Home made swamp cooler for about $115.
Summer is coming and I need an additional swamp cooler for the warm greenhouse which on a 95F day tops way over 100F. I decided to build my own, here are the components needed:
1) Attic exhaust fan, HD $70
2) 110V to 24V transformer, Grainger $15
3) Electric (24V) sprinkler system valve HD $15
4) 3 Misting nozzles Charley's Greenhouse $15
5) Plywood, 2 x 4s and some PVC pipe
The attic fan has a thermostat. Electricity comes from the source to the thermostat which I set at 85F. From the thermostat it goes to the fan, I spliced into that line and sent one leg to the 110V/24V transformer. From there it goes to the 24V valve which in turn feeds the 3 misting nozzles. A rectangular box is built out of plywood and 2 x 4s, open at both ends. The exhaust fan sits in one end blowing air into the 2' x 2' x 4' box. Air comes from the outside of the greenhouse. The misting nozzles are on the inside just next to the fan. The other end of the box opens inside the greenhouse. The roof of the box slants down a little.
The thermostat needs to sit inside the greenhouse. That's the temperature we want to control. You can see that the line from the thermostat to the fan is only about 1' long. I'll cut that and make it 10' long as I want the thermostat to sit in the middle of the greenhouse close to the roof. That's where it gets the hottest. When it reaches 85F (inside the GH, not outside in the backyard) the fan goes on and the valve opens up to city water which feeds the nozzles. Moist cool air rushes into the greenhouse. The entire contraption sits on the ground and the roof slants down so that any unevaporated water ends up in the gravel instead of causing a grey film on the leaves.
The nozzles will clog with calcium and need to be cleaned every 6 month or so depending on the hardness of your water. They need to be placed in an accessible location with unions so the can be removed for cleaning.
Joe Parker from the Pleurothallis Alliance in San Francisco showed me the one he built, I built one last year for the cold greenhouse which works beautifully. Instead of buying a swamp cooler, I decided to build another one of these things, much cheaper and works just as well.
Here is a picture of the components, except the wood and the PVC pipe. You can follow the flow of electricity from the extreme right of the picture to it's targets. The only other thing missing is the motivation to slap it all together. Maybe that will come later today ----- or tomorrow ----- or the next day. Right now, a glass of wine, some cheese and catching some rays is in order. Its nice to be retired.
The cheese/wine combination motivated me and I built the thing. It can easily be done in an afternoon if you have all the parts ready. It's sitting under a bench belching cool moist air into the warm greenhouse. It was not needed today, but the day will come when it will be very much appreciated.
can we see the pic of the connected working thing?
i've heard of swamp coolers in greenhouses in fl - and was wondering what they were.
now i know! this can be very handy in a lot of places - i am taking notes for the future :).
looks fairly easy jane! bet, you can do it too!
It's under a bench so I can't take a picture right now but I'm going to pull it out as 3 nozzles seem to be too much and I will reduce it to 2. I will take a picture then and post it.
This kind of gizmo works on the cooling effect of water evaporating. It does best in a low humidity environment which is why you pull warm, dry air from the outside rather than treat the humid air inside the greenhouse. It does not work well, or even work at all, in a high humidity situation. In Florida with the high humidity this thing would do poorly and is not recommended.
It uses much less electricity than an air conditioner so homeowners prefer it as it costs considerable less to stay comfortable than air conditioning. Yet in SOCAL you never see them close to the coast but they start popping up on the roofs of houses as you move inland. None visible in Long Beach, every house has one on the roof in Barstow (60 miles inland) where it is hot and dry. This is because of the coastal humidity which defeats it.
Great, I love conversions. The next time the Mormons come calling I'll tell them "Eat your heart out, I converted someone" .Keep in mind it is not the same as a swamp cooler. Both produce cool air but in the swamp cooler the water percolates thorough mesh and only cool air enters the greenhouse. With this thing tiny water droplets are part of the offering. I direct it to the ground so that any unevaporated water stays there. Hence sloping the roof a little downwards to the exit end.
I have had one in operation for a year and there is no evidence of grey residue on the leaves. The plants should not get wet in it's vicinity otherwise you'll experience the grey film. The ground in front of it is pretty wet but the plants on the bench above are not. I know someone in Palo Alto who uses only this for cooling and recommends it as I do.
If it's used often, the wood stays constantly wet so it will deteriorate over the years. It's easily replaced and if it develops a leak no problem, it's not in the living room. I also cover the entry with chicken wire, don't want possum hamburger.
Good luck. I should have some more pictures tomorrow as I feel a surge of motivation coming on to remove one of the misters.
A view of the mechanical set up. The 110v comes from one of the brown lines and feeds the fan with the other brown line. There is a branch which goes to the 110V/24V transformer on the right. From there it goes to the 24V sprinkler nozzle which turns on the water the same time the fan goes on. The top has a 6" overhang which will keep all this dry. Water comes in from the right and goes to the misters inside the box.
Don't forget the 'Sun visor' or slant the roof. In any case make sure the plants don't get misted otherwise they'll get a grey film in time. Keeping the unevaporated water on the ground prevents that. The wood stays wet all the time and probably will fall apart somewhere between 5 and 10 years. I know of some one who built one out of plastic and fiberglass materials.
Can't take a picture of it but this thing is blasting out a stream of cool air that is just as good or better than any swamp cooler.
Das is alles, good luck building it.

