If you want to measure a voltage you need an ADC, and possibly a voltage divider. If you need to measure current you also need a shunt resistor. To control a servo you should use a servo HAT. Look up all the tutorials for the stuff I mentioned and you should be able to make it work.

Yes, it's more work than clicking a few things on each other.

From the first time I considered it I knew it probably wouldn't be easy. Thank you anon.

>measure electricity

/diy/, I need to measure water. How do?

We get it, you vape.

Vaporizing LPG causing temperature drop causing cylinder to shrink, trapping the ball?
Just a guess. I can't properly imagine how the system works.

check that the feed tanks are actually full of propane.

I'd love to help OP, I really would. Possibly split them in half, do a half lap joint in the middle? That would probably just look like crossed dicks though. Take a sharpie and write "Not actual size" on the... shaft?... no matter what, so at least you're not embarrassed, and call it a conversation starter?

>>987666
not actual size seemed reasonable

Pic went sideways for no reason.

lolwut?
ok, if its not mold what is it?

>>987637
It's mold
There is water leaking in

Here you go.

Step 1: give up trying to have everything hooked up to the TV at once.
Step 2: put each system in its own box with the games and accessories if possible
Step 3: rig up some video inputs and a power outlet so you can easily hook up whatever you want to play

Please please please let them sit for a while before you go salvaging. Tv's can be very very dangerous. Huge caps. Wait like a week to be extra safe

>>987656
short the caps and post pics of insides

>>987656
Just short them yourself to be sure, a week is nog enough for big caps, it could take months

Blade weakener.

Two cell phones, a wallet, a gun (Glock 19 at home, .38 derringer at work), a knife (Kershaw freefall at home, Milwaukee fastback utility knife at work) and a Klien 11-in1 whenever I'm actually working. My pockets stay pretty full but 90% of the shit gets done without a trip to the toolbox.

Nice design.

Me too. But i would guess the selfmade ones are cheapest.

Alunar 3D is in the $300 price range

>>987520
any good DIY kits out there?

What is it- marine, structural or panel?

>>987486
it's on the side wall of a keel... so marine.

>>987487
Get a face mask, one of those disposable coverall and you'll need a sander.
Slowly cut back the layers around the crack and see how far the damage goes in. Fibreglass gets 'rot' so to speak where the layers separate as the epoxy has degraded- if the layers around the crack are able to be pushed in then you know its got some serious delamination and that'll generally be out of your amateur scope to fix.

If its still solid, then its a case of fibreglass, epoxy, more glass, epoxy, sanding and then repainting.

>Northwest Pacific

AYE, You /Washington/?

>>987461
AYYY /olympia/ here m8

>>987462
Because only an Evergreen retread would phrase it "Northwest Pacific", instead of "Pacific Northwest"

>>987267
I have some tree stumps that need to be removed.

>>987267
Try making a stone path. Lots of variables buy depending on the stone type, it can be a lot of work. I do think stones don't cost too much

>>987267
Pick rocks in farmers fields. That is serious work. Then build a little rock hit with walls and stick roof

>>987165
>be wizard

>>987165
There's a lot of wire there that needs to be dealt with. I sure hope those aren't voltage lines. In fact, the 'r' at the end is rather useless.

>>987165
Start by inventing a universe where that's possible.

>>986976
Did it ever work? What made it not work?

>>986981
The outlet does not work still. If you're talking about the space heater that used to be there, the space heater worked. i don't know why it was removed

>>986983
So the outlet worked until you plugged in a space heater and now it doesn't? Have you checked all the breakers in the main panel to see if any are tripped? There is no guarantee that all the outlets in your room are on the same circuit.

Twisted wire cable makes superb vibration-isolating material.

I don't think this will be sturdy enough..

It is. And if it isn't, you can always make it sturdier.

Also, vibration isolation and "sturdiness" in the form of rigidness are fundamentally-conflicting goals. You DO realize this, right?

Like they said over in /adv/ - you need a 'grow the fuck up' bottle.

So much to ask before I even attempt to answer.
What is the relative position of the locker to the vent, the type of locker is it, the type of liquid, the type of vent, whether you want the liquid to remain inside the locker or flow outside, whether there's something inside the vent, is the vent covered with something, how much liquid are you squirting and what effect do you expect the squirting to cause, the viscosity of the liquid, why a bottle, whether you have access to any kind of pump or whether you have to build your own pumping system, what's your budget, whether you really expected Tiffany to fuck you instead of Chad (I mean you're pretty fucking creepy, dude, and kind of retarded).
Give me facts, OP. I can't just answer your stupid autistic questions like that.

Personally I preferred the hard boiled egg stuffed through the vent on friday before a weeks vacation.
