I have gotten a lot of requests on how my door opener worked so I decided to post a small tutorial and story about it. I love electronics and computers and I wanted a way to easily yet, effectively make something that used both together so I decided to make this.
At first, I started by figuring out how the mechanics of it would all work. I didn’t have counter weights or motors at this point. I didn’t plan this out at all, I started placing eye hooks on the wall of the close position of the door and the open position of the door. I also put eye hooks on the door it’s self. I placed all these eye hooks at the top of the door where it would be best out of the way. After manually opening and closing the door with the fishing line I used, I wanted to be able to still freely open and close the door. So after about 30 minutes I discovered counter weights and how they would be the base of the entire project.
Check out the video demonstration.

Well after bricking two of my Foneras I decided to take a break from swapping out the firmware and adding a second antenna to my third Fonera. Now, I’m not a very good solderer but I when ahead anyways. I cut out an antenna out of a bricked Fonera so there would be not wasting and stripped and separated the wires and began soldering
And there we have it, what I call my bunny Fonera.
After I get the dd-wrt installed on an other Fonera I will install it to this one. I’m very please with my work and I hope you are too.
