Yes, but I had it too far away and in a basement, so dont use that as a test of quality.

That’s because the two sides weren’t braced to the stand yet when I made this. They are braced now and there is absolutely no wobble to the framing and it is very strong. I expect the actualy canopy part to sway some just because it is hung down by two strings, but that can easliy be stopped with your hand. Also, it’s connected to the strings by a double ended clip. I used this because I couldn;t find the much better looking S hooks that I purchased. These are more reliable anyways.

Well here’s a build that Tom’s Hardware did a few months back for under $500… with recent price drops it will cost less nowadays- plus you can choose a less expensive case, and use the standard fan/heatsink instead of putting another $30 into the Cooler Master like they did.

My sister tiled behind her oven hob with cheap tiles and about 2 spots of tile adhesive. imagine her surprise when a tile fell off and cracked her new ceramic £700 hob for the sake of not putting on £2 of adhesive

Comment on Is there a DIY way to fix a small portion of ceiling in room? by oldcrankyman

No point in fixing the ceiling until you make the roof stop leaking.

Sweet vid. I’m currently a total lighting disastoid. This was helpful. There’s another vid on here where a guy puts parchment over a shop light to diffuse it which seemed to work pretty good. Parchment won’t burn up seeing ya stick it ovens.
Thanks again
