  1. Because the back side of the glider's instrument panel is so crowded, I have moved the vario speaker to the space under the turtle deck, aft of the wing spars.

    To make connections easier, I added some 3.5mm audio jacks and plugs to the speaker box and the long cable running aft. (2nd photo)

    The first photo shows one audio plug and two jacks. What's up with that?

    The standalone vario has an audio output, and the glide computer also has an audio output. They use different styles of sound, programmable with slightly different parameters. Now I can more easily choose and change which audio output I want to use.

    This should end my soldering work. Tomorrow I'll be working on (third photo) all the pneumatic connections from the three pressure probes: pitot, static, and total energy...to all the flight instruments that need these pressure signals.

  2. Installing and connecting various glider instruments and avionics.

    Electric wires are involved, and also pneumatic tubing.

    This is the wiring harness for the transponder. The control head, to be mounted on the instrument panel, is already connected to the wiring harness. Two other electronic units will be connected to the harness: the transponder, and a precision GPS receiver that provides position information that will be part of the transponder messages.

    The red and black wires are for 12VDC power. They will get connected to a 3 amp circuit breaker.

    The controller head has a blue pneumatic tube that will be connected to the static probe...so that altitude can be reported in the transponder messages.

    The small light gray box, with two pneumatic ports is the squat switch...to change transponder modes between 'on the ground' and 'airborne.'

  4. Noah Sheidlower's piece about NYC's first subway is fascinating - a pneumatic tunnel below Broadway that used air pressure to transport passengers in the 1870s. New York experimented with this technology decades before the current subway system.. Amazing to imagine passengers being whooshed through a tunnel by compressed air. #NYC #subway #history #transportation #pneumatic #innovation #broadway #untappedny untappedcities.com/nycs-first-

  10. Is the #Rapture in the Sky or on Earth?

    #NewTestament: #1Thessalonians 4:14–18. While many modern #Christians imagine the "Rapture" as being taken into #heaven forever, Paul had a very different—and far more cosmic—view. Drawing on #Greek and #Romanphilosophy, especially #MiddlePlatonism and #Stoicism, Paul describes spiritual (#pneumatic) bodies, #atmospheric levels, and even an invisible, #divine substance animating #creation.

  15. Just used a palm nailer for the first time and…woah! 🤯

    Combined with a portable compressor, it makes attaching joist hangers and other connectors so much faster. Just done a couple hundred nails in no time. With a hammer, my arm would be aching by now with all that awkward, overhead nailing.
