Neuschwanstein 3D Puzz

Neviem už ani prečo, no v roku 2011 som mal pocit, že sa moja rodina nudí a tak som mojej mame a sestre na meniny kúpil 3D puzzle. Netušil som, že tento hrad patrí k tým najťažším stavebniciam. Veková skupina bola 12+ a podľa toho by sme to predsa mali dať. 
Našiel som ho v second-hande Carla vo Viedni a preto som dúfal, že nebudú chýbať žiadne diely.

Začali sme v lete, písal sa dátum 11.9.2011. Prvý stavbársky tým bol zložený z mamy, sestry, Mati a mňa. Po nejakej chvíli bolo jasné, že stavba bude asi pokračovať bez príslušníkov mojej rodiny. Asi patrím k trpezlivejším jedincom.




Po pár víkendoch sme dokázali spraviť prednú bránu a strechu. Keďže sa stavby neskôr okrem mňa nikto nechytal, odložil som ju na čas do izby. To som vtedy netušil, že ten čas bude znamenať asi 2,5 roka.


Zlom nastal 2.3.2014, keď sa k stavbe dobrovoľne pridali Anička, Veronika a Ondrej. Pár hodín ticha, občas rozhovor - to bola Saturday night puzzle party. Ideálny večer na otestovanie pozornosti, sebakontroly a nájdenie autistického ja v každom z nás.
Spravili sme niekoľko veží, stien a ďalšie malé časti. Bohužiaľ sme ich nemohli dať hneď dokopy. 3 hodiny bolo málo. Dôležité však bolo, že voľných častí ubúdalo a tým sa práce na stavbe postupne zrýchľovali.





Nasledujúce nedeľné ráno mi to nedalo a počas dňa som pokračoval tam, kde Saturday night puzzle party  skončila. Práce išli rýchlejšie, počet častí sa zmenšoval. K popoludniu to vyzeralo, že by som mohol hrad dokončiť ešte v ten deň večer. K posledným prácam sa pridala moja sestra, ktorá ma okrem iného podporila aj 4. vajíčkovými krajcami chleba. Odchod do Bratislavy som posunul asi o 4 hodiny.Hrad bol v nedeľu 2.3.2014 konečne dokončený.




Chýbal iba jeden maličký dosť nepodstatný dielik z najvyššej veže. A takto vyzerá hotový Neuschwanstein z 999. častí.
Čas stavby od začiatku do konca s prestávkami: 903 dní
Počet staviteľov: 7

Windows 7 RC Ultimate on HP Compaq nx6110

I have never tried Vista on my laptop, because it is well suited for WinXP and I don't like Vista. But what if you can download the new Win 7 RC for free? I'm using Windows XP since I have bought my old laptop HP Compaq nx6110 (1,4 Ghz Celeron M, 768 MB RAM). WinXP runs on this laptop really fast and smoothly, but I have turned every "eyecandy" off and it looks like old Win95 now. But I like this neutral look. Last week I was closed in my room for two days installing and trying different Linux distributions. After this time I ended with Arch Linux installed on my hard drive - system was stable and either WiFi worked well. Then I realized, that I have spent so much time and done nothing useful. So I decided to work with WinXP and don't bother with other OS (like 2 weeks with Mac OS X a month ago). But NO. Incidentally I got to this website and started immediately download the iso image. The download process ran in Java and I had download speed about 800 KB/s, tha

Yamaha S08 - sticky keys repair

My keyboard Yamaha S08  suffered from several "sticky keys" disease already a year, perhaps more. That saying, I am pretty bad piano player. However, I like to have my devices fully functional for any cases. I have found a very helpful guide , but with no photos. I made some for better visualization of the repair. First, I unfastened all screws from both sides: Second, I unfastened all screws from a wooden base plate which were holding the part with electronics. Then I unfastened the golden screws holding the whole keyboard to the wood. The keyboard was now accessible from both sides. The last step is described in the following video. It was just removing the sticky keys and reinserting them without a metal spring coming inside. The end of the metal spring has been left outside of the key: So far it works well!

... Shenandoah River

“Almost heaven, West Virginia Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River”   John Denver: Take Me Home, Country Roads Shenandoah National Park is relatively close to NYC. It was May and we already knew that we were moving to Boston at the beginning of June. We only had a couple of weeks to visit this park by car since the distance from Boston would be too ... distant. Sure, there was a lot to pack and do but the mountains simply couldn’t wait. We hit the road early in the morning on May 22nd. The visit of West Virginia was not optional. We made a stop at Harpers Ferry.  We had dinner at a restaurant along the river and of course we made a quick stop at the Appalachian Trail Visitor Center (unfortunately it was closed due to COVID). Harpers Ferry was a beautiful quintessential small town with historical landmarks. At the end of the day we built our tent in Low-Water Bridge Campground . The Shenandoah river was flowing right next to our tent but we were so tired that we did not end up going
