Rube Goldberg Eat Your Heart Out!

My in-house tinkerer has completed his weekend project, the garden hose timer.
Here's a shot of the gizmo's front:

Here's a shot of it's internal structure:

You hook your water source up to the washing machine valve at the top and then you hook your soaker hose to where the copper pipe comes out -- look at the soldering!   He does such fine work.

And because I'm still tinkering with embedding video you of course get a short video of the inaugural timed soaking:

The downside of adding video seems the time it takes to load the page is obviously a lot longer than it used to be.  I think after the newness of this wears off I will do it less often.

Darn, I was going to go into the city today and see RobKnits at StitchDC, but it's now 4pm and I was even in Arlington to feed some friends' kitties.  Where did my day go?

Hush up. Or else I'll tell mom...I don't know what but I'll tell her something!

I got all my oils from Sprouts - a health/organic foods stuff store. It is with the health & beauty stuff. Of course, there is always the internet.
Just a note, your video does not come up at all for me.
