REDNECK ENGINEERING

[mean4green]

Wassup Ladies & Germs.

I thought I would start a thread featuring Redneck Engineering.

Projects around the house, auto/truck fixes, outdoor related - you name it - redneck engineering is sometimes the best way.

I figured with the wealth of knowledge, imagination, and paranoia among the members of this site,

There should be plenty of examples of redneck engineering projects.

I'll start it off

with a toilet.

About a month ago, that flimsy plastic toilet handle broke off at the arm while flushing the toilet - I think the chain must have been tangled.
Nevertheless - another little fix-it project.

For a short term fix - I pondered a bit of Redneck Engineering:

1 - New Shoelace
2 Tied a Loop in one end (a.k.a pull handle)
3 Run shoelace through hole where handle existed
4 Attach tag end of shoelace - via knot - to flapper - point where chain was attached.
5 Flush and be happy.

I had company yesterday and each person commented about it.
Both genders thought it was cool.

So, the Redneck Toilet Handle is staying. (and it ain't made from cheap Chinese plastic).

Many on here are really good with their hands ....... I'm not one of them. I do my best but I can talk the talk but not walk the walk.

Funny thread mean4green.

Here is one that fits right in. I used to have a cabin in a little hick town in the mountains 90 miles from Denver. The locals there could fix anything because you couldn't get anybody to do anything. All those boys care about is hunting and fishing when the season rolled around.

This is a picture of the local bar in town. Dive bar to say the least. Owner put two urinals outside the back door....notice they aren't hooked up so when the town drunk decides to drain the main vein he is pissing on his foot.
