What have you made lately?

[JackTheTripper]

I built a costume for Erin. I also built a hanging garden and it looks like I am building a new mailbox cause the guy that backed into it didn't like how it turned out the first time so he hit it again.

Mac users I have question. These photos show up vertical on my Mac but when I post they come up horizontal, why?

Umm, What have I made lately? I made my own Motorhome/Motorcycle shop.

Started with a Ford flatbed truck with Power lift gate (this, lift the ZX-10 up to roll in the shop part).

Primitive living quarters has a bed over the cab, Flat screen TV, Wood stove, Microwave and small fridge. House Scaled Solar panels on the roof and South wall (hinged at top and bracketed out like an awning on wall).

Badass trackday truck?

c'mon lefty, dubs specifically said "not what yuou pooped"

btw, pooping out white cats is amazing? how do you keep them white? have to wash them after?

all the same, you should probably see a doctor.

Well, it was a black kitten when Ant put it there...guess it turned albino after so long.



As for me, made some awesome salsa with my brother for the 49ers game.

Pineapple
Mango
Red onion
Cilantro
Sea Salt
Caribbean Jerk sauce

Light on the sauce and salt, mix the other stuff till, as my brother puts it, "even amounts of colors are showing". :thumbup

I built a patio, made a crochet dog sweater, made the worlds best yeast waffles (my opinion) and am creating a company's first real CMS. What can I say, these hands were made of magic.

Planning on making a nice and strong work bench for my garage.

being a machinist starts with learning how to use a file. i say you did pretty good

It sound like you had my shop teacher, Mr. Blanchard. Filing builds character.

Badass trackday truck?

:thumbup It could be...But, I wouldn't use anything that big, for that...

I live in it, in the woods In the Sierra foothills, as a Hermit/Recluse/Man cave.

It has just what I want, nothing more, nothing less. :ride

Built a tall bar table for the lady with wine rack/glass holder & shelf. Also used a big piece of Jadeite I found down in Big Sur to weight the base!

Also redid the drywall in the garage and moved an outlet to above bench height for easier access & hung a shelf.

Lastly used our mill/lathe to build a threaded swivel stud mount I could epoxy into the .22 plinker so I could mount a sling & bipod securely and not worry about it wiggling around in the synthetic stock.

I've been playing with Arduino again. Mostly experimenting with various executions leading towards a bigger project, but in the meantime I've made a programmable automated shutter release, and the beginnings of a remote flash trigger - the latter needs an optoisolator to protect the circuits from the voltage in the flash though.

I'm no good at making things but I did put together a pretty sweet fish tank at work.

Bunch of busy people on the barfs. This is pretty rad. It's good to know makers.

Those knives are beautiful.

I'm sandbagging here, but this kinda falls under the "what I built lately:"

Our new house has a bar. The bar, unfortunately, did not have any good place for storing bottles. Time to build a shelf.
