do you live in a country that doesnt sell all the electric fence accoutrements in a nice row at your local big box store.

>>1217417
the only thing big box stores carry are the over priced plastic insulators meant to stick into wooden posts

notch the pvc and tighten the wire or get a male to male adapter, cut the pvc in three and then put the adapter on so you have bump out for the wire to rest on.

>Planning to drill along the bottom in intervals and inject with a water proof sealant, wait for it to dry,

This achieves nothing, wtf are you trying to do here?

>replace the pipes for the sink just in case

Again, why? If it ain't broke why fix it?

>tiling

Just tile the area that will get slashed on i.e. around the sink, no need to tile the whole thing, the broken wall will give a nice contrast against the new tiles and will make the right atmosphere of the "ghetto luxury" look you want.

>limestone

Just look at the houses around and copy them, don't try to science the whole thing again

>Its cheaper for me to move into a run down house with friends and renovate it myself than to rent a tiny crummy apartment.

you will fix 1 problem get 2 more.

>meant to say inject a water proof membrane. Again limestone is extremely porous. It should have no problem spreading and should stop any more damage as well as help is dry. It should also help stop mold from forming.

>Because its old and the last thing I want it to have to replace everything once everything is installed and up and running. Just trying to prevent more costs down the road.

>will probably only do that but I'll still need to cover the whole wall up with cement. Because of the damage it produces a lot of dust, so would rather not have that in the kitchen. That or at the very least use mold resistant paint.

>Most people here just let their houses rot or spend a shit ton of money on hiring a company to do it for them, I would rather not be over charged for something I could in theory do myself. That and most companies just slap a piece of insulated board onto the wall to hide the damages instead of tackling the actual issue. Even if I did pay to have shit fixed for me I want a proper solution not just a band aid slapped onto it.

>Heater positive to K0 on chip.

my guess is the power supply cant provide enough current to the device: when the relay clicks on, it drops the power supply voltage, which shuts down the device.

also, temporarily remove the jumper in case you screwed that up in some way.

oh, wait a minute. you're using the same 12V supply to turn on a 120W heater? that's crazy. you need a really big big supply to do that.

Can't put a price on pride, son.

Do a good job for the pastor ignore the 2 other retards and be on your mary way knowing that your not some failure in life and you atleast did some good for that house

No. Don't work with degenerates who have no pride or integrity.

Also any general welding tips for a first timer who wants to get into stick welding

Instead of wasting $150, why don't you spend a few hundred extra dollars of something thjat isn't a piece of shit.

>>1216764
do some online research, watch some youtube videos, and buy a good face mask and welding apron.

As far as I know, there's no workaround to having a bank account or a credit card. You can process your etsy payments via paypal, but they will be deposited to your bank account or cc balance, not your paypal balance.

Modular devices typically lack compactness, outward aesthetics and can often be complex, driving away customers that may otherwise buy.

>I can sell you this modular phone, which comes with decent specs but will need additional purchases and software revisions to get more features like a camera, longer battery or a louder speaker.

>s there any reason not to go modular for any type of product?

When you realize the modularity comes at a usually ridiculous cost. Case in point I bought a p320 for the "modularity" aspect as I would be able to have a full size, compact and subcompact with only one gun. Then I saw that the conversion kits were basically the price of an entire gun.

The pistol cost me like $550 but the conversion kits are going for $400 so I may as well buy another gun rendering the original purpose moot.

from what I understand its the two points up top as well as the fact that being built with a single design in mind will let it perform better, be smaller, be cheaper and honestly you are going to find the one configuration you like and stick to it. hell you might change some stuff every once in a blue moon but you probably aren't going to be changing shit out every week

The very front and middle of the screen has sparked when I first turned it on. Dosent do it everytime though,

You have a cap or potentiometer charging values with heat anon.

aluminimum foil from the kitchen

>>1216533

I'm looking for the same thing, anon. Thanks for making the thread. We can both learn together.

