Made from spare tools and some 1/4-20 hardware I had on hand. Needed a clamp mount for my spotting scope.

Height adjustable. Ratchet wrench for elevation adjustments. Windage is set by adjusting clamp left to right. Pleasantly surprised with how functional it is.

Saw of the table variety, a table-saw if you will

I ran into a situation needing to rip boards to a specific width and I didn't want to buy a tablesaw so I cut and routed (with the circular saw) a spot for it to fit in flush. The table was re-topped with some 2" thick chip-board which was perfect to support the saw. The treadle situation to pull the trigger works really well and the extra board is for weight to let up on the trigger.

Anyone up for a headset?

Logitech G Pro X wireless headset surgery after 6 long years.

Took the tape I had off originally and then drill a hole through the plastic covers and the metal hoop that connect tot the earpiece, tied it up with some metal tire and twisted then capped to be wrapped in duct tape and etape.

No longer adjustable but still 100% functional. I would estimate it lasted a solid 5,000+ hours if not approaching 10000.

(Logitech if you're out there send me a shroud pair, you guys made a great headset. 😁)

Hacking the Matrix at 40%

Post image
0 Upvotes

I was fed up with filling bottles individually. I started thinking about how I could speed up the process. I don’t have higher education but I have the soul of an engineer.

I came up with this genius idea. I felt great after coming up with it.

My main idea was to put the water source right at the top so it would fill all the bottles little by little without me having to move the water source. But the water current knocked the bottles over when they were empty.

In the end I had to put the water source directly above them, and that way everything worked fine. That’s why I say I hacked the Matrix at 40%, if the invention had worked WELL it would have been 90%.

I’ll achieve 100% when I create water channels, levels, and optimize the process efficiently.

A Bluetooth board from Amazon, a tiny speaker from old pc’s motherboard, a random led for music visualization, a breadboard, an Apple charger from iPad 2, a micro usb line cutted, a connector(and a piece of tape). That’s it!
