Camping At A 100 YEAR OLD Dam | Solo Camp & Cook | Relax Cozy Campfire ASMR
Construction of this multi-arch, buttress dam began in 1919 and was finished in 1923. The dam stands at 92 feet high by 1,700 feet wide, constructed of reinforced concrete. Over the century, the consequences of constant exposure to the harsh elements, including freeze-and-thaw events, has led to the slow deterioration of the dam. When irrigators explored the cost of rebuilding the dam, the estimate ranged from $11 to $20 million. Due to its growing instability, in 2005 the DWR ordered a larger spillway to be cut into the side of the dam in order to keep the maximum water level from rising too high. In 2007, the Association of Dam Safety released a list of 14 dams in the state that are con...

CRACKED Flexplate In My Tacoma! Did dealership's prior work cause it?

It's not very often that a Flexplate cracks, let alone in several places. Unless of course, there was prior transmission work done from a Toyota Dealership and all signs certainly suggest a bit of installation negligence. But of course, we can only prove so much.

    The one area of concern would be elevated temperatures. On a very hot summer day, if you paint a panel black (or other dark color), and considering the very good thermal conductivity of aluminum the bond could be significantly weaker. With that said, removing VHB tape sealing a computer screen to a device using a hot air station still takes a lot of effort. Even with a weaker bond, it would take a significant amount of force to separate the parts.

I’m a big fan of pre fab smaller parts and then bringing it all together plus I’m learning it’s easier to build for the product rather than find the product for the build if that makes any sense.

    The problem with DIY folks using VHB tape for adhering things is that many DIY folks fail to prep the surface properly. I've seen them using the tape while doing virtually no surface prep whatsoever and also failing to follow the very specific instructions provided by 3M. Applied to dirty skoolie roofs with sketchy paint jobs, for example. No, I do NOT want to be following that thing down the highway, thanks. The examples of the commercial uses of these tapes shows that they certainly CAN perform under tough conditions but you can bet that the tapes were used with extreme caution and strict adherence to whatever protocols applied to the type of tape used, the surface to which it was applied, and the items that were secured. It's all about the prep and proper application.

    Gotta say I'm not really sure why the dealership would of removed the flexplate while replacing the transmission.. if I'm not mistaken the flexplate is mounted to the engine, it wouldn't be necessary to remove in order to replace the transmission or to replace a clutch.. at least not on any vehicle I've worked on.. almost sounds like a manufacturer defect from a lazy or improperly trained individual individual installing it incorrectly during the manufacturing process.. had an older vehicle where the flexplate separated from the ring gear on a manual vehicle and gave me all sorts of issues but never had a flexplate failure on an automatic

I would leave the hinge as is, ad a thin ribbon of flat one sided rubber tape either to the inside of the door or the outside of the camper and let the pressure of the door create the seal when closed. I prefer this over adding anything on the outside to prevent water dripping over the area, as this creates a disruption of the air flow.
