Weller 70w

Weller 70w Solder Kit

Weller Soldering Kit

Weller Tools

Needs must be had, time for a new Weller Soldering iron… with that in mind, the Weller 70w Solder Kit did just the trick. The Weller 70w Solider Kit.

What’s in the Kit? Kit includes the soldering iron, power unit, cord, tips, sponge and iron holder. It is a handy soldering kit/unit to have in and around the office. More recently, the need for more consistent power, temps and more specifically – a better all-around unit when comparing the unit to the original soldering iron/wood burning kit around the shop. Although the Weller 30w Kit purchased many years ago has been helpful, its woodburning capabilities have not been need. Again, for a hobby kit, woodburning and soldering, useful tool to have around… Most recently, ‘more power’ and ‘precision temps’ have been needed for a few items around the shop, for those of you who follow the 3d printer build, the Weller 70w was put to the test – rewiring and replacing thermistor wires, fan wires and hot end… I did again, test the Weller 70w unit on an old hack, the 9v cell battery hack and some car audio system wire for good measure. We will be soldering new wires into the guitar rebuild as well, new wires, connectors and more. Stay tuned for the guitar rebuild.

First impressions on the Weller 70w; immediate heat, responsive, handy housing and a few spare tips for smaller jobs. You’ve got to like the responsiveness… the tips are easy to clean, a handy sponge, a simple digitized interface for precise soldering temps and a clever housing coil to protect the heating element. An easy to use configuration to get what you need soldered; soldered.

Next, when comparing the kits I’ve used, Weller has been the brand of choice, again… I’ve not needed the soldering iron as much as you might think, but, when I do… Weller is the brand. The original Weller 30W Wood Burning or Hobby Soldering Kit has been all I’ve needed. From vintage train parts, drone boards/fans, home audio/home audio speakers, car audio wires e.g. battery wire, guitar wires, head unit power (blue wire), remote (yellow wire), hot and ground wires etc. Not sure that Weller 30w hobby kit was up for the job. Again, the 30w hobby unit got the job done, in a pinch.

Rebuild – In Progress, 2

Assembly & Direct Drive Rebuild, 2

Ender Part 2 Direct Drive

Labwork – Rebuild Part 2

A few steps forward now, we pick up with the bold on extruder assembly and assembly backplate here in part 2.

As noted in the previous build article, part 1, we pick up with the orginal backplate, reusing the backplate while adding in the new assembly hardware. Unfortunately, the new OEM plate was incompatible with the setup I have, so, we’ll harvest the new wheels, screws/tightening washers, bolts and spacers where I can. A quick fit, a dryfit of all the screws, spacers and wheels, placement of the bracket, probe (black, narrow plastic with probe), side fans (yellow and blue wires) and heating element (heater, heat sink and extruder).

The final fit, be sure to tighten down the wheel screws, fan, drive belts and extruder prior to placing the heating element. Order will matter here, same with the removal of the Bowden drive, brackets and extruder tube. We will harvest some of the old tube to help direct TPU filament into the new direct drive extruder. Finally, we place the extruder fan (red and black wires). At this point, you can unscrew the two top wheels in order to place the new direct drive platform, tighten down and snap in the carriage case (caution hot should be on top).

Next, the direct drive, clip on the tube provided, snip tube after a fitting or two. Do make sure, the fit is proper. The direct drive platform is screwed in from the backside of the plate, installed on the last step. Following a screw down action, you’ll need to connect the direct drive motor to the main ‘line’ by passing the frame platform where the old extruder motor lived (see last couple of images) and place the harvested tube for filament.

Easy right? Part 3 coming shortly, we will cover that tomorrow, we’ve got to replace the heating plate, power on the machine and change the step movement.

WiFi For Legacy Creality Devices

Creality WiFi Box

Creality WiFi Box

Tech | Tools – Creality WiFi Box 2

Need a boost, WiFi or Bluetooth connection for your Creality printer? How about the Creality WiFi Cloud Box 2.0?

