By Martin J

Just hanging out in my workshop, doing a bit of bike maintenance and perhaps a bit of electronics lightning works in a treasure chest if I get the parts. I will probably be testing a different streaming setup, it might all to horribly wrong.

Cheap Remote Controlled Switch for DIY project $6-$15

By Martin J

I have purchased a remote controlled switch, running on 12v, capable of switching up to 250v(if you dare). It has 5 remotes included. Maybe for a Halloween project or something else.

By Martin J

Going through a selection of spare parts for pinball machines, since we have to #stayhome why not have a look at them #withme.

Fallout 76

I have played Fallout for many years, not everything has been on YouTube. At the moment of writing, I am playing Fallout 76. Mostly in Co-Op mode with Josh from Florida. The time difference and the distance are an issue but we try to get it to work. Whenever we can find the time, we are playing and streaming here on my channel. In the beginning we had a lot of issues as we learned how to get it to work. Also the internet sometimes acts up, I am blaming the distance between Florida and Denmark.