Paint Suggestions for 3 Year Old Girl's Room
My daughter's new room will have bright and lighter pink accessories, with the bedding below. Furniture will be white. I think I want to paint the walls a shade of greige. I will probably end up doing some type of wall decal for decor, so want to keep the walls rather basic but still interesting, and still contrast against the white furniture. But appropriate for a 3 year old. Any suggestions on a color? Thanks in advance.
I think the greige sounds good but as to specific color the best thing to do is to grab a bunch of paint swatches and look at them in the actual room. With colors like that the daylighting and nightlighting the room gets are really going to affect the choice.
I think you will get more mileage out of your greige choice as a neutral backdrop than you would a typical "girl color" . If at 4-1/2 she suddenly hates pink, you could easily shift gears without repainting.
I have the same bedding (sheets) from Land of Nod. I paired it with BM Nimbus in my daughter's room. It's leans more gray than beige, but it goes well with the bedding.

Need Ideas
I have come across about 100 1/4 inch thick fiberglass rods 12' long. I can get many more shorter pieces. Does anyone have any ideas for using these? I've thought of plant supports, lattice, fence panels, etc. I am looking for some idea that is really funky. Any ideas?
how about the salt & pepper shaker idea -- mount them on top and use them to edge a bed? or a paint them different colors and make a funky sculpture?
Are they clear or opaque? If they were clear you might be able to use them like fiber optics.
12 feet long and a quarter inch thick. Do they bend real easy? Do you have a picture of them?
Use to make large hoops to create shade for plants by covering with landscaping fabric, may need center support.
Use as hoops, again, by sticking ends in ground and have a very large ball and you could play croquet, etc. Can you imagine all the hoops you could have all over the yard. Also great fun for grandchildren to run through. Tents as well.
Or get really creative and grout them to the bathroom wall, light would reflect and look like mirrored walls.
Okay my imagination is running wild. Let me think on it.
!. You cannot bend fiberglas too much.
2. If you work with them, make sure you ware gloves. Some fiberglass rods will make you crazy itchy.
3. You may sell them for a very good price on eBay, use the money to buy Lucite rods which you can bend, glue, "fiber glass" optic light fixtures -----.

Collector Car Audio
Auto Radio, Auto Audio, for antique and vintage vehicles!
You own a classic vehicle. After spending considerable time and money, you're ready for a nice sound system. What do you choose?
Hacksaw your dashboard to fit whatever you dragged home from the store?
Stuff a stereo in the glove compartment where it's unreachable?
Settle for a tired AM radio that can't receive your favorite station?
Why settle for less when GREAT options are available? For starters we can put a modern AM/FM Stereo INSIDE YOUR RADIO! Controls, presets, even the Rotomatic, Wonderbar, Town & Country, or Electro-Touch features will work as before. Is Bluetooth available? Yes! USB? Yes! Best of all, these products (Aurora Design) come straight from Detroit and are built to automotive standards in automotive plants.
If you're on a budget, or like digital displays and features, the new line of Custom Autosound stereos is their best ever! Prices start at only $159, and you won't have to cut your dash!
Of course we also carry innovative speakers designed to fit in older cars which simply weren't made for stereos.
Whether you're ready to buy, or simply looking at ideas, feel free to look around. Let us know if you have questions -- we'll answer them as best we can.
NEWS -- March 24, 2015:
We're calling it the "Stereo Heard 'Round The World." Dissatisfied with other products, Tayman's partnered with Aurora to build something better. Two years ago -- May, 2013 -- I was given a prototype to try out. FAR superior to anything else, I've been enjoying it in my Thunderbird ever since. Meanwhile our announcement to the world of this new product has caused quite a stir. Competitors accused us of everything from soup to nuts; other dealers found out quickly and switched to Aurora. Thousands have been sold, and today these Aurora conversions can literally be found around the world!
Last week -- out came the prototype, in went a new production PCB -- with BTU-1. Indeed, I have the only Thunderbird in town with Bluetooth! Meanwhile I've cleaned up the prototype for display. Click here and have a look!
Turnaround Issues! -- (Currently, expect about 30 days for most.) Customers want their radios turned around quickly. WE want them turned around quickly! So what's the holdup? PHONE CALLS, from customers asking when their radios will be finished! PLEASE folks, without the endless stream of calls we could do them MUCH faster! Here are some tips:
Plan ahead. If your car MUST be finished by Tuesday and the only holdup is the radio, finish it without the radio because it is physically impossible for us to finish 90-150 radios by Tuesday. Please allow time and you'll be rewarded.
Follow the instructions on the shipping page. Missing information = delays. Shipping damage = delays. Notes that say "Please call" = Delays. If you have special concerns, we can discuss these ahead of time.
If we don't answer the phone, please leave a message. As we work hard to get radios taken care of, we'll be shutting off the phone at times. Of course we want to answer questions and chat with customers, but priority one is the radios themselves. Be patient -- we'll get it done.
ONLINE SHOPPING: The new setup is in place and running. It still needs a little refining but it's working -- and the reason it's taking awhile is, well, see above. If you order a USA-1, 230, or 630, please e-mail us with your make/model car. This will eventually be fixed in the website.
PRODUCT CONFUSION: Many have confused our products with some almost-original-looking "repro" sets often found on eBay and similar places. We've heard continual complaints of poor quality -- and IT'S NOT OUR PRODUCT! Make no mistake -- your radio will look AND FEEL original because it IS original! The change is in the electronic components -- and even THIS is automotive grade, built in the same Detroit plants that build new car components! If in doubt, click on the "21st Century" panel below and view the photos and video!
Upgrade your radio with the FMR-1 Stereo Receiver by Aurora Design
We are the premier dealer for Aurora Design products!