Those of you who might be use to the idea of ‘airprint’, or print-over-wifi or can print on a WiFi/Bluetooth ready 3d printer, know how easy it is. It’s easy to sit down, run through your sketch or drawing export, send the slices to a printer via WiFi/Bluetooth, kick off a print via wifi/bluetooth sketch and print.

Before I go into the best case scenario, let’s cover the old school models. Like me, those of you, who utilize old printers, nano sd cards, usb 2 cords and swap nano SD cards and usb sticks. Those of you who might want to skip ‘the chair slide back-and-forth, switching usb dongles and nano cards’… again, it’s old school, it works, manual; yes…

Please note, we haven’t set up the Creality WiFi Box just yet. We will get something up here shortly, once the rebuild is complete ~give or take a week or two to wrap up the build. Rebuild pt 1 – Rebuild, install new drive, assembly and back plate. can be found here. While we are currently reconnecting the new assembly housing, heating element etc. Rebuild pt 2. start today or tomorrow.

With that being said, we’ll cover the Creality solution for older 3d printers, more specifically the Creality WiFi Box with the Ender 3 Neo Max.

Confirmed, URLs out…

An update on URLs (shortener); out. For time sake, we’ve Dropped the shortener code from production. If you want to use such a service, look into Tinyurl… the apps been around for awhile, those of you sharing links, swapping links etc, know most companies have some form of url ‘shortening’, whether that is Amazon or YouTube. Check out this short code via Amazon, scenario: College Kid, lookinhg for a tablet, tablet has been found and would like to share the finds with someone – a.co/d/dBwmxaK, pretty handy link… This is a sliver of the short code game, with a massive ecommerce site such as Amazon. Same for the YouTube share links… Anyhow, at some point, we will circle back to this topic and see if there is something worth investing in…

Quick Fix – Nano Mixer

Bloom’n Again, Mixer Back In Action

Tech | Tools – Frother Quick Fix

Quick Fix – Disassemble, Clean, New Batteries…

Quickly stir in sugar and milk, mix up your protein powders and fine particulates; all made easy with the Bloom mixer. I wanted to share a quick fix, as our nano mixer quit on us a few weeks back. Typically, the morning and afternoon espresso is ‘cut’ with a few granules of sugar and some half and half… as I get older, the trend has been ‘lighter and sweeter’… any how, here is the internal works of the mixer, teardown – a few screws, clean up, reset the metal prongs and a new set of batteries and we were back in business. Mixin’ up protein powder, scrambling eggs and espresso/coffee.

Just a note, be sure to keep the lower body (green structural plastic in the picture), keep that area dry if you can, there is a bit of a seal there… but better safe than dropping $20 – $40 on a new one. Again, here is the link for the Bloom variety, I think the mixer has been updated since date of purchase.

We’ve tried the ‘mini blenders’ like the Bullet’s, and the hand blenders, the top of the line per say, with the blenders… there are advantages to all, negatives as well. The Bloom’n mixer is nice for the small stuff, no need to plug anything in, or clean up pre-made cups etc. Magic Bullet style mixers were great for ‘bullet coffee’*. Never heard of bullet coffee, see below. Anyhow, there are a few of the nano/hand mixers on the market, Amazon will help you filter down and find the one that might make sense for your budget. Anyhow, I’ve included a few items below so that you can spin up your own ‘bullet coffee’, links included…

*Bullet Coffee – Full Fat Butter, Raw Coconut Oil, espresso/coffee of choice – Nespresso Pods – Tokyo Vivalto Lungo, a few spins of the mixers, done. In conclusion, I’ll probably post about espresso machines, more specifically the Nespresso machine. More to come. Thanks

Telescoping Magnetic Picker

Enbar. Need A Hand? Pick Up Metal Tools, Scrap, Nails and More

Enbar Magnetic Telescoping Tool

Tech | Tools – Working With Metal? How About Small Screws And Bolts? Need A Hand?