That foil guy is technically correct but when I tried that I couldn't sleep at night because any bug even a small cockroach makes a hell of a racket when they run up a piece of tinfoil.

Maybe some anon can speak to that, how to deaden the sound of a sheet of tin foil.

>>1216473
I'm no expert in this, but that sounds incredibly retarded. You want to take something that operates off a drivetrain, and is designed around it, and convert it to a direct motor drive? I could be wrong, but I think that is why there is no market.

>let's just gut literally everything that makes the car good, and replace it with some motors

way to ruin a car, also electric cars still aren't green

the batteries use dangerous chemicals, and the power used to charge the car almost always comes from either coal, or oil based power plants

nuclear in some regions

>>1216477
The combustion engine takes up a specific compartment and has a particular torque/RPM tuning with the gearbox, apart from this it is a source of rotation force, not some magical doohickey. Surely an electric motor would handle turning those gears at the speeds and torques required? I see no argument here.


>>1216481
Green doesn't mean "free as in air" or "no fossil energy cost". Who gave you that impression? Anyways, I would disagree that ripping out the crappy engines of old-ish cars and replacing them with more powerful electric engines is bad. You seem to think I wish to force this on anyone, while I simply stated that I don't understand why the public hasn't adopted it.

>TL;DR I expected these responses, don't be basic.

I can answer no.3 for you and you do not want a large canister of pressurized gasoline anywhere near you or your property, and especially not anywhere near a turbojet engine in operation. Use a high-pressure fuel pump and have a smaller canister closer to the nozzle that you can pressurize to give some extra startup juice

I really don't know about the hole/chamber ratio.

But
>>1216365
Has the right idea. A high pressure fuel pump connected to a "hydropneumatic" chamber can assure a steady pressurized flow. There are injectors that aereolize the fuel, they have nozzles like atomizers. It would be helpful if you could have a small presurrized air pipe going paralel to the injecror, so the fuel get's air directly. Or a pre-oxidation chamber. I understand that this is not what the jet is for, but it would help to make combustion more efficient.

Also, are you building a generator? Or do you want Thrust?

BTW i've mooded the phone, so now he can power on when the power is connected and turns down 1 min after the power is unconnected.

The thing here is to give the phone the ability to safely shutdown using other power source.

>>1216327
The battery is always ready to supply power, retard. Turn off the phone, then turn off your car. Fucking easy.

With battery everything runs perfect. However in the long run (and due to the fact that will be placed inside of a car) the weather conditions - like a hot day - can damage the battery. So a best solution should be replace it for a capacitor.

I'm guessing what you would do is hit the whole thing with a dremel wire brush, dip the entire thing in whatever appropriate paint (enamel is first thing that comes to mind), and then hit it with a wire brush again painstakingly outside the numbers. hand work that will make them feel made with love and care.

First, try some organic solvents that won't hurt the metal finish. Paint thinner, mineral spirits, acetone, etc. and try to wipe the numbers off with a cloth. If a solvent works, dunk the dice in there and leave them overnight. The numbers should just wipe clean.

When they're all clean and dry, replace the color with some nice model paint or some other relatively thick paint you can dispense with a needle tip bottle into the numbers.

There is an entire antena assembly running through the screen, 2 thin cables are directly connected to it's Wifi/Bluetooth card right now.

It's definitely not a software issue.

Problem is, Apple is so fucking retarded, even among models of the same code (A1466) they have variations, something that I didn't know. The screen's camera cable doesn't fit in the I/O board thanks to that

the real problem is, you bought that piece of shit im the first place

>>1216137
Re-drop in dumpster, buy non-gay device you faggot.

Just buy a metal blade...ive cut through 1/2" steel bolts on my front bushings with a reciprocating saw...probably like 5-8 bucks

>>1216123
Yep. Just spend a Jackson on a decent metal rated blade.

>>1216120
Niggers go around with the cordless ones at night and cut out ppls catalytic converter, stab a hole in the trucksgas tank too so yeah its easy to do with the right blade.
