The last two of weeks or so I have been waken several times, most times at sun break by some seagull chicks outside. A week or so ago they where mere balls of feathers. Today however I got a chance to see al three but by the time I got the camera out only one [...]

Today I found a wax containing the main ingredients for a good moustache wax, beeswax and petroleum jelly. Unfortunately is smells like a fourteen year old girl.

If you remember my little recap from this spring. The sad little plant. Well, one of the cats actually tried to kill that plant. Not only tried he succeed, or so he thought. I found it on the floor ripped up by the roots. However, shame for those how give up. I got it back [...]

Yea, its about time to replant the small peppers. Unfortunately the pictures came out really dark as I used the camera in manual mode last time and my girlfriend didn’t check it.

This morning I got the serial driver working using windows kernel32 calls. Now it works like a charm and I will be releasing a preview of the hardware and software soon. I just thought of something, I’ve not written about this project yet. It’s a bar-tool/sound-player with a bit of a steampunk appeal. I’ll show [...]
No pictures this time. Yesterday I fixed the x-axis and today I got the y-axis working. Previously I broke the y-axis, don’t ask me how. But the drive-nut didn’t work and I had to make a new. It went fine, but my welding skills need to be upgraded. At least the axis is fully functional [...]

This time I’m back home and have some pictures. This is the project I’ve been working on the last two weeks. Actually most of the two weeks was waiting for parts. It took about four nights of soldering with all the LEDs. 64 RGB LEDs takes some time to bend and solder. During the soldering [...]
