- Comment on Repairing Broken Sofa? 4 days ago:
Yes, it’s repairable, but it’s fairly involved. A fair amount of the sofa needs to be “undone” to get the arm off. How much work that is depends on how the couch is constructed. Then it becomes a matter of matching the leather, which probably won’t be possible to make it invisible.

I am an expert. Or at least an upholsterer. When you say the leg broke, what broke? Did it snap? Did it push into the sofa? Some legs have a bolt sticking out and screw into a T nut that is on the inside of the sofa. Image
Sometimes that punches in and just spins when you turn it. You have to pull the bolt out as hard as you can and try to get those prongs to grab wood. Most legs are one of 2 sizes. You could find another leg and bolt it back on.
It may also be a block of wood that screws to the bottom of the sofa. The holes are probably hidden by the felt scuff pad thing.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with propping it up on a brick or book or whatever. If you want to be less ghetto, take a leg from the back and move it to the front so your guests can’t tell your couch is propped up on blocks

I think they’re cheap stairs without the bullnose. Makes it way easier to carpet. By the looks of the trim this is not a fancy apartment. The lack of bullnose contributes to the optical illusion.

You think a folded in half mattress could get stuck in a stairwell? You might be on to something!

It depends on where you draw the line of collapse. For me I’d say it kicks up a dust cloud. Everything else is just ‘falling apart’.

I just watched a YouTube about that condo collapse in Florida. People were point to cracks and spalling concrete for quite a while before it suddenly collapsed. 60 days before it fell an engineer came up with a plan to fix it but it fell before anything was done. That’s scary as shit.

- Comment on Arts & STEM 4 weeks ago:
Art is about analyzing the questions, design is about analyzing the solutions. Many engineers I’ve met get wrapped up in the process and fail to address the actual issues.
This guy is the textbook example. His projects always go down deadends and lose scope. He would definitely be better off with some CAD (Cardboard Aided Design) before he runs off to his CNC mill with a $200 block of aluminum.

In Canada we call it STEAM now. Because where the hell do you think design comes from?

Does anyone remember canv.as? I loved that site. It was a really okay photo editor that’s better than every other free option around now. Me and the other guy who used it were so sad when it folded.

As a tradesman I feel this way about massage therapy. It feels good and it helps, but then I have to work more to afford it thus making my body worse.

My grandma had a padded pink vinyl toilet seat that matched the Barbie and the toilet paper. When you sat on it it slowly squished all the air out. It was an awful feeling.
- Comment on That's me 1 month ago:
Are you old enough to remember those Barbie dolls that old ladies used to crochet a dress for so you could stand Barbie up in a roll of toilet paper and the dress would get pulled down over it? And the toilet paper was light pink?

Remember how people used to collect tiny spoons? This is like that. Now it’s towels that say “Fuck off kid, mommy’s getting plastered” Bonus points if you hang it on a shitty wooden ladder.