Asheville HotelsThe mid-size city of Asheville, based at the foothills of the Blue Ridge mountains in Buncombe County, North Carolina, is a chilled-out urban haven full of stellar architecture, art galleries, and booming live music bars. This green city is surrounded by deep forests and hilly parks - perfect for hiking - creating a lush, eden-like backdrop. Asheville also has a strong local tradition of fairs, festivals, and performing arts events, often taking place throughout the golden summer season. Things to seeBegin your peaceful Asheville morning by taking in some of the city's proud independent art galleries. There are plenty to choose from, but the Southern Highland Craft Guild Folk Art Center is a perfect and popular place to start. This specialty museum showcases traditional and contemporary Appalachian folk art, from centuries-old crafts to surreal modern sculptures. Serious art-fiends may want to visit the River Arts District afterwards - an off-beat collection of local studios and galleries. Later in the day, architecture-appreciators will want to see the opulent Biltmore Estate, a huge Chateauesque complex built in 1889. Today, you can tour this palace-like manor, and its vast flower-flecked grounds - there are even wine tasting activities onsite. If you're after real outdoor adventure, visit the Blue Ridge Parkway, a stretch of mountainous forestland - stippled with lakes and lashed with waterfalls - that arcs around Asheville. The Parkway's great for a scenic drive, and there's plenty of hiking opportunities too. Hotels in AshevilleAsheville boasts an abundance of hotels, ranging from relaxed budget comfort to lavish upper-end luxury. Stay in one of the 2-star hotels in Asheville for an affordable city break, where you'll benefit from free hot breakfasts and free in-room WiFi. The 3-star hotels in Asheville offer plush accommodation at reasonable prices, and boast in-house restaurants and shimmering outdoor pools - ideal for a rejuvenating morning dip. If you're after something more special, check out Asheville's classy 4-star hotels. Here, you'll enjoy spa treatments and European-style concierge services. Where to stayStay in the small but buzzing Downtown area of Asheville to get an all-round quintessential experience of the city's artsy atmosphere. Here, hip cafes line up beside live-music bars, and quaint local restaurants compliment bijou boutiques. There are also a few small but idyllic public parks that take the edge of the electrifying urban vibe. For a more residential area, stay in West Asheville. This neighborhood is still flush with restaurants and bars, but with less touristy crowds. Those who want a taste of traditional southern living should stay in the Montford Area, a quiet historic neighborhood rich with old-fashioned B&Bs and inns. How to get to AshevilleThe Asheville Regional Airport is based just 15 miles south of Downtown, and serves a handful of handy domestic flights from top US airports like Atlanta, Chicago, and Charlotte. If you're flying from overseas, you'll likely fly to Charlotte Douglas International Airport - which serves many key international destinations - and catch a quick 50 minute connecting flight to Asheville Regional. There's excellent ground transportation at the airport - including taxis, car rentals, and public buses. Once in Asheville, you'll find that driving is a great way of getting around, as the city provides plenty of parking.

So I replaced the hdmi cable and all is well again. Apparently the cable was bad only when trying to play prime movie and tv streams. It worked fine with all xbmc stuff and everything else like games and apps. Maybe the hdmi cable is old 1.2 and not 1.4. At any rate, I'm glad it wasn't defective hardware.

HAVE: Zucchini & O'odham Dipper gourd seeds
I have zucchini and a very small amount of O'odham Dipper gourd seeds (11 gourd seeds total) for trade. I'm up for a trade of just about anything, so send me an email. :-)
I have the seeds for Fox cherry tomatoes. It's an heirloom type seed, that does well here in the desert. The past winter didn't kill it so I'm harvesting plenty right now. The new plants from the seeds are just beginning to set fruit.
Also have I some seeds from craft gourd; they came from a large round gourd. The grower who sells these gourd grows many types of hardshell gourds so more than likely this is a cross. Right now my plants from this gourd or 7 feet long and just starting to blossom. I have plenty of the seeds left, if you're willing to take a chance on them.

