From earlier post by Bill Young:
The thing I've found that works the best for me is blogging. It's free if you use something like Blogger (www.blogger.com (http://www.blogger.com)) and requires very little time to do. You can post pictures if you want and can also invite others to collaborate with you on the blog so that you can all post items. Blogger has a really simple interface and it keeps track of all the details so you don't have to keep track of links and archiving things. They'll host it on their servers for free or you can upload it by ftp to your server if you want to have it local. People can post comments on your blog if you want them to be able to, or you can turn that off.

If you are more interested in posting lots of pictures than the commentary part then you might look at Flickr (www.flickr.com (http://www.flickr.com)) or one of the other free picture hosting sites. I have customers that post pictures on Flickr as they're building their boats...it's neat to watch the progress. You can also "tag" pictures in Flickr so that people can search them...I found this picture with a search in Flickr for "CNC"

Just some thoughts..take them for what they're worth,
Bill

Hey Dirk,

See you've added a new picture...I've got a few new ones from cutting panels for 20 boats for a local High School.

Anyone else tried blogging?

Hey guys,

If you want to post pictures on Blogger you can use a free program from Google called Hello (http://www.hello.com) to post them. It works well with Blogger and does things like let you post the picture in your blog as a thumbnail if you want and then have the thumbnail link to a larger picture (up to 1024). They also host the pictures for you. It's great if you only want to put a limited number of pictures in a posting...Flickr (http://www.flickr.com) or something similar might be a better choice if you want to do a photo album with lots of pictures.

2 quick notes. First I've added a posting with some pictures about a visit to David Buchsbaum's shop to my blog at http://seaside5592.blogspot.com . It's a great shop...check it out.

I've also started a Jamboree blog at http://shopbotjamboree.blogspot.com that I'll try to keep regularly updated over the next couple of days.

I thought that I would take the time to let everyone know that I am slowly working my way into a blogger. Took me a little time to figure out how to post pictures. But I have that all figured out.

I have a blog that's been running since 2003, except for about a year when our server was slightly damaged due to being hijacked by a spammer to as to send important body-improvement info to needy folks in Brazil and Portugal.

However, my weblog, called "The Adventures of Bloggard," has been restored and is back underway, and can be found at http://bloggard.com. I must admit that I do not discuss my various projects, ShopBot or otherwise, very much on this weblog.

Instead is is filled with over 400 'micro-stories' which many people find funny, absurd, touching, or weird. The stories are mostly true, except for a few lies, and sometime epiphanies.

In addition to the micro-stories, there are a number of 'wisdom logs' which describe some law of the human experience. Some people find these funny. Other folks find them true. There is also a 'Fortune Cookie' which often will give you something to think about when you visit.

I imagine that many of you older botters will relate to the micro-stories, as the stories go back in time, to an earlier time that you will remember.

I apologize that I have very little about my ShopBot projects in The Adventures of Bloggard, but ... well, you'll see.

Paco's area (http://pacosarea.blogspot.com/)

Some days ago I posted on servicing the Milwaukee 5625 brushes (http://pacosarea.blogspot.com/2007/01/servicing-milwaukee-325hp-router-5625.html)... the bearing failed today so I should be posting on that part in a few days (when I'll get the new ones). Stay tunned!

Nice job Paco!!

My bearings will be needing replacing soon so, I'll be looking forward to your posting on bearing replacement.

Hey Bill!

Thanks! I have myself benefit from such detailed procedure in the past from various source (now friends for the most) so I'm very happy when I can contribute... and being told that it help is the cherry on top!

If you're planning on replacing any parts soon, I strongly advise to order them NOW. Make this a overall maintenance tune up. Get the brushes set, both bearings, a collet shank (this nut is tighten at 16.5 ft-lbs from the specs. with lock nut compound; mine threads were all stripped) and why not get both (tree?) collets sizes with nuts while at it. Only the collets are somewhat expensive, the other parts are VERY affordable so I think it's a good idea to have spare handy.

Bearings need a press to be remove and reinstalled.

More later...

Well that is a pretty clean shop Jeff! Even your Bot doesn't have any dust. A lot of room to dance around. I'm in envy!

Keep posting!

Not sure if the qualifies as a blog... but check out http://www.habitatforbats.org/forum

I'm going to give this a try and see if I can stop emailing the same thing 30 times a month :-)

I've not made it known on the main webpage yet though it is open. I was hoping some of you guys might have a bat question or two and be willing to give it a dry run. You do have to register to post, experience dictates. Suggestions welcome.

I guess I should add a Bat Bot topic too!

heres one there that says
I purchased a bat house at leas 3 years ago and was told to hang it high and perferably on a warmer south side of the house. I hung it on a brick chimney as highs as possible, maybe 20 feet above ground. The fireplace rarely gets used except at christmas so its not active but i'm wondering why no bats use it.
I know we have them in te area as they can be seen at night catching mosqitoes in summer.
Whats up?

I added a guest book. I still have to format it and change the colors but it is up and running. http://www.habitatforbats.org/guestbook/gbook.php

The addition of the new security rules has all but killed the forums, I guess I can understand that. It was taking too many obscene and nude posts to keep up with. I am still reviewing the features and I think if I can figure it out I am going to allow anonymous posts but with moderation.

Admins forgive me, but Sam has her horse blog online. http://samshorse.blogspot.com/

our blog is not necessarily shop bot related (mostly snowboarding) however it does chronicle our company's development, which now includes a shop bot prt!
i will update the blog with progress as we continue to learn to work with our new bot.
thanks for viewing!
