  • Forgot to ask my question, if my laptop is dying, what free computer fixing options do I have (I think this has been asked before but can't find it in the mire of other questions)?

    Cheers

  • 1:Backup personal documents to an external drive/flash drive etc.
    2:Buy new laptop

  • Thats the benefit of the plastic cup. Brake a cheap piece which can be chipped/snapped out rather than stripping the threads.

    if you can get it out...

  • You can take the 'fixed cup' side out first, then the plastic cup should come out fairly easily.

  • Im not strong enough to undo my previous tightening (im scrawny)

    LBS it is

  • Where are you?

  • camden evening/hoxton during the day

    Whats up with it? Software issues? If software and windows - ccleaner to clean the registry and remove unwanted software then commodo system to clean the registry then malwarebytes antimalware stuff.

    The microsoft security essential for viruses.

    Anyhting more and it'll cost you ;)

  • camden evening/hoxton during the day

    Where is the bike, have a breaker bar and crank tool.

  • camden, problem i had was the shimano bb tool doesnt go in that deep so it kept slipping when i put force

  • Use a crank bolt/big washer to hold the tool in place

  • Complain to the lettings agent (in writing) that he's taking photo's of your missus.

    Anto stalking legislation can be used to great effect in this situation.
    This.

    I like your thinking.

    In fact, tell the police.

  • Managing agents contacted.

    Proud of my use of 'petty rubbish' and 'rotund' in a perhaps not-so-formal email.

  • can mid-range MTB shoes have the sticky out grippy rubber bits on the sole replaced?
    seems a shame to bin perfectly serviceable shoes because the bits you walk on have been walked on and worn down...

  • Strong glue and tyre rubber? Didn't 31trum do this a while ago?

  • Proud and rotund

    Trufax

  • Strangely enough 'rotunder than I' didn't sound right.

  • Brand new BMX freewheel is catching when I freewheel and occasionally "goes fixed", launching me into the air.

    Two questions:

    a) is it fucked?
    b) did I do something stupid to fuck it?

  • Strong glue and tyre rubber? Didn't 31trum do this a while ago?

    That reminds me.

    What sort of glue do you need to glue shoes back together?
    My DZRs are coming apart due to the awesome power I lay down.

  • what materials is it - rubber to rubber?
    superglue will get most things but is brittle - there's a Gorilla superglue which is supposed to be more resilient but haven't tried it myself.
    araldite/2-part epoxy is less brittle and will bond rubber but can take a while to cure properly.

  • ^^ that looks good!

  • okay, where can I get some thick tyre rubber from...? I don't really want a whole car tyre.

  • BQ: if you want to buy glue in a real shop, like, 4D modelshop have a really good range.
    I was making something out of a mixed recycled plastic board, slightly waxy, that regular glues wouldn't bond with, they had a spray glue and as well as thin superglue types that were amazing.

    I've got some lightly used Halo Knobblers you can have if you come and get them/pay the postage
