Hi Everyone,
I recently got a $3000+ water bill from Sydney Water which made me really sad. However, that was not the worst thing – I hired a Leak Detector to detect the leak (cost $400) and then hired a plumber to replace the pipeline (cost $1600) – guess what happened? The leak remained!

we've been looking at two different programs and wanted to get some feedback from fellow dirt bunnies. Our company has been doing nothing but bid for the last three years, and about out of every 50-60 jobs bid, we will get one. I'm spending 7/8 of my time stuck in front of my screen instead of...

The area is going to become a wet tipping area for grain so will need to be hard-wearing and resistant...
I'm about to replace two small deck surfaces over living areas, and perhaps convert another large deck to waterproof construction to allow storage underneath.
What's common here (and the one that needs replacing) is fabric layers embedded in acrylic latex, followed by a topcoat. Relatively easy...
a few years ago we got a Jackson welding helmet from Fastenal esab sentinel a50 review, supposed to go from 9 to 13. I think it's coming to the end of its usefulness, so I grabbed the old fixed shade spare helmet, a lot better, so for occasional use what works> I was looking at harbor freight...
So in a coilgun, I need to know how long the electromagnetic field has to be to propel a .336kg mass at 500m/s^2 (a force of 168N) in each coil
There are five coils, each one 1m apart strength of the electric field.
What's the formula to achieve the necessary em field strength to propel the...
I have been wrenching on farmer's older tractors for years and liability insurance hasn't been a concern. I have though recently began performing some repair work for a multinational aluminum plant on their scrap trailer tipper trucks and a Broce broom. I was called about a failed fifth wheel...
