They are supposed to vent to the outside. I have seen them go straight into the attic or even just blow air into the joists between floors.

>>933189
What would you look for in the outside of the building?

>>933188
To answer your first question, these fans are supposed to exit outside, but could also vent into a central duct leading outside if this is in a modern apartment building.

To answer your second question, yes your neighbours might smell it, of which about 5% via the extract fan and the connected ducts and 95% via natural ventilation through windows and doors, even when they are closed.

Any modern smartphone can read them.

>>929965
Yes but I'm looking into a project that requires about ten separate readers all working at the same time. I don't have 10 smartphones

You can buy ten unlocked cell phones for less than 50 each.

image stabilization, adobe... or, if its short, edit the frames like for a cartoon

Did you try turning it off and back on again?

>>933943
I dont understand what you are saying
Cant you just rebolt whatever wire you pulled off?

No so the bolts part is sort of irrelevant, so the buttons you push to detach the back seats is obviously controlled by the wire. I accidentally detached the wire itself that allows the car seats to go down, and I can't reattach it because when I put the seats back up they are covering the wire And it's unaccesable. :(

You just answered your own question, replace the electric furnace with something that isn't an inefficient piece of shit.

Generally I would always recommend doing upgrades to piping. A thick wrap would help insulate the pipes that carry you heat and water to their destination. As far as mods to the unit... In not sure really.

Another pic... Any gurus out there?

It's a USB thumbdrive you can put on a keychain

>>932332

not necessarily. it could be a access key for the safe. newer safes have these electronic keys you put into a slot or they have some you just touch the side of it to a plate like a RFID reader and access the safe.

makes sense if OP found it while working on a safe

>>932332
Yeah, I don't know if I buy that. Take a better picture op

Utility? Practical? A spring knife? Go back to /b/

a big knife is infinitely useful: i just have to pull it out a lil' bit and my hoes stop yaking and get back to they corners where they belong.

>>931680
yeah, there's really no benefit of a spring knife that is worth the hassle of dealing with weapons laws. I can open a regular folder (even one without the little assist knob or 'spring assist') one handed, since i still have all my fingers.
Plus, my instinct has always been to not trust the locking mechanism of a lot of folding knives. framelocks always seem to jam open on me, and don't trust the straight folders, so lockback for the win imo.

The image I uploaded is a 1:20 build in balsa wood to show the general looks I am looking for

Steel is best.
Rifled barrel really helps.

>>933168
Steel is my dream goal, however I would prefer something cheaper and easier to work with for the prototypes.
Also, do you think that a Rifled barrel will help for a subsonic projectile? This protect may be just a glorified crossow

they need a tropical wheather, try to keep it away from the cold

> 1300x800
Means nothing without units.

Considering that is a fairly standard desk size and I referred to AUD I thought the average persons deduction skills would figure it out, but in case you didn't its mm that I am referring to.

Does it need to be 1300? Will 1200 do? I only ask because ply will be your cheapest option, but it comes in 1200 or 2400 length. If you can get away with 1200 then you can make two desks per one sheet of ply.

How stable do these tables nee dto be? Are they for display or working on?

>>933904
Lrn2logicalDeduction you idiot. Do you genuinely think he means 1300 meters by 800 meters or something?

He is. Also weird as fuck.

Seconded.

>replace the internal battery with something much larger
There's always plenty of space inside consumer electronics cases, go for it and cram some 18650s in there.

Just spray a sheet of steel with enamel then glue it to the wall. Instant magnetic white board. Google says drywall adhesive. Just ask your hardware store which adhesive is good for attaching brushed stainless to drywall in a kitchen. Because that's a thing people do for splash guards.

>>932556
But I already bought a magnetic board, It's too late to do that now.

It's for my office, and everytime I write something on the board, I do it on my chair and think, not standing up your ass everytime.

Ferrous metal. Glue it up with PL premium

Don't do it. This makes nerve gas.

>Copy that; ogre and out.

At the moment I feel physically and mentally ruined. With my current job taking up 40+ hours a week every free moment is basically carrying out DIY and because I'm time short and need to do it around working I can't undertake massive work without taking time off which means my relationship is suffering because I've never any time, money or inclination to take a holiday or even socialise much. My girlfriends optimism is quickly turning into generally being resentful of life, but then she IMO isn't holding up her end of the deal by also growing and changing as a person, she basically wants to work, lounge around in relative comfort and do nice social things.

Ok, so if the roof needs replacing I can budget for that and then that is done, but I can't then afford to do anything else except minor work like pointing, bit of brick work, keeping the garden from being an overgrowing hellhole etc. The roof is structurally sound, but the nails holding the slate in place are 130+ years old and as a result a couple tend to rot out every few months meaning I'm back up their nailing them down and securing them with hooks. There are thousands of nails on the roof so this isn't a very rational way to deal with the roof except in the short term.

I've got all the plaster mouldings at the front needing painting up. The wood frames on the porch etc need painting, and windows at the side and some at the back are still single glazed timber framed and while not rotted out are basically made of paint.

I guess I'm just so stressed I can't prioritise or muster up the motivation to do things except which are crying out for attention. I've got old wall mounted gas heaters in some rooms which need disconnecting, bricking up and making good and then the interior will need plaster repairs and decorating. Doesn't make sense to do them until I'm possibly rewiring because that will disturb the plaster on those walls in those rooms as well.

I paid maybe 50 grand below rate for this house 'done'.

Anyway, I guess I'm just venting. Basically the problem is.

>Tackle jobs as they appear due to being urgent.
Tends to be a huge waste of time and money because you repeat work like cleaning, decorating and disposing of waste a bunch of times because jobs lead to other jobs.

>Tackle one or two major jobs a year lumped together in some sort of priority, IE roof alongside guttering and fascias, soffits, barge boards, pointing due to having scaffolding up.
Costs pretty much 90% of my income after priority bills and because I'm paying others it is about as expensive as the first way, just less soul and time consuming.

Basically at my current speed of work and income this house is going to take 20 years to sort out. I don't think I'll remain sane nor will my relationship. I'm considering selling it but then I'm concerned that I'm going to encounter hundreds of idiots trying to knock it down because it is what it is, an older house requiring work doing to it to bring it up to a high standard.

Then what? Buy something modern in a shit area which is designed for people who like to work and watch TV to occupy?

Urghh I'm just venting I guess. I think this would be easier if I had someone else on my side.

My gf can't understand why I'm not decorating the 1960's decor upstairs because I'm like we aren't decorating until the roof is done because the ceiling is water damaged and will need ripping down and replacing or boarding over and I'm not doing that until I'm ready to fit central heating in this room because of the mess and I'm not doing that until the floor comes up which isn't happening until I rewire and I'm not doing that until the roof is done.
