This weekend's project was building this homemade abolish synthesizer. I got the circuit from Synthrotek.com and used a found game set as my housing. Videos and whatnot on www.docpop.org
So....not much effort is required to produce a photoshoot that you actually like :) You should have fun at first place and one by one things start to happen. Although being not so outstanding, the photo still has some charming effect over me due to the smile of the model. Saying homemade fashion show, I mean that we actually didn't pay too much attention of finding the most fancy clothes or something or giving the perfect, serious and cold expression of the model which is normal for a fashion shoot. The most important point that I've been trying to reach is the expression of the model and the feeling that the same expression is not forced but natural. So following that direction of my thoughts, I think that she feels comfortable and having fun. I like her smile, her hair and the pose. I would appreciate and respect other opinions so don't be shy :)
My homemade lathe's live center tail stock setup as a taper jig. A rod is pressed into a bearing held into a recess of the tailstock by a washer and screws. The center is raised with furniture shims. Raising the lie center 1/8" above the drive center will result in a taper of 1/4" when shaved with a router.that rides the rails. The slot in the bottom collects dust via a vacuum hookup.
My homemade wired remote I made for my Rebel XTi. It's made entirely out of parts from Radio Shack and is MUCH cheaper than Canon's wired remote.
Project box $2.29
Switch $2.99
2x button = $4.58
Cable $5.49
Not shown: Right-Angle 3/32" Stereo Headset Plug, cat no. 274-298, $2.79
Wire + Solder = negligible cost.
Total = $18.14 if you have all the necessary tools (drill with 1/2" and 3/4" bits, soldering iron, screwdriver, needle-nose pliers may be needed for wire manipulation)
In contrast: Canon Remote Switch RS-60E3 = $30.00
I was shocked at just how simple it was to make homemade PB cups, and they're very addictive!

After watching the sparrows steal more than their share of my tabasco
peppers, I decided it was harvest time.
This is a 12 oz. olive oil bottle that came from the local Target,
stuffed with red, ripe tabascos with a little salt, a little dill and
a touch of rosemary. Once the bottle was filled, I boiled 3/4ths of a
cup of white vinegar and 1/4th cup of apple cider vinegar and poured
it in. This picture was made while the brew cooled on the countertop,
hence the little droplets of condensation on the inside of the neck.
It already smells pungent, but I'll let it steep for a couple of weeks
in the fridge for it to reach full strength and try it with a big pot
of mustard greens.
My grandma is always telling me about ways to use potatoes, as we have plenty around due to local store sales where they sell a 10lb bag of potatoes for a dollar.
With winters ringing in, soups are going to be a staple in my house. To make the base of my soups easily accessible, I make a big batch of stock and keep using it for my recipes. Here is how to make Best Vegetable Stock which is made by boiling a motley of veggies like celery, carrots, spring onion greens, garlic, capsicum et al in water along with olive oil and a few spices.
