What size is it? It'll probably be useless with anything less than 800 rpm (assuming it's similar to your pic)

Pen for size

Typical "what do this" threads like this should be banned

Why the fuck do you think this would be good?

theres a briggs engine somewhere around here with a hole drilled through a connecting rod bolt and safety wired to another bolt on the oil splasher thing. i forgot why i did it

>>1081976
Perhaps you didn't want the bolt to the oil dump thing falling out?

oil sump*** my bad

I've got my eyes on this one, I'm planning an automated garden in my garage with some similar concepts, it doesn't seem too intricate save for the relays to get my repurposed sump pumps and the dryer heater element to regulate water levels and air temperature

Drop arduino and use raspberry(or any equivalent) instead. It will save you a huge amount of time inventing things like tcp socket on arduino which is incredibly easy on raspi. It have 3.3V IO ports which you will never use all and is capable working with various SPI components which youll find libraries for (for example MC3008 8port adc). You may even use odroid which already have adc on board. Good luck...

holy shit anon, are you me ?
>bump
wiring is fairly easy bud, however I think that it'd be a bit difficult to setup a code with an arduino that can do that,
I strongly suggest you use the Blynk platform for its simplicity and that you use arduino with builtin wifi, it will save you a lot of time, since I have an arduino nano that I tried attaching to ESP8266 (basically wifi shield for arduino) and it was a pain in the ass.

my aeroroponics is basically just a styrofoam box with a 3$ 5v dc chinese pump from ebay, the arduino sleeps and wakes up every minute to spray for 6 seconds, uses very little power.
I don't plan on using sensors and shit since it's indoors and I'm still in experimental stage.
I suggest you get yourself some TIP120 or FQP30N06L instead of relays, saves energy and less likely to fail,

Thats literally the only way, which is why it wont ever happen

one word


Mexicans.


have you seen how fast those drug tunnels pop up? With rail carts, ventilation, and lighting?

It's no secret Mexicans can frame up a house in under an hour

About 10% of the workforce don't have jobs right now.
We give away BILLIONS of colors in foreign aid every year. We are giving just Israel 3.8 billion a year for the next 10 years.
>stop giving away tax payer money
>use it to build factory's for modular wall pieces
>hire out-of-work Americans for the factorys
>hire Americans to install along the border

That wasn't very hard...

me and my brother made some shitty homemade rockets out of rocket candy cardboard and some bog

about one in twenty worked the rest just fizzed out we probably made 30 or so rockets all of different designs

the ones that did work were quite amazing though reaching close to a kilometer vertically

I got a 2 liter bottle, taped some cardboard wings on it and a little parachute. My teacher filled it with water and pumped air into it until it flew up. 9.8/10 would make again

Look up rocket candy.
Potassium Nitrate and Sugar make a great rocket propellant. Its essentially the DIY standard for rocket making. I recommend using thin walled PVC pipe (cpvc) or even thin copper/steel pipe.

you're not printing that unless you make the file yourself. it's a worm wheel/spur gear combo likely made of acetal.

you're more likely to run into and pay less for a working one at a thrift store

>>1078810
This.
It's already around $40 just for a suitable material to print with. And that's not taking into account the hours you spend making the model and the tweaks you'll have to make to account for shrinkage

Same problem here, but the mistake was my fault, I wanted to nail a picture but I used wood nails on a concrete wall, the hammer broke the nail and hit my hand, I loose it and fell on the cat's head.
Now I only put my pictures on facebook, true story.

that's a pretty bad job for sure

but cherish the fact that he wanted to do that for you at all.

you'll miss it when he can't anymore

And before someone says "gripping pipes"

Nope, for that there's this.

How about a tool for when you can't bring 3-4 different ones you dumb shit. Do you take your whole shop everywhere you go?

>>1076347
Hydraulic pipes. Like brakes on a car. Those buggers strip all too easily on an old rusty piece of shit. Then I use one of those. In general rusty bolts on cars. Stripping sucks.

pentacryl or just paint with latex paint and put a damn pillow on top so you dont get a taint splinter

>>1076062
what are some pic relateds that i can turn into a fleshlight?

>>1076062
Might want to just set em in your shed and wait till next year to start the project. Especially if the tree was still alive when it was cut down

>>1074500
maybe it is just another colored resin, in this case white, ''brushed'' through with something thin, perhaps a needle maybe

>>1074500
I thought about getting into doing this resin stuff. Looks pretty cool, and your pic makes me want to do it even more now because I love wood working. Combo of the two would be pretty cool I think.

Anyways, I did some quick research on your behalf OP, and as usual it took a matter of two minutes to find relevant information.

You want to mix alcohol ink into your initial resin batch, and like >>1074504 said, you're going to use a tooth pick or needle to achieve your swirl effect.

Info on the above posted site will be more thorough than what I figured from 30 seconds of reading.

A thread has been made on this topic before.

Maybe you'll find an answer

Just in it for the money? Prostitution or plumbing. Either way, you're laying pipe.
Out to have fun? Carpentry or metalwork or some shit.

Underwater welding. Cant get more dangerous.

Glass and window fitting. People underestimate it but it's good money. A mate of mine does it on price and he can make anything up to £3k a week on the right job .

Shitty tools will yield shitty work. Similarly if you're unskilled and too incompetent to google "how to square a RAS" you will produce shitty work undoubtedly.
You don't need a power tool, you just need A tool you can use competently.

Is it a Craftsman radial arm saw? They were made by Emerson and are generally considered to be poor machines when it comes to maintaining accuracy. On the plus side, they were recalled for safety problems and you can get $100 if you live in the USA and ship them the carriage. You might be able to buy a decent used saw for that. http://www.radialarmsawrecall.com/

DeWalt and Delta made good radial arm saws. They hold their zeros well when calibrated properly. You can find how to do this in the manual. They also can be had for next to nothing. Post your local Craig's List and I will have a look and see if their are any good radial arm saws or table saws in your area.

Picture related. Real DeWalt tools were blue or green.

Radial arm saws never stay in square. Get a good compound sliding miter saw if you want more precision.

Get a table saw and an Incra miter gauge if perfection is required.

k, right, even at -20 °F there can be relevant clothes, but consider the following
>in January I will probably have my teeth freeze against my cheeks
>my lashes used to freeze together less frequently, now this happens critically often
That's more like a job for a snowmobile helmet.

Balaclavas are a thing, but rib-knit ones might get you in trouble depending on your location. And they don't save you from real cold.
