Very majestic views!

Thank you, Gunther. I am definitely trying to do that. Yesterday we went to Mt Karakuni.

I took this on the way up. You can hear the sound of the steam even at our campsite more than 2km away.

This is Mt Shinmoe from the top of Mt Karakuni. Shinmoe means New Burning Mountain, and you can see why. It is still off-limits.

Hey Namabiiru,

That looks like an adventure! Wow, I can even see sulphur deposits in the photos. Didn't it smell really foul, like sulphur? I imagine you have to be really careful where you step so you don't slip, right?

In any case, it looks like fun... Great photos!

I'm here for adventure!

Yes! We could smell it in many places. For me, it’s a very nice smell because it’s the smell of hot springs! I love Japanese hot springs!

And if you're here for adventure (@DerezzedDragon ), this was our hike around the rim of an old volcano yesterday:

At least the clouds prevented us from seeing how far we were going to fall if the wind blew us over the edge.

That's terrifying but also really cool O.O gives me flash backs to a couple hikes I did in utah

Ahoy Nababiiru,

Wow, that's tough going! Not only is there wind, but fog too. Respect, but you have to be extremely careful. Here in Europe, hikers fall to their deaths in droves because they are reckless and don't stick to the hiking trails. But I wish you and your loved ones a wonderful and fantastic holiday!

Oh, yes, I always try to be very careful. Too many things yet to be done for me to go and get myself killed.

I seem to have hijacked my own thread

Anyway, the pulse width modulator I ordered arrived while I was in Kyushu and a quick ops check indicates it works even better than I had expected.

So now I need to make a set of pulleys, but that means I first need to build a circle-cutting jig for the bandsaw, which in turn requires that I construct a fence for the bandsaw…Anyone else ever face an endless regression of projects?

Anyone else ever face an endless regression of projects?

Yes, but my chain of prerequisites always seem to end up back to where the first item on the list is a prerequisite for the last - an endless loop - often nothing at all gets done as my mind explodes.
