  1. I did some wiring clean-up on this side of my server… now just need to do the other side!
  2. I got a complimentary upgrade!
  3. That’s really cool!
  4. New speed monitor (tach) installed but still having issues with other light sources causing it not work (incandescent bulbs in the ceiling) 😤 I guess either I need more infrared light or a ir pass filter?
  5. New cartridge in the house!
  6. I could probably do that pretty easily! I would need some pretty steady hands though
  7. .. and updated version of my optical speed controller sensor! The original sensor I was using was a victim to pandemic stock levels and I wasn’t happy with the IR filter used. This version also was designed to fit into half of a small enclosure - I would put a sticker or label over the trimmer in the end (or use fixed resistors) but needed to have it available to prototype the comparator sensitivity. I will probably glue dot it to the plinth, no components are soldered to the bottom of the board. I did spec out a actual jack on the board, but having issues finding a mini stereo connector that is more or less the same diameter as the barrel, ensuring it doesn’t stick out below the enclosure - not sure if anyone has a recommendation there. In fact a male-female extension cable that is low profile would work just fine too IMG_0038.MOV
  8. honestly though, anyone know what commercial speakers they might be used in?
  9. Recent purchase
  10. IMG_0024.MOV Jasper (the kitten) taking advantage of a carefully chosen position against Cinnamon.
  11. Here is how the above turned out in the end - black on the inside channels and blue on the outside.. now takes about 3 days to cure and then will bolt it on the trailer
  12. Has anyone heard the Russian Viawave ribbons? http://viawave.ru/en/products
  13. I cut down and then modified two pieces of galvanized steel to make a customized winch holder and bow rest - welded them together and painted over the galvanizing - going for a two tone look. Then mast cradle will fit in the channel and help keep the two pieces together. I guess I am literally watching paint dry at the moment.
  14. Here are a few of my projects modified a rigid floor inflatable boat to mount a helm. It’s a bit wobbly - as I just used a square hole washer with teeth and a bit of epoxy. I probably need to run a stringer underneath perpendicular to the two legs and tap a hole there. The issue is I can’t access underneath once the floor is in. So here I had to pull up on the carriage bolts as I tightened them. I also affixed a custom boat registration plate and affixed this Scotty holder to mount the solar powered throttle, wireless. That adhesive is pretty foul stuff, definitely get a nice contact high using it.
  15. I would think that option would pretty low tech.. ok, what about Windows Hello? It’s the facial detection login.
  16. Why not give each user a token and have them use NFC (or plug it into the computer) to switch accounts. Something like: https://www.yubico.com/blog/password-less-login-with-the-yubikey-5-comes-to-microsoft-accounts/ https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/360013708460-Yubico-Login-for-Windows-Configuration-Guide
  17. Isn’t that also patented by Larry?
  18. Shorted turn from the transformer cover?
  19. A collaboration with a certain northeastern master semiretired circle hole cutter, I present a panel ammeter that has a plain, not hip rgb light source. working on a second so we can compare two different dials and will play a bit with the LED backlight placement
  20. We can’t have nice parts, but never fear! We can have glass PCBs!
  21. Definitely see how Steve thought that was an XLR Jack and two RCAs
  22. Working on a motor mount.. I probably will cut off the excess above the pipe, but it made the weld a bit easier to do and get everything aligned
  23. Thank you all! It was a nice day!
  24. Sounds like a sticky situation!
  25. Ok, thanks! I will just have to do then.
