Saw this on FB today, Ohhh, now I see — the wall wasn't about immigration at all. It was to stop the mass exodus of necked CRTs migrating to Mexico. https://www.facebook.com/reel/732207112877246

That looks excellent with white t-molding!

@Phetishboy I keep coming back to your thread because it gives me hope! Seeing all the work you put in and now actually getting to enjoy it is awesome. I've been grinding away on our place for what feels like forever, and the boring-ass projects just never seem to end. We had a nice setup when...

. Got it figured out—appreciate the help! The issue was just needing to enable the card reader in the config menu. @Andrela nailed it here @CudaSales. I was trying to avoid dragging out the Needhams and dumping the ROM on an offline PC, then moving it over with a thumb drive just to...

I got a quick question about this guy. I've got the MAME library loaded onto the SD card, but I'm not sure how to actually compare the checksum. If it finds a match, does it just tell you what game it is? Jacek and Stephan both said it's doable, but I couldn't find anything in the manuals that...

Dang, If that's the official version, then what did I just order from Temu and why does it vibrate?

Funny enough, when I was in college, my go-to moves were also Thrust and Munch.

Now that the underbrush was cleared, stumps pulled, and the rest of the trees dropped and bucked, we finally got the setbacks marked and excavation rolling. We ended up needing 60 helical piers—which, by the way, can each support a massive load (yeah, like your mom 😏). And this is where things...

Once all the samples came back and we had everything analyzed, it was pretty clear we'd need to go with helical piers—those screw pile foundation systems with steel shafts that get twisted into the ground like giant screws. Solid, reliable, and perfect for the conditions we're dealing with...

So we busted out the killdozer brush hog and cleared out all the smaller trees—just enough to open up a path to the water so the crew could get in and grab some core samples. Man, it's wild how many people start popping up with their hand out at this stage. I honestly lost count of...

@Phetishboy I've had my foot on the mother effin' gas pedal so long, I think my toes have merged with the floor mat. I'm just ready to relax and melt into a lawn chair like a popsicle in July and I dare someone to hand me another damn hammer.

Man, it's been a while since I've really jumped into things around here—"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.". But hey, I did manage to snag a piece of land and kick off a new project! We were hoping to find something a bit tucked away...

The stuff is rad, and getting better everyday. I designed a prompt to analyze the schematics of various monitor chassis, breaking down the role of individual part numbers within each circuit. Using those descriptions, I wrote a program that allows users to input a part number and receive a...

This thread has also been worthy of some serious envy. You keep setting the bar so high, I'm starting to feel like my tool belt is just for show!

Mine was missing the headphone decal, but I figured i'd just line that up with the slot. I did not grab any measurements from the front before the restoration but i did take some photos. Obviously the SNK decal was custom but here's a couple to help guide you. Don't get too caught up in the...
