[@brianstevens3858]

Don't use salt on a screw hole that will eventually corrode the screw and cause it to let go, Use a wood pin {Toothpicks/golf tee/spoon handle/etc.} if want to use dust use saw dust and glue.

[@jeffbuck2624]

Yeah... and if there is any chance of it ever getting wet, the corrosion will be terrible, but the salt and the screw's hold will be gone.

I agree. they are usually loaded with at least half useless, nonsenible or even more difficult but more complex ways of doing things but this one was nearly all pure brainiac solutions. The one where the guys used a fork to hang a picture was ugly as heck if it was drywall he could have used a sewing needle at a 56-60 degree angle those little things have quite a bit of holding power and make nearly no hole. just don't use the sure thinnest inflexible ones (unless hanging something really light. Also the guy that stuck (forever RUINING the critical factory finish on the drill bit and then wasted 3 black zapstraps making more micro-plastics including that stupid cup, just to mix 1/2 cup of epoxy/resin/activator/colour was mind dumbingly stupid. Popsicle stick or two would work just fine, i've been using a bent a peice of thicker bare wire or even part of an oldmetal coat hanger, i twist them into a spiral or like a kitchen honey utensil or whisk :) Good gomment! -respect and love from Canada ;]

I'm curious what kind of electrical circuit is involved with the the tip of twisting wire with a drill. If that is 120v or 240v, soldering it is a bad idea. A line at that voltage, if it overheats can melt the solder. A wago connector or wire nut are safer choices.

[@kentrussell4007]

It seems to me that if a circuit is carrying so much amperage that it cause a solder connection to melt then there are more serious problems than how the wires are connected at the junction box.

Riddle me that Batman. You edited the video right there where it didn’t completely stop the leak so that you could tell your bff to go turn down the pressure to completely off. Judging by the low psi (20 to 30 max) that was coming out of that electrical conduit (not PVC) - you probably have the other end connected to a submersible pump of some sort and that you could easily unplug or just turn off. Try doing that with a real waterline break where the psi is about 60-80…. You won’t even be able to get that piece of surgical tubing into that pipe… Let alone your index finger.
