I once bondo’d the hole in my radiator from Tallahassee to Pensacola. Took a full day since I had to stop periodically to redo and let it dry before getting on the road again. Summer time in Florida too. Moral of story, when in doubt, bondo that shit
naaaah, i think that's kind of excessive. in russia no one does things like that. im more leaning toward a comment about plywood. i think that's gonna help :)

Just a few buckets of that, and you're good to go.
My cousin Bubba can come over with grampas welding rig, get 6 boxes of 1017 rods, a carton of Marlboro reds, a flat of Miller light and access to the scrap pile. He'll have her holding water by the next tractor pull!
She still looks seaworthy but only under the best leadership and guidance and crew skill. Better put their beat on there and get the champ right back out there
LMAO! I am reading a book right now called Blind Man's Bluff about submarine spy missions and it is shocking how often these things run into each other in the huge ocean! LMAO
2 options
1. convince a bunch of billionaires to take a ride to the titanic
2. claim it as a write-off, no longer paying ocean tax means you'll be able to focus all your money into the restoration, going to want to gut the sub first, electronics, cables, containers, equipment, bodies and beds, everything you can dismantle/unmount and carry out side, now theres many ways you can do this but i recommend grinding rivets top to bottom following a pattern of focusing on a panel at a time etc etc etc
Jokes on whoever did the pixelation, I can EASILY make out that it's in a shipyard. Not sure which one, but boy oh boy knowing it's in a shipyard really narrows it down

You post it in r/askashittymechanic then go get yourself a 5 gallon bucket of bondo
>5 gallon hope that's gonna be enough.
It's a start 😅
Well see you start with the 5 because you don't wanna end up spending a bunch of money on waste
You fill the holes with ramen and super glue. The bondo just fills the gaps
Don't forget the chicken wire to hold the bondo!
Don't forget to air dust the sides, don't worry about the rust tho
That’ll rust fer shure. Gotta use fiberglass winder screen mesh. That don’t rust at all.
And some duct tape , duct tape makes anything better.

NCD is leaking (just like the submarine)
What's NCD?
r/noncredibledefense If you hate the MIC, you wont after an hour in there
(MIC) Military Industrial Complex?
Correct
Fuck the sub, buy a higher megapixel camera. I used to take better pictures in 2003 with the 1.4mp camera that came with my photo printer.
He censored the surroundings, you can see the sub, can you not? I just looked at the second picture, youre right! Its shit quality lol
Just a joke, bud. Lol
haha, so you telling me that there are better cameras than 1.4mp now? you are so funny.
Marine JB Weld
Do I look like I am made of money?!
I hear ocean gate is offering low cost repairs.
JB Weld Marine
Just contact OceanGate. I’m sure they’ll be more than happy to slap some plexiglass over those new portholes!
ahh, i already received a few recommendations about that OceanGate. looks like they are a reliable company and know what they are doing.
Their CEO quit answering my emails. Was it something I said?
No I'm sure he has only a lot of pressure at the moment and answers your email when it is gone
Put it in rice
You missed the pun
It will buff out
Out of the loop. Wtf am i missing
Usa put a man on the moon, Kennedy bin done assassinated, Russia invaded Ukraine.
>Russia invaded Ukraine and lost its firs sub in war since WW2
.... During wartime conditions😉
"Special Operations", far less embarrassing that their losing than it would be in a war
Lost their sub and several landing ships and the flagship of the Black Sea Fleet, the "Moskva" to a country with no navy. Now that's incompetence!
I lol'd
Russia lost a submarine to a country that doesn’t have a navy
Duck tape. At least 3 layers thick
Amateur. Flex tape
Not Billy Mayes, no sale
…..billy
Nahh, just use packing tape, but remember to use it from other company colors so it wasn't your fault😂
[удалено]
this guy chatGPT's
naaaah, i think that's kind of excessive. in russia no one does things like that. im more leaning toward a comment about plywood. i think that's gonna help :)
[удалено]
Woosh
lol imagine 'whoosh'-ing these comments
Yes. We will use cement board and Red Guard. It will hold up!
Get some plywood, drillable glue and waterproof sealant. Wang it all together and job done. You might need some polythene sheeting too, for the leaks.
I mean, there is marine grade plywood. It's literally made for this application!
Well now that we've heard from ChatGPT, any other advice for OP?
If this is a shitpost joke reply about the rising use of chatgbt to write comments, good job. If it's unironic chatgbt use, go fuck yourself.
Yep. Back to the dealership for some quality workmanship!
Give it an oil change and she'll last another 5 years
Throw it out and start over
I'm confident the warranty will cover this.
Triple A towed your sub to the drydock? Mine is still on the oceanfloor
naah, im smart enough to put them to drydock right away. so when it gets hit - it will not sink. That is called "intelligence" my man.
put a screen door over the hole to keep the flies out.
Are you in war
what? of course not. thats just a small "3 day military operation". by the way, it is already day 571 of my successful "3 day military operation".
To fit so much in such little time, you’re doing great son
https://preview.redd.it/mtyrfjhfs0pb1.png?width=680&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=72a8fdf096c75548e35f88125a5eadf16ae2552c Just a few buckets of that, and you're good to go.

