There, I Fixed It - Redneck Repairs

Historical Thursday: The Underwater Aircraft Carrier

Feb. 9, 2012

x

When you put together the words ‘Japan’ and ‘Navy’, it generally doesn’t conjure up the happiest thoughts or memories for people from the good ol’ US of A. But with a good number of decades behind us and peace between our nations, I think it’s okay for us to marvel at their engineering prowess without getting chased across the border with pitchforks. And believe me, the I-401 is something to be gawked at. The largest submarine in history at its creation, this thing was literally made to carry planes underwater.

Words From Your Overlord

Hey Fixers, starting Monday February 13th you’re going to notice a few visual changes. We’re trying to make our content a bit cleaner so we’re getting rid of those Tweet/Facebook Like/Email buttons on the bottom and moving the Add to My Site button next to the Facebook Share button. Here’s a preview:

white trash repairs - Words From Your Overlord

The biggest change you’ll notice is the lack of voting. We’re getting rid of voting on the front page for now (it’ll come back in a more meaningful way in the future) but it will remain on the voting page so you can still influence what gets featured. You can express your rage/joy/apathy in the comments below. Cheers!

white trash repairs - This Thing Has Great Shelf Life

From the submitter:

Had an older desktop that kept overheating, so I just chucked the case, hung it on some wire shelving and it works like a charm. The next step is to get an adaptor for the laptop screen so that the whole thing is self contained and will only have the power cord hanging off of it. This was just a trial run and I may find a better way to hang everything, other than zipties. Ont eh other hand, it’s a superior kludge this way, I just need to incorporate some duct tape…

Okay, okay. The merry-go-round horse is quirky and fun, but did you seriously have to put pegs on a beach cruiser? Neigh to you, sir.

white trash repairs - Hungarian Heating

The Hungarian Forint is used in very large quantities ($1 USD = 218 Ft) so the government recycles a few tons of it every year. After shredding it and bundling it into bricks, the currency is shipped to charitable organizations to help with their heating cost.
