Creating a 'solid wall' in a GH for attching various widgets
Comments (2)Greenhouser: Until I replace my digital camera, I'll have to try to paint a verbal picture. Think of the vertical aluminum supports, (or polybars) in a GH as wall studs, except there is nothing between them but sheets of polycarbonate. Ergo, the only surface to which you can attach anything on the walls are the polybars, and to do that, presuming they have the usual channels; you need hex or T bolts. But your "wall" surface is still only a few inches wide, and each 2 inch wide bit of it, is about 2 ft. apart. So- you lay a board across them horizontally, attaching it to the polybars, and the result is a solid "wall" as wide as you want it and as high, top to bottom, as the width of the board. As I will be using one entire side of my GH for fish tanks, and it's a bit over 16 ft. long, we used 2- 8 ft. boards. It presents enough solid surface to give me space to attach water and air lines, and hang some bits and pieces of small items on it, yet doesn't present so much of a solid, opaque area as to affect the light coming into the GH. The boards are, as I have already described them, just standard sized 1 X 6's, but solid vinyl instead of wood. Does that help?...See MoreWhat are and how do you use widgets?
Comments (11)no measurement is same but it is easily visible right on my desktop with out having to do any keystrokes to get to view the info, also if you have a problem with some program that starts using high cpu having the widget float on top lets you have a constant view to watch, I just personally like the ease. the sticky note ones are yes the electronic equivalent to the yellow sticky notes and are quite helpful especially in my old age LOL I like the clock because I can have a nice big one that I can see very easily and I also have a calendar one I use quite a lot looks just like a regular paper calendar on my desktop saves me having to go digging for mine. Really they are just little convenience items. Some allow you to play music, view video, play games etc. One thing I like about my linux desktop is that I can add little extras right to my bottom task bar including a cpu and memory meter, weather, aquarium, which you can see down there in my snapshot of my desktop click to enlarge....See MoreHelp! Can you track a lost iPhone?
Comments (16)Akpparently this won't help you, but this is my DD's recent email: "This is why technology is awesome: I lost my phone at a concert last night. As soon as I knew it was gone, I started calling it. Whoever had it was not answering. I set it to "lost phone mode" from a friend's phone, which sent a display message to my phone saying that it was lost and giving a contact number to reach me. This morning I used the Find My iPhone app, which pinned it to a house in Littleton, giving me an address and a map. After I filed a police report online, I called the Littleton police, who went to the house (which turned out to be a duplex, but Find My iPhone was pretty specific, pinning my phone's location to the northern unit in the building. I took a screen shot of map and texted it to the officer.). So the cops walked into the apartment and let the ladies living there know that they'd tracked a stolen phone to their house. There was some go-around, but after they were told that a stolen phone carried a grand larceny charge (which actually isn't true, the cop was bluffing), they managed to find the phone and give it to the officer. So I got my phone back and didn't have to drop $400 at the Verizon store"!...See MoreNeed a laugh? Try widgets
Comments (16)Did you see the $2M Christopher Peacock kitchen in the latest issue of Outrageous Kitchens? OMG, it had not one,not two, but THREE sterling silver widgets that were inset with pearls and rubies!!! I can only imagine how those babies quinckle! You MUST get that issue and drool away. Just one word of caution though -- as you salivate over that kitchen and those widgets, you could end up feeling as if your own remodel project that you have working on for your entire life is just so not "there." Don't! You can still have your own too-die-for kitchen with just one standard, yellow, squishy widget. In fact, I remember seeing that in one of kitchens on the FKB (sorry, I don't remember who) and thinking, "way to go!" We can't all be Peacocks. Nor should we. Do your own widget thing!...See More- last year