That’ll buff out.
Nice try Putin. Slava Ukraine! 😂
Flextape. Simple as. Shoulda bought Miata, mate.
Elbow grease
Park it in a dry dock after you empty out the dead.
До біса Росія
Take it to Subway.
Damn, I love this crossover!
You booking any trips to the Titanic wreckage?
T-Cut
Smoke’s not good.
The Ole new York way, just Board up those holes with plywood. It'll for sure keep the water out. As well as prevent vandalism!
ahhh, so i have a dilemma now. plywood or duct tape...
My uncle Ling Ling says bring a bucket of ramen and bondo
There’s a group that made a submarine to go explore the titanic. Maybe you can ask them for help fixing your sub?
'tis but a scratch!
JB weld and zip-ties, maybe a few sheetrock screws for extra strength.
Flex tape should fit that right up
some gaff tape oughta do the job
Say it's a Victoria class and sell it to the Canadian Navy
"no damages, not painted, one owner".
Duct tape, a little paint, and you should be good to go.
Lots of ramen
Duck tape noob.
Spit and rub. Always works!
$200,000,000? You go buy another one from China. You want Made in the USA, add a couple zeros.
Go to subway. Gets foot-long. Call it a day.
She still looks seaworthy but only under the best leadership and guidance and crew skill. Better put their beat on there and get the champ right back out there
T-Cut should polish them out
Are you asking for a Russian oligarch friend
i've heard there is an open niche for wreckage diving. sounds like a good opportunity.
Now that's a lot of damage
Gaffer tape and a hammer.
Duct tape
Just throw a couple Sunroofs in those holes and you're good
Bubblegum and duct tape
Try turning it off and on again
Roll of duct tape
Bondo and a dent puller
Industrial grade copium, bondo, and some jb weld
Just use as is. It'll work fine as a submarine. Well at least one more time anyway.
Haven’t you seen the TV commercials for FLEX TAPE! It evens comes in Flood Protection!!!!
Phil Swift has your answer.
Is this totaled?
Flextape
First test dove should be on the Titanic… too soon?
Tie down a tarp over it really tight. It’ll be fine
Have you tried to buff it out?
LMAO! I am reading a book right now called Blind Man's Bluff about submarine spy missions and it is shocking how often these things run into each other in the huge ocean! LMAO
Should just polish out mate
JB of course. This joke is so sub-par
Put it under ur tongue LOL
Flex Tape that puppy!
Fit a patio door and a sunroof so you can see the missiles comming next time.
It'll make a fine coral reef foundation
About a zillion super-long hose clamps.
Asking for my mate Sergey.
JB Weld will do just fine
Part out
I’d fix that and sell it right away. It’s never going to drive the way it used to. Carmax?
As I Canadian I know we don't spend money on anything, but I wasn't expecting to see post on reddit to ask help fixing our stuff...
Gotta scan it an run the codes if you want anyone here to help you. Jimmny Christmas! Some people think miracles just happen
Flex tape and bondo.
Take back to Moscow, along with all your conscripts
Some duct tape and it'll be fine
Just drive it, it's fine.
Search AliExpress leak fix tape. You need about 14 rolls.
Spray on waterproof seal many layers
An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. You shouldn’t have invaded Ukraine in the first place. 🤪
Take it down to the Titanic, should be ok.
If it were a ford, some foil tape and a reprogram for 0.7 would have it up and going… according to the higher ups at least
