I think it looks dope too, but aside from the stickers its an entirely unpainted model, and it just looks too bizarrely clean. Shadowing areas like these would really bring out the detail, i just dont know where to start

>>1230398
Try /tg, they have a couple model painting generals.

check PR306 PQ307B
where do P2 and P3 pins lead too.

>>1230390
also how did you test to determine that that net was shorted to ground?

>>1230392
I used diode check in multimeter on pin 4 in PQ302 and GND test pad.

Root it and flash pure Android onto it.

I've got like 6 of them around the house. No one likes using them because of the limitations of Amazon's OS. Best thing I ever did was root + play store plus smart launcher.100x better than the confusing and limited Kindle BS.

>>1230449
Yeah probably going to do this any guides for a noob?

>>1230340
If it's a two sided board and you can remove all the components you can do it visually and with a continuity tester (multimeter ohms).

If you can't remove the components you have to understand what they do to probe the board.

>>1230340
bigclive takes good pictures of the sides and puts them side by side (flipping one over?) and draws from there. have datasheets ready as necessary.

you can easily edit and create a panorama image with irfanview

>>1230340 My way:
paintshop, paint.net, gimp, other good image editor.
pic of each side, flip one pic and change its colors with wand selects and bucket
clean up both pics so you are left with nothing but traces, pads and components (or replace components with numbers in circles,etc)
Then, use both pics as layers in one image, line them up and scale them.
You should now have Xray view. Get pen and paper and start drawing out numbered components and labeled stub traces individually for each component, then combine all those individual components with labeled traces into one pic. You should then be able to put the schematic into a program and clean it up

Plastic polishing is as easy as getting a plastic polish. Try any auto place. They sell it, in a pinch get a headlight restoration kit and everything you need is there...

And that, thank you very much in advance
>>1230313
Thanks, but gotta ask more questions
What kind of polish, is it toxic, is it expensive?

>>1230117
Sounds like one of your ball bearings exploded. Can you turn the motor by hand? The gears? Does anything feel 'rumbly'?

>>1230119
This was actual pea gravel that either sucked in during cutting or otherwise.

It reciprocates when I turn the armature and that turns with little difficulty.

I have a solid hunch that I wired this incorrectly on the way back.

>Please is 3 people you have never engaged with in any way but somehow can vouch for you
I fucking hate giving references.
They probably want coworkers, I don't know why they don't just fucking say that.

>not relatives
>or former supervisors

I think it makes more sense parsed that way, but I agree, the wording is fucked. Call and make sure.

i've noticed this happening as well, but not concerning roofs

>Is my phone listening to me all the time and picking up buzzwords and trying to sell me things based on that?

Yes, this has been known for a few years now. Targeted ads from listening on your microphone.
All those terms of services you blow through without reading? All those permissions you look at and ignore when you install an app?

Talk about Taco Bell a lot, 20 minutes later youll see ads for it.

Technology luddites sound crazy until you understand the scope of your data and how its being used.
Remember all the people saying how windows 10 telemetry is ok?

Yes it is. Do you have Facebook installed?

You don't start with just a queen. She would starve. Queen bees are never alone.

Get a space set up in your back yard and get acquainted with some local beekeepers, because you will need their expertise and advice. Shit happens with beehives that's hard to describe and diagnose over a Chinese Cartoon forum.

In the spring, after the swarms come, there should be nuc boxes around for sale. These typically run around $100. This is the start of the hive. You're also going to need a suit, a smoker, frames, housing, probably a fence, etc.

>>1230066
see
>>>/out/1084132
Also >>>/an/ has bee keepers as well. Your best local resource for second hand equipment, queens, bees, and advice will be the, "Beekeeper's Association" they are pretty much world wide, but may be unto themselves in whatever other country besides the US.

Any of you guys keep solitary bees? I tried leafcutters this year but I think they all flew away ;-;

Strip the tiles. Let the wall dry and apply this green water resistant paint, or pull the wall out and redo everything. Also apply vinegar if you want to keep that wall, just in case.

Thanks for the recommendation with the water resistant paint, as I think I'd rather "band-aid" it then go through with replacing dry-wall and probably flooring. I'm going to pick up a basic tub and abandon the tile idea with something like Pic related.

Something low maintenance with less chance to add to the damage.

>>1230057
>as I think I'd rather "band-aid" it
Then why bother doing any repairs at all? Seriously, wet rot, dry rot, mold, decay and other problems exist with this bathroom. IF you simply put a fiberglass/vinyl surround over everything you've done nothing other than turn a blind eye to the damages.

Don't do what >>1229976 said, paint isn't good for tile adhesion. You should strip it down to the studs and just redo the tile mud and drywall. Drywall is cheap. Look in your town for a salvation army "restore" you can get cheap building materials others have donated from their projects.

maybe you should check the fucking catalog before posting

Dude just go to harbor freight or lowes , home depot and get some welders goggle, they're like five bucks.

>>1229948

Ex-CWI, a shade 14 is pretty rare, usually Mechanized GMA Spray or Air Arcing, so are usually special order. Also, if you do find one, like in an old tool box, you gotta make sure its not scratched.

You can't take a no. 10 and a no. 4 combined its not the same.

The ones sold at most places are like No. 10 or 11 so watch out for the ones you buy at reputable places. Harbor Freight I would avoid at all costs.

The condenser in question

>>1229723
how did you know that its busted?

>>1229724
is this paint?

>>1229729
Yup it's paint.

I know it's busted because when i turn the lathe on, i hear humming so there is power running through the motor.

I then cut out the condenser and tried again, and the lathe is acting the same.
