Not ip67 as far as I see and also doesn't seem to be (on)-off-(on)

Splash proof so....

Made a double din conversion for the Merc SLK dashboard as it only ever came with a poxy single din, and needs a better satnav screen etc.
Then, I scanned it in 3d, so I can make more. Along with the rest of the interior plastics. Stuff paying 300 quid for a fragile original clock surroud...
So I've told it now, if it breaks again, I'm finishing my large size 3d printer project quick and Ima just gonna print a new interior for it.

Now got to put it all back in after removing all the zillions of marker spots...

I was just going to seal the switch box with some black rtv or similar but I found some 1mm rubber at the workshop so decided to see how it would laser. Took a good lot of attempts to find decent settings but in the end I got there and made a gasket that works perfectly.

I used to get my lad to print replacement gaskets for Harting plugs in TPU.

Rotary idler motor wired in for the static converter. Idea from here: https://www.mig-welding.co.uk/forum/threads/turing-a-static-phase-converter-into-a-rotary.99115/

4kw Motor from Martin in the freebies, thanks again, and a few other bits and pieces as I didn't fancy altering the insides of the transwave.

Amazing how much faster everything spins up and seems to run a little smoother. Would be nice to get a measurement of current and volts at some point in the future

Made fire.

Contributed a good deal of brush and branches to our next-door neighbour's burn pile, which has become a semi-annual event for a few residents on our street. The photo below shows the initial 8-foot-high 'starter' pile of wood and brush, to which we added about three times that much wood and brush over the course of a few hours. The radiated heat was quite intense. Our neighbour had to obtain a burn permit from the fire department to make that big of a fire.

It’s been a year since I’ve touched this but I finally got around to fitting the front end today. There’s still a few bits of welding to do but hopefully those won’t take me a year to get done.

Made a start on the Stepper drive mounts for the Steve Ward rotary controllers:



Gave me a chance to try out my new pipe bullnose, it worked really well, only another six to do, then tackle the mounting plates:

I made a sheet of stainless become smaller bits

I made some beer cans into storage with 3D printed lids and a rack to hold them on the CNC.

Because you can never have enough storage
