/diy/ - Do It Yourself

Idk why it keeps flipping them sorry

plumber anon I got a question.
How do you feel about electric tankless water heaters? Also would a water manifold be a good thing to install at the same time?
That gray pipe, its not PVC but I guess has a tendency to leak...any advice? I was going to replace with Pex when I do my remodel.
Im buying a small house that is on a well and only has 4 points of use and a water heater

>>753030
Have that system in my house (or something similar). Never saw anything like it before in my life before moving to Canada.

Holy jesus my life has imporved considerably now that I don't have to plan a shower and turn the immersion heater on in time.

>>753039
Use wirisbro pipeing if you want to go plastic, the fittings havea bigger inside diameter and is a reliable product. Tankless heaters are the way to go if you can afford a good one.
I don't see much sence on making up a manifold unless you have a really big house.

>>753030
>>753031
looks rad as hell plumbanon

>>753032
somethingsomething your phone saves it sideways, and has a bit of code telling it to flip correctly when you're viewing it in your phone. 4chan can't read that code or something, so it posts them in the original orientation. I have the same exact problem, since most of the pics I post on /diy/ are from my phone.

>>753032
4chan strips EXIF data from images on upload. EXIF data contains orientation information. OP was not a faggot.

Made the turn signal(s)on my car. They're not finished yet but I'm still proud of them. Started with an aluminum plate and ended up with these. Finished fitting them tonight and tomorrow I've got to get the mesh in place and get ready for powder coat.

>>753030
>>753031
nicely done

>>753030
Currently working on this silly arse 6ft bay window, had to have all the frames remade (factory's job, fitting on commision) after whoever sized it up somehow got it nearly 200mm too wide, 100mm short and 70mm too deep, could have installed the new bay without taking the old one out

>>753190
Whoops, here's a pic of the now boarded up bay window

>>753115
why do you kill the miata? go back to /o/.

>>753190
>>753191
i dont get it

>>753194
Timber subframe over that lead you can see and then alu windows on top of that, they measured from the window frames to price for ripping it all out and replacing with plastic, could have installed the new windows around the old ones, quite easily

I built my prosthetic penis all on my own.

D2d salesman here selling WH HVAC and the likes. I'm experienced enough to identify code infractions in Ontario, however does anyone know if its legal for someone without a plumbing/gas licence to install gas venting (pvc) on a gas appliance? This is in their own home and I've seen a gentleman use abs adhesive to stick the PVC together.

#carbonmonoxidepoison

>>753233
Homeowner can do whatever they want.

However, if it doesnt pass code any gas fitter can shut it down and make them repair it to code. In Ontario, type BH vented appliances must be System 636 pipe installed with the approved cleaner and adhesive.

you should go get a gas license. G3 level you can do at home and at least then you can red tag things

3d printed?

>>753030
Why aren't they secured against the wall, and why use rigid pipes when it could move regardless of being secured and break the pipes?

>>753258
Which pipes

>>753258
this anon has no clue

although i probably would have thrown up a hanger near the expansion tank

>>753272
Ya the hot supply is right on top of it so you would ether have to double hang it or make up a trapeze hanger with unistrut, not really worth it she is pretty solid

>>753193
>implying
I don't understand. How is lower under hood temps a bad thing?

>>753031
Hey, plumberfag, gorgeous work! What type of would you recommend for a 10 unit building of single-bedroom apartments? Ours is about to shit the bed. My buddy at Steibel-Eltron says heat pump coupled with solar panels on our flat roof.

>>753030
built all these scaffold

>>753375
also built 10 floors of these stairs
I build custom concrete forms

I managed to replace the steering wheel on my Ford Focus without any help.

Kind of a big deal, I mean I don't even change my own oil.

>>753030
Here's a couple condensers I set. Did 2 for the same customer at different properties I was really proud of but didn't get pictures.

>>754641
Another. I need to do them quicker,but quality and appearance matter to me.

>>753113
If it strips the orientation header, it should rotate it accordingly.

On JPEG you can do this losslessly, as it's all made of square macroblocks.

Mooooooooot.....

