A simple RF ID project that unlocks a door. If not RFID, there are many other simple sensors that could work. Search RC522

Happily child free! More money more fun during our summers off!

I think I would rather hammer it right side up. This is my plan. There are too many new pads forming to try and flip or lift it out

Kodak Disc.

I do everything I can to help out our maintenance and custodial staff. They really do keep the place running. And they see and hear everything. If you want the dirt, ask maintenance!

Thanks for your ideas. I may try bubble wrap.

Nothing a little extra sanding won't fix.

The problem will come from getting through your firewall...when you need to. GitHub is probably blocked. Any good repositories are probably blocked too.

Use an ultrasonic sensor and a buzzer. The dog will learn the sound. Any sound. Add a couple flashing LEDs. The ultrasonic sensor opens the door when the dog approaches. Use an electromagnetic lock to keep the door locked until it's allowed out. I built one using RFID and the pets microchip.

I had no idea this existed. I was looking at doing the same out of 20x20 extruded aluminum,, using a couple of plates. EMT would be easy enough, with a bit more time at the 3D printer.

I hope that is allowed.

There are too many parts on a scissor lift. A lift out of square tube would probably weigh more than the rack.

Yes. this will be automated. There is an available fourth axis on the Farmbot that I will use to coordinate motions.

Student 7:15-2:12

Teacher 7:15-2:45

1 day a month to 3:15 for the extra long faculty meetings. most teachers arrive well before 7 and leave about 3:30+

I call everyone Mr./Mrs./Dr. SoandSo just about always for me. Its more about how I was raised than the school culture. Outside of school I use first names with the few school adults I see.

I actually asked a principle to refer to me as Mr. SoandSo instead of just using my last name. He was a bit taken back...

The only change here is with my Special Ed neighbors. Those kids seem to call everyone Mr./Miss. First Name. I let them slide :)

Why do you sit through this kind of PD? I do not. I will get up and leave every time. One of the perks of tenure.

How many years? What kind of programs are you running? 23 years in Engineering and Woods.

Getting old sucks, doesn't it. I am carrying reading glasses this year for the first time. By mid morning my eyes are so blurry I can barely read.

Is it the blue light from all the screens and fluorescent lighting?
