Do sheds spontaneously combust 1? I have been warned that the half full tins of paint I have in mine could do something like that if the shed gets too hot. This is the perfect opportunity to build the arduino powered monitoring system that I have been wanting to build, but had no reason to. Maybe the fire extinguisher first though. Seems to be a lot to buy right now!
I could do with some fire extinguishers for the house anyway, always worries me a bit being on three stories with a narrow staircase. You can't really get them colour coded to match your decor though.
Ooh MakerBot 2 Replicator 2:
Been around for a while but the resolution just got a lot better. This still feels slightly the stuff of science fiction. [s]It's all open source hardware too[/s] It WAS all open source 3, it not now! Anyway they are in a funny situation where some rum cove has taken the design to chinese manufacturers and is offering a direct copy of the earlier model (not an open source friendly remix mashup reboot or improvement) made in China at a cheaper price, hmm.
Man alive I'm in work early today, half an hour earlier than my half hour early start time, because Clare needs to drop the boy off at the grandparents this morning before she goes to work.
