It's spent a year in this location (with plenty of rain!) and it's fine. Thank you for your concern and good advice.

Great job - that's quite a project you tackled. And a great first Instructable.But I can't help but wonder if the chicken wire is doing more harm than good. It's not providing much strength and it looks like it would create a lot of voids.Thoughts?Also, you say, "Grind/polish the worktop surface starting with the 200 grit working through the various grits up to 3000." But then follow that with, "Don't polish below 3000 grit as this is a waste of time." Is that a typo?

I'm not sure what you mean by hollow molded legs.The top edge is rounded a bit because of the bead of silicone set in the edge of the mold. The bottom isn't since that was on the top when poured - you could use a shaper to round that off.There are plenty of ways to embellish this, a lot of those are described in concrete countertpop post. There's a lot you can do with finishing, too.You can also go the other way and simplify it by not having any curves.PS - Look closely at the main photo - there's a cameo by my big comet goldfish. That pond is about 1700 gallons and 4' deep. There's plenty of pond building Instructables, so no need for me to make another.

Thanks, but it's not perfect. And that's the thing - with woodworking, I spend hours sanding and forming and measuring... With concrete it's more about accepting and appreciating what you get. Very satisfying.

You obviously don't know how heavy our clay soil is!But seriously, you make a good point, and one side has a small paver under it to get it level.

That looks really tasty! Are pistachio nuts a common ingredient in terrine? Also, I'll say what you call bacon is what we Americans call "Canadian Bacon". It's not smoked, right?

This is the sort of quasi-dangerous, zany Instructables of old. I love it!

Can you be more specific about the red "Chillis" and red "Peppers"? What kind?

I'm confused - the fan linked in Amazon, and the one you show in the picture, are 12 VDC fans. Are you saying to connect that to 240 VAC?!

The same reason you wear fancy underwear! :)

There's instructions and pictures of the holes at the top for the exhaust.What isn't described or mentioned at all is how the fan is powered.

Well written, and humorous Instructable.But, the word is "balun", as in Balanced/Unbalanced.

How do I get the compost out of it?

That design is for the PCB - so the spacing and wiring is good, but that doesn't cover the heat disipation - the heatsinks and ventalation.

All your other instructables are really good and properly named. ;-)

Even as spec'ed this isn't safe. The DC-DC converter is only rated for 12VDC, and you've measured it at 45VDC!

A rotary switch is discrete, not analogue.

Well, it certainly looks impressive, even if I don't know exactly what it does...

Who doesn't love banana bread?But you missed a step: integrating the wet and dry ingredients. The wet should be folded into the dry, ideally with as little mixing as possible to achieve an almost complete mix - a few streaks of flour is OK.

Full disclosure: I design commercial dimmersYou can't just look at the rating of one component and make a pronouncement on the entire circuit. The PCB as shown has insufficient spacing for even 120 VAC.While the software and DMX potion seems good, the hardware is lacking. There's no current rating here, but exceeding a few amps is a huge fire risk due to the small heatsinks and airtight enclosure. Plus, it appears that the current conductors are wires solder-tagged onto TO-220 legs with a bit of heatshrink tubing. Definitely consider something more robust! I don't mean to sound elitist, but electric shorts and fires are risk that needs to be respected.

This is one of the best instructables I've seen in a long time. Well done.

Is this an Instructable or just a story? What am I suppose to make?

Really cool, and well done!However the electrical...- NEC code requires 18" of cover for non-metallic conduit (which it appears to be). However, if you're conduit was metal, your 6" meets the minimum. NEC 300.5- NM-B (romex) is not permitted for use in wet locations. Underground conduit is defined as a wet location. NEC 334.12- You run 14 gauge wire, but that's only rated for 15 amps , not 30 amps. (strike that, it looks like a 15 amp breaker).- I don't see any ground fault protection. GFCI recepticles (or a breaker) are required. NEC 210.8(A)(3)- It looks like the NM-B pops out of the conduit and goes into a one gang metal box. There's no cable clamps on this box and the romex can be cut from the metal edges. mostly because...- ...there are no staples used to secure the romex...

Requirement is within 12" of every box and every 4 1/2'. NEC 334.30- I have no idea why you put a single circuit breaker in the shed, so I'm worried about what is feeding this.Conclusion: Stick to the carpentry, let someone else do the electrical work.

More yeast to process the extra sugar you've added?The typical reason for secondary fermentation is to allow for clarify the beer AFTER all fermentation has slowed significantly. You've added more sugar (and more yeast) and restarted active fermentation, thus cancelling out those benefits. Plus, extra corn sugar will only serve to boost alcohol content at the detriment of body.If you've transferred to secondary in less than two weeks, the yeast in the beer will do just fine and don't need more help from new yeast.

I must attempt to dissuade anyone from attempting to carry a holster that doesn't have adequate trigger protection; that includes cheap, floppy holsters. If you can spend $500 for a gun, then you should be able to afford a $50 holster.The gun pictured looks like a Para 1911 - why is it not cocked and locked as a 1911 should be when carried?Also, I think the tags "police" and "military" are inappropriate as you'd never see a professional carry in such a dangerous manner.

I'm not really fond of Instructables that are "design only" where the author tells others to build something they haven't actually built.Especially when it comes to guns.

This is really cool.FYI: It's "length", not "lenght".

So it does leak? In my experience nothing seals up holes in HDPE short of welding it. Silicone and epoxy doesn't stick to the material of those tubs.

So, being a mock up and seeing that the end caps are just Solo red cup and not PVC glued end caps with solid fitting, this really can't be used for anything except "show and tell", right?

Bats routinely nest in attics - in other words hot spaces. So, having a southeastern exposure is ideal. It warms up quickly in the morning then doesn't get too hot during the day.In addition, drill a series of small holes just beneath the top to allow some ventilation.
