you've pretty much described every security camera in existence.

if you wanna go cheap, get an IP baby camera. i have one, an iBaby, which has movement detector in software, and also external connections to wire switches or a movement detector.
but it just transmits data to a PC, it doesnt have storage.

if you want storage as well, then a dual or quad kit from Costco will do the job. make sure it has external alarm inputs, and can be remotely viewed thru wifi or ethernet. these are all standard features nowadays.

Been pretty happy with my Hikvision IP cams.
PoE, so power goes in with data... no extra cables to deal with. WiFi cams kinda suck.

Motion detection can be tricky/finicky to set up. My garage camera gets triggered when dust floats in front of the camera - the IR LEDs surrounding it light up the speck, and it appears as a giant orb floating through my garage. My porch camera triggers when bugs crawl on it, or when wind kicks up snow in front of the door.

When it does detect motion, it pre-triggers 5 seconds of video, then records 10 seconds after the last trigger. Also sends me an image of what triggered it.
Can save the video locally to a microsd card, or push it to a number of network sources (local shared drives, NAS, cloud shares, etc).

At 4 megapixel/25fps, it's pretty fucking good quality. More than the old grainy black-and-white shit.

Put da red pain on it yah git!

strap a model rocket motor onto it

>>1171725
ls7 swap. twin turbos and boost the hell out of it.

Can be done for $27,000.

Gut it - Take the plastic body off. Remove the electric motor, lights, A/C system. Take the spare fake tire out of the back. Remove the fake plastic windows. Swap the driveshaft out for a carbon fiber driveshaft.

You could get that little guy moving to upwards of 250mph for as little as 50 grand.

Good luck

O-offer enough money?

What exactly are you asking here.

You make them an offer they can't refuse

>>1171690

It isn't on the market. I approached them about buying it and offered a fair price.
They have other houses and aren't always there so thought they would sell it. But they weren't open to it so how do I make them

Make models. Nerd. It's a great way to soak up spare time. Also just get more job.

>>1171294
Gardening, even just a garden out on your tiny patio if your an apartment fag.
Get those tomatoes started, herbs, anything edible.

Huge pain in the ass to do so. You need the driver boards, et cetera.
Do some basic research (yourself; get it?) before you post.

>>1171259
There are shit ton of guides online and its been brought up plenty of times on here before. Hint, you are going to have to buy it from ebay.

>>1171262
Its not that hard. You are just too stupid.

>>1170943
PVA glue

>>1170943
That's kitsch as fuck. Why would you want to?

Wood frame it and pour epoxy on it.

>>1170291
The bigger the better. You need to have enough niche people to support a niche product. If your city has 70000 inhabitants then its just impossible to support a specialised store...

>>1170293
According to the last census there were just under 60k people living in the city, many more scattered around the villages and towns nearby.

Big agriculture place, so I obviously wasn't expecting miracles here. Figured it was big enough that hobby lobby wasn't the only art supply store in town, frankly calling them an art supply seems like an insult to real supply stores.

>>1170291
The internet i would bet. Just bought 2x4 online for $1 more each than getting myself. Fuckit

Boy, this sure does look confusing now.

I don't use them for your purpose, but I like industrial style 120v switches. The tactile response is predictable, and they're tough as hell.

>>1167148
i dont have a select kit, but i got 4 buttons, a classic style arcade joystick (really nice too, theres a cheaper one but its not the style i liked) for about 30 plus $5 in shipping costs over at adafruit. alternatively theres specialized websited for that kind of stuff. funny story actually, im building a custom arcade kit for my dad and just started on the frame yesterday (i have most of the parts)

>>1166711
No body knows about this shit here? What a waste of thread

Make a pulse jet and be done with it.

Or this guy may have some information on more of a real jet engine and building one if i remember.

Calm your tits faggot...this is a slow board, and most of us work...check back tomorrow...

yes, you should use rebar And metal mesh. Don't forget to make good deep footers as needed in your climate.

