Last Notes npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I'm not saying you are. I'm saying I don't see the incentive for a small economic node, such as myself, to switch to the chain with frozen coins if it comes down to one. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Personally, I don't think price action is a valid reason to make these changes. Lots of people and institutions would get rekt if over leveredged and we'd come out stronger, no? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I read the article, I read the BIP. I am trying to think through this rationally and not jump to any conclusions one way or another. Can you elaborate on one thing for me? It looks, from my reading, that the biggest argument for freezing / burning / whatever the "vulnerable" coins is because if they come to market they will have a negative price impact. Am I interpreting this correctly? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Do you get the beef locally for sats? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner That looks like such beautiful material. Are you able to use / monetize the bits that don't work out for the books? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner So cool. A friend of mine is thinking of saving up this year for a wood fired hot tub. Maybe I'll end up assembling it for him from your kit! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I will definitely be adding some time to my trip for that! What moisture content do you have to get the wood down to for the tubs? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner You're not kidding! Those hot tubs you're making are gorgeous!! I wish I wasn't full to the brim at my (tiny) shop because I'd love to take you up on the offer. I'm in the lower Hudson Valley so the other side of the country anyway... npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM nostr, its time for my #introductions npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Divine has a lot of my nonbitcoiner / nonnostr friends excited. I think this will be a great way to expand the protocol 🤝 🍻 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner It blows my mind that companies actually PLAN obsolescence. It is a total betrayal of the relationship between business and customer. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner That's a beautiful color! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner @nprofile…6tav Now my last 4,000 sats are gone from my balance after a failed 42 sat zap 😬 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM @nprofile…6tav npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner @nprofile…6tav what's the proper support channel? I'd like to keep zapping the fine people here on nostr but last time I zapped my app drained 2k sats unexplained! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Yo @nprofile…w6ma npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner @nprofile…6tav I had some unexplained balance changes in my app yesterday. Watched the balance drop a few thousand sats in front of my eyes with no explanation. Is there a support or trouble shooting group? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Today I made my first self sovereign lightning purchase, I heard of the company on nostr npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner It will be a bit more decentralized if I get this node going the way I want. Even if I only do one hop before the "hub" I'll be happy npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I'd rather have a node with a wide variety of connections if I can make it work. I think 1 big channel is more convenient than robust npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner How many channels does a merchant need to have good connection to the lightning network? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner The first time you see the same DMs across different implementations of nostr is really trippy. Puts the whole protocol into perspective npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Roughly $40 / tray depending on the exact specifics. Would be high quality hash-heated white oak with your cafe logo laser printed on 🥳 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM nostr, feeling good today. I see the light at the end of the tunnel for collecting and verifying BTC in a self custodial, self sovereign way npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner No, the best way to care for these boards is to hand wash. The high heat and excessive moisture in dishwashers can cause the wood to warp or even cause the boards that are made of multiple pieces to begin to delaminate npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner True npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I am very, very far from an expert on this so I can't really give out advice. What I will say is that if you have the budget, don't go cheap on the hardware. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I still need a node to validate the TX. Of course I could use mempool.space or any other public blockchain explorer but I don't want to... npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner But what does that QR code go to? My intent is to sell goods for BTC and to do so without a 3rd party. Which means that I need to run my own node to validate my own transactions, and I need to do it on my own hardware... in other words when I show you the QR code I want it to have been generated by my computer at home npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner BTCPay server runs the node in the background on the same raspberry pi npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Yes, theoretically. Mine is having an issue after I tried to add on additional features though so at this point I'm not keeping up with the chain npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I've done it in two weeks on better hardware. Some people can do it in hours, just depends on what your computer specs are npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner For me yes, to download and validate. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner They're awesome. I was surprised at its size vs the bitaxe. Also, somehow my nerdaxe is quieter than my bitaxe 🧐 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Thank you! I make them for the bitaxe too npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner 10% discount and free shipping if paying with BTC, DM me on nostr to set it up. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner If you see any you like on thewoodmine.com and want to pay BTC I will do 10% discount and free shipping! Just need to DM me on Nostr because my store is not currently set up to natively accept BTC npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner That would make sense... it has been a real struggle trying to get this thing working. I don't want the dream of self sovereign BTC on cheap hardware to die though. