Post and discuss /diy/ projects, ask questions regarding /diy/ topics and exchange ideas and techniques.
Please keep in mind:
- This is a SFW board. No fleshlights or other sex toys.
- No weapons. That goes to /k/ - Weapons. The workmanship and techniques involved in creating objects which could be used as weapons or the portion of a weapons project that involves them (e.g., forging steel for a blade, machining for gunsmithing, what epoxy can I use to fix my bow) may be discussed in /diy/, but discussing weapon-specific techniques/designs or the actual use of weapons is disallowed. Things such as fixed blade knives or axes are considered tools, things such as swords, guns or explosives are considered weapons.
- No drugs or drug paraphernalia (See Global Rule 1). If you want to discuss something that could involve such things (e.g., carving a tobacco pipe from wood) that's fine, but make sure it's /diy/ related and doesn't involve drugs or it will result in deletion/ban.

So i noticed at my job, which is a very boring manufacturing job where you just put sensors in machines for those machines to apply to parts. It requires barely any skill.
But when i get into a flow my mind focuses and i can think clearly. It's like i've discovered a non-drug treatment for ADHD.
What task can i perform at home that is physically moderately hard, and extremely repetitive, that produces some kind of useful work?
Like, i don't just want to pick up and set down paint cans. I want to produce some kind of useful work, but the real goal is just to have something to do like i do at work, so i can focus my mind.
Could be anything, could be fucking gardening. Make butter. I was even thinking about using knitting. But that seems like it would run out of utility pretty fast.

Yesterday I made my first flask from a spare fencepost, and some greensand from sifted playsand and a mix of sodium bentonite and calcium bentonite. Yard marking calcium carbonate as parting powder, worked great. Designed a little ashtray in Fusion360 and turned it into a pattern. I did a pretty bad job but I was impatient and really wanted everything ready to do this casting today. Rammed up fine, might've been a little dry, but just barely. Worked out okay though, very happy with the result after a brief cleanup.

String comment = 'In this thread we share general experiences and tips on how to make your living situation more efficient, be it in terms of saving money, reducing time waste(less maintenance/upkeep), organization or anything else that may simplify and improve your life
>on saving money
it's not really about the little things like unplugging your phone charger, focus on the main energy drains and commit to more "drastic" changes:
- unless you do some hardcore meal prepping chances are that your fridge is way too big. downsize for a smaller more efficient unit and fill it to the brim if you have to, a full fridge wastes less energy and having a smaller space forces you to be more intentional when shopping so you have to think twice about buying extraneous crap you don't actually need
- wash your clothes in cold water, most of the energy in a washing machine goes toward heating. if you have the room and weather, line dry them outside. both these things also help clothes last much longer
- avoid the range oven, use an air fryer or small convection oven for faster results and a fraction of the energy
- most of the world does just fine without AC. use weather appropriate clothing + an electric blanket in the winter and a fan in the summer
>other stuff
- you would be surprised how much clutter affects your mood. most things don't need to be on display at all times so use closed storage solutions, if you have open shelves they should be filled with storage boxes to keep all the crap out of sight. will also keep your stuff clean and dustfree
- NOTHING improves the a room like a rug. throwing a rug in your living room / kitchen / dinning room / bedroom / bathroom / office will completely change how you perceive and experience the space. just be smart with choosing the right size and style to make the most of it
Just some things of the top of my head. Are there any practices you've implemented at home that made your life better?';

In my case, i have a friend who's interested in the same dumb idea as i am
Idea is to get a castle built basically, plain and simple. To avoid sounding or looking autistic we just say manor and dont have the idea to add in fake battlements and towers, just a set of buildings that naturally wall itself off from the outside world with a courtyard in the center, to house a few families worth of people (my family, his, and possibly some other friends)
it'd have a reasonable square footage per person, and if my career and inheritence goals become fulfilled i should be able to afford as much as 700k for building the home, he might be able to afford 250k-500k depending on if he ever manages to create a successful business, and additional rent could be collected from any other roommates living with us
lets say a construction crew builds the walls and foundation out of limestone or granite bricks, and professionals do the electrical, plumbing, and heating work, as well as the roof frame, could I feasibly construct the floors (going up to 4 stories tall at the highest), install the roof tiles, and rennovate the rooms using mostly lumber and plaster? I'd have help of course, but I'd be concerned that a full time job would take away the time i need to properly construct it.';

String comment = 'I'm making a workbench from salvaged construction lumber. The legs and lap joints are already cut, but I need a strong joint for the shorter stretchers going depthwise. They are just long enough to reach between the legs, but not long enough for tenons. At first I thought of just a butt joint with really long screws, but then I came up with using large dowels instead.
According to the tests of based autist Matthias Wandel, screws sink into the wood as they fail, but dowel joints perform almost on par with mortise and tenon.
The dowels are 20mm in diameter, the stretchers they go into are 60x95mm, legs 75x90mm and the long stretchers 45x60mm.
I plan to glue and screw the laps, though I would prefer not to glue the dowels into the legs, but instead pull them together with long structural screws. This way I could "flat pack" the bench if I need to move it.
So my question is, would all the dowel, screw and counterbore holes packed into the lap joint weaken it significantly? And could I get away with no glue on the dowel joints?';

And since this was built in the 70s surely there's much better tech and resources to create something better looking that's cheaper and easier.

Some welders say it can be very practical in bizarre situations like whay if if you are hanging upside down a bridge and have to bend a rod to reach a hidden section? You cant carry a wire feeder with you, so they say.
Others say the shielding gas is worse with MIG than with stick, but that should be a moot point with that special MIG wire that comes filled with flux and can generate its own gas.
Bottom line, why is MIG easier? It seems like the same process, just with a continuous rod';

String comment = 'We have a Red Lion G308A210 HMI on a machine at work with touchscreen issues. The touchscreen will work for one minute and then become unresponsive for 10-20 minutes, then it may work for 1 or 2 minutes again and then it dies again. Power cycling it does nothing. The machine manufacturer wants 12.000€ for a replacement, with a 6.000 euro "core" refund when we return the broken one. Some questions:
Is it really the touch panel? The fact that its somewhat intermittent makes me think it may be a board issue. I don't want to fuck with it and then the manufacturer not accepting the core back if the touch panel replacement doesn't work.
The HMI uses a CompactFlash for the software. If we buy a used/refurbished one from Ebay, same exact model, will it boot the program with the old CF card in it and just work or does it require further programming?
Is replacement of the touch panel a matter of peeling the front "sticker", replacing touch panel (I think it's not fused to the LCD) and then applying the "sticker" again?
Will heat on the edges of the touch panel work temporarily?';

I've gotten most solvents I could reasonably need (barring tuolene) but nitric, hydrochloric, and sulfuric acid are all just straight up fucking banned. Best you can get without a permit is 10% of HCl/H2SO4 and 5% nitric acid. Like, it's insane. Yeah I could buy TEN LITERS and fractionally distill over a month (and probably kill myself in the process because retard fingers and earthquakes) but it would cost a stupid amount and take forever.
What companies ship to JP?? Even fucking chemsavers won't ship int, and most eurofag suppliers won't ship to JP.
What's worse is that even when they do ship, customs is basically guaranteed to fuck me over. The only places I've found domestic that sell anything at all are Matsuba on Amazon and Jikken-kun (hayashi chemical corp on monotaro won't sell to individuals). WTF do I do?

Is there a way to clog internally so that the internal water system circulates normally but it still doesn't warm the water in the tank?