Our thought life is a part of our being that we must be in control of, instead of allowing it to control us. Many people do not realize, actions begin in our thoughts. If we have a poor opinion of ourselves, negative or sinful thoughts, we are in danger of turning down a harmful path. Pride and selfishness also begin in our thoughts when we elevate our wants, needs and opinions above those of others and or above God. These are some of the reasons we must take every thought captive. However, we must keep in mind, a great deal of good can come from our thoughts as well. Thinking about and meditating on the Lord is very positive and beneficial to us.
Have you caught yourself thinking about something and ask, where did that thought come from? If you are like most people, you have. The world intrudes on our lives in more ways than we realize. Education, philosophies, theories, false religions, entertainment (TV + Movies), government, opinions of family and friends, all of these and much more, bombard us with ideas that are contrary to God's Word. It is not surprising to find ourselves thinking about some of it.
Satan can play with our thoughts too. I don't believe he can read our minds, but he sure can plan a thought or whisper into our minds. That's another reason we must take every thought captive. We are responsible for what we think. Therefore, if our thoughts do not line up with the Word of God, we must cast them aside.
Have you ever had an imaginary conversation? Have you rehearsed a discussion with a friend or family member? It's okay to think about or to plan what we will say, but going over and over it may not be healthy. It is not uncommon for people to nurse and rehearse these exchanges to the point they take over reality. That is why two people in the same discussion can remember it differently. I would venture to say, it is because one of them went over and over the conversation to the point it evolved into something it wasn't. We can't assume we know what others are thinking and to rehearse in this way makes that assumption. Females have a greater problem in this area than men do. I used to struggle with this, in both positive and negative situations. I had to stop myself.
It takes discipline to control our thought life. It is a part of self-control we need to learn as Believers. We are called to be righteous and holy, just as Jesus is. That includes our thought life. Most sins begin with a thought. I am sure someone contemplating an affair, planned a theft, or any other sin thought about it first. That is why it is important to take our thoughts captive and make them line up with God's Word. Next time you catch yourself thinking about something unhealthy for your spiritual life, cast it aside. If you do this every time, the thoughts will come less often until they rarely happen.
We are entering a period in history where our faith is going to be tried unlike it has ever been before. We must stand blameless before an evil world. Since our walk begins in our thoughts, we must control them. We encourage you to examine this area of your spiritual life and make any adjustments that need to be made. In addition, Satan will use our thoughts to condemn us. We must remember, whom Christ has freed, are free indeed.
2 Corinthians 10:5 (NKJV)
5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ

Lofoten Islands, Norway ..... Lofoten is a group of islands in the northern part of Norway. With its postcard looking small fishing villages nestled in fjords, dotting a very rugged coast with abrupt peaks rising directly from the ocean, the archipelago is often described as one of the most scenic parts of Norway. ..... At 68N, the Lofoten archipelago is well above the arctic circle, and at the same latitude as Greenland or the northern parts of Alaska. However, it enjoys a relatively milder climate due to the circulation of the Gulf Stream, and temperatures up to 23C in the summer are not uncommon. Still, it remains a subarctic destination, the weather changes fast, and even in the summer it may become cold. Reciprocally, the winter...
As a photographer I like to be on the move, physically and technically, trying out new approaches and discovering new paths. I believe artists should continually challenge themselves and experiment in order to progress creatively and to keep ideas fresh and vital. My primary aim is to capture the essential quality of the experience before me at the very moment the shutter closes. I then allow the subject to dictate the precise levels of tone or colour required for the final image. These decisions are key to my creative process and something I find continually challenging and inspiring. Dave Bowman Photography

Is Rosie O'Donnell hoping to be the next Oprah?
O'Donnell, who hosted the syndicated "The Rosie O'Donnell Show" and appeared as a guest talkmeister on "The View," is working with a team of syndicate pros on another show, planned for a launch in the fall of 2011.
That start date would coincide with the end of "The Oprah Winfrey Show."
The story was first reported by the website Showbiz411.com.
The fact that O'Donnell is planning the show for syndication and outside the "studio system' may mean she intends to be herself -- complete with the salty talk and politically charged style that has landed her in hot water more than once.
O'Donnell, who tried but failed to start an NBC prime time variety show, may be a better candidate for the controvesry-loving cable world, which has been expanding in the talk-show arena.
"Cable likes controversy and defined personalities with a strong point of view," a leading syndicator said.