Plan out the size of the pad and add it up. That concrete starts adding up quickly. You might want to look into getting a delivery of mixed and ready concrete from a nearby plant. Consider rounding up to the next full yard if that saves money, have a secondary plan, walkway, something else to spend the partial on.

Make sure you have the rest of your planning done. This is when you can place some anchors easily, ready to tie in the greater structure as it comes up.

Otherwise, spend the time to make a good finish, cure things well, etc. You should be able to rent some large 'floats', possibly from the same place you get concrete. Don't be too proud. If this project is very large and you have any doubt about your ability, get some help. Getting two guys to help with the actual pour (the fast part) after you have spent all the time you like preparing the form and reinforcement means no ruining things at the last minute.

How big is the shed?
You don't have to pour a slab if you build a frame with plywood flooring on top of concrete blocks. For an 8X10 you want a block every 2 feet depending on if you use 2X6's or not. Dig 6-10 inches down and fill with stone dust, compact it down tight then level the block and you'll be set for 30 years. You can use sonotubes if you want but you'll have to dig at least 18 inches down and deal with concrete. I personally just made a frame and coated it in tar on the bottom, then cut it to the edge of the shed, sealed that and dropped it on a bunch of gravel and stone dust in a dug out hole.

*Was gonna add that the concrete slab will probably cost more unless you have a mixer on hand and can order a pallet of mix.

pic related is a similar fort during it's heyday

>>1151871
well to begin with op i thought it was going to be dirty hippies and it was so i didn't care then i read he had died and now i'm sad and kind of having an existential crisis before sleepy time so thanks for that i guess. but fucking hell how many passports did they issue? laughed at piratebay trying to buy it. who would connect to them? nobody would dare.

>>1171879
That's old telephone wire

>>1171885
Probably should explain. They probably removed the box from the back of the house, and instead of actually removing the wire they tied it up out of the way. Maybe they left it so you can get your own service hooked up. It's fine, but it might be a red flag that they don't have the most qualified people taking care of the property. Probably just the second option though.

>>1171887
>second option
Got dammit that's not clear. They probably left it so you can get your own service. That's probably the end of it. I just got off a 16 hoir shift and spent 2 hours doing yardwork, I'm retarded right now.

Won't work if your enclosure's metal. Otherwise, whatever, go for it.

>>1171835
Why not? Are the black parts conductive?

>>1171836
Oh, I thought you meant a hole for each pin. If you're drilling a hole for the button and somehow securing the body to the enclosure well enough that a button push won't dislodge it that'll work fine.

>>1171831
/vr loves these. Are you into retro games?

I have one with a built in VCR collecting dust in my basement, monitoring thread for interest

>>1171831
>How much could I get for selling it online?
Absolutley nothing

> Could I sell it for parts
No

> which parts are valuable?
None of them, in fact its legally hazardous material and you have to pay to recycle it properly.

>>1171834
/vr/ loves a few very specific TVs, not the other 95% of them out in the wild.

Put it back out in the trash pile

Double check the settings on the mod, is it in temp control mode, is it locked, etc.

On the RDA, make sure the post screws are tight- but not too tight; if you tighten too far you'll snap the coils.

Check that the coils aren't touching anything but the posts.

Double check that the mod is actually making a connection to the tank. Some mods have floating pins, springloaded pins, etc; and may need to be finessed a little to connect to the tank.

If you're sure they're connecting, Clean the connections on the mod and on the RDA with a little alcohol and a cotton swab.. Try again.


If that doesn't work, it could be a problem with the insulator.. Some cheaper tanks and RDAs have used shitty plastics that can melt when exposed to sub-ohm temps too long.

>>1171472
Haven't put it on any mods - just the 521 mini tab. Apparently I was being a huge pussy and not holding the fire button long enough on the 521 - I was being too careful/paranoid. Thanks for the reply, though this thread done.

Have you tried vaping a bit of bleach to treat them?
