Well well well. Welly welly well. At long last, a solution to the tunnles problem. It's not quite as neat and compact as it could've been, but it can still be if my parts guy ever tracks down those 2 inch diameter connectors. Until then, thi...

The fact that there exist manned installations at the South Pole probably doesn't surprise you. It just isn't relevant to the average person's day to day...

I heard your righteous cries, my dudes, and have finally worked out an exercise wheel that generates power. What exactly such a small amount of power can be used for is still an open question. I've also attached the threaded gate valves to b...

I hear you! Webcam stream and exercise wheel generator! I've got the first up and running and I'm working on the second one. Lots of other cool stuff in this video, it's an eventful one despite the short length. I just didn't feel good today but r...

Not a lot to show this week, waiting on parts, acclimating the hammies to living in the same enclosure.

Found some fittings that match up with the threaded connectors on the new gate valve. They are not quite right for the tubing but I now have a lead on what part to get and where to get it, as well as something tangible to hand them when I as...

Still searching for the correct fittings. I've gotten closer but still need to find out what hose screws onto these threaded gate valves. If I can't find it I may just bite the bullet and order a 3D printer.

Minor setback with the modular tunnle system. Looks like we need detachable unions after all. TO AMAZON! Until then, enjoy this glimpse at my sweet ass eBike that I put together with crypto booty between 2016 and 2017. It's the hottest thing on tw...

More major progress on MegaHab construction! Whew, things are really moving along. Gotta keep the underwater hamster program on schedule, or the rats will pull ahead. We cannot allow an underwater rodent habitat gap!

By dumb luck it turns out I can partly disassemble the gate valves and mount them perfectly flush to the habitat wall without boring a huge messy hole, and thanks to included o-rings, possibly without needing silicone sealant except for where the ...

Pardon the lack of a video tonight. There's been a death in the family which has demanded my time and attention. There will be a new video in 3-7 days.
