Right, and thanks for comment. I explored replacement with Li-ion, but price to buy made it economically not feasible. And sometimes corded has an advantage: always ready,

Thanks for the comment, Uncle Kudzu. You should do it. Giving a new life to an old device is more rewarding than buying the new one (at least that's how I feel).

Thanks for comment, Alex. As you can see in the video if I push the trigger at once drill does not start. But when I am doing it slowly it takes some time to speed up, but eventually, start to rotate as needed. Two things help (I believe): 1) adapter can provide current strong enough (6 A), 2) this drill (as most modern drills) has variable speed trigger which allows gradually increase of speed and the corresponding increase of torque.

Thanks for comment, Allex. As video shows, if I push the switch fast drill does not start. But when I make it slowly it works. There two things helpful (I believe): 1) adapter provides enough current (6 A); 2) this drill (as most of modern drills) has variable speed trigger. There is no need in much torque to start slow speed rotation, with gradual speed increase there is corresponding increase in torque.

Nice. The idea to shine more as something is opened wider is very attractive. I may steal it for my some future project. And I should learn more about the Hall effect sensor.

Nice. Very useful. But using your tear down photos I probably would change batteries.

That's good. Will add to my tool box.

I myself made inscrutable about non-traditional usage of heat-shrink. But I did not know about usage provided here. Nice and useful idea. I will include it into my toolbox for sure.

Thanks for nice comment jaxfablab and especially for reading the text (not only watching photos). Very seldom people nowadays have a time for that.

No we do not have any special rebate for vegetable garden (at least I do not aware about that). Condition of rebate is to remove sprinklers but keep yard more or less green. We did put two tart cherry trees and pomegranate shrub: hope to get some harvest from it sometime.

Sure, my son did 40% of digging and wife selected plants. I'll think about covering tubes with mulch later (we are still adding plants here and there). Thanks.

Thanks. Indeed I hated mowing and I will sell (or even donate) lawn mower with pleasure. But, seriously speaking, main point is water economy. Here in Bay Area usually we do not have single raindrop for 5-6 months from the middle of April till the end of September. Water bills could be enormous and keeping all grass green is a challenge. Drip irrigation looks like the only reasonable choice. (The other possibility is to cover front yard with bricks and concrete but that we did not like to do).

Very good project Linn! May you share with us what kind of photo gear you are using for usual street photo session?
