Use used wood they said so i did...

There was a piece of a screw burried in the wood.
I saw the hole, tested it with a magnet, could not find anything.

The table saw found it for the price 47 eur.

@TheOneDoc @nixCraft I know, and I refuse to buy stuff above value.

  • And if it means my shitty Ex-ThinClient / Nettop will have to last another 5-10+ years then so be it!

The only winning move is to refuse to buy / pay!

  • And if it means I'll be dumpster diving (like I did as a teen) then so be it!

I mean, I did Desktop Conversions of broken Laptops in th past just to have something working at all…

   FollowerPower: Does anyone have the datasheets, pinouts and/or developer documentation for the following devices?

  • Motorola Iridium 9500
  • Motorola Iridium 9505
  • Iridium 9505A
  • Iridium 9522
  • Iridium Core 9523
  • Iridium 9555
  • Iridium 9575
  • Iridium 9575 PTT
  • Iridium 9602
  • Iridium 9603
  • Iridium 9604
  • Iridium 9704
  • Iridium DBL Interface / Port
    • It's Some cursed proprietary thing on an RJ-45 connector...

I'm about to get some of those and considering to setup a bounty to get these up and running...

  • There's like a crate of 9505 phones staring at me and all they miss are batteries, SIM cards, chargers and maybe some antennas.
    • Batteries are easy to source; worst-case gotta wire up some DC/DC adaptor to make it think it always got 3,8V or something...

And no, neither Motorola nor Iridium feel the need to make documentation available!

Starting on my truck-bed-to-shed conversion today. This will be the final location; I already have the bed leveled out on solid concrete blocks. Removed the top box covers, and took all my measurements.

Next step is to head inside and start modeling the wooden frame that will go on top of the bed. I'm planning on a 4' wide 6.5' tall single door and a peaked roof. Most of my building material will come from the pile of used 2x4s sitting in my yard; I'm going to see if I can find some old metal siding material to finish at least the roof.

The goal here is to have a syorage shed for "outdoor" stuff like yard tools, ice melt, potting soil, fuel, etc. I think this will work nicely!
