Shops for a frame repair?

Looking for shops that could repair my frame. Honestly leaning towards getting a new bike, but I’d like a quote for the repair before I decide.

What type of weld can I use on Manganese Alloy?

I want to weld this break but I'm not sure if the odd metal its made of would pose a problem. Made of a manganese steel alloy, I think a few other metals are in there.

Any advice?

Peugeot Frame Repair

I commute daily on this 80’s Peugeot Aubisque and the frame broke at the back wheel last week. Didn’t even realize when it happened, i thought my wheel was loose/wobbling.

My question is: Can i get a guy at work to do a quick weld on it or do i need a bike professional?

I don’t care too much about aesthetics. The bike is pretty scratched up already. My only concern is that it’s made of a Manganese alloy. I quick google says it could become brittle if heated.

Any advice?

Installing roof vent for bathroom exhaust.

I’m renovating my bathroom and I’m thinking about adding an exhaust fan. I can’t seem to find many resources on installing a vent for a flat/non shingled roof.

From what i’ve seen it looks like i can just cut a hole and stick a pvc pipe through. Then use a liquid patch with fabric to seal it.

Do I need to secure the pipe somehow? Do i need to put a hood/cap on it? Should i even bother installing the vent? The bathroom is pretty small and has a window.

I appreciate any thoughts or useful links, thanks.

Street Fighter Mod for Wolfenstein 3D

Found in an old filing cabinet at work. Can’t find the same label/art anywhere online. Pretty cool