when we decided to move our bedroom to a different room in the house, we no longer had the space for our old bedside tables. i decided to use an old chair because it was narrow enough and it looked pretty good. unfortunately, i lost two important things in the switch: a place for private things (my 'goody' drawer, so to speak, although mine just has a journal and some nail clippers…saucy!!) and surface space – even with a smaller bedside lamp i didn't have much room. i loved the quirkiness of using a chair (i've seen in many home tours and it is always very charming), but i needed these problems solved. ikea to the rescue!!
i am majorly inspired by "odd" furniture designs, like this "tamp and lable" by florian kallus, so i decided to work over a simple pine chair to create a multi-purpose bedside table, complete with a drawer and swivel lamp! i splurged a bit on the new trål wall sconce ($16.99) because it looked so good with the chair, and i like that it rotates so i can change the angle when i am reading in bed. if you aren't into the industrial look of this piece (my boyfriend called this franken-furniture, which i love), i hope you will at least take away the knowledge that adding a drawer to a chair (or anything) is remarkably easy, and cheap! the great thing about this design is that you can still use the chair for seating if you need to, you can even have a little light over your shoulder! i hope you like this one, i had a lot of fun making it. have fun!! -kate
CLICK HERE for the full how-to after the jump!
1. ikea ivar chair
2. ikea trål sconce
3. ikea snodd knobs (or any knob you like)
3. wood box or crate or old drawer (must be 12″ wide and under 12″ long. i used this wood craft boxfrom michael's craft store)
4. drill (with a 3/8″ thick drill bit)
5. drawer slides 10″ long (these come in packs of two and are available at most hardware stores. they come in many lengths)
6. 1″ wood screws (x2)
ikea materials: $41
wood crate, box: free on hand, or $5 (at craft store)
drawer slides: $5
2-3 hours
1. take the chair out of the box and connect the two side pieces with the back slats of the chair, according to the instructions. lay the seat on top, but do not attach.
2. take your drawer/box and slide under the seat in front to check the fit. the box from michael's fit perfectly with the 12″ side as the front of the drawer.
3. take the drawer slides apart and attach the slides to the drawer according to the instructions that come with the drawer slides. you should have small screws included with the drawer slides that you can use. it's okay if your drawer does not go the full length of the slides (my box was just 8″ wide, so 2″ of slide were extending on the back of the drawer). make the drawer slides flush with the front of your drawer, and screw in a couple places on each side to secure. you might want to add a piece of wood to the back for weight. i used the extra front panel piece of the chair that was left over.
4. now that your drawer has the slides attached, take the seat off the chair so the interior of the sides of the chair are exposed. attach the other two pieces of the drawer slides to the left and right side of the chair. make them flush with the top edge of the sides, so that they seat will be right on top of them and the drawer. you can put your drawer in while holding the sides to make sure you have them in the right place. a second person is useful here for this purpose.
5. screw the front of the drawer slides into the chair legs with one screw on each side. then screw in the back of each drawer slide with the 1″ screws (to account for the gap between the slide and the wood of the chair).
6. now that your drawer slides are in, your drawer should slide into them easily. you will notice that the front of the chair is adjustable in width, because the seat hasn't been attached yet. adjust their width so that the drawer is sliding in without any friction.
7. when you have the drawer in the right place and sliding properly, put the seat back on and screw in place using the screws that came with the chair. make sure the drawer still slides nicely when the seat is put in place.
8. drill a hole in the center of the front of the drawer and add the snodd knob. super cute! slide drawer back in place.
9. unwrap the sconce and read the directions for installation. it's WAY too easy.
10. take the metal piece that attaches to the "wall" and screw it into the back of the top of the chair on the left side (or right, depending on which side of the bed your chair is going on)
11. slide the sconce piece onto the metal piece and add the pin to secure. add light bulb. if you want, you can staple the cord down the back of the chair to keep it neat, but it's pretty easy to hide and tuck away also.
12. put next the bed and plug it in. hide goodies in drawer.
très bien!
This is such a great idea! Thanks for sharing the step by step.
wow that's awesome! i have that exact same chair. very creative!
Kate, super innovative idea and great result! Thanks for sharing this; I'm definitely going to try it out.
genius! I want to make this now!
This is awesome! Thanks for sharing. Hope you don't mind a copycat! (Imitations is the sincerest form of flattery, right?)
Beautiful! The addition of the attached lamp is what does it for me as a night stand; I love it! Now I'm also imagining all the possibilities of drawers on chairs EVERYWHERE. Dinner table, desk; extra hiding spaces are always good to have when you're a squirrel like me!
I love this so much!
I love using chairs as nightstands… but I use a basket under the seat. The drawer idea is so much better, never knew you could do that.
Like Ophelia I might start putting drawers everywhere now.
Oh this is wonderful, wonderful!
bravo, what a charming idea! great project for a child's room! Dd
love it :) clever, too!
best DIY ever. so creative.
No way! That is awesome! I love it…
I definitely used chairs as a bedside table for quite a while, they matched and didn't match anything else in my apartment! However, they have a circular seat so I might have to go for the basket version instead since I would never have a seamless fit.
SO CUTE! But I am bummed to find out that you have to MAKE this yourself. I would totally buy it though :)
THIS is a great idea! Thanks for sharing with other people without much space left in the bedroom…
I have a tiny one BR apartment with little storage, and this is a creative way to even make dining seating a storage secret!
And as a bedside table? Just adorable!
You, my dear, are a genius.
This is a perfect idea to do on kids chairs. They can hold their treasures or art supplies in there!
i am so impressed! i totally did a double take when i saw a drawer under that chair.
Nice. I need to do this project my son's room and probably for my work area. Thank you for the idea.
So crafty! I love it.
great idea. i really want to try this.
Such a clever idea!! Definitely one to tuck away in my "clever ideas" file! Okay… I'm teasing about having a file called "clever ideas" specifically, but I'm sooo not teasing about saving your franken-furniture (love that too) idea for that perfect, future application. Thanks!
Wow! Such a clever idea – I utterly love this!
whoopee! I "inherited" a couple of those evergreen IKEA chairs. My kids will love their "secret drawer!!
How incredibly clever are you?!? It looks fantastic.
I love chairs as nightstands, they add so much more character to the room. Myself, I would also add some kind of basket underneath to give me some extra storage (I'm always in dire need of storage around here)!
