    Mulberry? Oak?

    It's probably one of those instead then lol. Not really hairy enough for the aibika, I was too focused on the leaf shape. Glad I could help narrow it down anyway

    Let's Go All In On Battery Tools . . . Or?

    It's a pressurized nozzle designed to shoot water straight up into a car battery system to cool it from the inside-out. Normal methods of extinguishing fires like foams and powders which smother flames won't work because the problem is the buildup of heat. Trying to cool it from the outside...

    Let's Go All In On Battery Tools . . . Or?

    At work we started trialing electric tools a few years ago (all Greenworks so far) so I've got a dozen 80v batteries laying around. The infrastructure for tool storage and staff facilities was built in the 70s and often repurposed from other needs so we've run into issues with insufficient...

    All the small things…

    after reading this post in September: https://www.treebuzz.com/forum/threads/heat-rash-working-in-wet-tight-fitting-clothes.48621/post-745606 I did end up buying a couple Brynje mesh t-shirts to try.

    When I replaced my bridge to make it a double last month I tied some accessory cord in a prusik around both. The mismatch in size let me use a 4-wrap for the same grip

    What the bananas

    Nothing yet unfortunately, not even on the ascending vid which only shows it dragging up the rope. Only Giorgio's videos which show him climbing on prototypes over the last ten years

    What the bananas

    FTC Freexion is finally available for sale, about 270 USD at Maple Leaf Ropes, shipping in early February. Its features seem tailor-made for production climbing. Along with the cam-pinched bollard for minimal drag while ascending it has three friction settings which don't necessitate opening the...

    Houseplants and Gardens

    I keep trying to get low-thc hemp to grow for the textiles and cosmetics garden but ironically in Ontario it's harder to obtain hemp seed than standard cannabis. And the invasive species technicians who work in the adjacent natural lands would kill me if I got it and they found out anyway

    Ecosystems

    Ironically that guy, David Latimer, has said in interviews hes apathetic towards the terrarium because he doesn't get to enjoy any blooms or textures or smells, its just a space-filler in the house he spins 180 degrees every week. Whats the saying, familiarity breeds contempt lol

    Just been absorbing sunlight, growing, decaying, producing oxygen and carbon dioxide in self-regulating balance since

    Ecosystems

    Sealed bottle terrariums are the smallest macro ecosystems I can think of. Like that English fella with the bottle he's had going since 1960, hasn't been opened since 1973 when he gave it a drink of water
