Also, I get it’s a restoration project, which are fun and wholesome, but Fuck push saws.

Pull saws are where it is at! Easier to keep on target, less work, and you can’t crease the blade on a cut and ruin the whole fucking saw

Though, I’ve never seen a pull saw you can play with a bow

I think you’re the only other fucker in this thread who may have used their hands before

How do you clamp a bolt head that’s recessed?

Drilling a spinning bolt is Not Easy. Not impossible, bit there’s better ways to go about things

No he fucking doesn’t

Wood glue isn’t going to hold on metal at all.

Anti-seize to stop spinning? What? No. Anti seize is shit you put on threads so that when you come back years later, they still move.

Long acting lubricant.

And drilling out a bolt that’s already spinning isn’t going to be a fun time

Super glue is super brittle. Will fail at the first bit of force

There’s no glue or epoxy on earth I’m aware of that will hold on metal well enough to handle the force of unscrewing a bolt.

You might solder nuts to either side, that might hold and be reversible.

The suggestions of drilling it out also won’t work well, if it’s already spinning in place, it will spin faster.

I know you don’t want to, but cutting a slot is your best bet. If you do it clean, it’ll just look like a screw. You could replace with a rivet if you really need a non-screw look for the finish

Super glue is super fragile

man we are all gonna end up in Gain Ground

You know, fairy tales for children generally involved horror, murder, dismemberment and worse.

To get the kids to be aware of the actual horrors of the world, which are worse.

Hearing a story about, or seeing a fictional or even actual video of some of the fucked up shit people do to each other for stupid fucking reasons is still not actually traumatic.

Experiencing depictions of such shit should absolutely bother you. Should absolutely put you a bit on your toes, in real life, on the daily.

So you can avoid those situations. So you know shit like that’s possible, and fucked up fuckers have done it and will do it, and they’ll think they’re right the whole time.

Because when it does actually happen, that’s when it is traumatic, and not just being smart and aware

Ruining your day isn’t ruining your life.

Life sucks. Get a helmet

eh, shit i’ve read and seen on a screen, while it may have bothered me at the time, isn’t actual trauma, which does not fucking ask permission.

And yeah, there’s media that triggers that-but it’s media. I close it. I leave. I can. it’s not actually happening to me, right now.

I think it’s a decent notion, to annotate. It’s for sure people trying to be good for one another, and that’s laudable.

But. As I said, the worst of the world does not ask permission, and I think enforcement of content tags or what have you would likely lead directly to even more oppression and censorship in the storm of that which we are currently in.

I will say ao3’s pretty on point about it, from what i’ve seen-it’s voluntary, and it’s actually voluntary. How you keep that across the ages is anyone’s guess

And just for the record, passenger in a warthog was my FAVORITE position in the truck. In Halo 1.

Sure, it’s less effective, but it’s way more accurate. Actually feels like riding shotgun, where you can’t see everything, and you sure as shit don’t have a stable firing platform. Super fun. In game.

The number of of times the passenger with the rocket launcher murked our own damn selves was… More than one. lol

Did you know, you can basically feed the warthog rocket fuel? Unfortunately, the speed boost usually kills the occupants

One of the best I still somehow remember vaguely:

Down to 1v1, happens while T is planting. He pulls knife, bangs it on stuff. CT pulls knife, runs in.

They dance in the zone, and T just dodges and gets close and dodges and gets close and milks time till the bomb won. So good.

Blood Gulch, obviously

We tried ghosts, but they’re so much harder to tip it didn’t really work. Though the matches where someone tried a ghost vs warthog were usually pretty good.

get murked. ghost back out to your old hog, get yeeted, lure the opponent into the trap in the cave, heave a well placed grenade, and steal his hog. Murder the fuck for his troubles

Also so good from back in the day it got turned into a forced standard on some servers: Down to 1V1 in CS? Knife fight about it

So fucking good. sometimes the bomb won. sometimes one guy was an asshole and shot the other guy

This sounds great

Jesus christ

Demolition Derby in Halo.

No shooting, you get in the Hog and wreck the other fucker out of their rig, then run them over. Frag grenades sometimes legal, depending on who you were playing with.

Played a 4 player variant where the passenger got a rocket launcher-no gunner