Rigged up 16 frac pumps into a zipper manifold on a triple well pad. Rig up turned out nice. And I really like this picture.

Don't have any final product images, but this is at about 95% completion of the wax model. I'll get it investment cast in sterling silver.

Kerb line for a car park. Setting out was a bitch but it came through good.

Irish bro?

Got a thermal camera for virtually nothing, but all the batteries were worn out, and it's so old they hardly make batteries like this anymore.
So, I gutted the dead-est one and threw in a buck-boost DC/DC converter, barrel jack, and output. Everything inside is held tightly in place with moldable plastic. The hole on the back goes to the voltage adjustmet pot on the regulator, so I can adjust the voltage.
Since the PDA attachment doesn't work due to no software, and the eyepiece is black and white, I got a cheapo car back-up camera monitor, which is powered by the output. I didn't bother to try to make it pretty, and it's just held together with tape for now so I can easily cut it open again, but it works perfectly. It's such a common size of jack that I can power it with pretty much any random adapter between 3 and 35 volts (although at 3v it would take quite a large amount of current to spin up the camera's filter wheel...). I even have a cigarette lighter plug that will fit.

>>753191
nice place

>>753197
i still dont get where that thing leads. like is the glass a ceiling of a room or something? it just looks like a 1x1x1m box from the pictures

>>753375
>>753376
thats nice

>>754902
what did you put inbetween the stones? cement?
im used to people putting gravel in there from what i see, probably so shit can breathe and move a bit

also how long did it took you to do all that? looks like a lot of stones

>>753375
Mm try tube and fitting before you go bragging about your elite trestle tower skills, monkeys can use system scaffolds

>>756451
it's a small bay window, prop is holding up the roof that was literally just sat on the frames with no connection to building

Took a while

>>756525
Gah! Fire your painter. Damn fool got paint all over that nice exposed beam.

Nice chain shirt though.

>>756533
Thanks.
It's a refurbished factory, just renting the apartment.
And yeah they did a pretty shit job with paining, got lots on beams all over the place, I don't really notice it any more though

>>756469
i still dont get it. ive even googles bay window and it makes even less sense

>>756525
how?

>>756542
You'll need:
A big spool of 14 guage steel wire, a 5/16 diameter metal rod with a small hole drilled through in one spot, a power drill, a 2x4, 8 inch bolt cutters, 2 pliers with teeth and about a hundred man hours.
If you want a tutorial look up "Storm the castle chainmail" on youtube.

>>756540
Then there is no hope for you in the fenestration industry

>>756453
>>756453
3 parts sharp sand~1 part cement. Pointed in.

That section of paving took a month to put down, reduce dig then right back up to finished level. I worked out the other day it's costing the bloke in the region of £250 per square meter

>>756525
I can't believe you made cans of WD-40 by yourself.

>>757021
Shut the fuck up you fucking dumbass idiot. You think you're so funny. Its fucking obvious what the fuck he's talking about.
>>756525
With that said, you should of spent more time and taped off that beam man. Paint all over it.

>>757025
>Shut the fuck up you fucking dumbass idiot. You think you're so funny. It's fucking obvious what the fuck he's talking about.
There's no need to get this mad. It was a simple joke you neanderthal.

>>756535
Have I seen your room on /fa/? I think I recognize those ceilings

>>756540
http://www.cassettari-construction.co.uk/services/bay-windows/ appears to be what >>753191 will end up like.

Carpenter for a custom home builder, (the guy with the awesome boss) ill start with this. Had to straight line and plane (to take the bark off) all these 8 quarter rough cut alder boards and sand to stain grade. Then furred out the wall. Then mitered in to follow the columns

>>757118
After all the "beams" up on both sides of the opening I put additional cleats on the inside of the furs to allow for alder sheets to be slipped in(1/2 inch for bottoms and 3/4 for top) to create floating shelves. Stone is gonna be on the 2 "columns" but its really gonna like floating shelf transom. There will be glass placed between each shelf, kept in placed by stone. This is from the inside. Reverse of last.

I just stuck more batteries into my PSP2000, getting 4000mAh instead of the normal 1200mAh. (two 2000mAh in the UMD compartment)
I'm not exactly proud, but thrilled as hell.

