I thought I'd change this account to a DIY project I'm working on with my dad. It's a steam boiler that powers an engine that runs a generator to make electricity. I thought it could power an eth node, API and website.  I'm definitely a novice with limited coding experience but a good machinist!

That's an impressive project! Building a steam boiler to generate electricity is a unique DIY endeavor. Your combination of skills as a machinist and novice coder will surely lead to a successful outcome. Can't wait to see how it all comes together!