I love your blog!! Such inspirational ideas!!
This is very cool. This would be so great for at an eating table too! you could store napkins and things in the drawers.
Now that is brilliant! I need to get moving and make one of these, ikea is so close tome!
Oh I LOOOOVE this!!!!!!!! this is the best idea I've seen in ages, I wish I'd done it for my bed and ooh your could have storage in all your lounge chairs! INGENIUS!!!
I'm with Megan: this is brilliant! I'm totally inspired.
This is so ridiculously cool, I can't believe it! My house is full of IKEA stuff, but I have not yet hacked any of it. Gotta put this one into my favourites, as I just fell in Luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurve!
OMG! I am so making this! Thanks for sharing!!
so clever!! thank you, once again
How amazing…. I love the way you let yourself be inspired by the ever so clever and talented Florian K. BUT of course this DIY level is already far too sophisticated for many amongst us. WHAT A GREAT IDEA and sublime execution. Love your boyfriend's name for it!!! :) Thank You for letting us participate
Wow! This is a fantastic idea!!
This is a great piece! I love adapting furniture to the current need. Who says it has to be "traditional?" And the idea of adding a drawer underneath? Smart thinkin'!
Stan Horst
i actually don't think this level of diy project is above most people reading. installing a drawer is a lot easier than you think ;)
That's pretty genius !
fantastic thought love you, so cool
Love it! If I tried it I would add a board over the two stretchers (is that what the two pieces connecting the back and front legs are called?) under the seat for an extra storage space!
Great idea! You should sell the idea to Ikea for millions of dollar via a patent!!
too clever for words! I will be doing a full set of dining chairs!
um- pretty dang cool. IKEA! here I come!!
Great idea! I never saw the view from the back, but I imagine there is a way to make that look nice if it doesn't…and it would be a great idea to do for all the chairs at a table in a small apartment!! Could store all the placemats and napkins….wow!
wow i do love this for a dining table. I also have a small apt. Maybe I can put napkins, votive candles, flowers and accessories for a center piece. I mot a fan of wood, but i do love this!!!
Great idea! BTW that book shown in the pictures is one of my FAVES!
Came back to this post. I love it so much. I have no need for chairs but I definitely see a trip to Ikea for the supplies in my future. Thank you. Thank you.
so cool, I really want to try this!
franken furniture indeed! bleepin' brilliant! hats off to you and your clever, space saving, awesome ikea hack. I can't wait to see what you come up with next.
I, too, am drawn to quirky furniture. Usually, it comes with a huge price. This is brilliant and thanks for concise directions.
Super! Love it.
I love this! What a great idea.
Love this idea Kate! Some people use chairs for hanging their clothes but it's a real bonus to have the drawer and rotating lamp.
The front of the drawer, is that the piece of the chair that u havent used? Cause it looks much lower than on the orignal ikea chair. Or am I missing something???
meindert Peters:
yes, you are right. you do not put the front panel of the chair on because you are replacing it with the drawer. the piece of wood you see is the front of the drawer that i added on.
This is a really smart and well-executed idea. I like that you left the natural wood, yet the design gives people the option of painting, stenciling or vinyl decals if they want.
I'm wondering if this will work on other styles of chairs that have cylindrical legs–can you attach the drawer slides under the chair's seat? Also, were the slides the same depth as the chair or did they stick out in back and then you cut them off? I have some windsor chairs I would like to try this on.
OK. I don't understand "the piece of wood you see is the front of the drawer that i added on." Is this an additional piece of wood that you purchased? Is it actually a piece of a drawer that you already owned? A piece of the Michael's box that you featured? Is it a piece of the chair? Inquiring minds want to know.
Hey all! Here are some answers to the most recent questions:
1. Rebecca E – the drawer slides I purchased require you to attach the slides to the side of the chair (they do not have screw holes on the top of the metal bars, only on the side). BUT, you could probably drill some small holes in the metal to allow you to attach upward to the underside of the seat. I definitely recommend trying it out. Most seats should be at least 10 or 12″ deep (to accommodate adult butts!), so the slides do not need to be cut, they fit under the seat perfectly. If you do have a shorter seat, look for 8″ slides online. I don't think you can cut the slides because the roll mechanisms at both ends are required.
2. EBrown – Sorry if I was unclear. I attached a 3″ x 12″ piece of pine to the front of my box because my box wood finish didn't quite match my chair. i left the step out because it may not be necessary for everyone and it seemed to make the directions more confusing. If you do purchase the michael's box i used, you might want to get a piece of pine from a hardware store that is 3″ x 12″ (and .5″-1″ thick) and attach it to the front. It doesn't change how you mount the drawer slides at all – you still mount them so the front of the slides are flush with the front of the box (w/o the wood). You just add the piece of wood to the front of the box after the slides are attached.
I have been scouring the intertoobs for this type of design and this is the first I've found. Thank you! I've been wanting to add drawers to my dining chairs and table in order to store stuff in the spot closest to where it will be used.
You are too clever-please submit this to Country Living-they will eat it up!
fantastic idea!
I have an IKEA chair that was discontinued. They put in the drawer & the back has fabric velcroed around each slat to form 2 slings for books that hang behind the chair. BUT the light!! Great idea — I have been stressing about moving my bed around and putting more holes in the walls for my lights. It never occured to me to attach the lights to the chair, brilliant!
wow. i just love it!
it's so great ! i love it !!
This is fantastic! I also never knew that a creating a drawer could be so easy. Definitely going to try that out!
I've been wanting to make this since I saw it and I'm gathering materials! Very exciting!
Anyways, I was just looking at the chair and, since the front wood panel is no longer used, I was wondering if the chair is still sit-on-able?
This looks adorable! I'm trying to get a hold of an unfinished wooden box, but can't find one anywhere (not at craft or home improvements stores, offline AND online).
Does anyone have any ideas on how to get a wooden box like this, short of making one?
I love this idea! It turned out so very fantastic, and I can see me using the back-of-the-chair rungs to hang my necklaces. Could keep them seperated by either notching the rung, or putting little pegs in the rung. Oh my oh my! Whoohoo
I love this, however, how did you get the front piece of the drawer?
It is obviously not from the chair, and that craft box you linked to doesn't have that bigger piece either.
How do you get that bigger front piece?
i love it
LOVE this idea!!!
I also haven't been able to find a drawer like the one used here – either in stores, or online. Does anyone have insight in to where to get one?

