Thank you for your insight! I am getting closer!

I just wanted to recreate the device my dad made with me as a kid

I appreciate it, I didn’t realize it was so temporary

Apologies for not being clearer. What I mean to describe is a magnetizer - something that you might put a metal tool through to make it magnetic

Don’t apologize. It is mine and I struggle. Thanks for elaborating

Can you help me with something? When I read “all but resolved“ I think it’s been everything apart from being resolved? Am I cursed‽

Oh no

Thanks- I got the thing running through a breadboard power adapter of all things, to confirm the pump was still living, so I will try what you linked! I am beginning to wonder if I wired my last adapters’ poles. So, this might have been user error on my part, doh!

Hopping in here to thank y’all for your insight. It’s been an educational morning!

Forgive my ignorance, what’s Real Debrid?

I’ve been really appreciating Fastmail. It’s paid, but I was finally able to leave Gmail behind
