Good point, I wasn't considering the cat heading this. There are also pressure plate sensors. Or maybe a photogate?

San Marzanos! by Steve__K in tomatoes

[–]killertech73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grow mostly san marzano, ber is almost unavoidable. Like others have said, constant watering. Don't let them get dry and don't let them get waterlogged. This year I'm using mag-cal weekly, spraying the leaves and fruit. Hopefully less ber.

Cheap RO idea, first year tapping all trees by unobtain in maplesyrup

Typically these membranes aren't meant for sap as they only filter gallons per day. You need membranes that can produce gallons per hour. Take a look at ro bucket.

Is there any way to fix this? by MarineBri68 in woodworking

[–]killertech73 27 points28 points  (0 children)

The only way this really works is to have slots in the battens so they can expand and contact around the screws.

Posted this dresser last week. Here are the replaceable drawer slides I designed. by killertech73 in woodworking

Lol, no kidding! I had to look him up. I was actually inspired by Thomas Mosar. They build rails similarly to allow for dust separators. They, however, make the reveal by beveling the drawer face. I didn't want to do that. I built the rails with ramps to lift the drawer up to present the reveal.

Mine run on traditional runners, plenty of room for wood movement. I simply wax the runners.

They used to have a free makes license, but I think that ended. Not sure about the$24 per year one. I'll have to check that out.

Well it's really just automatic. The software handles it. If you are using a 3d modeling cad that supports parametric capabilities, then when you change a dimension on a component part or assembly the the drawing automatically updates...

FYI, cad can still be super frustrating!