What I regret is not being able to fit a switch inside.

>>753030
is it just me or is the intake and exhaust being put into the same cpvc tee, or am i seeing a strange concentric kit

>>758101
Btw that's all taped down with some sexy electrical tape now.
I'm not some retarded 13 years old kid...

made this harpsichord with my uncle. it took us almost 2 years and its the diy thing I'm the most proud of.

>>758669
Holy fuck. Good job.
I want a harpsichord.

>>758674
thank you very much! these are quite expensive instruments but you can buy "kits" in various stages of completion. if you are good with woodworking and have the tools (and time) you can make one for under 5k $

>>758669

>>758685

>>758686
gold leaves on the sides of the instrument

>>758688
stringing

>>758681
I have tools. I have time. If I only had the space for one I would strongly consider a kit.

In my lifetime I also want to own a pipe organ. I don't care if I'm 60 years old when it happens, I want.

I'm assuming you play?

>>758689
oil painting on the cover (took me like 6 months)

>>756994
hot damn that looks like a shitload of work for one person

>>758691
yep I was playing the piano (self taught) and was fascinated by the harpsichord sound. I knew my uncle built some, so I asked him for help. (Im bad with tools) I love the organ too, had the chance to play it in a church with my metal band (kek)

>>757113
now i get it. thanks
looks a bit small though

>>757124
looks clean as fuck. nice job

>>758696
nice going, you seem to be blessed with a lovely family

>>758691
and I didnt had the space either (my harpsichord is stuck between my bed and my closet, almost cant open it). you have smaller instruments with "similar" sound, like a virginal or clavichord, if you are interested.

>>753030
We have the exact same one at the school where I work

I know it may no be very diy but I am ducking proud of it (dumping concrete this afternoon). Btw any questions on how we build in the third world?

>>758776
Ya where is the school I have put them in a few schools in southern Ontario (prob a long shot)

I welded this flange.

>>758985
Fucking sexy. That shit is my fetish.

>>758985
you're welding not weaving bro.

>>758866
Looks like how they build shit in south American countys... Build a form, pour fiberglass reinforced concrete. Let it set off, remove mold. I hear its cheaper then cinder blocks. I've always wondered how, if technically you're using more concrete.

Filled and re-centered a laquer rolleron both ends
Running at 0.005 mm

>>758985
Serious underfill and undercut! I can see that you have adequate fusion but the weld is concave and you have eaten away at the base material at both edges without replacing it with filler. Your tight woven lead in, which is almost to the very right of the picture is FABULOUS! However, as you move left, your weave opens up and turns to shit... I'm guessing as you didn't control the heat well enough or were not applying adequate or any filler material. Your first 2 weave steps have the correct spacing for your heat and filler application... the rest are shit I can tell this because I can see the scratches the Alumina cup makes on the parent material..... And so can your customer.

Remove them after or freehand with a hot finger.

I would give it a Reject/10 but you are ALMOST there.

>>756468

Try fitting a tapered Hexogonal utility pole arm with an arch. I'm sure you've seen them hanging off of transmission line towers silently holding power cables. They must be uniform to within 2 total degrees in the loaded position while maintaining an overall rise that is within one inch over the entire length of 8-12 feet.

Being the only person who knows how to not only do all the math, set and run bending machinery, and who is willing to slap an engineer has served me well :) .

fun times...

>>759033
nice

>>759047
It passed all its pressure tests leak-free. What appears to be concavity is a trick of the light, there was some but it's not as extreme as it looks. This was a terrible fitup, tight on one side and huge gaps elsewhere. Employer didn't want me to do any cosmetic passes so out the door it goes. Good enough is good enough as they say.

>>758985
Though that hole looks disgusting

>>759140

This is a modular roof light I made for a university project.

>>759005
Well, due to poor planning and the high cost of predefined forms we use wood forms made on the spot. 90% of constructions in Bolivia are steel reinforced concrete enclosed with ceramic brick

>>759199
Like it.

