My setup: I have a 3 way setup where one switch is a dimmer. I had the Leviton 6674N-10W as the dimmer switch. I didn't really pay attention to the bit about 150W of LEDs. I'm exceeding that 150W, as I am running to 4 sunco can lights and about 72 feet of FCOB lighting strips. Which at max wattage is about 190W. (I doubt it ever gets to that, but I haven't measured it exactly)

The FCOB Strips are driven by 2 120 watt 24v transformers. They seem to be pretty high quality and don't get hot even when I've been running at max lumens for a while.

It's a fairly large room with a high ceiling, and these lights definitely light the place up.

Either way, as you might expect, the circuit wa

What's the best way to achieve this exact color and shine? Is it dependent upon the wood?

I need to build some furniture for an office and the room its going into would match this sort of green-brown side of gold.

I have some slabs of Locust, Silver Maple, and Sickamore that I have available to me. Which

I bought a Vevor 2200 Watt double hopper unit. Made a couple test runs with powered mix with beautiful results.

I decided to do a run of homemade custard from a frozen custard recipe I found online. It had Very, very high milk fat. E.g. 50% of it was heavy cream.

I nailed the execution of the mix itself; best custard I've ever made, no yolk curdling at all. I was super stoked.

After hitting wash and then freeze as per the directions, the first sample out of the unit was amazing. Not quite as smooth and creamy as I was dreaming about, but it was still great.

Then a few minutes later, I tried another sample, and it was getting very grainy.

After that it just kept getting worse. An

As part of a local Lodge of Freemasons, we want to honor our past brothers by placing flags at their grave sites once a year. (The local cemeteries only allow us to do this once a year, over Memorial Day Weekend.)

We have a roster of our deceased brothers, but the cemeteries themselves don't have maps. Several folks have set about making ad-hoc maps or descriptions, which sort of work by ones and twos, but for hundreds of people over several cemeteries, this is not a scalable solution.

I have been thinking about using low-flying drones and OCR to put names to the grave-sites on a map. (And create the map itself)

Has anyone attempted this?

I am hoping that that within our network there are reputable craftsmen that respond to emails.

I have been searching for an outfit to make 10 or so custom tie clips. I reached out to every site I could find on Google and got no replies.

Does anyone know anyone, or can point me in a direction? Thanks.

r/WLED•

I have some LED installations for the home; accent lighting and whatnot, and the idea of having signals go out to "the cloud" and back seems silly (and also slow).

I want to be able to slide a dimmer and tell my esp's and PI's to adjust. Direct radio signals would be best. WiFi would be worst case scenario.

Is there an open version of Zigbee, or Esp/Teensy boards that speak something like that natively?