Just a minor core dump.
There is that moment when you pause and look at your own art and think, what the hell am I doing. Am I still clawing at this wall? how many years has it been?
Then I looked at the dA stat on my page. 10 years. good lord. That is a long haul.
Well I'm not giving up. ONWARD!
2014 was a heck of a year. I didn't get nearly done what I wanted, nor did I see the growth I wanted, but it had some really good high notes.
I have gotten back into drawing every day, and this was the year of streaming. I made some great new friends through the streams, and it has kept me from falling into the hole of not drawing. that is a dark hole friends.
I also used manga studio and photoshop far more than before. Painter is still my old sidekick, but I've found just trying new apps has pushed me out of the rut that one can fall into that is set by the tools.
I did almost no traditional work this year. I think thats a side effect of streaming so much. I'll have to correct that. Need to get back to the copics and dip pens.
I'm already getting info for San Diego Comic -Con 2015. yikes!
Every year I get punked by San Diego comic-con. At the last minute I stumble around trying to get stuff ready and never seem to have what I want done.
I am going to start getting ready now. no joke. its in July, but I want to have a load of new work for it. I'm thinking a new artbook, final issue of Native Drums (maybe a trade paper back of it all) and something new. Chuck has a new story idea that sounds freakin great.

Product description
Through the research of Dr Lipton and other leading-edge scientists, stunning new discoveries have been made about the interaction between your mind and body and the processes by which cells receive information. It shows that genes and DNA do not control our biology, that instead DNA is controlled by signals from outside the cell, including the energetic messages emanating from our thoughts. Using simple language, illustrations, humour, and everyday examples, he demonstrates how the new science of Epigenetics is revolutionising our understanding of the link between mind and matter and the profound effects it has on our personal lives and the collective life of our species.

Oklahoma AG To Appeal Regional Haze Lawsuit Ruling
Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt told a congressional committee in Washington that he will ask the U.S. Supreme Court to review the state's regional haze lawsuit against the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.
Pruitt spoke Thursday before a U.S. House Subcommittee on Energy and Power that is overseeing EPA's proposed new greenhouse gas rules that affect electricity generation.
Pruitt contends the agency exceeded its authority when it denied Oklahoma's plan to address haze that affected visibility in state wildlife areas — but a U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals three-judge panel ruled 2-1 in July in favor of the EPA. The full appeals court has rejected the state's request for a rehearing.
Oklahoma utility officials have said the new haze requirements are expected to lead to higher electric rates.

Art exhibit and festival draws attention to Grand Isle
Published: Monday, April 4, 2011 at 11:43 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, April 4, 2011 at 11:43 a.m.
HOUMA — If you want to do your part in helping save Louisiana's wetlands, you can attend a cultural event this month.
The Ninth Annual Juried Fine Arts Exhibition, the 14th annual Migratory Bird Celebration and historical home tour are scheduled April 9-17 at the Grand Isle Community Center, 3811 La. 1.
Organizers put out a call each year for entries in the exhibition.
Organizers said artists can enter their works with themes relating to the physical, political and emotional landscape associated with the only inhabited Louisiana barrier island and its surrounding wetlands.
They said the goal of the exhibition is to showcase visual art from the region and raise awareness of Louisiana's fragile, but rich coastal environment and continuing loss.

