I found a 2.3mm receptacle contact with a lantern-type spring insert, which should be able to tolerate some radial misalignment without too much change in the mating force. I've been toying with the idea of a multi-part jack. The pin center diameter was chosen to be 10.75mm in order to accommodate the Stax, the Hifiman and the less accurate Kaldas plug with the acrylic base. The contact retainer washer is made from Teflon which also gives a bit of flexibility. The connector and shell can be made from PEEK but I can't help trying the PEI (Ultem). Its translucent color matches with the gold plated contacts quite well. There are two variations of the design, with the retainer sandwiched between the shell and the cap, and with the retainer secured flush with the cap. The latter requires better precision from machining.

Went from Via To They say that moving is a major life stressor. I can believe it. It's almost like I feel a year older! Time for bed!

Yeah, I always felt that way too. This is a fun read. https://reactormag.com/all-cats-have-three-names-reclaiming-logans-run-the-novel/

I have been going down the anamorphic rabbit hole for ages now. The more I learn, the less I know. I have discovered some fascinating bits of trivia along the way. This guy's 🇫🇷 accent is something else, but the camera is spectacular in its insanity. Also, Cool Story Bro: the fence at the 4 minute mark in the video is a rather famous one in Paris. A guy I know on Flickr photographed it in 2006 with an 85L. Note the 1/8000 shutter speed. His 5D classic was crying.

Peter Doig built a sound system using parts from old cinemas and then Brian Eno did a DJ set on it.

1.25L DC - 🤘

^^ I remember watching that last month, and I don't think I shared it. My main disappointment is that it cannot be restored. The footage does not seem to exist. So it just made me sad. I remember the last time I watched the movie, I didn't know these issues, but things just felt off. I didn't catch the continuity issues directly.
