That sucks hombre! Sounds like an interesting project.

Similar note: The airport now has an actual waiting bay and it's free for 20 min. To prevent people going in and leaving after 15 min and coming straight back, there's a camera that snaps your number plate as you enter. Interesting tech.

sick belly, need to be near amenities, lol.

nerdy stuff is an EtherTen board(arduino variant) setting it up and programming it to be a car counter for a driveway, but will ignore exiting cars, and ignore pedestians, while triggering a PTZ camera to pause its patrol, and swing around to capture the number plate of the entering car.

wait whats this ignore pedestrians so no upskirts pics?

I forgot to say that the counter once up and running, will be viewable from a web browser to see how many cars have entered that day, that year, and how many spaces are left

Nicely done. Sounds like some nifty engineering ther.

So jelly. I wish my job involved jet setting to Japan and getting to drive sexy JDM cars (she can keep that rental-Yuck!). I'd come back 10kgs heavier from all that awesome Asian food and trying to tell the gate staff that the 34 cat back system I have stuffed down my shirt is actually a very high tech spinal brace.

Thats ok im a great replacement

I dunno if my 34 ('The Ark') would like that very much. There is a single blonde Silvia driver in Victoria ;)

Milk bar is a term in some parts of Australia for suburban local shops or general stores. They are known as tuck shops, delicatessens or delis in South Australia and Western Australia, and as corner stores in Queensland and New South Wales. Milk bars are traditionally a place where people pick up milk and newspapers, and where school children purchase milkshakes or lollies.

they also used the term back in the 40-60s in the us, and here for the shops that sold milk shakes.

these were a local hangout/past time for youth.

I have also used the term for local take away shops that sell hamburgers and chips, etc.

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