>>759199
This is what it looks like when it is not in a well lit room. I wanted the warm LEDs to make the white curved modules the same warm clour of the light, I was surprised it worked so well.

>>759207
This is a photo some guy took of it at the exhibition it was in. Apparently the film costs $25 per shot and he only took 3 photos, so it was a nice gesture.

>>759203
Thanks man.

>>759207
That looks wonderful!! As in I would like to own it

>>759202
How do you deal with windows and doors when the planning is poorly done? Do you just cut holes in the walls where you think they should be afterwards?

tooling machinist here
123 block in pic for size

>>759229
Pretty much, though doors and windows don't really have standardized sizes like in the states. We do leave spaces where the doors and windows should go, but these constantly need trimming and filling. In the pic you can see how the holes on the brick walls are left for windows.

>>759399
>The building planner is too lazy to figure out how to evenly space windows of the same size.

>>759337
What's that for? A form or mold for a holding tank or something?

>>758993
Walking the cup is a perfectly acceptable technique. A little more uniformity at the toes would have been nice, but it still passes a visual.

>>759047
If you failed this weld on a visual, your credentials would be called into question and you'd likely never see that jobsite again. It's fine to be a weld inspector and offer your critique, but don't be a pretentious asshole and think nobody's gonna call you on your shit. Because some of us know more than you.

A cabin my father and I built about 5 years ago for a family friend.

Moved away 2 years ago and still doing all kinds of carpentry but the only pics I have on hand.

My uncle and I cleared all the land and made a 3 acre pond. worked out well.

>>759761
Did you pump in all that water ?

no it was over a natural creek. Built a dam but was hard to find clay.

>>759413
that was a negative made out of 30lb foam, afterwords they laid fiberglass on it, then when it cure the fiberglass part was the tool.

Tubing for differential pressure transmitters on a gas refrigerator package.

>>753030
Typically I'm on a swing stage working on the outside of the building. Today was nice because I got to come inside and do custom mirror work. One down, eighteen more bathrooms to go.

>>760192
Before

Me and my crew. It wasn't technically by myself, but I'm still really proud of it.

Apparently we built this in China.

Apparently we built that wall in Australia.

I build concrete swimming pools. Concrete work, tying rebar, tiling, plumbing, wiring up lights, chlorinators, etc.

>>760196
g'day m8

congrats, now YOU are the idiot.

>>758669
>the diy thing I'm the most proud of.

nice!

>>757124
Please do my home's wood work.

>>759810
Very nice. Electrical apprentice fag here, and the mechanical crew on the site I'm at now doesn't do tubing anywhere near that nice for the instruments.

And don't get me started on the pneumatic lines to their air valves.... christ almighty it's like they don't even know what a right angle is

tl;dr 10/10 would boner while wiring

>>753357

To be fair I'm not a welder or weld inspector, but I wouldn't let one of my welds out the door with that much undercut.

>>754758
Who do you work for?

>>760691
>Whats the first hour rating on your previous unit
There's a place that says "Recovery- 180.9 GPH"
>Was it undersized or oversized
Slightly under, I'd guess.
>Did your unit ever have problems recovering during heavy usage
Especially when more than 3 people were using their showers at the same time. Recovery could take more than 1/2 hour, although the water would never get completely icy.

Nice. Where the leave looking things bought or made?

>>753030
from one plumber to another, that's a nice clean job. On the top right of the first pic, why'd you use two 45s instead of one 90?

Electrician Here: Some crazy conduit I had to bend into a can.

Electrician again: Different angle

>>767300
>>767299
dude that's beautiful. the conduits are so parallel and uniform too

>>765353
That freakin Dihedral !!

>>767300
see this is why you need electricians and it's a qualified trade. this kind of industrial/commercial work needs to not be fucked up.

but in australia it's the same qualification that is legally required to replace a light switch in a residential application. it's really quite retarded how our laws work.

>>753030
Unfortunately, I suck at creating stuff myself - however, I'm really good at repairing and improving stuff that's already made, like...
>replastering my shed and renewing its roof
>replacing collapsed fiberboard in my bed with slats
>conjoining the broken halves of the chassis of my lawn mower with GF/UP laminate
>machining a new piston for the hand pump in my yard
>replacing light bulbs with LEDs in the family heirloom Christmas lights
(etc.)

