Outdoor Furniture
Posted by Dave Eddy on May 30 2016 - tags: diyI built 4 chairs to make an outdoor sectional couch, as well as a table for my patio. I used modified plans from Ana White for the sectional, and made the chair design up as I went along.

Garage Sale Piece
Posted by Dave Eddy on May 11 2016 - tags: diyI salvaged this piece from a garage sale. It was originally (no pics, sorry!) a gold color with glass circles. I spray painted it to a darker color, and cut out 1x12 pieces of pine to circles, burned them, and stained them dark to make a fancier looking piece.

Raspberry Pi Magic Mirror
Posted by Dave Eddy on Apr 25 2016 - tags: diyMike showed magic mirrors originally (https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/magic-mirror/). I had a raspberry pi lying around from a failed project, so I figured why not give it a try… how hard could it be?
My mirror shows the time, the weather, the state of my garage door (open or close), and the last 5 pushover notifications I have received.
