Top Tips and Tricks

[@RagingEggs]

I feel like this was made by someone who has just now discovered tools but never seen anyone use them.

[@BugJuiceFlavor]

They probably saw it somewhere and thought it was clever, but they aren't. One hack job influences another.

[@himbromann8561]

I’d let my children watch this over gaming videos or skiibbidy any day

[@angelinthecenterfold]

The hammer one was most telling.. like dude just flip the hammer around, put the nail on the claw, punch in the nail, then pound it in.. 🫠

[@ChapsShrugged]

Never used a wingnut screwed upside-down as a retainer or used a half cut bottle to catch debris though.

[@genghisgalahad8465]

For the same kinda person, too! 😅

[@chandlerbraaten847]

Putting a wedge in the wood handle of an axe or hammer isn't exactly a hack. Its just how they are made. 😂

When I saw him putting it in 90 degrees off kilter, I was like "WTF?!?", and then I realized those fingers probably belong to a millenial and I was born in the mid-sixties and then I channeled my inner Carl (from 'Sling Blade') and said to myself - "He's jussta boy..."

[@deusmuerte6832]

Yep and they where made this way since like eternity.

[@77thTrombone]

DO NOT run cables in direct contact with a wood screw (or bolt.) If there is the least jostling/vibration/movement, the screw will eventually cut through the insulation.

[@Confoundedjoe]

Also bags of wire guides can be had for a pittance.

[@johnbeargrease6784]

As an electrician I think people get too paranoid about strapping wires. How shaky is your house that thhn wire rubbing on smooth metal will cause failure of the insulator?

[@77thTrombone]

@@johnbeargrease6784 I wasn't talking about smooth metal. I was talking about threaded fasteners, particularly the threads. I was thinking about situations in close proximity to washers/dryers, dishwashers, central air blowers. I just wouldn't let a conductor rub against a sharp edge. Contact against smooth metal? Like you, I see no risk there either.

[@Dargonhuman]

@@ImGoingSupersonic I'm not even tool savvy and I was saying the same thing. Is the tip that purpose built tools exist for very niche uses?

For that copper pipe.. you shouldn’t strap a pipe with a strap of different material. It leads to corrosion.. that strap should have been copper instead of brass

Kris the galvanic action between copper and brass is minimal - they're fairly close on the spectrum.

[@jbj27406]

@@openeyes-411 Agreed. Brass IS copper--with added zinc.

[@DirectCurrent4u]

I used these straps to hang all my towel racks and curtain rods in my house. No corrosion at all so far。lol 🤣

[@davidreilly1031]

Galvanic corrosion occurs when anodes and cathodes are touching, those brass Munsen rings are designed specifically to hold copper pipe. Some plumbers used to leave an iron nail on a copper pipe, to cause corrosion so they get future work fixing a leak.

Good luck finding a compression fitting made out of copper! It doesn't really lend itself to thread cutting.
