Workshop ceiling fan - Part 1

I purchased this Arlec 120cm 4 Blade White Ceiling Fan (CSF122W) for the workshop. Cost was $44 so happy with that!

Bathroom basin is blocked

Nearly forgot to have a look at this today!
Water is very slow to drain out of the basin.

Three pipes service the bathroom, can you guess which one was blocked?
With ET guarding the basin and the garden hose (connector removed) shoved in all the way to the end of the pipe I went and turned the back tap fully on.

Motion Sensor Night Light and Torch

Heads up - Bunnings selling these and it's the first time I've seen a twin version of this and $10 is a bloody good price.

Al's backyard chooks update

Time to change the bed linen, particularly important during the summer months. Also included is a little walk-through.

We only have two old girls left and both are 10 plus - Misty (Wyandotte) and Speckles (Pekin). I use kitty litter boxes and for each empty out most of the hay and with reading glasses on scan for mites - the buggers are tiny.

Al's 8" band saw - what's that noise ???



This is my 8" band saw that I made in 2017.

Al's Workshop - Batman light revisited


Houston...we have a problem.
Finishing off some details and when I turned on the lights most of the Blue was missing - bugger!

Tested again this morning to confirm and the RGB LED strip is indeed faulty, the controller itself is OK.
What happened ???...I don't know but it's fortunate I ordered two sets of lights. I'll have a look to see if I can repair the faulty strip at a later date.

Speckles and Misty enjoying cool change


Speckles and Misty camped in the chook run enjoying the cool change. Interesting that thunder and lightning don't bother them all that much, the dogs are on our laps :-)



Another new toy for kitties.
