• Neverending Story: Upcoming Projects 😍

  #home automation #electricity #water #project Dream #Arduino Shelli #Netlify #edge computing

  It’s important not to become unemployed, so there’s always something in the back of my mind that could be improved. Some people actually think that’s fun 😄 Here’s a list of things I’ll never finish, but that I hope to get started on in the coming months. I just need to renovate the house first, catch up on some online courses, and become a better person, and then I’ll probably get it done 😶(The seas)

• 2024: Freediving for Freedom

  #latergram

  After talking to the last people who rented the cabin, I realized that quite a few people actually find it kind of fun to read about the technical stuff we do, and I see that I’ve actually forgotten to write anything about one of the bigger infrastructure upgrades I’ve done recently. So I’ve put together aA short photo story in Google Photosfrom the transport of pumps by snowmobile in the winter of 2024 to the full operation of the heat cables with pumping on November 30, 2024.

• Two steps back

  #water #wall #winter operations #maintenance

  I was just supposed to go out for a quick trip with Fredrik to fill up on diesel and water before winter, but I had to come back empty-handed. The Wallas won’t start, and the water pump is broken. On top of that, someone had forgotten to drain the water from the faucets and put antifreeze in the drains, so things were a bit tense this time.

• The Boat Hunt

  #boat #water #rental

  An unfortunate renter forgot to secure the boat properly, and both the boat and the oars disappeared when the water level rose due to the heavy rains at the end of August. I had to go out, and after a couple of hours of searching, I found the boat at the north end of the lake. I was lucky enough that Erling Lüder-Larsen at Holmevassetra had found and pulled the boat ashore. I found one oar in Sætervika, but the other seems to have disappeared down the Åselva river system. All in all, this turned out very well, even though the boat isn’t getting any prettier with all these mishaps. Luckily, I bought it knowing it might take a bit of a beating :)

• Laboratory results for pH levels in fishing waters

  The results from VestfoldLab regarding water quality in the various lakes of the Åselva watershed are now in. The samples were collected in September 2022 and analyzed in November.

• The water problem is fixed!

  #water #pipe #maintenance

  I went up to the cabin with a plumber today and got the water problem fixed! It turned out there was a cracked pipe that was causing the pump to suck in “false air.” It must have expanded over the winter, but it must have been there for years. As soon as we replaced the pipe, the faucet started working again right away! No more waiting or trouble. This bodes well :-)

• Lots of repairs, but the door and water supply are broken :-/
