Also interested in construction and crafting.

So im interested in making a closet. Similiar in the pic.

Any tips on newbies? Just looking for something to do with my hands stead of jacking off to cows...

I know some stuff about types of nails and hinges.

But for this project i just want it to be fire resistant.

So i bought this "Brand" name cordless drill about five years ago. As it was around 30 $, i did not expect anything spectacular. And while it worked, it was grate. But after few months of using it, i noticed that battery drains it self very fast. Regardless if you wore using it or not. After the inspection i noticed that it can not hold any load. i tried reviving it. it did not help. so i searched for a replacement. it cost from 15 $ for flimsy shit china could offer to a ±45 $ which was too expensive. so i went on ebay, ordered some elements. total cost was arround 10 $. and if the mAh is correct, double the capacity. more in the video :

>QUESTIONS THAT DON'DON'T DESERVE THEIR OWN THREAD

Old one reached bump limit, so I'll start a new one beginning with a question of my own. I want to paint my metal exterior (front) door. I have some left over paint and primer in one, interior (probably answers my question right there) acrylic latex paint. After sanding the door a bit, would this adhere to the door, and if so would it hold up alright? Or should I just say fuck it and buy some exterior paint for it?

Please help me guys, for the past year or so I've been tormented by bedbugs. Do you guys now of any remedies, effective pesticides, tips, tricks, etc. I'd really appreciate some advice.

> Be me, living in Germany
> Having a group of 10 friends
> Buying an old, unroadworthy caravan for 350 Euros
> Getting a piece of leased land from one of our grandparents where we may put it

We wanted to renovate the caravan, paint it and rebuild the interior, so we could have a place to chill, celebrate or be alone from time to time.
Now, after three or four months, the "Landschaftsschutzbeauftragter" in our town (the fussy guy hired to protect the landscape) requires the caravan to be removed because of reasons - although it is placed between trees like 100 meters away from the next road and can hardly be seen. However, we need ideas what to do with it!
Problems:
- The caravan can't really be moved, it is placed on a slope, in the meantime it got a flat tire and it is not approved to travel on a street.
- We don't have a power supply near the caravan.
- We don't have an other plot of land to put it onto at the moment.

What would you do with an old caravan if you had one?
What would you do with it in that situation?
If we decided to crush and dispose it due to lack of alternatives, is there anything we should watch out for?
Thanks!

Any other anons here blacksmiths? I'd like to know what kind of forge you have, particularly if you made it yourself. Same goes with anvils. What kind of area do you live in? I live in the borderline ghetto and would like to get some ideas on where I can actually do some forging without dipshits calling the fire department or something.
