I had a potentiometer on a circuit board that adjusted a timer, but I found that the timer varied in timing. I ended up replacing with a few resistors and it corrected the variations.
- Comment on What ongoing projects are you working on? 1 week ago:
We just got a 2,500 gallon tank, but it’s not connected yet, also going to collect rain water soon. Soon we will have a food garden too, but that’s one of the last things we are going to focus on. At least we started a compost pile already because I know that will take a year or two to be ready.
- Comment on What ongoing projects are you working on? 1 week ago:
A homestead. It’s never ending and everything takes longer than expected. Today we are going to move some boulders as a foundation for shipping containers.
Here is a photo from 2 days ago, we did the first half. But the other side will be above ground to level the container. Image

Before I moved I used to use my web server.
My Domain . Com / files . Zip And I would set a password on the zip. After they download it, they tell me and I remove the file.
- Comment on How old do you think this dimmer knob is? And how to remove it? 3 weeks ago:
Usually you pull the knob and it is removed. But being that old it might be stuck or break. You need to remove the knob before the switch plate.

- Comment on [Weekly thread] How is everyone doing with their home improvements? 5 weeks ago:
I don’t have a house. Wife and I lived in a car for almost 4 months, now we have an RV.
Currently sorting rocks by size to make gravel for foundations. Need to setup some foundation blocks for shipping containers, foundation for a huge water tank, then the foundation for our house will be gravel in large sandbags (Hyperadobe) and hopefully we can make enough gravel for the driveway too.

Hope your feeling much better today
- Comment on people who drink, how long do your hangovers last? 1 month ago:
Back in college I would get really bad hangovers a few times. Here is how the absolute worst ones felt.
1 day feeling like trash.
the next day being weak and no energy but feeling so fresh and free, it’s a weird feeling.
Day after that I’m all good.
Then I can’t drink for a long time after that.

So, they are going to hurt innocent people to save the innocent people?
How exactly does this help us? Why attack infrastructure we need to survive? So many other targets I feel would have better results.
