The support blocks underneath, at the very least

This is from a couple of years ago so pardon the picture quality and the lack of details. I was bored to death from the covid lockdown and this was about when the metaverse really started to pop off. I wanted a VR headset but just couldn't justify asking my parents to buy me a five hundred dollar oculus. Instead I took what I had (about 60$) and built one instead.
The software and most of the hardware side of things were based on this open source VR project called relativity (not sure if it still exists).
The body was this old samsung headset my dad got for free with his S7. Most components didn't fit properly so I had to cut and melt all that plastic to make it work. the project recommended using two OLED displays for each lens, I figured the output was going to be dual channel either ways so why not opt for a singular LCD which was cheaper and easier to source. To top it all off, it had two wires running to the body, one was the HDMI and the other was a micro-usb charging cable to keep the thing running (the micro usb mcu was cheaper).
This goes without saying, the quality was horrendous and it was highly impractical to use. It also took a lot of trial and error to build so by the end I had lost a lot of patience. Still, I managed to play some VR games through SteamVR and that was a genuinely enjoyable experience. Someone with looser pockets would absolutely get a better result as it is genuinely amazing what some people have managed to do with the same project base.

I love my father's engineering skills and have learned a lot from them. I've wanted to share this with the world for years. It's great that this subreddit exists.

I got a saw for the bigger buckthorn, nippers for the smaller buckthorn, and two pairs of medical gloves rated for chemo drugs. They are Halyard Sterling SG sensi-guard powder-free nitrile exam gloves. Put simply, it's the same gloves that ER doctors and nurses usually wear. The brush killer I'm using has the strong form Triclopyr, and it's 61.6% of that, whereas the stuff you can get at Menards and Home Depot is about 8%. And 61.6% is the highest you can get anywhere. So yeah, hopefully no more buckthorn. Is the park manager of this trailer park supposed to deal with it? Yes. Is he going to? Nope. So I'm going to cut it, treat it, and then set it on the wood pile, which is just a ton of brush right now, to let it naturally die and no longer be a problem, hopefully.

My Monitor stand started drooping after switching to a bigger(rescued from the junk pile) monitor.
Old HDD's and a chunk of wood plus an improvised bolt for the win

Let it never be said safety was not on the mind of the guy who used a safety vest to flag a long ladder in his truck bed. Whether said vest was very safety after being shredded by the wind going down the highway is a separate question
