I love this project! It would make such a great gift for family that's far away. :)

Nicely done! I can't believe how few remotes are out there and how expensive they are, so this is a great alternative :)

You are right - I can't find it in search! I added a couple of additional keywords and it's still missing. I can't see anything that would prevent it from showing up, so I'm going to pass this on to our dev team to see if I can get an answer for you. :)

Two things I've desperately wanted to add for a bit: a drill press and a belt sander! I feel like I'm always using a handheld drill or sander to the point where I can't feel my hands haha

This is so gorgeous! I love puzzles like these.

Thank you for the tips about the PVC and the galvanised steel steps! I think I'd definitely like to try a gutter first to redirect the flow. I have rock beds on either side of the porch so it'd be safe to have ice there.Snow catchers are also something I'm looking into now. Might be good for a couple areas!The worst part about that wooden porch: they built it with nails D: It'll be nice to upgrade it with a proper frame, hardware and steps. Those steel steps will also be great for mud season.

Ah, thanks for the explanation regarding heating! I really was not sure if that was feasible, but it's nice to know I can count that out. :P Gravel is definitely a decent solution until next year! I tried sand briefly but only ended up with more of a mess, haha I think you're right that we'll have to figure out some sort of permanent build to fix it! At least we've got a bit to plan. :)

Yeah, I think I'm going to try some kind of PVC gutter thing thanks to the suggestions here! It would be really great to have an additional bit of roofing built, too. If gutters don't work out I'll probably need to start talking to some builders up here. :)

Purple and rainbow are gorgeous!!

Hello! I would say the biggest thing that's missing from your instructables are clear main images. Text is great on the other images - it makes your instructables super easy to understand! But I'd suggest trying to show what the project does in the main image instead of adding text to explain it. It can be a little tricky with tech projects, but it helps to set them apart. Keep the main image simple and clear and you'll have great instructables. :)

P.S. Yes. I know those nests are hideous. That's the next thing to fix: pressure wash those off and put up some stuff the birds will hate when they're not migrating :)

Really clever idea. :)

Those look so lovely! I never would have thought they were made out of old tea lights. :)

This is a great idea! I should use one of my leather scraps for this. :)

I love how the finished light looks! You should swap out the main photo with one of the lit up ones - they're really eye catching :D

Well done! I really like that effect. :)

So cute!!

That's gorgeous! I almost want to make one as a tree topper for my tiny Norfolk :)

That's a nice solution! Much better than tying the bag to something and hoping it stays, which is what I normally do. I'll have to do this next time. :)

That came out great! The lights are fantastic :D

The teeny snowflake ones are so pretty!

Sometimes instructables can be a little *too* complex, and I think this is a good example! The information is great but a little overwhelming in the current form. I think this instructable would do better broken down into a few different instructables, for example: How to Make and Use Prussian Blue for Dyeing How to Make a Prussian Blue Pipe NecklaceHow to Dye Clothing Using UV Pigment PowdersTips for Waterproofing ClothingInstructables with simpler titles tend to do better as folks know exactly what they're clicking on! It also helps more people find you via search engines.I'd also recommend inserting a "tools and materials" list on step 2 (or wherever works for you, but step 2 is the norm!) so that readers can easily see what they need to reproduce the porject.

One last thing to consider is to take detailed photos of each step! The videos and text are nice for further explaining the process, but I'd love to see photos or everything measured out, being mixed, the dyeing process, etc.

Nice! Now I have another use for the gigantic panini flat plates I have :D

Fantastic instructable! Thanks for the explanation of bringing a 2D drawing into 3D. :)

Really clever examples! This is a great use of 3D printing :)

Really well done! So much detail in the print and painting. :)

How gorgeous!!

Really well done! The effect is really crisp :)

Dang this is awesome! Great project :D

Great idea! The commercial versions are insanely expensive and this looks really professional. :)

This is absolutely amazing - what a great lighting rig. Your photos are fantastic :D

So interesting! Really neat to see how this is done. :D

How neat! I've never seen this technique before. :)

I could watch the video of that TALPB module all day! Really clever project.

This came out looking so good! And if you ever decide to quit your day job you now have an outfit to be a space pirate :D

This is a great instructable! I've done lots of lightbulb replacements on strings throughout the years, but never been able to pinpoint the issue as well as you do here. :D

Daaaang. This is fantastic!

That is gorgeous!

Ha, for sure! I don't think I'll ever forget the majority of the monsters they created :D

It turned out so so pretty! I've been loving the process shots and the finished table doesn't disappoint :D

Sunday can definitely be a busy time for posting, but it's just a coincidence about not getting featured! In the case of this instructable, my immediate response was that there are too few photos. However, after reading it I can see why - the videos help illustrate what you're doing in a quicker way. I featured it after reading because I think it's a really great idea and well documented. :) In the future I'd recommend adding photos of the process to each step. (Along with whatever videos you'd like to include of course!) We definitely prefer text and photo tutorials instead of video ones! Adding photos (especially a great intro photo) will absolutely up your chances of being featured.

That main image is SO GOOD. Great instructable!! :D

Absolutely gorgeous work! I love that you included so many photos of the process. :D

These are great!! The iris colors are awesome looking :)

Fantastic! This is the first vending machine costume I've seen and I'd say it's set the bar really high :D

SO CREEPY!! This is wonderful :D

This is so neat! I love how much detail goes into this :D

It looks so dramatic! Really well done :D

The hands are so creepy! Love it :D

The cake is super cute and so are your pups :D

The end result is so much nicer than what I've seen in stores :)

Genius!

So many cute games!! This is really creative :D

These sound amazing!

Fantastic job! The face paint is really on point :D

Your decorations are gorgeous!!

aww how cute is that? Your photos are great, too! :D

Daaaang that dress turned out beautifully!! :)

Magnets are such a great idea for this! I'm definitely hanging all the tiny creepy things off my lighting fixtures in the future :D

Let me explain featuring a bit, just so everyone is on the same page. :DFeaturing honestly has a very long window in which it can happen - it's not always right away. Sometimes the first staff member to review the instructable will feature it, but sometimes another staff member might be browsing the recent feed a few days later and have it catch their eye and feature it then. I've even featured or re-featured instructables months or years after they were published because I stumbled across them randomly and loved them. :) Everyone on staff has different interests and skills and we tend to use that to our advantage. An instructable I'm not super keen about might be really exciting to someone else on staff who features it. This allows us to make sure we have a good variety on content show...

Things done right: // I like the text on the main image! That is really important for many tech/electronics projects so folks can immediately see what it is and does// Your text is very clear and thorough and all the additional resource links are great // Title is clear and conciseThings that can be improved:// Moving the video to the top (intro step) is best// On Step 1, turn the parts list in a bulleted list for easier reading - that'll condense it so readers won't have to scroll as much// As far as the Step 1 photos, I'd recommend either laying out all the parts on a surface and taking a photo, or collaging/editing together all the individual stock photos you've used into one large image so all parts can be seen at a glance. I had a look at the rest of your ibles, too! You do a reall...

I had a look at the rest of your ibles, too! You do a really great job of explaining what the projects are about. Overall, I'd love to see more photos you've taken instead of stock ones - they make the project so much more interesting to read!

While this instructable is a good resource for those looking for a low cost oscilloscope, it doesn't contain enough of your own work for a feature. It reads as an article instead of a tutorial. (Though your intro is very well written and descriptive!) Instead of linking to others' videos and images, it's best to work through the process and document it yourself. The made2hack instructable you linked to in your project is a good example of what that looks like. Let me know if you have any more questions. :)
