BN #Nostr

With the rain in the forecast I HAD to get out and work on the studio before it hits. The gaping hole in the wall was only half empty of the bricks and if I wanted to cover the opening I needed it cleared. In the morning I kept at the brick removal and got to the point I was about to pull down the inside, but there was still stuff on the mantle. I managed to remove all the bricks with minimal debris inside. Today I will work on filling the hole in with lumber before weather hits.

I got my stepper motor but am fighting with it and the motor driver. The code is correct but I think I need more voltage to drive the motor as there is a couple volts dropped in the driver H-bridges. I am going to check my tattoo gun power supply and see if it will go over 12 volts as it could be a possible option if it does.

I get my new #LoRa today so am looking forward to getting them going as they have GPS this time.

Ooof! Big job. We had to take that on in our place last year, the whole thing was crumbling and threatening to take the house down with it! Cleaned up nice though.

Came out great! Likely much more needed on your house than my studio as we have gas heat so I am able to fully remove it without worry. Really amazing to me that the Romans made mortar that has lasted thousands of years yet this 60 year old mortar is trash.
