>I am assuming I need to cut the Dawn down with some kind of bulk or moisturizer or something of the sort.
why not try just watering it down first and seeing how it goes

>>1215580
And just have it run through my hands and down the drain whenver I try to use it?

why are you here op?
you know what the options are, what the room is like, how messy you are in the shower, where the water goes.
do you really trust the opinion of an anonymous stranger over your own?

you will inevitably get two kinds of reply telling you to go either way. which one will you take and which will you ignore?

the truth is you already know what is the right way to do it and you already know what solution you are going to adopt, you are simply here to ease your conscience.

this is simply procrastination.

>>1215491
IF and IF the shower was installed correctly, you don't need to seal any of those lines. There will be cement board and a moisture barrier behind it. The grout does the work of dispersing the water appropriately.

The only place to seal is the one you didn't mark: where the basin meets the floor of the bathroom. you don't want any seepage into that joint.

>>1215491
u can use a anti mold spray on the moldy looking sealant or remove all blue line sealant + the bit on floor as already mentioned and re-seal. The join between the old sealant (red lines) and the new (blue) will be fine. Just make sure that basin to floor line is also sealed.

Both are wrong ceilings.

>>1215455
A ceiling is the bottom of a floor system.

Only if you're doing it wrong.

Sharpie

>>1215428
isnt that a bit small? Im guessing it would take ages or is there a big alternative?

>>1215430
Bingo sharpie.

Well if it's going bad when your on it, it could be that the load (motor) is creating a lot of heat to start turning. Maybe put on some heat sinks or try a similar motor. If nether work, try a different circuit design for your h-bridge

>>1215411
I thought that too, but the MOSFET didn't feel hot at all after it blew up. I just heard a pop and it stopped working.
I'm actually just using a single MOSFET to control the motor, not a complete H-bridge. I need something simple to work before I make it more complex.

Note: I am using a flyback diode with the motor.

Are your mosfets on heatsink? Normally mosfets need heatsink to stay at their rated amp draw for any period of time. Also the data sheet indicates that package limits the mosfets max current to 78A, see foot note 4. The new ones should work.
As for the motor, it will draw near stall current briefly while starting up. You can use the performance chart and table to estimate running current at various loads. Ofc if your fat ass is too heavy and stalling the motor you might need to add some gearing or belting for more torque at the wheels.

Are they real wood or some kind of fiberboard with a veneer?

Replacement shelves for when you scratch the ones you have?

>>1215280

Chipboard (? Sorry if you don't know the word - english is not my mothertongue) covered up with veneer. But about 5cm thick and really sturdy. Desk is made out of the same boards from the same furniture series with 3cm and it carries my weight of 95kg.

>>1215281
All in all you are right, but boi - that ain't /diy/ haha

1: This is more of a /g/ thing
2: Can't see why it shouldn't be possible, most likely just a matter of settings
3: Install Gentoo on it

>Googled model number
>bunch polish and Lithuanian sites

Jesus christ.

In any case, since I can't be bothered to find spec sheets in English and on my phone, it will probably work that way, but those wall-plug repeaters have terrible reception from my experience. You'll need to connect the repeater to your wireless through whatever wizardry it requires, then connect the pc.

Also, this belongs in either QTDDTOT or /g/

>>1215155
>>1215153
Ok, thank you guys.

Get any tv made in the last 5 years. Hang it on the wall. Cast your music to it.

If you can figure out a way to make foobar push the art over your network then you could use a Rapsberry pi running a digital signage distro and a cheapo HDMI screen (check the Chinese vendors).

Alternatively, use a WiDi adaptor with the aforementioned cheapo screen, connect it to your computer as a second monitor and display the album art window fullscreen on said screen.

ssh into raspberry pi and just plug an hdmi into whatever you want to display it on and you can do whatever you want

>Nor mater what else I jiggle I dont have right channel.

look at all solder joints and look for cracks. use a soldering iron to remelt the solder.

if that doesn't work it may be the output amplifier.

your shit is all confused

>I would jiggle the connection, and it would work again.

which fucking connection? input or output?

>If I swap the leads around in the subwoofer,

what's thats supposed to accomplish? it's insane.

>If I slowly pull out on the 3.5mm jack I gain power in the right channel, but loose stereo.

this seems to be the most likely trouble spot. the 3.5mm jack is the most fragile part on this system. if you cant replace, then solder a new one in parallel and bring the wires out the back. maybe use a 1/4-inch jack for extra strength.

>I cant get to the back of the jack.

if you can get to some points on the PCB where the jack connects, then its all the same.

>>1215083
Thanks.

I think it was the 3.5mm jack. I hooked my phone up directly to the back of the speaker and it seems to work fine from both speakers now.

But when I plug in a new cable that works off my phone to my PC I loose right channel.

Time to check on that end.

Thanks for pointing me in the right directions

and you have permission to do this?

>1.10m = middle of major metropolitan area
>french
>gymnastic rings on balcony
May I suggest this solution

>>1215043
Do I really require permission for this ? I doubt I will cause any damage other than the drilling and it can easily be filled when I move.

>>1215044
Well, to be honest it is not in the middle of a metropolitan area, more of suburb in a smallish town. I made a mistake, it is 1.1m in width, more like 4m long.

>french
Can't argue with that.

>gymnastic rings on balcony
I don't really see the issue. But that may be because I'm french.

'microswitch'

it has one of the terminals cut off, so if you replace it it's ok to use one with 3 terminals as long as you know which ones to use

Would have been easier to just use an old laptop charger with a DC-DC stepdown (Assuming laptop output vdc > 12)

>>1214826
Not sure I follow. The main point of this is to be able to plug in my universal battery charger (Nitecore i2 which requires 12v input) into my solar panel or USB battery bank (both have 5v USB output). Sorry if I was unclear. Using a laptop charger stepped down to 12v would be the same as using the original 110v input (maybe without the RF problem).

why do you need a design? coasters are for under the drinks. I make mine out of 1x4 pressure treated wood and the ladies love them.

You can get 1x4 pressure treated wood just about anywhere. Use your Leatherman to saw it into squares, and walla, it's party time and the ladies will love you.

It's for a drinking club.

And they need to be made off cork, as they can sometimes be thrown at people for fun.

>as they can sometimes be thrown at people for fun.

Well, that does not sound like my idea of fun. Someone could lose an eye and then what do you say.

And this whole "drinking club" thing. That's a joke, right? When I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself.

You could make a chair. It would be both cheaper and less retarded.

Get an indoor AC unit and run it through your garage door window. There's already a thread probably still in the catalog.

yes, yes it is >>1213176

He's already figured out the psi for moving the duct back and forth but you might want to double check his numbers.

Turn your heat lamp off and don't let your place get above 80f. Keep the terrarium out of the sun and put it in a cooler part of the house. Any other solutions would probably need active cooling
