How to connect Catenary lines to power? I have just started to learn and I have inherited this H0 marklin set from the 60s. I have connected the rails to power no problem, can’t figure out how the catenary is supposed to be connected?? Grateful for tips! Google was not helpful in this matter..

45W MagSafe 2 wasn’t working so I opened her up. Very surprised! Anybody have any idea how this could happen? It looks like a violent (high voltage) short circuit? Could it be bad soldering? Sorry if this is maybe a more electrical engineering question, wondering if anybody had seen smthing similar

Bought this beautiful Macintosh SE/30 today. No mouse or startup disk. (I’m not familiar with these old systems). Is it possible to use any 90s PS2 mouse? Are there any good wikis on What software one can use/OS to Install/What can be achieved one of these old machines? Very grateful for pointers!!

I found an extremely old box of ammunition in the basement a while ago. I have never seen these calibres before, does anybody recognise them? (Ignore the 12 gauge shells behind). The rest of the box was full of Second World War 7.62mm ammunition (very cool)the numbers on the bottom have faded away!

At the end of ”The Interview” (2014) a tank round hits a helicopter. I would have expected a small entry puncture and a large exit hole on the other side of the helicopter. Thus this digital animation seems very strange showing the entry side tearing apart like this? Is this technically accurate?

Breathing life in to a tiny AC motor from 1949. Have I wired it correctly? I know I have currently flowing, and I get sparks when connecting the last wire to the copper spool as in the drawing. I have taken it apart and cleaned and reassembled... but it just won’t start spinning!

Anybody know what calibre these are and what rifle they might have been used in? Markings from left to right: “Norma N”, “Geco” and on the right “Norma 8mm m/98”. I suspect the middle one is .22LR?

Phillips FSQ-vision. PAL. When I plug in my Playstation 2 in with RGA the picture colour comes up fine. If I plug in my laptop with HDMI to RGA converter I get black and White. Everything is PAL. Any suggestions?

My beloved butter knife (smorkniv) snapped in two. Is there a way to repair it to regain its structural strength? Is simple wood glue sufficient? Perhaps one could create a “<<“ slot by filing so the handle slots further inside the blade, creating greater overlap? Too advanced?