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I think I spoke too soon 😭 is anybody familiar with what may have gone wrong? Happened sometime during Shopify v2 integration npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I will be adding more at lower price points over the next few weeks! I hope to serve a very broad market 😃 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner You are an absolute legend. Will DM you now npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner It just synced yesterday so today's agenda is to finish Shopify integration. Then I will figure out some lightning liquidity and be zapping ⚡ npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner To get wood down to a suitable moisture content for finer woodworking (6-8%) you need to have a kiln. I made mine with a bitcoin miner as the heat source. In this sense the heat from hashing did the work to dry the lumber (hash-heated). I didn't coin the term but I love it npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I appreciate the sincere and thought out response. At the end (and start) of the day it is totally worth the discovery trade-off to not be fed the algo-fear-slop. I'm planning another giveaway soon so will definitely be using The Derek Algorithm soon 🤣 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM Derek, any tips for hitting that mass on Nostr? It's pretty hard to start from zero here and build up organically. I recently tried to do a free giveaway for third spaces and I doubt any even saw it npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I've only ever milled one cherry tree. It is my desk, my cutting board, my shelf, my bitaxe stand, the frame to my aunts memorial... it is the first batch of wood I've kiln dried. It's been cut up and spread around the country, some with family, some with friends. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Is this market lightning only? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner stuck in the void 🤣 https://blossom.primal.net/fc4b2a8cf5084c5658fd570b65cc5b9fda608495d02e55080f67417830ae46b6.png npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner holy shit it finally happened. My BTCPay Server synced onto a raspi 4. It only took 3 months 😅 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner What hash-heated wood products do y'all want to see in time for Christmas? I'm thinking you can give your aunt who hates bitcoin energy use a hash-heated cutting board to open up some conversations npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Just some Monday morning milling. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Unfortunately this giveaway failed 😟 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Cool, I've never tried that method. I might have to give it a try for part of this batch npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner How long did you air dry/ how long do you cure? I currently have a small amount air drying as well, almost at the 2 week mark npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner awesome npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Every Citadel should have a small sawmill and a woodMiner! If you have some land with some trees and want to talk about processing your own lumber let's talk npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM. Only two more days! Still don't have any entries ... I should be able to give away free stuff here! C'mon NOSTR! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Okay, my goal for the end next week is to get a few products up on Plebeian 🤝 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner That's beautiful work. I air dry my stuff for like a year too before I put it in the kiln (mostly because it was all already air drying when I made the kiln). The kiln for me is only to get it down those last few % that you can't get to with air drying... at least in my climate. For example the cherry I used in my first batch was air dried for almost two years and only got to 14% (this was 2" thick slabs though) , then 3 weeks in the kiln and its down to 8%. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Thank you, I'm having a lot of fun with it. The goal is to eventually get a full kiln that can dry wood right off the sawmill but if I tried that with this set up it would crack and warp wayyyyy too much npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Hah, yeah that's definitely where I was getting caught up. Thank you for the help/info. I'll look into the wallets you recommended and hopefully will be up and zapping soon npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM nostr! Still open if any 3rd space wants the signs! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I thought I was good to go originally using minibits through Zeus but for some reason still couldn't find a way to generate the NWC string. I think I'll probably end up going with alby on my node and my own channels eventually... I just have some light ptsd from the last time I messed with lightning channel management 🤣 npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner do you need to run / manage your own node for a NWC wallet? I was trying to get everything set up with ecash using pub.cash so I didn't have to deal with a lightning node but I can't seem to get a NWC string npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner what are you using to generate the nostr wallet connect string? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner free primal npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner probably mine, I wasn't sure if I set it up correctly. Trying to use npub.cash npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Congrats on 1 year! I will throw in a free stand to whoever wins the bitaxe! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner NOSTR GIVEAWAY!! 3rd SPACE GIVEAWAY!! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Good morning and happy Monday npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Here is a small look at what hash heating looks like for drying lumber. This is an ongoing project currently using air-cooled miners. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM nostr. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. BTC pay server has synced up to block 902,000 after about 3 months (raspi 4). Looks like it should be fully synced in ~2 more week. I have no idea if this is now the standard for a full initial block download on a raspberry pi or what. I'm just happy to be near the end... npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner https://blossom.primal.net/4ca550b6f04980dbf0432c907f27414d6e4e64def1ce89beab2af15cec1a2990.jpg
npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Nerdaxe stands coming soon npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Hash-heated exterior coffee table made from eastern white cedar npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Hi @nprofile…4zay this is super cool. I have a small kiln for drying slabs heated with a futurebit. What is the initial and final moisture content on these? Do you attempt to control the humidity in the drying tower? npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Excited to mess around with cnc joinery. If anybody has any tips or tricks please share! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Yes, 100%. I air dry my lumber first so it's already about 15% moisture content when it goes into the kiln. This is just to finish it off and get it down into the 6-8% range. There is still some loss though. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Drying lumber! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Great concept! npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I should clarify, it's probably closer to 125F on average around the whole stack at the moment. I'll keep ya posted. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner I just switched to sterilization on my third batch of wood, utilizing one Avalon Miner 1266. The chamber is ~100 square feet and stacked with varying thickness oak boards. I'm happy to say it went from 100F - 132F in 2 hours. My goal is to reach and sustain 135F (or higher) for 3 days. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner GM nostr. It is currently 105F inside this wood kiln. Powered by a #FutureBit that is intaking 75F air. npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner Shipments from thewoodmine.com are back! Order today with fiat, or wait about a week or so (hopefully that's it!) and pay with btc npub1dd87dzj8juqq90h0jn4vcy8s3hm02pneu6ckjstcapkquvp5gexq6h2tzd woodMiner is this thing on?
