Built a swingset for my kids from scratch and with $15 internet plans. Did it in about 2 weeks in April with the help from my dad. Had to modify the plans some, but it turned out great. Just waiting to put a tube slide on the right side, once the start shipping again. Will also replace the yellow slide with a longer wavy slide because it was too steep. Had to get creative with the slides I found on facebook marketplace.

I sewed this camping hammock for backpacking and such. Got a tarp ordered, but might sew a more basic tarp of my own to go with. We'll see.

Made a reel stand for pulling some Cat 6 at home. The 19" rack I ordered has been delayed by Texas weather

The guys who pulled some Belden Cat6A for me just ran the handle of a conduit bender through the center of the spool and hung it under an 8-foot ladder. 2/23/2021 2:32:22 PM

I don't have an 8-foot ladder.
I cheaped out and went with Cat 6 over 6A. I didn't think it was worth the additional cost for a DIY home network with limited length runs. 2/24/2021 1:35:47 PM

I went with the Belden Cat 6A because I wanted to be guaranteed future proof for 10 GBE and I also happened to be able to snag a spool off eBay for <20% of retail. That's stuff can be more than $1/foot which is crazy. 3/1/2021 1:38:13 PM

Do you anticipate a need for 10GbE beyond future proofing?
Cat 6 supports 10GbE up to 55m, which is long enough for what I'm doing. I'm hoping for HDBaseT at some point. Doubt I'll ever actually need 10GbE.-] 3/2/2021 1:39:18 AM

It's future proofing, but I'm sure I'll move that way once 10 GBE prices drop some more. Maybe I'll do 2.5 or 5 GBE first. Modern SSDs will saturate a 1 gbps connection.
It's a crap shoot about whether or not cheap CAT 6 cable will allow 10 GBE speeds or not. So, since I got a good deal, why not go with name brand CAT 6A guaranteed to work at 10 gbps.
WiFi is getting faster, but still tends to use 1 gbps backhaul. 3/4/2021 12:06:50 PM
