Average joe with forest property and ancient farm equipment here. Need a winch to pull logs uphill and through ditches. Eventually i would also like to be able to pull down dead trees and add a log arch to my trailer. picrel is the only reasonable winch you can get in my part of the free world. any more fancy than that and you're in unobtainium-territory as a hobbyist. only found two guys on the tubes reviewing this winch and they seem to shill it hard, but at that price point it's cheap enough to risk it. dimension-wise the biggest logs will have a max. length of 3 meters / 10 feet and max diameter of 70 cm / 27.5 inch. so well within the pulling capacity. not sure yet if it makes sense to build a log arch for my trailer as it has a higher center of gravity with 82 cm / 32 inch height. main goal really is not to be forced to split the wood by hand on site and walk uphill a million times. what do you guys think? you got pics of your setup?
>>2956999wake boarding towing rigs might be a good avenue for research, bunch of extreme sports teenagers raiding the local dump will have creative ideas.
>>2953359Pulling down dead trees or live ones from a distance is safe and easy without a winch except as a drum for wire storage because a winch cannot spool fast enough to pull a tree down suffcient distance to reliably guide it. I cut a ~50ft section of wire rope from one of my truck winches (they're rarely used at full length anyway) and used two cable clamps at each end to make loops for grab hooks. One end gets chained to the tree, the other loop gets shackled to sufficient winch cable that my truck is too far away for the tree to hit under any condition.I slightly preload the tree if it's live, cut to holding wood from the back, then drive off snapping the holding wood and pulling the tree until about a 45 degree angle after which it goes where I aimed it. It doesn't take much at all.I learned this after Hurricane Hugo working with my bro dropping damaged trees. He had a Dodge M37 with a PTO winch which made it even easier.
how beefed up does a winch mount need to be?
>>2953359I always pull down the trees I felling, and I heat my home with wood. It's absolutely the safest way. Cut it so that it is close and then winch it down. Previously I used a hand which but now that I have a grabber or claw or what the fuck it's called in English on my 23 ton excavator I just saw the trees slightly and the push them down. Man that is sooooo satisfying.

I want to repair this issue on a car that is in my family, the problem is that the rear driver's side wheel wears unevenly with the rest of the tires. I can do the repair myself, but I have no idea what part I am supposed to replace, my guess is the whole strut assemlby, but not 100% sure.TLDR; car had accident some odd years ago, and I am trying to fix for family without getting bent over by a mechanic to tell me which part I have to replace. pic greatly relatedgreen box is rough area where said accident happenedred lines are visual cues to show wheel is off negative camber on rear tire compared to front alignmentorange is where tire wears out

>>2959908jack the ass up and pull both back tires and compare look for bent shit measure the suspension point to point on both sides to check it something is tweaked order shit off rockauto with a discount codekeep you eyes open for a deal on a different less wrecked shitbox to buy
>>2959909Its a 2006 Elantra>>2959915Thanks will jack it up tomorrow and take measurements as well as look at that site to see if its cheaper than a local pick and pullI asked GPT earlier with same pic and suggested the rear control arms (upper *suggested issue*, lower, trailing), so I will try and compare with other side as well
>>2959937As the other anon said check for.bent stuff and compare to other side. Also while jacked up grab the top and bottom of the tire and try to move it in and out and then do the same side to side to see if there are any loose/clapped out joints.
Background (can skip): My door has developed an issue on rubbing against the frame, which is especially becoming problematic as the force required to open it is starting to pop the handle out of its socket. I recently discovered what typically creates this fault is misaligned hinges creating a larger gap at the top of the door frame (between the hinges) compared to the bottom, and upon examing this door, that seemed to be the case. So I have to remove the hinge and then realign the hinges, however:Problem: I can't for the life of me get this pin out the hinge. I initially tried to tap it out using a punch and hammer from the bottom up, however after closer inspection, and getting nowhere, it seems like the pin may have been inserted upside-down, as the bottom of the pin appears to be wider than the top. I then tried tapping it out the other way, but also nothing. I've also tried spraying it down with half a bottle of WD-40 to try loosen things up, as well as using pliers; also nothing.Any ideas? Will I just have the take the hinges off completely and get it out that way?
Open the door, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur

I can't have a smoker in the apartment I'm in, but I badly want a smoker. I am just enough of a redneck to know as long as your heat isn't that high you can make a smoker out of litterly anything that slows the smoke down from just blowing away. Now the issue with all my designs is they still roll enough smoke to get the FD called on me. I need to figure out a way to keep good air flow but reduce smoke coming out of the smoker.Also it needs to be small. Like Webber kettle grill sized.I am thinking a wet sponge or even wet wash clothes over a chimney might be the key.Let me know what you all are thinking.
>>2956075Why not just buy a GE indoor smokerThey aren't that expensive compared to the fine you'll get from the fire dept when your neighbors call them on you
>>2957285Actually not a bad idea. I'll check.>>2957101Cold smoke is all I do, it's not hard but I like how you think. The issue is cold smoke doesn't really rise so much interference in the smoke path can smother it. Really that is the crux of the issue. If I was hot smoking I could do this no problem .
>>2956093Hold on, I think you're on to something.As long as OP has a decent exhaust fan above his stove/oven this could totally work.Don't put the chips on the heating element. Get one of those wood chip boxes for propane grills. Put bottom rack on lowest setting, sit chip box above heating element and preheat the oven to a high enough temperature to get the chips smoking.Then get your meat in there on the top rack above the chip box and reduce the oven temp.Meat gets smoked in the oven, smoke goes out the exhaust fan to the roof. No-one's the wiser.
Get one that you can mount outside your window.

