Salvage Neodymium Magnets from an Old Hard Drive Scavenging parts from old, discarded electronics is a skill every maker should hone. Old hard drives in particular are stuffed with useful components and greeblies that you can incorporate into other projects. They’re also just plain fun to open up (at least once you find those hidden screws manufacturers hide under their labels to prevent tampering). The folks at iFixit have a great teardown worth checking out that walks you through the process of opening a hard drive. If there’s a pearl to be plucked from a hard drive, it’s the large, super strong Neodymium (rare earth) magnet. In the video shown here, you’ll see where to locate the magnet, how to remove the bracket, and how to use a vise and wrench to get a purchase on the strong magnet and remove it. What can you make with the magnets when you’re done? Donald Bell I make stuff, play music, and sometimes make stuff that plays music.

The African American Woman's Headwrap: Unwinding the Symbols The African American Woman's Headwrap: Unwinding the Symbols By: Helen Bradley Griebel THE AFRICAN AMERICAN headwrap holds a distinctive position in the history of American dress both for its longevity and for its potent signification's. It endured the travail of slavery and never passed out of fashion. The headwrap represents far more than a piece of fabric wound around the head. This distinct cloth head covering has been called variously "head rag," "head- tie," "head handkerchief," "turban," or "headwrap." The headwrap originated in sub-Saharan Africa, and serves similar functions for both African and African American women. This study examines the multi-layered meanings acquired by the headwrap over several centuries. The impetus for this research comes from the comments made by approximately two thousand formerly' enslaved African Americans who recounted their experiences and contributed their oral histories to the Federal Writers' Project in 1936 to 1938.
How to Make Your Own Recycled Paper Recycled paper can be made from old newspaper, following the instructions below. Recycling paper uses cellulose (plant fibers) over and over again, it uses less electricity, less water, a lot less pollution, and it saves trees from being cut down! You will need: a food processor or an old blender an electric iron an old wire hanger an old pair of panty hose newspaper or other paper, torn into 2-inch squares white glue water an insect screen or strainer (optional) food coloring (optional) a big sink or tub filled with 4 inches of water Make sure you have a place to work where you can make a big mess! Step One: Make a frame out of the coat hanger. Step Two: Put a handful of the torn up paper and some water into the food processor or blender. For some color, add a handful of brown or red onion skin (not the onion itself, just the papery outer skin). Step Three: Put 2 tablespoons of white glue in the sink water and add all of the paper pulp you just made.

CM 14.1: what it is, how to get it and what devices are supported by CyanogenMod | Android Fast When you say ‘custom ROM’ it’s hard not to think ‘CyanogenMod‘. For many people the two terms are virtually interchangeable while for others CyanogenMod is at the very least at the top of the ROM pyramid. So what is CyanogenMod and how can you get CM 14.1 on your device? What is CyanogenMod? Cyanogen is the online handle of Steve Kondik, the man behind the first CyanogenMod ROM from way back in 2009. A custom ROM is essentially just firmware for a device that isn’t what it came out of the box with. Many ROMs are based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) – the source code behind stock Android – with some looking a lot like stock Android, including CyanogenMod, while others get pretty crazy pretty fast. Not all of these forks are compatible with Google apps, but some, like CyanogenMod, can have Google’s app suite sideloaded after the ROM is installed. What is CM 14.1? CM 14.1 is simply the latest version of CyanogenMod, based on the Android 7.1 Nougat source code. What’s in CM 14.1?
