Today's progress was not awesome but got the new electric panel wired. 2/0 cable is tough to work with!!! #diy #solar

Solar array junction box is packed a little tight. 23 10ga conductors. Used 1000 feet each of red and black wire with only 20 feet of black left over. I really didn't think I would have enough but it just barely made it. #diy #pv #solar #homestead

Today's DIY project, wrap the soffits in metal. No more carpenter bees, no more wasps , no more freeloading sqirrels. #diy #gsd

Was checking out CasaOS https://casaos.zimaspace.com/, seems pretty well put together and visually pleasing dashboard and UI but it's missing a few apps I would want like mumble and gotify. There is an option to side load them. While I was checking it out, I also found some cool apps I never heard of like VocaChat. I might install it on an SBC to see how it behaves.

Finally got the rest of the parts to install a backhoe quick-attach kit making bucket swaps a breeze. Now it's super easy to swap from digging to trenching bucket.

Hope your today was great. Ours was, dry enough to finally mow. Finishing with homemade Key Lime Moonshine ice cream topped with crushed pretzel chunks. Can something be too good!

I really want to like this because it stores the last three measurements, but the base is so small it's hard to rest it on a flat surface.

The old #chicken shack didn't do too well over the crazy winter. There was a plan to salvage it but now I don't feel guilty taking it down. #diy #gsd #farmstead #homestead

My DIY MoOde Audio Player

Powered by a Raspberry PI Zero W is having a hard time lately. It can't handle the ever growing music collection. What would you do for your selfhosted music player?

The camp house finally has a real kitchen! Feels great to finally have the time to upgrade the temporary makeshift kitchen which we've used for about 20 years. The old counter was a reclaimed luan door 🤣. Here's a before and after photo. #diy #gsd #woodworking

PalmTree 🌴 — Mon, 03 Mar 2025 01:16:22 GMT

We're a day short of our goal to make a 3 day kitchen. Delayed due to lack of plumbing supplies and the hardware store is closed on Sunday. Hopefully they have the drain parts we need tomorrow. Here is our Friday to Sunday progress pics. The tiles have also been grouted since we took the pictures. I know the tiles layout is weird but they are leftovers from a different project. #diy #gsd #kitchen

Today's DIY Project!

PalmTree 🌴 — Tue, 18 Feb 2025 19:38:47 GMT

Today's DIY Project!
Added a shelf on the kitchen table side of the new island. Nice little place to put all those annoying table items. Original plan was to use a 1x4 for the top (3-1/2"), but I didn't have any nice short pieces so ended up using a 1x6 (5-1/2") which gives a little extra room accommodating some of the bigger table items like a Dewalt cordless screwdriver or tape measure 🤣 #gsd #diy

If your using LibreOffice Calc and you want to get the live ⚡ BTC price to run some calculations, for example ROI or whatever, don't try using the WEBSERVICE function as it expects an XML reply which most API's don't give. API's usually respond with JSON format which is not supported in LibreOffice. Fear not, get this extension https://github.com/DmytroBazunov/LibreOfficeGetRestPlugin/wiki/How-to-install-plugin and in the cell where you want the BTC price, add the following (using Coinbase for this example, if you use some other API, adjustments will have to be made)

=PARSEJSON(GET("https://api.coinbase.com/v2/prices/btc-usd/buy"),"data.amount")

When you recalc sheet, it will automatically fetch the latest price.
