    This isn't the only way to do it.
    It's probably not the best way to do it.
    But it's how I did it.

    0:53 don't call it English - I'll get offended! We're thoroughly sensible over here with our metric hardware. Just need to adopt Robertson drive and we'd be sorted.

    The high price of metric hardware in Canada is just nuts.

    "Imperial" or "SAE" - terms I always forget - except this morning.

    @pileofstuff When you said your phone had a computer mode I figured it was a Samsung. My Note 9 and my new S23 Ultra have it but I've never played with it.

    • @DavZell

      It's called DEX.

    Being a Samsung phone you will have DEX which gives you the desktop experience. I use my S22 Ultra in Dex mode alot and love it.

    • @WanderingCactus
      @WanderingCactus 7 месяцев назад

      DEX is cool, but my workflow on my computer just doesn't translate, otherwise I'd prolly use only it, especially as I got a need hub stand for it.
      Now with that said, check your control panel, it should have DEX settings, there are options such as phone being a second monitor (you can move your mouse over to it) or a track pad, and of course the usual audio options are there, blue tooth or if'n your hub has a port like mine, wired speakers.

    4:56 did you consider a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse when using the monitor?

      Ill have to see if i can find a really cheap one

    7:15 The M4 referes to the thred size of the nut, 4mm. The fact that the nut fits the 7mm wrench is more a coincidence than a standard I guess.😊

    • @eDoc2020
      @eDoc2020 7 месяцев назад +1

      It's more than coincidence, there's an actual standard for nut sizes. Virtually all M4 nuts will need 7mm drivers.

    • @geirendre
      @geirendre 7 месяцев назад

      Ok, so what's the name or number or whatever for that standard? DIN.... JIS... ISO... or..?.@@eDoc2020

    • @eDoc2020
      @eDoc2020 7 месяцев назад +1

      @@geirendre It appears DIN 934 and ISO 4032 are the main standards for metric nuts.

  • @nutball7537
    @nutball7537 7 месяцев назад +1

    I'm always amazed at how useful a "smudge-point-zero" hex wrench can be! 🤣

    The American weights and measures (Not Imperial) can be called ANSI or American Customary Measures. They are based on exact relations to SI units. Like 1 inch is 25.4mm exactly.

    Could you not use a Bluetooth mouse and keyboard? No hub req'd.
