The paper hack was just paint. Not plaster. Paint around the hole, stick paper to it then paint over the paper. Even works with news paper. This hack is to quickly hide the hole, not repair it.

[@thomblueart8448]

Y’all are cooked, that was definitely compound. I’m not saying a sheet of paper and some compound can fix a hole, but rolling on compound with a 9 inch roller is a very common and very old technique…any drywaller will tell you this.

Back when I was in high school, we redid the living room of our apartment (with the landlord's approval), replacing the wallpaper with paint.

Standard round toilet can be had at Home Depot for around $140.00 (US). With the wax ring, let's say $150.00 all in. It really is a simple job to replace. First time it took me about an hour, and my skill level is total amateur. Assuming the whole Ramen things can work, you are still going to spend at least $50,00 (US) in materials and special shaping tools. I can't imagine spending less than 3 hours at a professional skill level to shape it to make it look at all nice.

As a man who bought his first home 6 years ago, and still living in it. I had to buy a new toilet in the master bath. Now I don't know the specifics of the issue, I just know, thanks to the drain hole size of my toilet, it added like a $200 PREMIUM to the price of the bowl. Thing cost me $500 for 1 toilet, where if I had a standard drain hole size that most modern homes use, would have been $300. Who knew toilets were expensive?

For the Ramen projects, people tend to fill in the gaps with Ramen dust or crushed Ramen, and I think they go layer by layer, they don't usually stack them in and glue it as a big lump. Some mix in, I think, baking soda. Maybe they all do.

My wife found a painting “hack” with storing brushes/roller if you’re going to continue painting the next day, she wraps them in Saran Wrap and puts them in the fridge. We repainted every room in our house and have used this method quite successfully

My painting hack is to just to clean the brush and roller out at the end of the day. Works all the time every time.

[@DS-ip4ns]

@@1pcfred you’re so good!

[@1pcfred]

@@DS-ip4ns I'm not so good but the brushes and rollers I use are the best. They make what I do come out better. If you try to clean cheap rollers the nap falls out of them. But they'll also do that when you're just using them. Plus cheap rollers just don't hold a lot of paint. That's another painting hack. Use good tools. Oh and good paint. Paint that costs twice as much is twice as good as the cheap crap.

[@FallenWolf64]

[@jmparchives8826]

I’m a painting contractor and all you need to do is wrap the brushes in plastic. Saran Wrap works too. Make sure no air gaps and store in a cool, dark place if possible. I wrap mine until get enough buildup to warrant cleaning

[@briereckersley8823]

I think most UK builds and USA are different due to cost of wood. Our walls are mostly hollow, it's a wood frame with thin drywall, for exterior walls there is insulation. But the real answer is most American walls are mostly air. However, to be fair this is based on my knowledge of American walls and historical differences because of local wood supplies, I don't know much about how modern UK walls are built

[@opie7afe]

Our walls in america used to be framed as normal then thin slats were put on the interior wall with a small gap between and then plaster added on top...which yeah you would bust your knuckles...but times change. Now they just use drywall.

[@pirateadam3686]

@@opie7afeSo what is drywall then? We have gypsum plasterboard that is about 12 mm/0.5 inches thick and is pretty damned strong, especially if you put two layers together. Looking it up drywall (or sheetrock?) also seems to also be gypsum. Are they just thinner, or is there a difference? I do construction so genuinely interested on the differences.

@@pirateadam3686 so its probably the same thing 1/2" seems right but just a single layer. Should be noted im not in the construction trades.

[@Cvoge1972]

Two reasons the ramen toilet did not work. 1) The reason they dumped them into the toilet like they did was they added water. This caused the ramen to stick to itself and removed a lot of the air voids. 2) They cheated. They cut away from when they are shaping the ramen to painting it. They were able to come close, but that shot of the final paint was them just painting an unbroken toilet.

[@OneOfDisease]

they probably didn't use CA glue either. Epoxy with vacuum pumps. Or probably just fake like everything else, way easier to fake it.

[@Corman7088]

~~The Pringle can deal was in Handy Man yrs ago&OK. If it's at home,when you're done painting for the day/altogether. If you have to pour lil more paint out so can load the entire roller up really good then put it in bottom of little plastic grocery bag. If there's print make sure it's on the outside, you'll be able to pull it off the frame too w/minimal mess. Wrap it tight&2nd bag as well seal the lip w/masking tape where you write what it is too. Flat&Eggshell will keep about a year in the fridge crisper. Satin&Gloss 3-6mos. ~~2nd Tip; If you started w/5gal paint transfer what's left to gallon&quart cans. Want store w/as little excess air as possible. Gallon then quart obviously making sure the lids completely sealed then store on a shelf upside down. Moment you store it everything starts to settle&next time you need it'll be 100x easier to mix when everything will be on the top now.