Automatic Air Vent Cap tight or loose
I closed the automatic air vent cap completely on the water heater tank when the system was installed last week, because it leaked water.
This AM I reading the owner's manual closely and it instructs one on a monthly basis to check the automatic air vent and when done screw cap on fully. And then loosen cap, one full turn to allow vent to operate properly.
However, when it is in this loosened position, it leaks water at a goodly rate.
What to do?
To operate properly the cap must be loose. They do go bad and leak. When that happens you must replace it. You can tighten it to stop the leak but if you develope air problems it must be replaced. If this is new your contractor should replace it for free.
Thanks for your reply
When he left the first day after the install this one was leaking and another one (not on the boiler, but at another place) - both new. I told him that I had closed them to stop the drip, and the response was something like, that is fine; just remember to periodically bleed them.
What is the consequence of not replacing? I have so many other issues to deal with as an aftermath of the job that I am tiring and performing triage on what is essential versus an inconvenience.
if he put the auto bleeders in, he must of thought you needed
them. So if you need them they should be left open. if you are going to open them just once in a while then he could have put coin bleeders in for 1/10 the cost. If two of them started
leaking right away then it sounds like you might have too much junk in the system. maybe the system needs to be flushed
out. later paulbm
The consequence is air will be trapped in your system and stop the circulation of heating water. That's the short answer. Air is an enemy of hot water heat. Your contractor should replace them. As paulbm said, you could have crap in your system that got stuck in the valve seat. You can leave them alone and see what happens or you can remove the caps and press down on the stem to see if it clears. If your sytem develops air problems get them replaced. You should not have to bleed your own system because of a lazy contractor. Believe me, he charged you for them and they are under warrenty.
25 years in the field and i think every air vent leaks or just doesn't work after a very short time, and know it seems any brand that you use leaks almost immediately, poor quality control i guess, however it seems that the 3/4" air vents are much better and more reliable than the 1/8" so good luck
They are the TACO Hy-Vent automatic air valves: one atop water tank and other atop highest point in system.
OK, so I need to tell my contractor that there is gunk in my system, which has caused my shower and tub faucets to begin dripping and which is causing these air vents to leak. Got it! Thanks so very much for your replies. Onto chapter #5 of the boiler replacement saga . . . .

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
17 Dec 2010 06:04 GMT | US & Canada, United States
Police in the US city of Los Angeles have released photos found at the home of a man accused of the "Grim Sleeper" serial killings.
Close to 160 women are depicted in the images and police announced on Thursday that are trying to identify them.
Lonnie Franklin Jr has pleaded not guilty to the murders of 10 women from 1985 to 1988 and from 2002 to 2007.The apparent 14-year pause in the alleged crimes led to the nickname "Grim Sleeper," though detectives suspect Franklin could be involved in other deaths.Police also said they found numerous sexually explicit photographs and home videos of scores of women when they searched the home of the car mechanic.Authorities also sought the public's help when they released images of about 160 women and asked anyone who recognised them to come forward."We certainly do not believe that we are so lucky, or so good, as to know all of his victims,'' Charlie Beck, the police chief said. "We need the public's help.''The photos and videos were found at Franklin's home and garage during a three-day search after his July arrest."Now that we know who he is and what type of activity he is involved in with women, we are very concerned for everyone in these photographs,'' Dennis Kilcoyne, a detective, said.
Published onlinePolice displayed the photographs for media and have made the images available online. By Thursday afternoon, the LAPD's website had slowed to a crawl after its Texas-based server was strained by a massive surge in people trying to click through to the pictures.In almost every photo, the subject is smiling at the camera. Some women could have been naked but it is difficult to tell in the tightly cropped images.Others were photographed outside as part of a group photograph.The women appear to be willing participants in what police said were sexually explicit images."It baffles me how he is so successful at getting women to do what he asks them to do,'' Kilcoyne said."It's not like we have pictures of him holding a knife to someone's neck.''Detectives said the photos span decades and were taken on 35mm film, Polaroids and digital cameras. The women range from young teens to their 60s.Except for two or three white women and a Latina, all the women are black.Some appear to be asleep, and several known victims of the serial killer were said to be prostitutes.Detectives would not say if any of the women photographed might have been involved in the sex trade.All of Franklin's alleged victims were killed within a few miles of his home, where neighbours knew him as a talented backyard mechanic.
Police also have said they suspect Franklin in the death of a man who may have discovered he was a killer. In addition, they are reviewing more than 30 other cold-case files to see if they can tie Franklin to other slayings.
Franklin was taken into custody last summer after his son was arrested and swabbed for DNA. Using a technique known as a familial DNA search, the sample came back as similar to evidence in the serial killings, ultimately leading police to Franklin.
