COCOON SECURITY SYSTEM WITH 500GB HARD DRIVE

ALDI – The Cocoon 4 camera system has come around again, this time with higher res cameras. I purchased one of these last year and had some issues with the cameras but warranty support is good.

GARMAN nuvi 2597LMT GPS

Bought a GARMAN nuvi 2597LMT off the older daughter as she prefers to use her iPhone for navigation. She only used it a few time so it’s like a new unit out of the box!

Speckles - back from bird vet!

I don't think I posted that she's been sick for the last few days and spent 2 nights at the The Melbourne Bird Veterinary Clinic in Scoresby. She's got a little packet of pink pills and we have to watch her closely over the next 48 hours with food and water - and hope the antibiotics does the job.

Chicken coop clean-up

Hot day so cleaned out and pressure washed the chook shed this morning - including the curtains!



That's a GMC pressure cleaner and yes - still works well!

Bandsaw 38 - Full view photo

It turned out to be quite a large beast! Using a old measuring stick I'm 6'2" and the saw is 6'9", no wonder 

I had to use a small stepladder when working on the top wheel tensioner assembly which also facilities blade tracking.


Bandsaw 37 – The old tyre

This is the lower wheel tyre that I just replaced because it has stretched quite a bit.

I mentioned in the previous post that I did not do a good job of cutting out around the valve…and you can see that in this picture. I suspect this contributed quite a bit to the tyre stretching.

Another new toy for kitties.
