I had a mail order gig fix my Samsung plasma power supply recently - looks like they replaced some mosfets here and there. It was Valley TV Service.

I think it sounds pretty good in fact!

I would be careful about public statements made about Russia .. and be careful what random super yachts you visit. … oh and, avoid solving coffin problems.

Somewhere they don’t want to leave?

Hate to tell you this, but it isn’t a tree house once the tree is turned into lumber.

Speaker’s Corner Reissue

We’re you using one of those newfangled planes with the electric cord attached?

Yeah; that doesn’t look good.

Flintstones indeed! I bet you would get much better the second time. I find my bandsaw is hard to use as well - depending on the blade width I have and what I am trying to do, it’s not as easy as it looks (a smaller scroll saw always seemed to work better).

What is that, the TiVO logo?

The obligatory… MOTMOTMOTMOT

Looking for some full extension, undermount drawer slides for my IKEA hack projector cabinet - seems like no one has stock and it’s really hard to determine all the “required accessories” one needs. I started looking at Salice and looks like maybe they got bought and renumbered their parts? making it extra confusing… basically looking for 13-14” for a shelf (so no face) to hold the projector… ugh.

Applied new numbers to a brand new sail! A bit tedious but turned out ok I think.

Well, their boat stuff works pretty well. Here is a repair I need to fair down and paint - waiting for the weather to warm up.

How are the drawers fronts then attached to the side and bottom of the drawer?

How to the door and drawer outlining sticks connect to the flat bits?

You could use a low profile socket head bolt / wafer head instead of a typical angled - I think FPE also has presets for a larger angle countersink (which exists for this reason) but make sure you can find the fastener before you order the panel l.

M6 should be fine for that - I would reach for a 1/4” screw on instinct so that checks out.

Do ya’ll think the Dremel (Moto) scroll saw would work okay on 1/4” thick aluminum? The manual says 20ga is recommended thickness… so I am guessing not… I am not sure what might be good for this - I need to cut a curved shape in the end of a piece of aluminum.

Congrats! 🎉

The new hiding spot

The rest of the post wasn’t as enticing?

After some lube experimentation (stock is some standard lithium grease), Billy the Kid! Ride em Cowboy!

Wow, such sad news…
