The Intelligence - Day 51 - roller dial paint, switch plate bond
began sanding the roller dials for prime and paint
after all sanded I devised a way to hang em for spray
primed
painted whited
jumped around and broke stuff
a couple weeks ago I bought two sizes of quick disconnects, one for 14-16 awg, and one for 18-20 awg, of course I dont have the crimp tool, so I tested a plier crimp action on some scrap wire before attempting the real deal. after a good crushing with pliers and a good tug test, all seemed ok...
detour...
while at CVS this morning I grabbed a baby medicine dropper. I hoped they had glass but wasnt to be so the plastic one would have to do. I needed a better way of getting the IPS Weld On 3 into the syringe because pouring sucks major ass. If the thing was gonna melt no big deal...
got some neatly in the bottle and set it aside, along with the baby dropper. We'll come back to acrylic land shortly
/detour
back to wiring, so since my crimp (crush) thing was working I made the parallel circuit for the game switch 12v bulbs. stole some wire from this thing
everyone do the twist
several crushes and twists later and there we have the feeds for the 12v lamps in the switches
remember these? switch plate and its trim, time to bond them for ever more
lined up ready for action
capillary welded those suckers (after washing them off under luke warm water to remove dust and rouge debris) then stack some weight on them for about a half hour
30 mins later I wanted to see the switch plate in the opening
dont mind the dust, cat hair, and the cruddy cut-outs, that will all be cleaned and hidden by switch trims, and roller dial trim pieces
tomr I need to fabricate the rest of the roller dial face plates and mounting, and hopefully the 12v feed to the switch lamps. Also the psu venting needs assembly...
more tomr
thanks for watching
oh and the baby medicine dropper didnt melt (win)