Personal favourite: renovating a Panhead which I had bought in a basket

>inb4 redneck

>>767300
>>>753191
thats gorgeous, puts me to shame. fuck is that steel conduit too?? i think i bent that once in tafe. eeesh.

>>767387
I don't know what you mean by qualified but I've only been working as an electrician for about 5 months now and I'm technically just an apprentice. Its just something I wanted to try even though I've almost finished out a Computer Science Degree. I needed some fun work to do so I decided to be an electrician for a bit.

This is probably more /o/ related, but I'm fairly proud of this build. Roommate bought the car, wanted to do a few upgrades, and gave me almost total creative control over the build, as long as it was within his budget.
The only work that was outsourced was having the cylinder head resurfaced. Everything else was done in my garage, using my own equipment and some tools I had to build/modify. Still needs a little work to be complete, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.

This is from the day he bought it

This is the most recent pic. Stripped the engine compartment, repainted, rewired from scratch, and did a fair amount of fabrication work.

>>768974

>>769275

>>769798
...my cd player which is my most recent addition to the system (completed less than 2 weeks ago). It has been on my mind though for ~3 years..
Also the lcd is not as bright as the pic shows. It is green letters on black background

>>764986
not that anon, but you should know that money doesn't usually come to you if you stick to your very narrow field of "things i like". The number of retards using the word "bae" in a non-ironical fashion is so high that if those rings start gaining some attention, anon might be sitting on a nice wad of cash soon.

Well. Ebay would be the best choice. Would you want to build your own or just buy a complete one?. Also are you from EU or...? I use the in-14 nixie tubes. I got 6 for 26,50 Euro. I think that price is reasonable since someone had to gather old clocks, dissemble them and text the tubes (it will take some time to do). Price i mentioned is with shipping.
Remember nixies are not just cheap digital displays, though they might be old they still work and look great!

The boxes are from a local enclosure manufacturer, I replaced the carry handles with brass nuts.
The amplifier is built from scratch (not my design though)
The CD player is a computer cd-rom (ide) with a controller from ebay to give you control over the ide channel for playback. I tried two iterations of cdrom controllers that were published on diyaudio, however both were in experimental stages, were two layer boards ==> a bitch to make and troubleshoot and lastly, inconsistent in their performance. So I got that part premade, from a chinese seller and swapped the lcd for one that I liked.
The DAC (the third box with only a power button on it) is made from scratch by me, the schematic came from elliot sound products (sound.westhost.com)

Hmm, so it must be Filipinos who tangle my christmas lights every year.

'murrica. and it still seems unreasonable. I guess that although I want them they're not worth the expense for me. VFD on the other hand...

Hmm from an american point of view this might be true. For a scandinivian like me it is in fact almost the opposite. I have a high income, but pay more for many products (compared to murrica). As an example computer parts are (what I consider) dirt cheap in murrica compared to our prices (importing is not an option considered insane import taxes).
And as far as I know you will have to import from Europe, right? If so I can imagine the price is a bit higher.

Sad that I don't have the actual pic, but this close enough.
Electrician reporting in and the only way to make this more beautiful is if I had been able to do it in rigid.

>>772133
Is that IMC? I dont know why you would want rigid over IMC, rigid is inferior in damn near every way.

Those buttons with the green lighting... Ive seen them before... I don't remember where... Where can I buy some?

In Australia we would never be able to get away with those long runs of unsupported pipe and hanging the expansion tank off the pipework.
Also with the manifold we have to go in one end out the other, not pipe into the middle.

It was similar in Wales in the 80s. I got a bollocking for leaving my nan's one on and the electric meter (that took 50p pieces) kept running out super quick.

There was also one of those Rediffusion switcher systems there.

I hope you at least gave the old widower a percentage.

Ebay is choke full of them from chinese sellers. In other colours as well. You just have to be careful and read the listing because there are latching and momentary types.
search for "metal button led (color)" and amongst the first results you should see the ones you want.
