Al's Workshop update

Arrived this afternoon 2 x RF controllers with remotes. This was one of those 'nifty moments' where I came up with the idea to use left over materials - in this case LED strips.

Since the start of COVID how many bats have I done...dunno lost count. Each bat consumes 1.5M so for the 2M light kits that's 0.5 or for 3M light kits 1.5M - leftovers.

The RGB kits range in price from around $12 - $16 and these RF controller kits were about $6 so by using the leftover strips I can save 6 - 10 bucks per bat light. When you working with a dollar here and a dollar there - that's quite a saving!

Google adverts begone

Got rid of the bloody thing in particular at the top of news articles.

Edit the hosts file in Windows/Sstem32/drivers/etc

Add two 127.0.0.1 loopback entries which basically sends those bloody host names back to the same machine.

 

 

 

 

 

Serengeti Giraffe SG01 - part 3

This morning although the sun is out it's bloody cold (again) in the workshop but never mind heat up the glue gun to start doing the giraffe lighting.

Doing a lighting test before we tidy up the wiring.

Serengeti Giraffe SG01 - part 2

Made another frame that sits on top of the internal frame that will simply house the battery box. I'm using up the COVID toilet paper wherever I can so we can get back to our preferred brand but wait...what was the brand we used ???
