I'm in college, design and production class, and for our exams project we'll be making a machine that'll be "mass" producing a part of a product. Something like a can crusher would be a good example, although that'd be too simple and boring to do.
What would some ideas for the product to mass produce be?
(Pic attached is most recent project, makes waffles)
>>958965
make a machine that makes itself
>>958967
I like this idea, but that would probably be too much to make in the 8 weeks we have to make this.
We only get 2 weeks to make the actual product.

make a machine that makes origami
I wanna build a clubhouse in the woods for me and my neo nazi buddies to have club meetings in. Can you guys give me some ideas?
>>958378
Put a shipping container 10 ft below sea level.
Its perfect.
>>958382
Yeah make sure you and your Nazi friends get into it before the crane let's go
Build a castle
Let's say I was interested in building a DIY meshnet system. What are some resources for me to get started?
>>958230
Second pic.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention: I have actual money, I have a job.
Other interested parties for a start.
It's friday night an I'm sitting at home organising my small diameter screws, nuts and bolts. Gonna rebuild the quadcopter and everything was a mess. How is your weekend coming along?

Go get laid before you get regret. You can do your copter after you've done the walk of shame.

I see a chance to make good money here but everything I searched on google requires some sort of payment. I had my phone unlocked by some Indian guy not long ago and he charged me 20 bucks all he did was open 2 applications and type some stuff in and in 20 minutes he unlocked my phone. Any advice? Thanks
>>963929
Op here. Just wanna mention that im asking for any resources or info that can help me unlock phones. I want to sell this kind of unlocking service to make quick $
Whenever I have a problem with my phone I just leave it overnight on a bowl of rice... The Chinese will come and fix it and next morning it works! ....Now seriously making money out of free advice is not cool...make a real effort and learn about phones/technology if that interests you
>>963932
Im sorta making a real effort though. I cant learn without being taught from someone who knows and having to go and ask on specialized forums is more of an effort than googling it at least but I get what your saying
how do I fix it?
Buying a new one
>>963903
You don't. Panel is fucked. The panel is like 90% of the price of the monitor.
Open it up and see, OP. You've got nothing to lose anyways
Finally got around to building a keezer, a chest freezer style kegerator.
I'm only waiting on longer shanks to be able to install the first two taps.
On tap: very dry belgian blonde and a saison
Fermenting: Experimental simcoe pale and a cascade pale.

Quality comment.
What are you brewing?

>to be quite honest with you faggot
Is my interpretation correct?
So all my switches are wired like this except like 4 in my house. Why would only 4 random switches have a neutral in the box? The wiring matches the house original in all.
Is theres an easy way to get a neutral to these switch boxes, or am I going to be running more wire?
>>963587
Built in late 60s, trying to get some Z wave switches installed. I can do the wiring myself if needed, but cannot figure out the whole 'neutral in half the switches' thing. Pic related, 120v from breaker, other end goes to light.
Switch phase and neutral in the junction box for that particular switch?
No idea why they'd be switched though. Maybe they're actually all connected randomly and it's just a coincidence?
I'm jealous though. As bad as american wiring is, I have to do with horribly shitty soviet wiring... White aluminum wiring, literally no markings and no ground.
Ask an electrician from the power company for and estimate on how much it'd cost to get the ground to at least the washing machine.
>don't bother with it, too much effort
>>963594
The reason some of your boxes look like that (2 wire romex, improperly using the white wire as hot instead of neutral) is because the switch was further from the source of electricity and your electrician was cheap/lazy. So they only ran the hot to the switch.
In the other cases the switch was between the light and the source of electricity. Since it was on the way anyhow they just ran all the wires through the box.
What color paint is this?
Another picture with less light
I know it's white but what kind of white?
>>963419
Looks like magnolia
I have 3 monitors and they all have capacitive touch buttons to turn them on. I want to make a master button that touches all three of them at the same time. I tried just taking a wire and taping it ot the button and touching it but that did not work. How do I trick it? I dont want to take apart the monitors because they were expensive and I am a noob.
the only way you're going to do this is by taking apart the monitors. The two terminals on your master switch need to connect to each of the two terminals where the individual ON buttons are.

go to a butchers and get some pig skin
get a long piece of wood to reach all buttons, hinge it to your desk and attach pig skin where the buttons are
I heard french fries work on capacitive touchscreens and sensors.
Guys I have minor scratches on my PS2 disc and /v/'s being really fucking useless, it didn't bothered me at first but I can't seem to finish the game, would brasso work? Pic unrelated my scratches are mostly like tiny dots
no idea about brasso, but I've heard toothpaste works though I've never tried it myself.
I would probably have tried it at some point if I didn't still have my crank cd doctor, works with water and friction, so I'd suggest before rubbing brasso or toothpaste all over your disks to just try buffing it out with water and a clean cloth
>>963016
you need to polish the disk, look for "Aleratec - DVD/CD Disc Repair Plus System" or something like that, also that will make the disk weak, also google how to launch backup games from usb stick, so you can use a backup instead of the actual disk

>how to launch backup games from usb stick, so you can use a backup instead of the actual disk
Isn't that for modded PS2?
