Found it on the curb, and I liked the design. Looks like solid wood, but the joints are all coming apart and look tricky to reinforce. Would you bother?
I like the idea of using it as a small decorative shelf, thanks.

And there's a whole community for them! Not sure how to link to it though.
Back to building with stone, metal, and wood.
Nice! Direct link. The Atlantic's crossword was outpacing my mini-crossword abilities/patience.
I wish them well, I would like to see more unions in tech.
Knock knock. Who's there? Boo! ...
Maybe I'll give them a go for my next automation! Thanks for the recommendation.
I do have a hub — using HomeAssistant with AppDaemon.
Yes -- should've described that aspect. The shape of the entryway means that none of the existing switches has a good view of all the area I'd like a motion sensor to trigger on. Otherwise that would be the way to go!
According to the myth, Zeus saw and fell in love with a beautiful mortal youth by the name Ganymede. Ganymede was abducted by Zeus from Mount Ida near Troy in Phrygia. Ganymede had been tending sheep, a rustic or humble pursuit characteristic of a hero's boyhood before his privileged status is revealed, when an eagle transported the youth to Mount Olympus. The bird is sometimes described as being under the command of Zeus and sometimes as being Zeus himself.
I have Hi2 heat pumps in a 100yo house with recently improved insulation, and it was just fine last year in -15F weather. No gas backup.
One family member has been talking to installers and they keep telling her that heat pumps can't work reliably, it's extremely frustrating.
I had an easy maiden flight for my Reptile Dragon 2. But despite balancing right on the CG dots, I needed quite a lot of up elevator trim for level flight at about half throttle.
I put my rx at the tail using the extra servo opening.
Plenty of room for the FC. The PDB install is a little clunky, but the wires are stiff enough to just hold it. I put the vtx up front.
A little custom trimming to fit a RunCam orange, though after one crash in my Zohd XL I have had a lot of trouble with that camera and will probably look for something else.
Next upgrade is probably digital FPV, but I haven't decided on a system yet. Walksnail? Nice if I didn't need a separate action camera.
It took lots of repetition honing, stropping, going through setup, realizing the chip breaker was right on the edge of the blade, repeat, new error. The first picture is progress: small and crunchy, long and crinkley, long and papery.
Sharpening using Atoma 400/600/1200 diamond plates + a strop I had around. I found Wood By Wright's setup video helpful and have been enjoying Rex Kreuger's videos on sharpening and other things.
I worked so hard for these shavings, surely there's something fun to do with them.
I made a box joint jig following [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyJof__nTR4](Woodfather's video). It's a nice simple/flexible design for those of us without a dado stack.
First try was very sloppy, but once I adjusted the key width and got my clamps set up better the fit is great. The scraps I had around were bed slats off the curb, which were very cupped. But they actually turned out pretty nicely (after plenty of cleanup).
Boiled linseed oil finish.
Wrapping up its first season, I think we're supposed to get a harvest starting year three.

I have two type-k thermocouples with breakouts from Adafruit, attached to a ESP8266 (Huzzah I believe). My oven was very old and didn't come with a temperature readout or any kind of preheating status (but thankfully also no builtin WiFi). The Tasmota device reports to HomeAssistant, which stores data in InfluxDb, which I can then chart in Grafana.
Here you can see the internal temperature got to 151F, and I was surprised to see how much the oven's temperature rebounded after I took the cakes out, despite being off.
The recipe is "Chocolate Lava Cakes For Two" from NYT Cooking. It's one I make semi-regularly, pretty quick on a weeknight and delicious. I have small ramekins so the recipe makes three and they cook a little faster than the recipe's would.

I have two temperature probes (thermocouples on a Tasmota ESP8266 => HomeAssistant => Grafana). Mostly for my entertainment, but here you can see the internal temperature got to 151F, and I was surprised to see how much the oven's temperature rebounded after I took the cakes out, despite being off.

I just made a table saw box joint jig, I like the idea of using that to redo the joints on this.
And thanks for the word of caution about chipping on very hard wood, maybe I can test on a small area.
If so else fails, some nice scrap wood for making splines.
