pls no bully

You must wire like this. Draw program suck. Plus top right minus botom left. Daisy chain. Git gud

If your time is worthless, sure.

It might be interesting as a side project, like Primitive Technology, but not cost effective.

Don't buy at the home improvement store individual brick prices. Figure out how many you need, plus some padding, and find a brick&masonry supplier in your area.

just get them for free off craigslist

Literally linked on that page.

Check out bibanon on github. They have an archiver but it only archives threads you specify, and it runs on python. So instead of scraping entire boards you can save threads you like, or just automate it to scrape the boards.

Thanks guys. I dunno how I missed that, and if I could automate it to only backup the kinds of threads I actually read that would be even better. I'll check those out.

Any others?

Can post photos of the knife if necessary

>>1160344
Always post photos of your work.
Do you know what tools to use? Please ask specific questions for better help.

Digital amplifiers which can take 24V are easy enough to find.

The drivers will probably blow if they are designed for 12V though, so just put two in series and make a double driver subwoofer.

>>1160273
Had no idea 24 volt was common at all. Thanks. Any recommended brands? Honestly confused as ro why big names like kicker and jl and fosgate dont make deals with CAT and kumatsu and shit... a lot of people soend a lot of time in machines and im done with this little blown out panasonic shit.

Well fuck me... http://www.jlaudio.com/m400-4-24v-marine-audio-24-volt-m-series-amplifiers-98624

4 channels seems more than i need and jl is high af tho. Will keeo looking and if anyone has experience with cucmstom setups or 24 volt amps hit me up

it depends on the insulation water vapor transmission.

Totally air tight insulation can cause condensation to occur on the brick layer and eventually cause deterioration.

Further more it depends on the bricks themselves and the mortar used.

>>1160130
FWIW, what happened in the pic is due to using the wrong mortar.

>>1160838
Could you explain how that happened? I'm curious. I also don't quite understand what's happening in that photo.

Just buy broken robotic toys and dismantle.

>>1160039
just browse aliexpress and buy whatever looks interesting

consult >>>/g/csg for specific questions

This is good advice. Its a good way to learn about mechanisms and assembly. Parting out stuff and organizing parts gets the juices flowing. Looking at parts is a good source of inspiration.

bump for stone masons.
I want to get into this too.

>>1160007
Ditto. MOAR

>>1159959
I do all EIFS and artificial stone, never done brick though I know how

>>1159866
I would be interested in any kind anon suggestions about a field Incoukd easily get into that would involve learning and becoming skilled at handy things that could be applied at home.

Bonus points if t also pays well.

here it is before I removed the gas fixture, the pan section is used in the next pic

and here is how I think I'd use it if there's no concerns. The pan is about an inch away from the bottom, I flipped it over and wedged it down there to create airspace under the coals and to cover those two large openings on the bottom of the grill. The coals would be ~4-5 inches from the grill in this set up. I would put the whole grill on top of a large sheet pan to avoid the embers dropping onto the wooden deck.

the only thing I can figure might go wrong is that the coals get too hot and somehow melt through the bottom, or the grill just doesn't work that well. any thoughts?

Would probably burn shitty unless you put a real grate down there. Not enough airflow.

>Anyone know of a tool that will grip this so it can be removed?
Vice grips.
Used by someone who has enough hand strength to clamp them on without slipping

>>1159410
Before you do that you should make sure it's not standard instead of metric.

>>1159410
yeah vise grips will work, are you adjusting the knob on the end so it bites firmly into the head?

...if that doesn't work hammer a imperial box end wrench between the metric sizes onto the head and turn

>>1159357
You can use hand planes.. But it just takes a long ass time. Especially if you have a shit wood that likes to blow out or has lots of knots.

I need to get a thickness planer myself too. Sucks not having one.

you're fucked

>>1159359
Hand planes? Is there a way I can ensure it will be square?

The catch is that it flexes everywhere.

Some improved designs that descend from it are the X-CARVE and the OX.

>>1159457
First time I heard about OX. They say it's strong but I can't find too many videos of tests etc.

You can probably build a better one yourself for that kind of money, or the same thing for half the price, maybe even less. It's a pretty half-assed design.

>>1158917
Do you mean silicone? That looks like silicone

>>1158918
like the construction store one?

>>1158921
quite probably it's silicone, yes.
it's quite harmless and easy to handle, but you need a mold to pour it into.

>>1158693
well maybe before you go smashing holes in walls have a look at where the pipes go to/from the sink.
if they pass under the closet floor then you might not need to make a hole in the wall at all.

consider carefully the requirements for especially any drain hoses so it doesn't syphon dirty water and shit everywhere. check and electronic copy of the manual of the appliance online before you buy it if you haven't already.

but yeah i would be bashing the hole already before asking here lol.

if you are renting you will want to consider asking someone first though? do you know there is nothing in the wall you are going to hit? cables? gas pipe? don't trust those scanner detector things they are shit.

Our landlord said we weren't allowed to put a washing machine upstairs as the floor of the upstairs toilet aren't waterproof. So we have it in the basement. Which is cool as it started to leak and upstairs that would have been a serious problem.

Where/how are you going to vent the dryer?
