Today I machined.... a neighour's acrylic sink cover!
Apparently he's had it for years and loves it, then got a new sink with a plug in a different location and wanted a 25mm dia, 11mm recess cut into it.
I was going to use a router on it but he seemed very keen to ensure it looked as good as...
Well, you can run it round the skirting boards - bit of a long cut to a short cut.
Ideally, you would run it under / through the floor joists - I'm not sure from your description whether you have access to the floor void - is it really that difficult to lift the chipboard and run it under...
Thanks for the responses - they pretty much echo the debate in the shed: some say there’s nothing to worry about and others say there is a risk.
That’s why it would be incredibly helpful if anyone had any documentation that came down firmly on one or other of the sides of the argument :dontknow:
This has been raised at my local Men’s Shed -
Some want to install LED strip lighting but I am concerned about the strobe effect on rotating tools (there will be wood working lathes, radial saw, table saws etc).
Is there anything definitive (in writing, as opposed to opinion) that states one...
I need to fit two mains extension blocks and a laptop power supply in the home automation cabinet I'm making.
I've always found the "hang the extension block on two screws" standard approach a little janky, so have come up with this - two straps per block / supply, that take the wonderful...
My faith in PETG has been restored. The print finished with an ambient temperature of 43C in the enclosure, and humidity of 16%
The finished print looks lovely. Just got to print the sides and the top and we'll be good to go!
Ref my thread on humidity, I was having mixed results with PETG but realised that my (generic) "SunLu" enclosure was lying in the other room, which kinda defeats the purpose.
So I've restarted a failed print with the printer inside the enclosure and put the Sonoff temp & humidity sensor inside...
Well, ironically, I was in the garage making a cabinet that will house all of the stuff that gathers this data and then runs the home automation stuff.
So it's all a circular feeding-frenzy :D
Good idea. Here's the same kind of sensors - the top is inside the house, the second is in the garage, from 1-28 February.
Looks like the garage maintains 50 points over the house. So on the upside, the house is doing well!
I've got a permanent run dehumidifier in the garage and I know it's...
That's the great thing about Home Assistant - instead of just going out and spending £140 on a Hive, we can spend £137.85 on a variety of components plus 200 hours getting it all working, and then rejoice that we saved over £2 :D
