Mausrad scrollt nicht mehr so richtig? Dann haben sich vermutlich darin Härchen verfangen. Das Logitech Modell M100 liess sich leicht öffnen, das Rad kann dann ganz zerlegt und gereinigt werden. Jetzt scrollt sie wieder die Mastodon timeline rauf und runter!

What a cool #DIY project for a #cat feeder:
a Secret Painting Door

Good lord, I did a DIY thing and it just worked! Nothing extra broke, no tiles fell off the wall, no extra items had to be hastily purchased. This timeline is definitely suspect.
Also, I now own a pair of vice-grip pliers, and I'm casting my eye around the house for other things that might need to be gripped very tightly.

Zusammengebaut sind sie schonmal: Die Victron Lynx Komponenten und der Shunt sitzen bombenfest. 💪
Nun stellt sich die große Frage vor der Montage: Wo ist der beste Platz an der Wand? 🤔

Testing batteries with a multimeter. I learned one thing after half an hour of no results: The multimeter is broken.

Relativ viel Sorgfalt floss in den Bau der Sägeschablone. Dafür habe ich gerade mit der Tauchsäge locker aus der Hüfte in keinen 15min mal eben zwanzig Regalböden gesägt. Es wird ein „leichtgewichtiges“ CD-Regal, den Prototypen habe ich euch vor ein paar Wochen schon gezeigt. Morgen bohren und schleifen. #diy

Ich habe hier ein Hummus aus fermentierten Kichererbsen!

The bedroom is long finished and summer is fast approaching so spring is the time to DIY the campervan.
Early last summer the guy booked to do the professional job of that gave himself a nervous system crisis by only drinking distilled water in a misguided heath-kick. On the week he was booked to do it for me.
So that failed. He left me with a boot-kit, which barely served the purpose and then before I could fix it much I fractured my wrist. Great.
Nothing in the way now so it's the DIY Microcamper Easter Special!
Over the last few days I have cut the boot-kit to enable it to open one leg at a time. Single bed or double bed. Painted it, coated the exposed surface with a vinyl blue wood-effect wallpaper.
Added a door into the back/inside to allow access from inside the van.
Seems pretty nice inside my flat here, but will of course be much more cramped and much lower roof when it's inside the van.

For a series of days, I’ve been tackling the back patio. Pressure washed all the moss off, pulled so many weeds from in between the stones, and flossed out the dirt in the gaps with a putty knife. Last night I put down polymeric sand and soaked it in.
Very happy with the results.

PV-Gebastel ist doch etwas anstrengender als Lego. 🧱🥵
Die Wechselrichter hängen und die jeweils fast 200 kg schweren Akkus stehen endlich am richtigen Fleck. Die ganze Familie braucht jetzt definitiv einen neuen Rücken... 🩹😂
Aber der härteste Teil ist geschafft und es geht jetzt zügig voran! Das Kraftwerk nimmt Form an. ⚡💪

Na gut, heute keine zweite Schicht mehr. Erst über Nacht aushärten lassen. Steige ich halt morgen nochmal auf die Leiter 😀 #diy #fassadenwartung

Schaltpläne sind fertig und eben habe ich auch noch die benötigten Fischer-Dübel für den Porenbeton geholt. 🛠️📋
Möge die Bastelstunde mit den Victron-Komponenten beginnen! Ganz ehrlich: Das blaue Spielzeug für Erwachsene fühlt sich im ersten Moment fast wie Fischertechnik von früher an... nur dass am Ende hoffentlich die Sonne den Strom liefert und nicht der 9V-Block. 😎⚡

Zweieinhalb Meter klingt nicht besonders viel, aber wenn man auf der obersten Staffeleistufe steht und dann nochmal einsneunzig Körpergröße dazu kommt, ist das gefühlt ganz schön hoch. #hiergeradeso #diy

The things I’ll do for this cat…

Yep, as expected, out of wallpaper before even attempted the doors at all. Gonna be next weekend before I can do much more really.
It is.... Not great. Wallpapering curved surfaces is tricky and I have no idea what I'm doing.
Might re-try some large chunks of what is done once there's spare to re-try with.
Will need cualk on all the joins which will be as time-consuming as the self-adhesive wallpaper in the first place.
Most of the remaining things could use the walls being finished first ideally. Maybe I could do the carpet tomorrow. If I accept the black instead of the red.
Might be better to have things dark in there so you can't see so well how terrible much of the wallpaper is.

From the archives, here's a drip-irrigation device I made for spot watering at the allotment. Because watering is just a drip or a trickle (you choose), it goes fully into the soil rather than running off to the side. As a bonus, fewer weeds around the plant because they never get water. #garden #gardening #water #artichoke #allotment #wine #bottle #diy

The van's metalwork is exposed in the back and it is far from actually cosy in there so the job today has been to cover the entire insides in a foam insulation.
Seems to have gone okay. I certainly have lots of spare left over, only used about half.
Even had time to start on the covering of the wood and insulation with the vinyl blue wood-effect wallpaper.
Hopefully more of that wallpapering can be done tomorrow though I fear I will run out because I seem to have ordered three mini-rolls of extra rather than three large rolls like I wanted. 🤞 Probably end up having to leave some till next weekend when I run out.
The Carpet has arrived the wrong color too. Boo. Wonder if I'll just accept the black or try and handle the returns process to get the red I wanted.

With the wood stained, and then varnished, and then varnished and then varnished and then varnished and then legs attached and the top varnished and then varnished and then varnished it seems the table is ready.
The two main configurations are the S-shape or the C shape, one maybe better for a meal one for a card game or something. Maybe a DM seat there. Not yet with the keyboard embedded in the arms.
Still need to get some chairs.
