Bass Guitar: Done the Fretless Project! Well for now...
http://onlyjus-bass.blogspot.com/2010/03/done-fretless-project-well-for-now.html
The purpose of this blog is to document and share to the world my bass guitar mods. Thursday, March 25, 2010. Done the Fretless Project! Over the past couple days I have been sealing and sanding. I think I ended up doing 5 coats of the minwax and sanded the final coat up to 800 grit. I have reassembled and cleaned my now fretless 5 string fender deluxe jazz bass! It might not be the prettiest but the sound is kick ass! I'll have to find my recording equipment so I can post a sound sample, maybe a video.

Python for Photographers: Image Stacking: Averaging
http://onlyjus-photopy.blogspot.com/2012/09/image-stacking.html
Tuesday, September 25, 2012. Image stacking using python is fast, efficient, and allows for custom filtering during the stacking process. Why would you want to stack images? So, how do we do this in python? Essentially the easiest stacking is to simply add up all the pixel values for all the desired images, and divide by the number of images, creating an average image. Building on our knowledge of PIL. We can write a script starting with importing the required libraries:. First = True for img in imgList:.

DIY CNC: March 2011
http://onlyjus-cnc.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
This blog has been created to document my DIY CNC machine so that others can do it too! Thursday, March 17, 2011. I managed to mount the stepper motor for the X axis and connect it to the lead screw with the flex couplings I got off eBay. After running the X axis back and forth and running through the EMC2 default G-code, I realized that I am going to need bearings to keep the nylon sheet from lifting off the rails. So, I built two bearings. Two bearings on the underside, catercorner to each other. Core ...

DIY CNC: Z axis almost done!
http://onlyjus-cnc.blogspot.com/2011/12/z-axis-almost-done.html
This blog has been created to document my DIY CNC machine so that others can do it too! Thursday, December 15, 2011. Z axis almost done! I have not posted in a while, but I have been making progress! The lead screws fit the skate board bearings nicely so I decided to cut two ends with pockets for the skateboard bearings. I had to play with the tolerances to get a nice press fit of the bearing into the ends. The ends turned out really nice! So that I can use 1/4" end-mills and have more power!

Bass Guitar: Sanding, Sealing
http://onlyjus-bass.blogspot.com/2010/03/sanding-sealing.html
The purpose of this blog is to document and share to the world my bass guitar mods. Thursday, March 18, 2010. Today I finished sanding the neck and the sides were some of the super glue dripped. I also learned that a "thin" super glue works better then the regular superglue. The thin superglue takes advantage of capillary action to literally be sucked into tight areas and penetrate sawdust better. After sanding with 400 grit sand paper and cleaning with a wet rag. Close up after first coat.

Cigar Box Guitar: CBG#2
http://onlyjus-cbg.blogspot.com/2010/09/cbg2.html
The purpose of this blog is to describe my cigar box guitar travels. Tuesday, September 7, 2010. I just finished my second Cigar Box Guitar build and it turned out better then my first one. I took an acoustic guitar approach for this one. I used a 24 9/16" Gibson scale. The neck is made of oak. This time I did not use fiberglass to stiffen the neck as I did in my first CBG build. I glued popular to the side of the headstock and routed the edge with my dremel. I decided to pass the strings through the cig...

Project SkimBoard: Isolation Chamber
http://onlyjus-projectskimboard.blogspot.com/2009/08/isolation-chamber.html
The purpose of this blog is to document the construction of a foam core composite skim board. Monday, August 31, 2009. I am currently in the process of building a chamber out of Plexiglas so that I can cut and sand the fiberglass composite without it going all over my apartment or in my lungs. Here is the current progress. Hopefully when I get this done I can continue my work on the skim board. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Core i5 Computer Build. View my complete profile.

Project SkimBoard: Composite Stringer
http://onlyjus-projectskimboard.blogspot.com/2009/08/composite-stringer.html
The purpose of this blog is to document the construction of a foam core composite skim board. Monday, August 24, 2009. To glass the foam;. Cut the desired amount of fiberglass. Mixed an estimated amount of two part epoxy. Layed the fiberglass on the foam. Massaged the epoxy into the cloth (using latex gloves). Squeezed out the extra epoxy (using latex gloves). Laid wax paper on the epoxy/fiberglass surface (epoxy does not stick to wax paper). Finally putting those textbooks to some use!
