No delivery but if I can get one to you without it costing a fortune, I can make you one. Trying to figure it all out right now.

That would be grand. Thanks. 

 

Stevasaurus and Squonk have sent me things. Maybe they can advise you about shipping.

I have two in progress. One is spoken for and if you want the other, it’s yours. Still haven’t figured out a price yet. I’ll pm you and we’ll figure something out. Depending on If you just want the painted lexan and wood frame or stained with back lighting. I haven’t gotten that far yet. Trying to finish mine up as an example.

Once you get all the details sorted out I will definitely be interested in one but I am not pushing on you.  I understand you’re still working it all out.  Plz do let me know when you are available to make one for me.  Thanks

The Trina person and I have been hangin' out in the Great North Maine Woods for 5 days.  

Absolutely wonderful week. 

Weather was near to perfect until light rain today on the way home.  

 

We saw a Momma moose 🫎 with a baby. An adult female deer 🦌 told us off. 🙂 LOTS of bird life. 

We bushwhacked several miles Tuesday to find where a road comes out. Rest Wednesday with some AR15 target practice. 

Thursday we hiked Big Spencer mountain. 

 

Best I've felt in at least 2 years.  

 

Pics to come later.....

I finally assembled my garage "stereo". Two 12" powered monitors @ 2,000 watts each and two 12" powered subs @ 1,000 watts each.  Adequate bass, so there may be an 18" sub in the works.

Are you going to be putting on concerts? Or really just want your neighbors to know what kind of music you like? 🤣🤣👍🏻

Finalized the Mini Gimbal for the Thermalcopter.

Shure gimbals can be purchased, but the most weight more than 100 gramms.

This reduces my Airtime too much.

i don‘t need a 3 Axis, because the Copter flies relatively stable also on a gently Breeze.

So i decided to built my own 2 Axis gimbaL where my planned goal was to built one that must be lighter than 80 gramms.

That‘s definitely a challenge.

So i started several calculations and try 2 different Designs

second Design Winns.

 

 

to compare the size, on the left is an Makita Accu for the small DF330 Accudrill

 

so i started to built one as light as possible ( for the Moment) 

 

each motor weights 19,4 gramms

the Electronic weight 8,7 gramms

sensor weight 0,9 gramms

Wires weights 7 gramms

that‘s a total of 55,4 gramms.

 

all other weight is by the Plasticmounts..

 

 

and here the final Result...

 

 

The scale told me i just have 7,5 gramms in my Construction needed.

 

boooom - this weight surprises me also myself.

I believe it’s a Muffler check system, if you ain’t hear the Engine, it‘s too silent....😎🤪

I used to set up my DJ equipment outside my porch. I put my laptop on play and had some 70’s/80’s music playing. I had already asked my neighbors if they minded me playing anything and they were cool with it. I came out of the shed and they were all dancing around their pool deck.

I found myself needing a puttering day.

Nothing big but something to do while it's raining.

I picked up a double bit ax head in a junk pile a few days ago. While cleaning it up it had Bangor Me.. stamped in it.. Turns out it is a Snow & Kneally head. Apparently around the turn of the century. I just happen to have a couple double bit handles kicking around.  A little dry rubbed black paint on the head and wedge with the new handle and an edge I now have a nice handy new to me tool .

[Oldskool 6,644]

More puttering......couldn't work on WH tractors outside so I'm working on tractors inside.   A bit of up-cycling.

 

 

[ebinmaine 67,508]

I built an outdoor stand for the 220V compressor today.  All scrap wood and a couple lbs of screws.  Sets under one of the barn shed roofs.

Officially 1/2 way done with this barn, meaning about 1/4 way through the project!

 

As for today?  My back is 100% done!