Need a hand? Pick up a Enbar magnetic telescoping ‘pick me up’ tool.

This particular Enbar tool has a small magnet, extending 7″ to 30″, handy to have around when you need a magnetic hand. While work on the Jeep, from time to time, a screw or bolt might find it’s way in an area where my fingers and arms simply can’t reach. Also, the fingers lack magnetism to pick up 1″ to 2.5″ bolts, tucked down in front framing tubes (recently ‘lost’ down in the front tubing area, when changing out the headlamps… recovered a star screw, multiple times; just wasn’t a good day to tinker on the Jeep). This is where the Enbar came/comes in handy.

I chose the mini without a light, the small No.1 Magnet Tool, there are a three others in the handheld tool in the lineup. Others range in size, while others have a small light to help in tight, dark areas. Check out the link, Enbar tool, if you’re looking for the same help in and around the shop or garage.

A handy tool for roughly ~$10 bucks*, depending on which model you choose. So, for as little as ~$10 bucks* for the smaller model sans mini light or ~$12 bucks* for the largest tool with a light, *rounding up for simplification. The Enbar Magnet tool just might be the tool to have around the house, the shop and/or the garage. Maybe a couple, one small, one large? You pick, you pick the right ‘pick me up’ tool for your needs. Don’t forget to leave a comment or share your experience online, if you do choose to purchase one of these tools. Helps drive that customer review rating (4.6 stars of 3,925 ratings as of 8/6/2023).

Tech | Tools – Email Support

Report A Bounceback Error

Those of you using Godaddy for hosting, check out the Report A Bouncebak Error mini site. Need to dig into a rejected or bounceback? Need more information from your hosting provider? This mini site comes in handy from time to time, especially when diagnosing returned email. Same for Hostgator folks, HostGator Bounceback Support or background.

Assuming you want to tackle bounceback messages on your own, be aware, raw source data will be required in order to further diagnose system errors/spam rejections. In order to do so, your local mail client – Outlook, Apple Mail, GMail etc will offer a ‘view’ in order to look at the header data on such a transmission (both those with successful sends and NOT successful sends). For example, those of you on MacOS – Open Mail => Find and Click Mail in Question, While mail in question is highlighted => Goto Vie w => Down to Message => Select either All Headers or Raw Source depending on what service is requesting. DIYer’s you can find online resources to troubleshoot this yourself, before you reach out to your hosting affiliate.

Report A Bouncback Error will ask for .EML files, once you have the messages headers or raw sources, you’ll want to save those in a readable format. Simply rename with requested file type. Simple right? If you can get to this point, most Tier 2 or Support centers can investigate email in question in greater detail. Although there is no standard SLA (Service Level Agreement) the timeframe was 12-24hrs depending on order of magnitude; most will respond within a few days, some a week, assuming limited or non-paid tech support.

Need to delete an account, permanently? Could be difficult, for some, the process might be virtually impossible.

Not sure how long Just Delete Me, but I’ve used it numerous times, more particularly late 2012 and late 2018. Sometimes you just need to purge your accounts, gain some sanity online. Also, think about how often you sign up for an account that goes dormant indefinitely. And furthermore, what about when you download a game i.e. Candy Crush, Crash Of Clans etc. and want to truly purge the data, account and interaction with that company? Start with JustDeleteMe. Although, there are many ways to perform this task, JustDeleteMe helps with them ALL! Notice the color palette (Difficulty Scale), the ability to perform the ‘deletion’ per say and help pages provided by your selected account or entity to purge. Give it a shot, get rid of your accounts! Great time to purge your accounts.

For the purposes of the post, we started down the path of deleting our Basecamp account. Enjoy!

FLUSH – DNS Cache

Flush System DNS CACHE, IP Address Wisdom And More

DNS Flush

Tech | Tools – More Reference Than Tool, MacOS Flush DNS Cache

A items to note, from time to time, you might need to flush… flush your DNS Cache, need to understand how your IP Address is acting and how to dump/secure/authorize computer code to start fresh.

