Ghetto Mods

[infrared]

I was mulling over an idea to use a water-water heat exchanger and use the heat of my cpu/gpus to help warm a hot tub. I fired up nicehash quickly and the 1080Ti was roughly using £1 of electric to mine £3 worth of Btc. So I'd be generating money while using the heat generated to save on hot tub heating cost lol. Maybe if I had enough GPU's I could heat the hot tub entirely. And then the next step would be to stop/start or throttle the gpus when it's up to temperature. This would be a platinum tripple efficient setup

I like the idea with the ducting caps! I used to do similar, but pulling cold air in from outside, straight onto the cpu cooler. That was back in the early 775 days with my P4-640 The flower pot idea is brilliant tho, I'll have to remember that.

It's an enticing idea or Notion to consider what you could do to make the most out of certain situations. Like a battery cell in your trunk that collected energy generated by applying your brakes ,or some other means of making the most out of spinning wheels. The same could be said for a tiny water wheel ,inside of a pipe & when you turned your faucet on ,it would spin and generate a minute amount of electricity ,to be stored in the cell somewhere else to be used later.(obviously implementation would be the issue)

But if I were to implement half of the ideas I had in my mind ,my home would look like a Dr. Seuss cartoon. With an electronic SnubbleyDawhomper, & helfinswebble poopingribbler syntheizer.

Stand aside rube goldberg.

You can warm up a room with just a few candles like these. Lesser chance of accidents.

Whoops.....needed a ghetto solution to stem the bleeding.

Fuck knows what im going to do all day now.

Nice, make a butterfly bandage

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

i was thinking of using a sling as a leverage tool to get my son to saw and chop logs so i dont have to do it today.

 

[natr0n]

I have a lot of these been using for about a year now that got adhesive and thick. You cut away the hole part and get hardcore mouse feet.
Those store display tabs

 

[FireFox]

You can get heat shrink of ebay for about $1,30 per 5meters, get the 2 right sizes and it be looking real nice .

Just saying.

But then it's not going to be a ghetto Mod

@CAPSLOCKSTUCK Painter's tape. Get a small piece and center it inside a bigger piece so the sticky doesn't touch the wound and tape your finger up. I do it at work all the time and it holds pretty well.

 

[P4-630]

Not my video but it works well.

 

[CAPSLOCKSTUCK]

I don't know if this counts as a "ghetto mod", but this is my quick-built test bench. Very neat, isn't it?
