Happy little hack for the lovely weather we're having. I bought 2 of these cheap £5 paint roller poles and cut the roller off to make poles for a tarpaulin cover while working on the car!

Letting the boy get his hands dirty! It's amazing what you can get them to do if you give them a tool that goes "Buzzzzz!" 🤣

Little bit proud of myself today! Earned some serious man-points by fixing BBJ (Big Baby Jeep) myself. Whenever the engine warmed up she would lose power and fart black smoke. Turns out there was a tiny crack in one of the fuel injector pipes that only opened when it got warm. Replaced them all for the princely sum of £20 and she's back to climbing mountains and purring like a kitten 😊

Every week I seem to say this year couldn't get any worse and every week the universe seems to say "hold my beer". This week we lost Sharon and the world seems a little darker already. The first time I met Sharon in person she greeted me with a smile and a hug and ,as she had online until then, made me feel welcome in this community as was her gift. We shared not only a love of making but also of practical effects movies, goblins, elves, ludo and fizgig! I had the pleasure of making some things for her last year that I'll never forget just like I'll never forget the smile on her face whenever creativity was near.

Free advice!! Service your oil fired heating in the summer when you don't need it 🙄 just replaced the fuel pump and now realize I have no way of priming it as the tank is 30 feet away with a 4 foot drop... Not even my thunder lungs can suck that much kerosene!!!

Building some app controlled led lights for some of @weefrog_woodcraft pieces. Based on the WLED firmware for some Wemos D1 Mini boards. It has an ios and android app and is even Alexa controlled. Suffice to say my office is now covered in LEDs.

The build continues... Trying to redesign the x-axis to take a screw drive and then onto squaring up and wiring.

So this happened!... Big thanks to Justin @garageavenger for letting me waffle on about my journey as a maker. If you don't know the podcast already then shame on you! Go give Justin a like and you can find it in all the podcasty places or on his YouTube channel.

I made a super low part count filament storage solution!! Just 2 pieces of wire and a pole... I wish I hadn't wasted all day designing a wooden shelf system before settling on this 🤣🤣

And so it begins... Again... I've taken my two £80 dirt cheap Prusa clones as far as they can go and to be honest I'm impressed at just how well they can perform now. But the two big problems they still have is a flimsy plywood frame and belt driven X/Y axis so they're getting a 2020 aluminum frame and leadscrews... Should be fun 😬😬😬

Found some tiny 240v AC - 5v DC transformers and decided to Alexa up the office lights with a wemos D1 mini 😁

Recently me and Dave (@missusbishop) were asked to do some live streaming at very short notice and in an effort to not have wires all over the place I grabbed an SJ4000 sports cam and connected it as a webcam via USB to a Raspberry Pi. It streamed an RTSP feed to my laptop and into OBS Studio. Worked perfectly!! So I decided to take the idea as far as I could and so I give you... The DaveLink(TM)!! It's a PiZeroW and a HDMI capture dongle that takes any input and spits it across wifi and into OBS. Main problems at the moment are the latency is about a second although that can be fixed by using GStreamer in stead of v4lrtspserver and the quality, while technically 1080p, isn't great but that's what you get when you spend £20 on a HDMI capture card.

Lesson learned... Don't leave freshly painted shelves in the workshop next to an open window when you have cats 🙄
