The silicone order’s now arrived, a day late. Will be finishing up that process shortly.<\/p>\n
I need to get to the hackspace to double-check a thread type; it’s either UNF or whitworth. Then I can order it. It’s for the high-vacuum station that’ll operate as an optical coater and outer-space environmental test chamber for the open-source space program.<\/p>\n
Camera is now “fixed” in that I managed to cut the cheap adaptor ring off without breaking it.<\/p>\n
Need to open up the Myvu video goggles. There should be a current-set resistor somewhere on the control board that I can replace to make it run just one display, and make it into a decent starters monocular display for the Raspberry Pi based wearble computer system. Then coding, typing and designing as I go will be doable.<\/p>\n
Workshop’s being rearranged since my brother moved out. A new cabinet’s down there (big metal thing and reason why my back hurts so much now), so I’m seperating stuff up properly into tools, consumables and materials (including moulds).<\/p>\n
Going to put the camera and phone on charge and see if I can’t also harvest the ornemental plums today too, on camera.<\/p>\n
Some hair-dye would be good too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
