Generator / RV 50ft 6/3 power cable home made
Posted by Diuternity under Unintentional DriftingNo Comments
Made 50ft 6/3 cable for my generator. Cheaper to make your own cables than vs buying a set. Worked out great for me and I’m glad I have a set that’s 50ft for those long runs!
$137.50 for 50ft
$15.02 Camco 55255 50 AMP PowerGrip Replacement Plug
$5.95 Leviton 279 50 Amp
=$158.47 vs $189 NU-CORD 94561E

I’m finally home and using the Green Star G2-2000 Juicer
Posted by Diuternity under Unintentional DriftingNo Comments
This time, for the whole family. Getting the whole family on track and in better health than when I left them 😉 I use to juice a lot when I had my own place but school took over and I moved in with others and put my most valuable machine away for a period of time. Now it’s out of hibernation and ready to rock!

A box fan can be had for around $300 – I can’t justify spending that kind of money on a circulation fan – so I made one from scraps and a circulating fan we found in the attic! This thing pushes some serious CFM!
Just a simple box I threw together along with chicken wire and some electrical work. This cost me roughly $50 to make because I bought the wheel kit and the extension cord.
In this photo, you see the on/off switch? Well a few months later, I added an extra outlet to plug my drill in or my charger etc. It was a convenience factor for when I’m working near the table saw and I need to plug in my jig saw or something..

I’m helping install an I-Beam that is 30ft in length. No one has ever installed one before and so I naturally took the job onto myself and installed it alone. The beam roughly weights 2000lbs. It wasn’t hard to install – the only time consuming part of the ordeal is and was in the PREP work.
I had to make support pillars that would hold the beam to be winched up slowly – 2ft at a time. Here are some photos of my weekend 😉
It’s up and sitting on two 6×6 pressure treated beams. It was fun! The house looks incredibly more spacious after the beam was installed!
Pulling the beam through and setting it on the wall was also tricky but with a winch, you can move mountains!

New Portable Colloidal Silver Generator
Posted by Diuternity under Unintentional DriftingComments Off on New Portable Colloidal Silver Generator
I’m making a new portable colloidal silver generator and so far so good. Using a 1 gang electrical box and stuffing all the electronics inside. I got a cigar box magnetic stirrer off of eBay for $50. The reason I’m making this portable generator is because it will be powered by the ubiquitous micro-USB phone charger that everyone seems to have around the house. Inside I’m boosting 5v to 30v w/ a 1k ohm resistor to run the generator at 30mA. Then I’m stepping down the voltage to 12v for the magnetic stirrer. Seems to be working nicely. The power supply must be 2A max to have enough power to power the stirrer.

Did anyone dump cooking oil down the drain?

Don’t you hate it when the sink is clogged? I specifically asked the ladies of the house if they had ever dumped oil down the drain – yeah yeah… Shouldn’t even ask because there won’t be an honest ănswer. I tried the conventional way of unclogging it – snake – didn’t work out so well. I just dog it up and ran new piping like a BOSS
