here is the tutorial for my bb gun that I converted to a single shot .22 pistol. This tutorial is for educational purposes only. Please check your local laws before doing this. I am not responsible for your decisions. You can find the 1/8" pipe at a plumbing store. Its really an easy mod to do. Never fire a homemade gun by hand until you test fire it remotely 5 times. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLmB_Zoz8OQ
I have a roof on the trike now, well, at least a roof frame anyway.
I am planning to put some kind of body panels on it but not really sure what kind. It's coming along slowly but it is getting there.

We didn't really do too much in this video. My family and I have been in quarantine for the past 2 weeks due to testing positive for Covid 19. We are able to get back out on the 10th so we will be right back at it. We already have the metal bought and it will be ready to pick up on Friday so we can get it all under roof. It was a little scary on the roof putting the wood strips down, but it is done now.
This tiny house is based on the Penobscot Cabin Plans from Simple Solar Homesteading. Here is a link to the website.

I still had a few more trees to cut up so I had to get this saw running better. I went ahead and took it apart and moved the temperature sensor a little bit away from the heat sink for the motor controller. What was happening was the temperature sensor was too sensitive and was cutting off the saw when the heat sink was just getting warm. By moving the sensor farther away from the heat sink it made the saw run continuously without cutting off.
I will not be showing what I did, but anyone that understands what I'm talking about could easily do this mod. You would just have to make sure and monitor the temperatures of the saw and the battery. These lithium batteries can actually catch on fire if they heat up too much.

We took the wind turbine up to the trail ride to test it out. I would call it a semi-successful test. It does produce 13 volts at a reasonable rpm but with a 75-watt load, it pulls down pretty hard. We really didn't have enough wind for the test, so I think if the wind speeds were up a little bit more it would have been fine. It will probably be able to put out over 13 volts at around 70 watts in a 12-15 mph wind. The charge controller will help to maximize the power if it ever comes in.

In this video, I show an easier solution to the problem with the Chinese diesel heaters.
BureckLLC sent me one of their CD thermostats to try out. It is great! it binds to the heater very easily and has many features that make living with the diesel heaters better.

Thought I would make a little slide show of fixing the old Lumina. My wife hit some water on the road and slid into the ditch. Luckily she wasn't hurt but the car got kind of beat up. I have a parts car the same color(besides the grey stripe on the bottom)so I took the parts from it and fixed it right back up.

Here is a little project I have been working on. It is a Bluetooth radio that is contained in the original AM radio enclosure. I pretty much gutted the old radio and added a Bluetooth reciever, pre amp, and amp. The AM radio of course no longer works but I can listen to my digital media from my cell phone through my trucks speakers. It also works as a hands free speaker. here is the video of the build https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfBbW7gJg5w the audio is pretty bad sorry.

In this video, I show the control system I am setting up for the Silverado. I used servos and servo testers to actuate the controls. It should work for what I need.
