What drill bit size is needed for this wall plug
Discussion
This is it. I can now sleep.
This needs to be upvoted to the moon 🌕
He looks way too happy.
Because the cameram told him « everything’s a dildo when you are brave enough »
Good one bro LMMFAO
What is the extra M for?
Artur Fischers plastic wall plugs were and still a true revolution. Being one of the best inventors of all time with over 1100 patents (even overtook Thomas Edison) and 5867 trade rights, I sure would be happy too.
Good reason for that smile! Smarter than I.
I just learned about him today. Funny how I’ve probably used hundreds of wall plugs without even knowing who invented it.
I bet that’s the kind of smile you have when you create something that ends up being used by so many people.
Those plastic wall plugs kind of suck ass.
There sure are situations where other wall anchors or plugs are better, but all my experience with the OG fisher wall plugs were superb (when used correctly). In walls, ceilings with brick, concrete or in my drywall ceiling holding my heavy ceiling fan directly above me.
I don't think drywall is rated to support a ceiling fan.
"What the hell is a fan box?" "It's a box...with extra support running to the joists...for a fan." "Fuck that I got wall plugs."
Did you say "hold my beer" when you installed it ?
Yes. For some reason my ceiling fan is a wall fan now.
Lmfao
Lmao
I hope nobody is ever underneath that ceiling fan.
Hahaha found the American. Talk about stuff you know something about, like mudding bullet holes or something.
Don’t know anything about that sorry. Plenty of people use those anchors here but that doesn’t mean they don’t suck and there aren’t better things like toggle bolts for instance
Flew right over your head. The conclusion of you being American is that you are just a different kind of construction to everyone else. I'm not debating the better or worse part about that. You just don't need these kind of anchors. Everytime there is some hint of those anchors Americans are hating on them, almost all over the world these are standard anchors for brick and concrete houses all over the world. Just because you don't grasp the use case doesn't mean the whole world seems to be wrong.
Joseph Gayetty and Seth Wheeler were probably the best inventors, no shit.
hey, happy wife happy life, right?
He's happy because these come with everything and work on nothing. Worst design ever.
Government contracts
Suppose that we will find the right drill bit.. will such a plug work? Or that geometry fails ove a certain threshold?
If it was real, I expect it would depend mainly on what it's made from, and the geometry of the screw. Though it's also worth considering at that scale the forces involved might just crack open whatever it was used in.
I believe it would still function, however everything else would have to be scaled up as well. your standard sheet of drywall is not going to be nearly thick enough to support that.
Looks like something Tim Taylor would come up with from “Home Improvement.”
“We use these to affix Al’s mom’s chin-up bar to the wall.”
That looks like the "Pile Driver 2000" last time I checked it was on backorder.
5/16" and a big ass hammer.
This is my default setting.
The bit isn't the problem, it's getting the Caterpillar 320L excavator into the room without messing up the floor...
I should call her.
4 inch drill bit, but youre gonna need a bigger hammer to sink it.
“I got these will this work for my 85 inch TV?”
The wall anchor she told you not to worry about.
My wife has one of those in the nightstand. Im relieved to find out that it's just a wall anchor. Why does hers take batteries, though?
I bet it's the same size too
I know where that’s going! (Hint: it’s OP’s mom)
A core gun lmao
150мм
8mm
That guy is Tom Thumb
10mm, and then a REALLY BIG hammer
That guy looks a bit like Robin Williams.
Fischer is actually the brand I prefer when it comes to these plugs. I've used so many, found that brand worked the best and worth the price if you care about quality and then found out he's the inventor.
The one my ex wife uses
Those wall plugs suck they got way better ones on amazon
For drywall, I'd say about about fist sized
The fister
It's a berman brand, so yes
Just call Kyle!
Oh cool! My wife has one of those hole punchers. Weirdly, she keeps it in the bedroom and not the garage...
