Think u need a capacitor for that bro

>>1129155
follow up question:

What is the title, or what kind of credentials would I seek in someone who I could ask about shit like this? About... materials.

Some guys on youtube seem to know all about this kinda stuff but... would I look for a person in the pastics industry? In like... product fabrication? I dont know if its necessarily a plastic even...

I have literally no clue

Why would you just not use a drone that you can set to follow you at a specific angle/distance?

If you haven't yet, look up tp4056.
Cheap as fuck and they output 0.8A each(despite claiming 1A) and you can hook them up in parallel for greater current.

10 of them are usually ~3 dollars

>>1128885
Hmm pretty good, so I could hook up one charger per 5 batteries and get 2A output easy?

And then to charge I can just use a single 2A usb input then connect it to both tp4056s?

Sounds awesome

I've been told that, unless you're an electrician or have a comparable level of experience, you're probably going to go through your battery bank in 8-10 years. This is regardless of quality.
That said, if space/weight isn't an issue, I'd recommend NiFe batteries. Very durable, very long life, very forgiving of overcharging and over discharging

Become red-pilled yourself and it will come.

For sure don't post about it on /diy/

>>1128637
Well not with an attitude like that

>>1128635
if by car you mean a thingy that can roll on four wheels, then sure, but something that runs on its own or any where near a working road worthy car, no, bcos u need rubber tires

>>1128643
So put tires over the washing machine rims

Here is a video of what it sounds like

>I recently added Ethernet over power to my house before i had replaced the caps. I am very open to any suggestions.

If you can go without internet for a bit, I'd suggest turning off your router or something to see if the problem persists. Although I have no experience with it personally, I've heard that ethernet over mains interferes with some HiFi equipment.

Turn off the EoP, the noise should go away.
EoP is known to cause interference, so it's better to lay wiring properly or to use wifi than use EoP.

It looks like that wood was weathered and (maybe painted/sanded, rinse repeat) so it split intentionally. You'd get a plank and "stress" it yourself (google this process) depending on the aesthetics. They were looking to make it salvaged barn-wood tier

Old fallen in barns and sheds. Normally in farm country.

>>1125500
Grab a board from a chic table at a flea market. Go to lumber place, buy the cheapest, knottiest piece of shit plank you can find and stress it with heat, oil, lacquer and sanding. Steal a plank from a stables or old barn. Go to beach, search for driftwood. Put untreated wood in saltwater overnight and leave it in the sun. Endless possibilities.

Recently brewed my first batch. Just now I've gone to check on the bottles after having left them in a cool dark room for 2 weeks, and I've noticed this white sediment has built up at the bottom of all the bottles. Does anyone have any idea what this is, why it happened, and whether or not it's still safe to drink? I have no idea what it is - I removed all sediment prior to bottling, and all the bottles had been thoroughly sanitised.

>>1107582
Answer to my own question in case anyone else is wondering: turns out it's very common for bottle-conditioned beers, and the sediment is completely harmless (they're dead yeast particles or something like that). The best way to deal with it is to chill the bottle for a few hours before drinking, which helps to make sure the sediment doesn't mix with the beer when poured - that's exactly what I did, and I very much enjoyed drinking my first homebrewed beer.

>>1107582
>>1107618
Exactly, it's just dormant yeast.When you bottle condition a beer, the priming sugar added a bottling kicks off a secondary, small fermentation. This is what causes the yeast to produce co2 to carbonate your beer. It also causes them to reproduce. So once they finish eating the priming sugar and go back to sleep, they fall to the bottom. Generally in bottle conditioned beers you want to avoid pouring the last 1/4 inch or so of the beer.

I've been on a brewing hiatus for a couple of months after brewing 2-4 times a month for a year. About to get back into it with a zombie dust clone, but I am hoping for a sale on citra soon. $30 a pound is pretty hefty, I've seen it go $20 recently, hoping for a deal like that. Anyone brewed the clone recipe on homebrewtalk? Seems to be well received, that's what I'm using.

EPS foam, probably.

Someone put up a /diy/ Bingo. Christ.

a tabletop ventilator

thanks m8, that's a good idea

I have a bucket full of burnt out cheap helicopters im saving for indoor airship parts. If you cant look at a jumble of parts and be inspired you might be in the wrong neighborhood. Check out the RC thread and look at anons airboat maybe.

Some of the .5 acre is taken up by a 2000 sq. ft. house and a two car drive way.

>>1128481
possible yes

probable, depends on skills and location and weather and luck

>>1128481
>Assuming grain/carbs are purchased.
So, basically fruit, vegetables, herbs, and spices? As >>1128483 said, yes, with the right conditions. Meat will be another matter though.

have you never been in a hardware store or heard of online shopping? also: buying cables or your dad's system are better ideas

step 1: buy a rewireable 4 way adapter extension lead thing. one you wire yourself e.g. you can get a masterplug one from screwfix for <10£
step 2: get an iec 60320 c13 to c14 lead from a computer shop or ebay or something. you can get them in lots of colours now too if you want something fun.
step 3: ut off the c13 plug and throw it in the bin
step 4: connect the c14 end to the multiway socket

now wherever you go you can borrow or steal a computer lead to plug your adapter into.

mk does a range of type a sockets for hotels and shit but i don't know if they do plugs and i don't know where you would find a distributor that actually stocks them.

also note us supply is 110v, sometimes that matters (toasters, vacuum cleaners) sometimes it doesn't (computers, phone chargers) sometimes its hard to tell (computers, televisions) so be aware.

>>1127985

Legs would have looked better as a cantilever

>>1126240
Depends on the tolerances you need to hold. For wood projects, sure, basically any one will be good enough. If you need +-.001 or better then you need to spend a lot more.
