When cutting the glass board, even an experienced handyman is of some concerns, because he does not do it so often to get a routine. Cutting the glass straight is not such a science.
If you do not, buy a incisor. It can be more expensive with a diamond tip, but also professionally used cheaper, which have exchanged car wheels. There is also a difference in price. More expensive (eg 250 CZK) will last almost unlimited, with cheaper (eg 50 CZK) you make ten cuts, and dull. You need a ruler. It must be as long as you intend to cut, and such that it does not move during the cut. The wheel is not in the incisor on the edge, think that the ruler has a distance from the measured cut. It is good to place the glass board on a soft background, perhaps on a blanket spread on the table – the cut will be of better quality. Gently soak the incisor wheel in oil, kerosene or diesel and pass it along the ruler in one stroke. Hold the incisor almost perpendicularly and push it to hear the “cracking” all the time. The cut must not be interrupted anywhere. You can go slowly and you can go for the second time, nice from the edge to the edge. Without unnecessary delay, place the glass with the cut exactly to the edge of the table (without a blanket), hold the part on the table with the open palm and break the other by jerking downwards.
Drilling of glass is more complicated. But about that another time.
Handyman’s insights
Wing nuts You can use the cables. Stick them with cloves or screws.
At the end of the top Glue the magnet and then you will be better collected by fallen nails.
Sometimes you needto open the combinations themselves. Burn the groove into the plastic handle and insert the spring from the office clip into the plastic handle. The spring can be removed at any time.
If you drill wood throughAlways support it on the reverse with a bar. The drill drips smoothly and the edge of the opening in the wood will not be so frayed.
When cutting the beam It can run away and the cut is not straight. Make a tool (in Fig. Gray). Drill shallow holes and glue the magnets into them with a second glue. They will hold the saw perpendicularly in the first moments before they cut into the beam.
My tip – furniture gas pistons
They are on both sides to lift the door evenly. But after some time they begin to weave and you have to replace them, both. With a screwdriver, underbar the cotters above the joints and remove them, then remove the bars. You buy new ones and snap them into the joints, there is no need to screw anything. But beware, the pistons must be as long as the original ones and both must have the same value – 80 N is enough. Fortunately, the joints and distances are the last decades normalized.
Captivated on the Internet – how to cut the sheets
For an amateur, this is not exactly a slight discipline when it needs the cut to be accurate, clean and not hurt itself. In addition, they must have corresponding shears on a baking tray or special electric tools. In e-shops, however, also sell attachments that you clamp into the drill. There are several slightly different types, and according to what internet videos also show, you can work with them as if you were cutting paper, it is so simple. Good idea. However, I noticed that serious dealers warn that the attachment is not suitable for bent, knurled or otherwise shaped sheets.
Fished from the archive – garden shelf
Behind the back bar you screw the shelf to the wall (around the edges and in the middle), so in the front bar you must drill the hole for the screwdriver. Others are evident from the photos.
From your own experience
Before you screw in the bolt screwmake a depression for the head. It is sufficient to “drill” in the pre -drilled hole several times with closed splitters.
DIY HEJETON – they are already in them again
If you put together two or more cords, no matter what you do, they always get cracked.
And they can be laundry ropes, electric lines or laces, the result is always the same. Intertwine. As a handyman, she delays me when I need one particular cable, find a ball and I have to work physically and mentally to get them apart. When it comes to prevention, I tried everything: cords equal, wrap, place side by side, futility over vanity. Just turn around and they are in each other. I even slid up and hidden, nothing, the cords got tangled without noticing anything. And I’m a good thing. It is normal to throw such a ball. I know one who is able to grab the splitters, cut healthy pieces of cables and re -establish them, because it stresses it less than if he was to untangle the snap. But I also know people who tighten, thread and knock even more in an effort to unfold the cords. It is not enough to count in ten anymore, it wants a psychologist. Or a straight bed with a psychiatrist.
Then things have no soul. Have. And some extra malice.