Flush DNS Cache – MacOS
  • Plain text: sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder; say cache flushed
  • Or
  • 1. Command  + Spacebar
  • 2. Type Terminal, strike enter
  • 3. Select to Open ‘Mac Terminal Application’
  • 4. Type sudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder; say cache flushed, strike enter
  • 5. Terminal will request “Sudo” password, enter Sudo password, and strike enter
  • 6. Assuming the password given is correct, the system will state “Cache Flushed as indicated in the terminal command
  • 7. Command  + W to close Terminal window
  • 8. Strike Enter to close out window
Flush DNS Cache – Windows
  • 1. Ctrl + R Run Windows Terminal
  • 2. ipconfig /all directing the system to flush all. For more information, you can look up more information by inputting ipconfig?
  • 3. Assuming no superuser credentials needed, strike enter
  • 4. Terminal will confirm, all released and renewed
  • 5. Ctrl + W to close Terminal window

Although this post may be read as rudimentary, at it’s core, it is. However, the command is there, has been since the dawn of the internet, giving the user the ability to reset as the system is used. Similar Process for Windows, but this post will focus more on the need to flush MacOS DNS Cache. There’s a snippet/script there for your connection issues, specific to both MacOS and Windows for those of you who stumbled upon this post.

Experiencing lag? Also, before we take the dive, please understand, these terminal commands have been used for awhile, limited change over time. The only differences might be MacOS specific directing the system to ‘speak aloud – Cache flushed’ when command has been completed. Among other things, actions etc. Flushing the DNS cache just might be the trick for your Mac. What’s this DNS flushing business? We skipped the process to physically delete your local cache (not internet cache/cookies etc). I’ll post something about that as well.

So, flushing the DNS? Let’s start with the DNS – Domain Name Server… if you need more info on DNS, check out Cloudflare’s Definition of DNS, how it works etc. For the purposes of this post, the DNS communicates it’s(translates computer code) domain/domain name into ip addresses(computer web code via WhatIsMyIPAddress). Additionally, why is this important, DNS ultimately is what allows the web browser to load the internet/interwebs. That is the long and short of it, for far more information. Check out the Cloudflare article for more.

Here in a day or two, I will follow up with a post on WhatIsMyIPAddress… and deleting ‘local user cache’ files on your Mac. It will make more sense here in a few days, if you’ve not had a chance to troubleshoot your own computer issues specific to the internet, speed, lag and internet connections.

Schumacher 100Amp Charger/Starter

Schumacher SC1308 100/30/6/2

Schumacher Charger

Tech | Tool – Need A Jump

In the field, around the shop, need a jump? Give Schumacher a try… tremendous help in a pinch, supports longterm life and care for your car, marine or small atv/SxS batteries.

100 A engine start | 30 A boost | 6 <> 2 A charge/maintain for advanced diagnostic testing, engine starting and charging – Powerful enough for starting SUVs, trucks and large batteries – Battery and alternator tester ─ provides charge level and helps diagnose electrical problems – Digital display, LED indicators and button controls ─ for ease and accuracy – Microprocessor controlled ─ automatically adjusts the amperage rate to charge and maintain – Multi-stage charging for added precision, safety and battery life – Float mode monitoring ─ automatically maintains optimum battery charge – Auto voltage detection ─ 6 or 12 volt – Reverse hook-up protection ─ charger will not operate if clamps are reversed; LED will flash

Dare I say this, this charger never fails, each time the Jeep battery dies, prior to this last change out; this Schumacher Jumpstart box does the trick. Not to mention, we rewired a portion of the Jeeps wiring system running the car stereo, speakers, sub, amp and new lights. Like I said above, this charger kicks in a little more when needed; 100a engine start is a nice touch. Lastly, for the price over on Amazon $110.99(at time of posting) assuming pricing may vary of course, and this charger has saved be enough in batteries alone.

