I recall reading here and there that you can put moss into a blender with enough water to turn the moss into a puree that you can then paint on concrete surfaces. It doesn't kill the moss and it will grow onto the wall.

If you don't mind the look of moss over a concrete wall you may be happy with that simple solution.

Trentino is a beautiful city.

I found this article that you may use at your discretion.

If its a concrete wall then install some wire mesh on the wall hanging off about 3 or 4 inches. Cheapest option around here is called "cattle fencing". Comes in a roll, has about 4-6" spacing between the wires.

With this you can turn any ground covering plant into a vertical one.

I grow cantaloupe, these miniature watermelons, cucumbers, and runner beans on the cattle panels all over the property here.

The true ground plants like cantaloupe and watermelon youll have to train every 2-4 days during the growing season. I have noticed a significant incidence rate of powdery mildew since growing them vertically

Follow up question:

If I wanted to connect a second switch, should it connect directly to the router (purple wire) or should it connect to one of the green wires?

Both are fine, just make sure that you always pass everything though a modem first.

1)yes

2)I dont think there's any disadvantage if your router ports are providing more bandwith than you need across all devices.

What kinds? I need more specific info, like what would I buy if I went to home depot or a hardware store>

>>1169951
It's not like there's a recipe or anything. Just look at what you want to do, and get the tools that fit the job. Small hole = small drill bit, etc. Figure it out.

why not put the magnets on the rotor and put the coil as the stator?

>>1169792
more complex coil windings, i need something i can wind by hand. i don't have a coil winder.

If you're not overly concerned about efficiency/output power/speed i don't think you need to bother with laminated steel.

>>1169761
is that thing like $10k? no docs wtf?

>>1169761
Why don't you contact them?

>>1169858

Because there are holidays tomorrow and the day after.

The earliest i can contact them is on Wednesday.

It's easier to fake those signals than get a clean one.

You'd be working with microvolt to millivolt levels along with s shitton of noise. 99% of the work will be filtering.

Of the ones you listed, a basic 2 electrode ECG is fairly straightforward and will give good results.

EMGs require relatively expensive sensors and aren't terribly informative in terms of what's going on. Also lots and lots of noise.

Don't even bother with EEG.

>>1169691
I need a way to get real signals, do you have an idea about what other information I can gather ?

>>1169693
Light based pulse & oximetry information is very simple.

There isn't much you can do on an art project budget while being non-invasive.

You're going to need to learn to make the shapes you need, make molds, and pour some self skinning foam

Headgear doesn't protect your brain at all, and it blocks your peripheral vision so you end up getting hit more often. Useless at best, snake oil at worst. Just keep your hands up.

That did not answer the question.

Sure thing.

I made a Daguerriatype camera for my highschool science project. Spent almost $400 doing it.

then don't start.

You really need to use a tool for doing that. I've worked at massive greenhouses before. There wasn't a single job I did where I had to touch the plants directly to perform the task. I always used a tools of some kind. If I didn't I've had nothing but bloody and green hands. Even something as simple as a boxend wrench can be a live saver for thumbs.

What is the plant and what part of the stem are you snapping off?

As for your question, looking into vacuum forming plastic. A really small mold, a vacuum cleaner, and a heat gun are all you need to form plastic in the size you need. You can make your shell then line the inside with a thin layer of 100% silicone for gripping.

>>1168970
thanks, I probably wouldn't have thought of that

>>1168977
they're various flowers (many geraniums), a lot of the job is cleaning and getting them ready for shipping, ie. taking off whole flowers/buds

afaik, if you use a knife or scissors you would have to sterilize them after each plant to prevent possible contamination/spreading disease, which would be not practical

>vacuum forming
I'd really like to have a setup for that at some point

any speficic type of plastic? hdpe?

Is this only drywall or some kind of autoclaved aerated concrete?

Seems like just drywall.

Find a wall stud, relocate it there. Cover hold with picture of a dog... Why a dog? Because reasons!
Why half ass it when you can quarter ass it...

it wasn't bad or noticeable in winter time but now that it's humid again it's becoming serious problem. I can feel whatever it is that was affecting me start to fade right when I leave bedroom. I have to be inhaling something through my nose that I'm not supposed to.

Sounds like it might be mold. I'm no expert though.

Sounds like mold. Mold can lead to serious health issues. Wear a mask when you go hunting for it.

You can test the battery at all national auto parts, for FREE

Had the same issue with my Jeep, check your battery terminals. One of mine was bad and this was the source of the issue.

>>1167949
As someone who wasted the better part of a weekend assuring myself that no, the battery is only a year old, it can't be the battery.... it's probably the battery.

Test/replace the simplest, cheapest things first, even if you're SURE they are fine. Because you're not sure.

1. Clean terminals
2. Replace negative battery cable
3. Replace battery
4. Cry
5. Alternator
6. Sell car to a woman and hope she doesn't have a boyfriend that knows cars

One of my arcade sticks I'm about to gut is in a wooden box. The sides are 45 degree miter cuts with wooden strips on the inside recessed to the depth of the bottom cover. The bottom cover screws into those strips. The top, which the buttons and stick are screwed into, has four small right angle metal brackets in the inside holding the top to the sides.

Something like this? Not sure if the top would be sturdy enough, but you could reinforce it fairly easily.

You can use a Sega master system or Genesis/mega drive controller in the meantime if you have one lying around.

i am good sir, also that purse box is a good contender, but i would like to have something wide enough to sit both hands over, something rectangular. also knowing how deep the box is helps a lot too.

theoretically speaking, all water on earth is recycled

>>1167672
Yeah, but how to do it myself?

You could filter the shit out of it, of course. The energy costs would kill you.
