Fighting in the Enemy Lines

Competition getting tough and tougher in town area. New and old pioneer compete among them to attract the wild bird 


Fighting in this area where surrounding you located a number of birdhouse.....the preparation is needed and more crazy idea is welcome


My 2nd birdhouse is located in town area where the competition is though. Even though this area called as central walit, however the best man win. Looking to the strategy, i'm should start thinking how to get my birdhouse been more attractive compared to the rest


Here is the criteria required
1. Best External and Internal Sound
2. Used hexagon tweeter for more clear sound distributed to the surrounding 

3. Aroma in the bird house
4. Condition inside to meet the birdhouse requirement


My birdhouse entrance type is using the Open Roof concept which most in that area implemented the Open Roof Concept.  But a few did choose the Window Type or Monkey Hole Entrance


I'd snap some photo. Fighting in the enemy lines getting my head damn crazy....susah mau tido memikir..

Inside the Ultrasonic Container

Mystery has been revealed :)

What so mystery inside the container......it truly a magic when water turn to mist without notice a sound. Did really a magika?

Here is a secret.....trust me, scroll down for the magika reveal


Take note this 3 important items in making this ultrasonic mist maker
1. Ultrasonic Mist Maker - gadget used to generate mist from water
2. Fan - Used for blowing the mist out from container
3 Water Level Sensor - Used the mechanical one. Make your design as simple as possible

Did i forgot something?

The container....where all those components install or attached to it

Once all the components has been installed and attached to the container, you start placing the PVC pipe on top on the container cover. You can choose the direction where the mist will be blow out either to specific area or surrounding. Note the duct position

Here is the T Type PVC pipe. The duct direction for mist in both side


 And if you targeted at the specific area, below is the duct type



The warmed air rises toward the ceiling and forcing the mist distributed at the ceiling will cooling the room temperature. Ceiling is the place where most of heat registered

Please note the theory of hot air rises and cold air sinks

Conventional pattern of DIY Ultrasonic Mist Maker

Happy Sunday to all visitor.....idul-fitri is about now already in 6 days leaving


I've build a few type of DIY Ultrasonic Mist Maker...even though the design is not perfect or robust for end product, at least this can be used and achieve the objective of ultrasonic mist maker


The Ultrasonic Mist Maker come with a number of head...more head means of more mist will be generated. More head come along with price. Get your budget and size of room to supply first before purchasing this Ultrasonic mist maker


Below is the 1st prototype of the Mist maker container. Technically, i'm choosing the small size of container to control the mist from scattered surround where the fan will blow with a huge of mist out from the container. 



Below is the 2nd prototype where i'm selecting polytank as a container. This purposely to avoid running out of water in the container when the main water source is out from supply



The 3rd prototype is where i'm choosing the mid size of container. You can observe improvement for fan location which located a bit away from the container to avoid the contact between mist and fan. This prototype designed for water source come from side of container.




The 4th design is much better and i can say the best design after a number of improvement has been made. The improvement is done on the container size, water level sensor, fan location and  ultrasonic head. Beside, i'm more interested to use the 135 degree PVC shape instead of T-Type.


 


Enjoy the photo. Maybe the next post will be what inside the container.

Small Scale Banana Plantation

Lately, northern area facing the raining season about a week before Hari Raya. It is really a good news for my small scale banana plantation that just located beside my birdhouse. Not only the banana tree growing big, the land exponentially thick undergrowth


Enjoy the photo.....next week full force of strength ......cleaning all this thick undergrowth


Fighting behind the enemy lines.....



Sky at No Limit


Experiment the Internal Sound

I've a number of internal sounds in my sound collection. Some of sounds which i've been used does not look good attracting the wild bird making love and choosing my farm as their home to growth the colony


Internal Sound is different compared to the External Sound. The durability of the external sound does not have equality between sound to sound. Some with durability at 2 weeks or more. 


Whereas the Internal Sound will be played all the time 24 hours none stop. This sound will making bird to stay and building their nest. The External Sound is just or only promoting our birdhouse to young bird. I can say...the King of Sound is belong to Internal Sound. Choosing the right translate to big smile for the owner


Then....how can we judge which the right and good internal sound? External is damn easy...bird circling the most....that the best sound


I'd experiment a few sounds in my sound collection. I got Rosa Internal, Zahara Inap, BabyKing, Baby Sound and etc ...some belong to famous sifu in walit industry


So far, i'm satisfied with the internal sound i've used now. Combination with a number of sounds in one player.....sound experiment is still running....learning is never ending story


Suka pada pepatah dibawah
Internal Sound adalah KING untuk Kerajaan Rumah Burung
External Sound adalah HULUBALANG 
Matinya Hulubalang....boleh dicari ganti
Matinya King.....tumbangnya kerajaan :)





Time to upgrade....

Situation forcing me to change the way i'm keeping all my farming history into blogging. Attaching the photo taken from my old handphone camera into this blog seems look not nice. The pixels is out since stretching the size to meet at least 320x240 pixels. The hp photo pixels is totally out 

Time to upgrade....from sony erricsson



To fujifilm compact camera



and now to DSLR canon. I've no choice...now situation forcing me to become more actively blogging


i like the red casing

Kolam Kanvas

Pelbagai cara boleh digunakan sebagai system penyejuk rumah burung. Bergantung pada budget dan situasi keadaan rumah burung tersebut untuk merealisasikan system penyejuk rumah burung

Penggunaan kolam kanvas dapat mengurangkan suhu dan meningkatkan humidity bagi target area. 

Kali ni DIY concept saya perngabungan 3 cara....kolam kanvas, air hujan buatan dan ultrasonic humidifier

Water supply untuk ultrasonic humidifier ini datangnya dari kolam kanvas.....jadi it will take a year to dry

Snapshot untuk DIY ultrasonic humidifier. Bahagian kiri dan kanan diletakkan span as a water filter that will avoid damage to ultrasonic head



And snapshot when all three method combined into one...3-in-1..mai secawan :)



That ultrasonic humidifier is soundless, the waterfall sound look real and the canvas making the temperature and humidity under control. This 3 methods contribute to what bird dream for :)

And here the results.....birds making nest along this pool.....surely they looking for seaview condo....am i right?

Could be the promise made by walet lelaki :) to his girl ......our future house will facing the seaview 




DIY sometimes can turn to good one or the other side. But those DIY will gain you a lot of experience but it'll cost your pocket out of coin too

Next DIY.....i'm looking for making bird stay at the center not at the corner. Any idea?
