YetAnotherProject, shoved the engine in today, but I think no more while the family are home, gotta do dad things and the 5 year olds can't weld yet.

What about everyone else? how are your winter projects going?

Oooh, pretty!

I don't have a motorcycle (I just want one) but I'm currently trying to make another watering can out of recycled plastic junk. The last one was pretty straight forward and I'm pretty happy with it. This one seems like it'll be harder to get the adhesive to hold well enough, so I need to figure out a way to support the spout and make the glueup work as well as possible

The last one, made with a milk jug and Gatorade bottle

I skimmed, then though how did you stick those plastics together? then read it lol.

I would use the gatorade screw on cap to clamp it to the milk bottle

[-] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Lol, I considered that! I ended up instead using the little indent where the collar that breaks of from the cap goes, and cutting off the threads, that way the threads on the inside dont block the water flowing into the shower head
