In the middle of a project / multiple projects I look disorganized. But I guarantee I can find X in the pile before I remember where I left my cell phone lol

For me it's usually I don't need it until I need to Google something for the project lol
"Found the fitting, measured it in two minutes, 20 minutes to find the phone then remeasure because I forgot what I needed to buy"

Other than the forum I try to avoid my phone.

Pretty much. I think I have a game installed somewhere that I downloaded to try before letting the kiddo and never deleted. I think I have Minecraft too, but it was so we could install mods to use on his Switch that aren't technically available on the Switch lol Couldn't make it work using Ubuntu so I downloaded the app on my phone and it worked that way lol

A don't use games and apps. I value my privacy way more then games or apps entertain me.
There is a hand full of people I talk to, and this forum. Otherwise I'd ditch mine 🙂

How it started
PXL_20241113_183549662.jpg PXL_20241113_183539228.jpg

After making a few cuts, adjusting with shims (fancy for putting extra gaskets on for downward adjustment lol) I have it low enough to skim before draining. Once installed I might need to change some fittings for a little more clearance. A centimeter is close, but I'd rather be closer to 2cm/ maybe 3/4 to an in or so. But I'll find that out when the pump is flowing, filter full etc. also during tuning the sounds. Different things effect the final out flow. Be it splashing over rocks, falling, the rate of each thing etc...

I want that top at 11 mm. But I can't lower the coupling anymore without it being above the funnel. I can swap out the lower screw in fitting though.

And you said it's pine needles your trying filter for?
I can see how that will work. Pretty cool 😎 👌 👍

Yeah, especially in the fall when the wind hits. Sometimes I have to clear the drains twice a day. Only takes a few with the current setup.

More waste than part. Would have been even worse with the kiddos original request lol The back circle was blue and all the blue bits had white highlights. Went from 3hr 45 for this (normally 45 minutes one color) to almost 9 hrs lol

Yeah, no. 2 colors and we dial down the blue a bit.

Edit: I knew it was heavy waste going in. But eh, I need bio balls for the pond filter lol Plus the machine needed an exercise after the black overheated on a large %100 infill part and plugged up the feed head. So I gave it a small challenge.

either she really likes me, or shes hungry
I can’t wait to see Dr.Wilson be a big dragon but I try to cherish hard the moments while he still fits in my hand 🦎
It’s been a month since I’ve joined bd.org! It feels like it’s been longer than that, but I’m glad I’m here and apart of this lovely community!
I can feel her staring into my soul demanding food
She was having a staring contest with a mealworm. I guess I never taught her to not play with her food, lol.
