    External iPhone home button

    Hello So I am wanting to keep my iPhone 8 Plus for as long as I can, I got it when first came out, and want to keep using it for at least another 5 months hopefully until 2017 September new iPhones. About 2 weeks ago, the Haptic Touch of my home button didn’t “press”, but it unlocked and...

    dont understand height of these step ladders

    The highest step you can safely stand on is the platform height about 80cm, but the safe working height is not a set height on the ladder, it’s the total average reach height, based on an average height of a human. 170cm Add this together we get 170cm for average height of human + the height of...

    Long screws - recommendation

    Picture of the work area and a quick drawing explaining it, I hope this makes sense. Pictures look from outside in, the blue arrows are where I want screws, not sure how to get the screws in the between the spacers into the roof, unless I drill a hole threw the door opening.

    Long screws - recommendation

    I am disabled, my legs don’t work properly, they think autism related, I can’t do much, and what I do manage to get done takes me a lot longer than it should. That’s if my body can handle the stress/job, else I have to wait until my body is ready.

    Long screws - recommendation

    Lol… I am such a fool… not sure what my brain is doing most of the time, maybe pain/morphine maybe autism maybe a complete miss reading of the measurements… I need 350mm minimum length, maybe some sort of pocket hole job… You see my tiny workshop started to leak, but that leak got worse and...

    Long screws - recommendation

    Thank you. I had checked all my local stores that should sell screws, there was a couple that didn’t. I get easily distracted and find myself looking for one thing then 4 hours later I am somehow reading something like a battle of world war 2, to my head having a problem with accepted...

    Long screws - recommendation

    Hello I am in the need of about 5 extra long screws for wood/outdoor that is suitable for 4mm or 6mm pilot holes, that is a length of 200mm. Can do a bit shorter with counterbored holes where needed and anything too long I can trim down. I only require 3, but I am after not much more than 5...

    small air compressor usage

    I think I shall see if I can find a second hand one, what would the L would be a minimum capacity, unless I can somehow use the car tyre to have a capacity storage. If that makes any sense… But I realised that I could use it for a simple sandblasting setup.

    small air compressor usage

    I already have the tyre inflator as my sister isn’t great at car maintenance, and was driving around with dangerously low psi, some 20 psi below what it should be. So my mum went and got a half decent tyre inflator, and only really used it the once. But we keep it in the car, as whenever we go...

    small air compressor usage

    Hello I am thinking of getting a small air compressor, but not sure if I would warrant getting one or just stick with a tyre inflator and get an electric staple/nail gun replacement. I currently have a staple/small nailer Stanley TRE550, but it won’t “load” the next nail or staple if the...

    How to quick dry silicone

    Hello Just a reminder, I am autistic and disabled, so can only do stuff on a good pain day, with nice weather. It took me 3 weeks to move my clock to the other wall. Good pain levels now, and nice weather, so I need to rebuild my mini workshop’s roof due to leaking as I couldn’t attach the...

    Building a box calculator?

    Hello Please note, I am autistic and things that seem simple never are for my brain. Where my knowledge, especially maths, sciences, technology, history, geography etc is questioned by my brain into either overthinking or convincing myself that the answer is wrong, even if it is correct. I...

    Best battery? 18650 or 21700

    Reply to all… It’s the actual batteries that are the problem here. As mentioned above by Justin the batteries are the problem, my universal battery charger can only charge the battery any higher than 360mah. The torch is a decent one that I got “damaged” - it was missing the rubber o ring...

    Best battery? 18650 or 21700

    Yeah, they just don’t hold the capacity, I took an old drill battery apart last year which had 18650, 2 out of 3 were completely dead, this battery eventually died too, about 15 hours of use. You would think, but I have a microscope that uses a 21700, and it’s a decent battery, I looked up the...
