A person (me) is painting the upper part of a wall using a long-handled roller in a small room with tiled lower walls. The person is smiling toward the camera and wearing a light work shirt with sleeves rolled up. A mirror and a cabinet are mounted on the wall behind them, and a plastic sheet covers part of the area near a wall-mounted device. Sunlight enters through a tall window on the right, showing the rooftops of nearby buildings outside.

Barista or Painter? Part 2
Testing the old manual method for comparison.
The result is clear: the traditional method works fine for the walls, while the spray setup is much better for the ceiling and corners.
The tech part? That small box contains a NodeMCU v3 and a DHT22 temperature and humidity sensor, installed in 2018.
Today I am also a painter. But I am a Barista and a nerd every day 🙂
