I chuckled

I just showered. :)

But before that, I was outside helping my father carry i
n a load of wood (we use our fireplace during the winter to conserve oil) and I came across one piece with another piece coming off of it. So I pointed it at my brother like a gun, right? And he looked at me and said (very sarcastically) "Are you trying to shoot me with your wood?"

I put my head down and chuckled (for quite a while I might add).
Jeez his mind is like as dirty as mine lol. And hes only 14 >_>


So I spent most of today helping to tint windows. Even though we didn't make much progress cause it's really time consuming.
But we did put that fuel cell back together :)
I took photos


^ That is the membrane that separates the gasses. It's essentially what generates electricity. You can see that it's burned at the top. So clearly we were right about the bad ones :) (You also get to see my gloved hand :P)
^ That is the fuel cell (on its side) that we have taken apart. Yeah it looks pretty boring, oh well.^ And that is what it looks like once we put it back together.

We haven't tested to see if it works yet, the RTV still has to try and set and stuff. So we're gonna test it tomorrow I think. Hopefully it works :)


Last thing- I think one of my crowns is coming loose :( It feels weird and I first felt it when I was drinking tea on wednesday morning. But lo and behold, the dentist is on vacation this week. Just my luck :/
So I have an appointment with him on monday. Yeah I'm a bit worried because that tooth has been root canaled, and it's not supposed to have feeling, much less hot/cold sensitivity.

Anyway thats all I've got for right now.

hugs

Actually the fuel cell looks pretty cool. So futuristic! Good job. ^_^

That's smaller than I thought. How much electricity can it generate?

Jeremy said...

It's *supposed* to generate about 13 volts of electricity, but it was only generating 9 max before we took it apart, and even then the voltage would drop faster than normal cause of the holes in the membrane.
