  • Finished the heating duct. Conclusion, do not move heat by air from a stove. It goes too slowly… I was disappointed on the heat gain. If you ever want to move heat, sigh, use water for more heatcontent to be moved.

    I read your projects and see much ambition. Although it cost a lot of time, keep up the good work!


  • Well, I was working on laying a 4in isolated flexible airpipe to go from the first floor, through an airshaft aside the chimney down to the first floor to heat the ground floor with the stove on the first.floor (our living and bed room). Bought a thermal camera to see results (and winter optimization) but nothing happened. Turned out the pipe had ruptured inside the air duct. Now have to redo the work… At least I do not have to finish it tomorrow


  • Nice question to ask. As usual too many projects to cover in this short time 😁.

    Closing the lower part of the serre for the winter upcoming. Creating a hatch out of too small hinges but these were available. Also made a rack under there to place the double winter windows which are exchanged in the winter for muskito windows from the summer. Working with wood is very fun.

    I am also working on making a small duct to displace heat generated by stove on the first floor to the groundfloor. Have some difficulties finding a right thermostat that turns on over a certain temperature. Unfortunately photo upload is not working for me ATM otherwise I would have shared.






  • I do not know about drone shows… arguments posted here are good on ratio, like polluting and the type of ppls involved. But I must confess that all the drone shows I have seen I found quite plain to be honest. Fireworks do still offer more for the senses. Beside the visual, the sound of fireworks is so much more diverse then only the bzzzz of a group bees. The sound delay from fireworks gives much more tension/excitement. The smell is something I also like somehow. All the senses get a bit more to handle which is interesting to watch/listen/smell fireworks.

    I think drone shows could learn from that and be way better by combining drones with picoprojectors or combining a lasershow with smoke blasts. Or combine also some fireworks with drones. Maybe place subwoofers on drones and create a sound pallet. There is enough combinations to think of as long as there is some spark.

    Aside the droneshow firework show, I totally agree on blocking the egocentric people that blast away with fireworks during a random night or towards people
