Damn, how did we ever survive without weather forecasts? On the farm we just had a barometer. Other than that, you stuck your head outside and looked at what was happening.

I've been working out of state for the last few years. I hope to be back permanently in the next few weeks. Just as a fact note: I am 68 years old, overweight, and diabetic. I just had two knees replaced. Both my wife and I had Covid the first week in Feb. I ran a 103 for two days and...

I grew up in Stanton/Garden City. I hung out in Big Bend or up at Alpine.

I am a blue tape and cardboard mockup guy. A tip: find a local business that specializes in building shipping containers and packing for industries. They will have very large single sheets of cardboard that you can cut and tape to build a proto before spending big bucks on materials and...

use the key words cable glands and do a google/amazon search. We use them on big test systems exposed to wash downs and oil all the time.

That goes without saying. Always get things to temp before packing the cooler.

Everybody says that, and it may be true for some people, but in my case, I have lived on less than 25 grams of carbs for years. Even with exercise, the lowest I have been able to get my A1C without meds (pills and injections) is 7.5. The only way to get it lower is to completely fast. I did...

It was 37 this morning and snowing on the way to work.

Did you guys get washed out with the rain? I got off of work a 8pm and couldn't see , driving from Park City to Heber City.

I freeze a 12 pack of water and put it in my cooler. That way I always have cold water and it does not make a mess as it melts. I very rarely put ice directly in my cooler.

WARNING!!! Technical crap ahead All ferrite chokes are not the same. The material and shape determines the frequency range. Some chokes are for very high frequency or very low frequency. As it turns out, the noise caused by the choppers is broad band. In other words it ranges from low to...

I'm going to be stuck at work with an 18 hour day due to an emergency.

Put a .001uf, .01uf, .1 uf, and 1.0uf ceramic caps as close to the lights as possible. Follow up with a ferrite before the wire back to the battery. The reason for the 4 sizes in parallel is that the smaller caps have a higher frequency response. Each size basically will help across the whole...

Being a fabricator and engineer, I love your blue tape mockup. Sure helps to visualize it.

Depending on what kind of carrier you use outdoors get mosquito netting for it. Just watch the temperature.

I'm not going to go out and buy all the meat without a headcount. I am fine buying it but not fine with wasting effort and money.

No head count, no BBQ.

I could use a head count so I know how much meat to get.

Sounds like a good idea to me.
