Thanks Arrg. Today I will be working on my boat outdrives but all the while I am waiting for an inspiration for the next steam punk idea to hit me in the head. :stupid: I can't start it until I know exactly what it is supposed to look like :rolleyes:

My new Anthius. If I have time I will go back and get the remaining 3 at the store. (Andy, they are different from my other one.) Here is a lousy video I just took https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tC33ZWfZqLY&feature=youtu.be

I think I could do that. But once you figure it out, wouldn't it be mundane to have those other ways to do it.

For most of these I purposely rusted the new pipes by first washing them to remove the oil, then I brushed on a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, vinegar and salt. That combination starts to rust metal immediately. After a while, like 2 hours, I dry them with a heat gun and spray them with a clear...

Yes, it's a feeder. That device is why my mandarins, pipefish, scooter bleenies and ruby red dragonettes all spawn. I wrote an article about it on Salt water Smarts, in my book and other places but I am not sure If I am allowed to link that here. But it is basically a container with a tube to...

Thanks, I was going for seriously awesome but sometimes come up with detritus. :confused: I am trying to design the next one, but so far I got nothing. :huh:

I added a couple of queen anthius a couple of days ago to keep my only one company. I can't say yet if they get along because I think they are different types of anthius. My old one has a yellow stripe under his dorsal and the new ones are all purple. I may airbrush them to see if they hang out...

I am very proud of this one. I just finished it. It has a long thin bulb and you turn it on by pulling down on the lead ball.

My tank doesn't seem to have suffered any damage to losing 5 gallons of water and me adding 5 gallons of cold, fresh water. The fish didn't even look up from their texting. I cleaned the glass so I could see them and they know I am home even though I know they like the Supermodel who feeds...

They harvest fat from your body using liposuction. Then they separate the stem cells from that and do some sort of magic that I don't quite understand. In 4 hours they infuse the stem cells back into you and also inject some up your nose and in any areas that you are having problems with like...

Yes we do.

Medical Visit to California This week I took my wife to La Jolla California for Stem Cell treatment for her Multiple Sclerosis. It is kind of an experimental treatment but we hope it works. Before the "visit" began we spoke to the nurses a few times there on the phone and they were so nice I...

Thanks guys. Altohombre, that drug Ocrevus was approved while we were in California. We have been waiting for it for a couple of years as we were following it's progress and wanted to get my wife on it as soon as it became available. Now we can't try it because it may damage the stem cells...

We just got back from Southern California a few minutes ago. I took my wife there for experimental stem cell treatment for her MS. We won't know if the treatment works for maybe 9 months but she feels great. We are very hopeful for the outcome of this as we heard some great stories from other...

Here is the porch as it is today. I have a planter over the broken steps until the cement dries. I also built that big rock in the foreground, it is hollow. When that Japanese red maple has leaves on it you can only see a portion of it.

Today my wife went to the drug store and as she went down the porch stairs I saw that a few of the bricks on the top step were loose. Great, now I need to fix that so my wife of the mail "Lady" don't break their neck. I put those bricks on there about 20 years ago and I didn't do a real great...

This new project is about half finished. It still needs the upper structure which will hold the "pull chain" that is coming from a hole in the bottle. That is not the correct bulb which will be a long thin one and it needs paint and antiquing. I think it will come out "interesting" if nothing...

I took a new video just now. I'm on a roll

And I appreciate your concerns Altohombre. :D Thank you for posting and you are correct. If one of these lamps caught fire, I would be in trouble, :eek: This is the light I built that is over my 6' long tank. The LEDs are mounted on copper tubing and it is a water cooled fixture with a...