Has anyone successfully made a doppler radar for measuring bullet speeds using hb100?
>>2957765No, but I made a light sensor for measuring airgun bullet speeds that attaches to the barrel. 2 pairs of 2 IR LEDs at fixed distance, microcontroller on interrupts measures timing, calculates speed.
OP here. that's quite simple but not challenging enough people have used PC sound card for that too, just an op amp, few IR leds and two photodiodes
>>2957765You need to calculate the frequency range for the proposed bullet speeds then bandpass filter and amplifier. Most likely you can filter this out of whole rubbish.
>>2958299Also you'll have to open that box to get behind comparator BC iirc those shitty motion detectors output a meander for the most massive moving object. That wouldn't do . take the signal right from the mixer, filter the needful and perhaps that'll do.
>>2957765did you ask chatgpt? i asked it something about your idea and this is what I got.Yes — you *can* write code for the cheap Doppler radar motion modules (like the **HB100**, **RCWL-0516**, or **CDM324**) to measure BB or pellet velocities… **BUT** you need to understand their limits first.Below is a breakdown of what works, what doesn’t, and an example of how you *could* build a small Doppler-based FPS meter.and it spit out a bunch of code, you should ask it if you haven't

Any of you goys used a DIY L1, L2, L5 GPS kit for a drone off of aliexpress? None of the store pages really have any documentation or explanation on how to configure it. What about RTK, do drone people use that? chatGPT claims that bluetooth gps modules off ali can be put in serial send and a radio module into serial receive and it 'just works'TM with no explanation of how to actually achieve that on a device with a single usb-A cord and no software. So I just buy an antenna, tripod, gps and then radio module and have my own RTK base station?I'm not doing anything with drones (im just soil sampling on foot/vehicle). The best thing for me would be the yuro HAS but I'm an ausfag and it's not available here apparently.

I’m looking to get started with welding and would appreciate some guidance. I don’t know much yet, so if someone could explain the basics like the differences between MIG and TIG and suggest where a beginner should start.My plan is to pick up an inexpensive welder from Harbor Freight and look for used accessories on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist to get going.As for power, my garage has a 30amp line with a 20amp rated outlet, as well as a 240V 40amp dryer outlet on the shared wall. The house has a 200 amp main breaker, with room to upgrade to 300 amps if needed.I plan to begin with a 120V welder and upgrade later as I gain more experience. My initial projects will include basic automotive work, welding exhausts, patching rusted body panels, frame rails, square tubing, and brackets. I don’t plan to work with stainless steel or aluminum at this for now.Thanks
>>2958617>Realistically, most randos have no need to ever stick anything > 1/4" together. thats thicker than truck and trailer frames.This is something that really bugs me about the welding class I'm taking right now. It's mandatory for auto tech and machining students (I'm the latter) but it's totally focused on heavy-duty structural welding bullshit, and apparently is going to become even moreso next year. (Right now it's half stick and half MIG, and they're switching to a full semester of stick.) It's insane to me because the auto students in particular will only ever do MIG or maybe TIG if they have to weld on the job and everything they do is gonna be on light gauges, so making them take a whole class of shit they'll never use while denying them experience with stuff that might be relevant is retarded.
i dont understand getting hung up about what welder or process you should lock into. each had its place and does something another wont. and welders are cheap these days. i have at least 10 including duplicate baby migs and stick boxes which have become my favorite for mobile work if i can find a plug so i dont have to listen to the engine drive scream all day. but i will say once you go big amperage its hard to go back weak penetration

I built this DIY antenna out of an old coax cable. I used some garden snips to cut off one end and strip off the shielding (I don't recommend you do this, it's tedious as fuck and you gotta be extremely careful not to cut off the copper bits) and arranged the copper into a dipole.I can only get 1 channel with this antenna, as this thing can only pick up stuff VHF transmissions that are really strong. I've tried repositioning the copper elements to better receive signals to no avail. This pic is my third version, the copper is bent to try and make it a bowtie.I'll buy an antenna on Amazon, but I would still love advice on how to improve this antenna I made, namely increasing it's effectiveness and picking up UHF signals. I can only do suggestions that can be done easily at home, no power tools, additional devices to buy, etc. Preferably something with aluminum foil and cardboard.

>>2954495Ayo wassup. You no have no reception without a proper balun. >>2954505>>2954683Deez zesty nigga know what I'm talking about.>>2954505>unidirectional antenna like a YagiDon't get played like this. Yagi is directional AF once you tune the parasites which you can't if you don't have $20 chinese nano vna.Just make a half length dipole or dipole array and make the balun out of some peace of coax( you can use roughly 1/4 of the wavelength although it does not work that way and you don't have the equipment for precise match anyway.)Basically, if you only have TV to test, you can make halflengrh dipole and reflector with the help of tape ruler and add the first parasite based on reception. Don't forget the balun. They look weird AF , don't get too much into theory, you won't understand it anyway. Just google how coax balun looks and slap it on anyway
>>2955427>but ignore claims of distance, they are bullshit. you can't pickup much more than 20 miles.I can consistently get stations from 55 miles away, though that's with picrel mounted outside on the roof.
