces of tape upside down from the other strip of tape.. and then when you position the power strip you will have tape to hold the other piece of tape exactly where you want those holes to be?

2 years later, still helping somebody out!

I bought a Mini, and it was great for just me and 1 kid…….now I have 3 kids and the in-laws…..I should have gone to a more reputable dealer🤣🤣🤣🤣

I just changed out a 14 yr old water heater. It was working fine, I just want to determine when it goes out. Guess I'm a control type.

Team horizontal

Super idea, Thanks.

Anything smaller than 1/4-20 is a screw. Anything that’s 1/4-20 or larger is a bolt..

I worked for an old man as his apprentice electrician an learned this... 1st one is common. Labeling is important. 2nd on yes i heard of that. 3rd is common sense. 4th yes, hes right 5th one yes, everything should be grounded. 6th yes if u have extra holes us them. Dont double lap 7th yes label wires that arent wat they seem if its hot it needs to be labeled. 8 i wouldnt do it u can jus buy a breaker that come in a 2 for 1 i call it a dual breaker idk how they pronounce it. 9 yeah fill in any open slots 10 is common sense

I need to start remembering that measuring tape should be the Last Resort. Like there might be numerous times when it's the only way to go. But it seems like there's often a way around it that reduces the number of steps it takes to get the thing done.

Well ill be...

I buy my wiper blades online from Rock Auto, normally $3-5

Ngl I'm happy I found this because my roomate put a massive hole in the wall when I kicked him out

Original installer must have not been good.....😂

This is the kind of video youtube was made for.

So basically indoor vinyl siding?...no thanks.

Had you made the sticky tape long enough to exceed the power board, you could have marked its position on the target surface for precise positioning.

That was brilliant.

Watching . My 62 gallon tank has 1996 on it 😀

I have been blind to the possibilities!

Não gostuei.

widen the base and up the weight and i think it’ll be more effective at driving nails, could make the base modular to add that width for safety + weight and allow less accuracy to compensate for human error.

Yeah, I want to be breathing in pvc particles for decades from those panels.

should u drill in the direction clockwise or counter clockwise ?

Las herramientas que usan baterías únicamente se justifican si donde vas a trabajar NO HAY ELECTRICIDAD, LO CUAL PRÁCTICAMENTE NUNCA SUCEDE, LAS DE BATERÍA SON MUY CARAS, Y SE DESCARGAN CUANDO MENOS LO PIENSAS. Los rotomartillos de cable, son mucho más potentes que los de pila, además que si no usas las pilas varias veces al mes, se termina su vida útil muy rápido, y así, vas a estar toda tu vida comprando baterías muy caras, a menos que compres herramientas chinas baratas, de pilas que no vas a encontrar.

* You're certainly no electrician! (1) Lever nuts are bulky, expensive, and dangerous as hell, as and provide practically no surface area contact, pressure, or nearly the strong secure connection of wire nuts. "Easy" is almost always bad! (2) If you like burning houses down just twist wires together and heat shrink over them. Resistance=heat! Your "knot" ... ha ha .. will quickly fail, if it can even possibly work for a minute, and will heat to a fire hazard! Gerrymandered home repairs like yours are responsible for innumerable bad connections that start fires. Horrible Communist Chinese plastic heat shrink is not UL approved or legal, nor does it provide adequate protection for a bare wire connection. Like all Chinese Communist plastic (Amazon) crap, it will decompose, become brittle, and fall apart in no time. Solder and apply UL approved insulation, or employ properly crimped (Thomas & Betts WT111M Plier Type Crimping Tool) marine-grade insulated butt connectors. Heed the warnings from the actual electrician(s) commenting on this video. The INTERNET: where anyone can gain a platform to say anything, no matter how ignorant, reckless, absurd, or dangerous, worst of all ANONYMOUSLY, destroying all standardized, centralized, vetted information, driving civilization into ruin and regressive abyss !!! Ignorant people destroy worlds and think they did good! The INTERNET, insures that billions participate in this off-hand 24/7 pastime! Just watch Project Farm, where the goofy kid, screaming into his camera from his OSB garage, professes to be expert on every technical item know to humanity, and everything from nuclear chemistry to aerospace engineering, though he's never had a profession or education !!! HE'S INVARIABLE WRONG, BUT HOW DOES ONE UNDO THE WIDESPREAD INFECTION??? I wonder if he can advise me on my upcoming brain surgery !!!

Unless the screws are offset. Then you need more stripes of tape. Good hack.

Interesting idea. I’d maybe consider using it in a garage, even with the important caveats people provide in the comments here. Material science has really blown up the last decade or two. Maybe someone has or could invent a non-toxic, more heat-resistant material that could function similarly?

I’m here because my wall asked me how good my Thai elbows were…
