/diy/ - Do It Yourself

My recommendation is make a home made ghetto blaster.

Grab a 12v sealed lead acid battery like this one
http://www.amazon.com/18Ah-Sealed-Lead-Battery-Terminals/dp/B001C20T9C/ref=pd_cp_e_1

And a charger for it

Get a cheap car head unit

Wire your speakers into the head unit and mount it in an awesome ghetto blaster box such as in my pic!

drill holes, and grommet them!
What, dont know how to grommet/ dont have supplies? do you have $5? Of course you do! get this shit at the harbor freight!

My recomendation is to cut a piece of fiber glass cloth to the shape and size of the affected area and then cover with slow setting resin. Once its set sand it smooth and enjoy your fixed board.

As a side note, pressure cracks wont be fixed ever, but you can stop further damage by using my method. eventually pressure cracks can get so bad that you snap your board in half, its just the way its gonna be!

I get my supplies from TAP

meant to say 2 table spoons of xylitol and a teaspoon of sugar, but I like mine a little lemony!

My hard lemonade recipe is super simple. for a five gallon batch.

bring 3 gallons of water to a boil, add a whirflock tablet. add 6 pounds of the lightest liquid malt you can buy, add 2 pounds of honey.

add this to one gallon of cold water in your fermenter, and pitch champagne yeast.

let ferment for about 8 or so days

transfer to a bottling bucket and add, 4 packs of lemonade cool aid and the pulp and lemon juice of 6 lemons. I also peal and filet the rind and add that to each bottle so you get a slice of lemon rind in each drink.

I sweeten with xylitol so not to over carbonate the bottles. I use two table spoons and teaspoon of suger per bottle.

I'm totally going to make that shoulder mount. except I will have to adapt it to work with my rail accessories.

one of my buddies bought a Cavision shoulder mount and its super nice, but the film riot one with its counter weights looks way more comfortable.

I was thinking you could mount a threaded bar between your two holes on your plate with some nuts, then get a bar connecter like in the pic. if it werent so late i would cad it for you

just bottled a 5 gallon belgian wit today! super excited for that. Still drinking my kolsch though! next brew is probably going to be a mikes hard lemonade nock off recipe I created my self! I call it Marsh Hard Lemonade.

I have a question, how many beer bottles do you usually get from a 5 gal batch? today I was able to bottle 42 from my wit beer, but my kolsch i only bottled about 30

Those dont work under water.

you could use the frother stirrer by hiding it in the cap. when you take it apart you will realize that the majority of the space is taken up by the switch and the batteries. If you cleverly relocate them, they will fit in the cap. I might try this as well since it looks like a cool idea. I'd probably do a 50/50 alcohol to water ratio and some drops of blue food color.

You could modify this thing. it creates a vortex in my coffee every morning.

My only idea is this, Buy this set

Obtain proper diameter buckets corresponding to the sizes of the heads. Obtain hoops to keep those in place, make your own hardware to keep those in place. Drill a 1/4" hole in the side of your buckets. play buckets like a bad ass!

I agree with this statement 110%

Just buy a fricken bulb.

Why is no one suggesting wheel chair batteries? They seem like a logical choice they come in many capacitys, voltages, and sizes.

First thing to do, Buy fabric!

Mount it with mounting tape then secure it with mirror holders.

These are the things you need

What size screen is it?

ok, what you want is a mixer. Connect your computer to one of the inputs and connect your line 6 interface to another one of the inputs and connect the output to your speakers.

I would recommend the light ale idea.

build a base ale by boiling 3 gallons of water in a stock pot. add 3 pounds light dry malt extract. cool contents add to your fermenter and pitch american ale yeast. let ferment for 5 or so days then transfer to another container leaving behind the bottom inch of liquid. do this again in another 5 days.

This ale will be super sweet since there are no hops in it. Basically it's a malt liquor. Now add your root beer extract or whatever you choose to flavor your root beer, then sweeten to tast using a sugar alcohol such as xylitol. I use xylitol to sweeten my hard lemonade which I make the same way.
