You're trying to over complicate things. If a piece of wood or angle iron works then use that.

If you make a mitre guage out of two pieces of wood fixed at right angles to each other and it works, then use than.

The type of bandsaw it is, won't be as accurate are you're hoping for anyway.

I just saw someone on youtube who made something like the op pic, with one end fixed and a toggle clamp on the other....that was pretty cool.

It will at least be better than trying to cut it by hand

I could see a miter gauge from 3 pieced of wood, a cheap school protractor, and a screw on handle of some kind working really well.

Long thin piece of wood for the slide. A piece of wood to hold the protractor and handle assembly. The last block of wood at 90 degrees standing as the pushing block, Attached to the last block. A bolt going through the guide, protractor block, and protractor. The handle screws down on the bolt clamping it all together.

No, no recommendation.

Yeah, get a Stirling engine

What sort of tools do you have etc? Anything you can actually make a Stirling engine/strandbeast?

Otherwise buying a prefabricated "kit" is not diy, it's model building

Set up a static IP for your phone on your router then have your esp ping that every few seconds. If it can't ping you, you're not home.

This'd only work if your router is close enough to the entrance of your house to connect before you make it through the door.

Also, if that runs python, it'd be really easy to use pushbullet instead of ittt. I'm sure other languages can do pushbullet stuff too but I've only ever used python.

>Could use tasker but don't want to set that up on each phone.
You can export profiles though.

Op here ive been all over the net looking for help. I can connect with an enther net cable but i want my wifi. Do yall think a wireless usb might work

>>1056511
>I can connect with an enther net cable but i want my wifi

Google the model number + drivers
Download your Wlan driver and install it. It should be on Asus website.

Rare imitation crab table

bumb

my thoughts are to stop being a fucking hippie retard and use some goddamned gorilla glue like a normal person

Try substituting shellac-based resin glue.

>hang it from the celing
it will work as long as you give space for it to allow air flow

>>1056206

Do you mean hang the fan horizontal? The bearing isn't designed for that, it might or might not wear down faster.

I had a desk fan mounted to the wall above my bed...kept it clean of dust and pointed out toward the room when I wasn't sleeping. Ran constantly. Lasted just over a year. It was a Honeywell from Target. It didn't run as well mounted as it did sitting, because of the angle I suppose. There are ceiling mounted oscillating fans but they aren't cheap at all.

Because it makes certain people here very angry.

If you don't know, this is a normal, flapper style toilet. But you probably knew that.

Lets more water out at the first opening, full 360, rather than with a regular flapper where it's peeled up slowly, starting with a trickle increasing until fully open.

Think of it as an early version of low flush toilets, by combining the low material contact, wear, and replacement with the original power of a flush ball or disk.

compare it to the newer lower flush kohlers with a bucket similar to that, but with more buoyancy to raise quicker, or the toto or american standard version with a ring around a plastic flapper that moves straight up on a guide like the wire and ball flush balls.

I think Mansfield style designs are the norm in Norway, and unless there's something wrong with the float assembly or clogs in the exhaust line somwhere, they never struggle to dismiss even the largest of dumps.

Apparently, this is a problem in amerilardistan, whereas I've never really encountered "clogged toilets" here unless obviously trying to use a whole rolls worth of paper. Even for the hugest most solid of shits.

you're not going to be able to make black boots brown

>>1056075
They are dyed black forever. There is nothing you can do to make them brown. They are not nice boots. Save your money and buy a good pair of boots that will last.

Spray paint.

Cool it as slowly as possible.
Use larger volume for bigger crystals (obvious)
Dont disturb it while it cools, vibrations cause small crystals to form.
Cover the crystals from oxygen when you pour the liquid off.
Use high purity bismuth, otherwise the crystals wont be colorful.

>>1056048
Why would I cover the crystals while pouring the molten metal off ? Wouldn't it cause the crystals to not become colorful ? Otherwise it would look like any other metal

>>1056032
Did this in highschool.

>melt elemental bismuth
>allow to cool down to 585f
>insulate container
>hang seed crystal of bismuth just below surface
>gradually lower as temperature draps or you see crystal formation protruding
>when temperature reads 581-2 hover a chunk of dry ice over the container and allow it to sublimate to fill the pocket with co2 gas.
>remove crystal
>keep it suspended in the co2 gas
>Wait for it to come to room temperature

The co2 will insulate against oxidation but will do so in a gradient so you get various levels of oxidation and sheen

The color of the crystal is directly related to the oxidation layers thickness and is a result of light waves interfering with itself just like titanium and niobium

>>1056023
Create a standard pattern for yourself. Or do one piece properly and measure the resulting dimensions. Then transfer it to the others.

>>1056568
Okay that makes sense
How would I do that exactly?
I've been out of practice with pattern drafting for quite a few years; I'm more than a bit rusty

Is it wrong that after years of 4chan I don't assume this is a girl. I immediately jumped to the conclusion of this being a trap or some sissy mental disorder.

Steam is always good

>>1056007
soak in bleach

>>1056011
>>1056009
spray coils with 1:4 bleach mix?

/b/ is telling me to use break cleaner.

>>1055964

Take it in for the deposit, or throw it out.

>>1055966
Tell me something cool damn it

>>1055964
crush the glass into fine powder and snort it

>>1055957

ok so.. engine and blade work, but it died... uhm what exactly died on it that cant be easily fixed with a repair or replacement part. the engine is the heart of the mower, usualyl whe na mower dies its because the engine is blown beyond repair...

be more specific tell us whats wrong with it, what actually DIED?

never seen a mower design like that where it's essentially connected front and back through that tube

theres very little that isn't fixable on a riding mower, unless you totally stripped gears or something

>>1056258

Gas tank leaks, fuel line broke, fuel filter broke, carburetor is done for, starter doesn't work, the shifter is falling off.