Next, the Schumacher keeps the extra batteries in storage charged, maintained and prepped for their next job. At some point, we will use these batteries for some lowfi, lowtech home ‘metal working’. Or in the case of running a quick fix on a trail locked Jeep or 4 Wheeler… Using batteries in series will maximize your ability to get the job done in any trail condition. For our test case, and the use of ‘metal working’ I mean we are going weld some stuff up around the house. Maybe scratch that old welding itch, and learn how to fabricate metal around the house. Again, the goal is to weld, novice welding using a ‘dc welding’ electrode for a metal patch, fixing a broken metal while at home; simulating the old ‘trail repair’. Or just to do a little at home welding. Check out ‘BleepinJeep’ for more information. I’ll post a quick video on the idea. “Welding with Jumper Cables and Car Batteries” via BleepinJeep.

Running dual sim cards(eSim) on a iPhone

Latest move on the mobile phone front, next month we will continue our iPhone 12 testing series while utilizing dual sims (one phone, two numbers), 1 onboard sim card and a new eSim (virtual). So far, so good. It’s not as burdensome per say to juggle two numbers on one phone vs, two phones, two separate OS. Nor exhausting to change between the two mobile singles, wifi etc etc… We want to try out the auto switch and manual switches between the two numbers, volume of calls and call clarity. Had some trouble with the Samsung G series signal moving between cities or town-to-town. Regardless, a few tips on utilizing dual sim cards – updates required iOS (15+ or higher), it states iOS 16 or + or combination of newer device and iOS.

While personally, making the move from Samsung down to an iPhone 8, updated/upgraded to iOS 15 and took down the latest software patches. Once those actions had been completed, a simple switch of the bluetooth, agreement of transfer and confirmation. Activation is required, when moving to that eSim, I think once converted then it can be moved accordingly. Don’ quote me on that, as we will prepare a separate series on the tweaks, changes and option in the upcoming months.

The LockPicking Lawyer

((Shout Out)) – LockPicking Lawyer

Tech | Tools – Latest From ‘The LockPicking Lawyer’

The LockPicking Lawyer remains high on the list of tubers I watch on a month-to-month basis. Sometimes weekly or even daily. Depends of course on how long it’s been since I last viewed videos produced by the LockPicking Lawyer.

Now, I’ve not seen all the videos just yet, but definitely worth a few videos before you get ‘hooked’. Opinion, The LockPicking Lawyer top of the list, as part of my list of lawyer content creators on the interwebs – Rekieta, Law of Self Defense, Outdoor Boys(Luke is now a full-time YouTuber), I believe he is no longer practicing, however, Luke was a DUI attorney in the VA/DC area).Starting with the LockPicking Lawyer, he covers just a ton of locksmithing stuff, tools – some self-made while others are industry standard, an in-depth lock analysis, an insiders look at locks, locking mechanisms, how-to and the ‘safety’ one might provide. The list goes on and on, which is why I wanted to cover his content first. May be we will roll out a ‘Law Content Creators’ series where we can cover the online phenomena of law-tube. For now, and with all intense and purposes, the LockPicking Lawyer, his shop – Covert Instruments and now adding nearly 18k subs on Rumble – LockPicking Lawyer.

We’ll keep this one short as the LockingPicking Lawyers offers hundreds if not thousands (1400), 2 – 3 min walkthroughs, product overview, the ‘action’ to bypass a locks defense, his takeaways/thoughts; a sharp, quick video with a purpose. To me, it’s still ‘magical’ like an illusionist, to watch him work. It’s like street magic, I recommend the ‘cut away’ videos. I’ll wrap the post with a comment on the cut away series(not a great teaser, as there is probably a better description for a detailed look at the internal structure of a lock), the LockPicking Lawyers offers an inside look at a locking mechanism by cutting away metal, housing or materials might contain the locking mechanism. Very cool. This helps to demystify the illusion and see the talent this guy has when ‘picking’ a lock. Also, check out the tools over on Covert Instruments, as mentioned above; very cool offerings.
