This Extra-Large, Two-Stage Fume Extractor Really Sucks
Solder fumes are not nice on the lungs; nor are fumes from superglue, epoxy, or a whole mess of other things we often find ourselves using on the bench. Some people might be able to go the fume hood route to toss that all outside, but for the rest of us, there’s fume extractors. [Raph] has produced an extra-large, carbon-filtering, two-stage fume extractor that by all accounts really sucks — it is effective at hoovering up solder fumes up to 10″ from its inlet.
Even better, [Raph] built a battery box for an 18 V cordless tool battery, and broke out banana plugs so this doubles as a variable power supply via a cheap LM2596 based DC-DC converter. It also serves as a speed controller for the fans, which makes us wonder if you can adjust the PSU output and the fan speed independently…
Maximum suckage is achieved through careful baffle design. Check out the blog to see the trial-and-error process at work. Of course, having a 200 mm axial fan and 140 mm blower fan front and rear is going to move some air no matter what. Which is required to get air flow through the 38 mm thick activated carbon filter that should scrub all nasties quite nicely. We aren’t filtration experts but we can agree with [Raph]’s estimate that it will last “a while”.
If you want to roll your own, all of the STEP files are on GitHub, and [Raph]’s blog has an excellent step-by-step build guide. We’ve seen other hacks from [Raph] before, from his dovetailed modular breadboard to the machine that shaped his bed and automation for his camper van.

The image depicts a futuristic scene set on a reddish-orange planet, reminiscent of Mars. In the foreground, a person stands on a large, red structure, possibly a part of a space station or a building, looking up at a white and blue spaceship hovering in the sky. The spaceship has a sleek, angular design with a star emblem on its side, suggesting it might be part of a military or exploration fleet. The sky is a mix of blue and orange hues, with clouds that have a reddish tint, adding to the otherworldly atmosphere. The planet's surface is barren, with a few scattered rocks and a distant horizon. The overall color palette is dominated by reds, blues, and whites, creating a striking contrast.

Trans-Tasman Resources' Taranaki seabed mining project clears first phase of Fast-track process
A company's plan to mine 50 million tonnes of South Taranaki seabed every year has cleared the first hurdle in the Fast-track process.Trans-Tasman Resources (TTR) executive chair Alan Eggers said he was "delighted" the company's application for its Taranaki VTM project had been accepted as complete and would now move on to the next stage of the Fast-track process.
Opponents, meanwhile, are "livid" and have vowed to continue their fight against the project.
TTR wants to mine 50 million tonnes of seabed a year for 30 years in the South Taranaki Bight.
Eggers said the company had identified a world-class vanadium resource that could contribute $1 billion annually to the economy.

Das Bild zeigt zwei Personen in einem Fahrzeug. Auf der linken Seite sitzt eine Person in einem auffälligen, pinken Federkostüm mit einem Kopfschmuck und großen, orangefarbenen Brillen. Der Text über dieser Person lautet "Every European during Eurovision". Auf der rechten Seite sitzt eine andere Person in einem schlichten schwarzen Jackett. Der Text über dieser Person lautet "everyone else". Die Person in der Kostüm ist in ein farbenfrohes, funkelndes Outfit gehüllt, während die andere Person in einem dunkleren, weniger auffälligen Outfit gekleidet ist. Der Hintergrund zeigt die Innenausstattung eines Fahrzeugs, mit Sitzpolstern und einem Teil des Dachs.

A farewell to Pepe Mujica, who recently passed away and really led by example ( ESPAÑOL MÁS ABAJO)
ENG: "He established an agenda of rights that marked his administration by fire; he promoted the 8-hour working day for rural workers when he was Minister of Livestock, and during his term of office, the day of the rural worker was declared, which is celebrated every 30 April; The law on the voluntary interruption of pregnancy (with the main rationale of accompanying women in their decision and not as a mere act of ending a life); the regulation of marijuana consumption, which put Uruguay in the international spotlight as a testing ground for the legalisation of all drugs in order to put an end to a war that only leaves deaths along the way."
ESP: "Consagró una agenda de derechos que marcaron a fuego su gestión; promovió las 8 horas para el trabajador rural siendo ministro de Ganadería, y durante su mandato se declaró el día del peón rural que se celebra cada 30 de abril; el matrimonio igualitario, la ley de interrupción voluntaria del embarazo (con la fundamentación principal de acompañar a las mujeres en la decisión y no como un mero acto de poner fin a una vida); la regulación del consumo de marihuana, con la que puso al Uruguay en la mira internacional como un campo de prueba hacia la legalización de todas las drogas para poner fin a una guerra que solo deja muertos por el camino."

in reply to Fuchsmädchen • • •Das Bild zeigt eine atemberaubende Sonnenuntergangslandschaft. Der Himmel über dem Horizont ist in warmen Farben wie Orange und Gelb erstrahlt, während er sich nach oben in tiefes Blau verändert. Einige wenige, spärliche Wolken schweben im Himmel, die in der Abenddämmerung leicht schwarz erscheinen. Im Vordergrund sind die Silhouetten von Bäumen und Hügeln zu sehen, die sich gegen den Himmel abzeichnen. Die Landschaft wirkt ruhig und friedlich, mit einer sanften Übergangsfarbe zwischen den Farben des Himmels und der dunklen Umgebung.
