I'm building a new pedalboard for my acoustic guitar work.

My old one was approaching 20 years of age and I wanted to get an easier layout which meant either adding a section to the old one or building a new one from scratch.

I began that yesterday.

I got the pedals set up and tested to ensure everything would be easily accessible and made some new cables and then proceeded to cut and glue the board and the riser together.

Next step will be to sand the glued seam flat so that the velcro material I glue on will have a good surface to bond to.

Basement half bath sink ( porcelain pedestal sink)   start cracking and coming apart.  I replaced it today.    One Problem the sink is 4 inches higher than the old sink.  So I needed new supply lines and the drain is now higher and further away from the wall   it is plumbing time
Did I say I hate plumbing with a passion?

Started out as a pile of 1” square tubes.  I suck at welding….. and not great at measuring, drilling or cutting…. But I’m happy with the results.

Running the wires through the tubes was fun.  Each light will be on a separate switch but that’s a job for another day.  I’m pooped


ETA:  I might not be a welder, cutter or measurer but I AM a pretty good electrician 😎. All lights work perfectly and run off separate switches and circuits.  I can run all 8 at the same time without popping any of the 10a fuses

Replaced a 17 year old Bosch dishwasher that still ran fantastic. The handle over the last year was getting very loose and finally one of the sides of the handle pulled out. I may have been able to somehow remove the inside stainless along with jeopardizing the electronics and rig the handle back on. Decided it was time to replace it with a Bosch 500 Series and found it on sale at Lowes for 849.00 vs 1099.00 regular price. This is how I spent a few hours on Easter Sunday.

Paint.

The house we just bought from a couple had their newborn's nursery in here for about 3 months.

It will be my guitar room.

2 coats painted so far.

The original color does not suit me.

After 2 coats, it still shows a little.

Have a couple more to hang but for now, everything has a home.

Minor project today was replacing the thermostat in the upstairs bedroom.   The original was working last spring when we turned the heat off.   When I turned in last week when the temp dropped to 28 degrees nothing happened.   After replacing the thermostat I found the the negative end of the battery box had completely corroded off.
