Tinker Tuesday for January 21, 2025

This thread is for anyone working on personal projects to share their progress, and hold themselves somewhat accountable to a group of peers.

Post your project, your progress from last week, and what you hope to accomplish this week.

If you want to be pinged with a reminder asking about your project, let me know, and I'll harass you each week until you cancel the service

Does anyone else have a wood stove with a really long chimney? Mine is on a long side of the house, 45 degree roof, cap above the roof peak. Not exactly accessible.

Just had a sootfall from the cap that blocked the draft and caused a very smoky disaster while lighting. Need to get up on the platform I built on the roof years ago, but not without a safety rope: it's probably kinda rotten.

I'd much rather be tinkering with my other projects than the consequences of deferred house maintenance.
