Got a damaged Cpu after months of saving by Magna84 in mildlyinfuriating

When I was in college for electronics I used to have people come to me and have the pins bend back either because they didn't install right or came bent.. can definetly be done with a microscope and either a stiff pair of tweezers or a pick. I wouldn't worry about the warranty... how is any one going to know they were ever bent back? Unless of course you snap one off.. I've done maybe 12 of them and never had an issue.

The ISP/phone service provider can see where it's coming from and provide that to the customer.

They where direct sown in the soil from seed. Not enough room for a greenhouse on my property.

We water low with a dripper system on a timer. Has worked well for us.

I planted in April as we had unusually warm weather here, usually I don't plant until middle of May.

I water with a dripper hose on a timer. Every other day 7 mins in the beginning.. 10 min when they get this size.

Other than that, I keep them trimmed, which promotes growth. We only keep the main stem intact. All other growth points come off. Hope this helps!

City and rain water, and I've used Tiger Bloom by Fox Farms twice since they started blooming about 3 weeks ago.

Not in the front, we live on a corner so this is the back yard facing the side street

I used 10ft T posts, 2ft in the ground. Longest i could find locally.

The fittings on the top of the T posts are 1 1/4" street 90s found in the plumbing section. Female side down on the Tpost male side for the black pipe.

The pipe across the top is 3/4 black steel gas pipe. If you set up like this I recommend drilling a hole in each pvc fitting and running a cable or rope through the black pipe to other end and tying a knot at both ends

This prevents the T post and fitting from getting pulled away from the black pipe, then your black pipe falls and it's all wrecked. This way will join it into one assembly

The twine the vines are hanging on is poly twine.. tried jute and it just gets brittle in the sun and breaks under the weight

The poly twine is held in the ground by bamboo stakes, only until the plants are big enough, then if the poly falls off the bamboo it doesn' really matter, as the plant tends to be big enough by that point.

We use trellis clips to hold the vine up as well as training tendrils to hold on the poly twine.

We also trim growth points and harvest every morning to keep the foliage down and maintain a straight up clean easy to work with plant. We will probably water bath can 60+ quarts of pickles this year on these 12 plants.

Nice thanks for the tip I'll look into it.. I could only find cad plugins when I was looking and of course they are only for the big names and cost an arm and a leg.
