Once tried to paint my front door and fucked it up so badly that a professional had to sand it down. Cost me more than a workman would have done in the first place.

      The concrete below had some holes that I was able to use for attaching the threshold. Those holes didn’t line up perfectly with the existing holes of the prefabricated threshold, so one of them had to adapt. Drilling aluminum was a lot easier than drilling concrete, so I just went with the easier route. Just realized, that I could fill those vacant holes with fake screws to make it look nice.

          yeah no, thats right. then someone suggested they get a drill bit for the dremel and drill holes that way. I was just pointing out they could use a drill with a drill bit… forget it

            I wasn’t suggesting that they get a drill bit for their Dremel, just pointing out that it’s possible to add the missing holes they need since from their message or seems like it’s on concrete and some people don’t know that it’s not too complicated to drill holes in it.
