  1. Interesting option for quick and dirty wood cases: https://www.inventables.com/technologies/ply90-corner-brackets
  2. I am looking for a small, relatively inexpensive, VPN router box for a small office. Does anyone have a suggestion of where to look? Budget is a few hundred dollars -- more than a cheapo consumer model, less than an enterprise level box. Ability to be configured by an idiot who doesn't know much about this stuff (i.e. me) would be most helpful. Sonicwall is the name that keeps popping up, but I am not sure if that is the right solution or not. I would use pfSense, but so far as I can tell, there are no Windows VPN clients that work with it that allow one to connect at login (instead requiring one to log in and then connect to the VPN). As stupid of a requirement as that is, it is a real one.
  3. I was college buddies with the guy who started Secretly Canadian. There are good stories that involve him, a 1lb bag of powdered sugar donuts from the Big Foot gas station, being the King of Bloomington, and his MBA roommate who looked like Sam the eagle.
  4. Dill, smoked paprika, cumin, cayenne, onions, carrots, and garbanzo beans over rice is excellent. Put some yogurt and mint on it, too. Also, zucchini slices, cream cheese, and dill on pumpernickel is pretty good.
  5. 260mm x 36mm x 11mm with 2mm wide and 2mm deep rabbets cut in them.
  6. Just shy. I had a piece of almost the same size I tried to will into a pair of sides with no luck.

  8. A couple of initial pics ...
  9. First orders should ship on Tuesday. Some pics from the production process ... Wood sides curing on the shop floor. Some front panels just out of the laser engraver (and not yet cleaned) A batch of populated boards just out of the solder oven. A fully populated board undergoing its first tests.
  10. Ha! I don't imagine Justin is concerned.
  11. It would be possible. For it to be thin enough to not have a lip, it would not have enough strength, so it would have a small lip. And it probably still wouldn't be strong enough.
  12. I like the RCAs. I do wish they would buy some sand paper to take out the tool marks. Most importantly, a design like this would be pretty easy to replicate by anyone with access to a maker space with a small CNC, and an open source headphone design would be a fun DIY project. Probably why they are not talking about what driver they are using.
  13. Have you ever been there when the guy parks his ice cream truck next to the line, and plays the ice cream truck music non stop? Makes the mere long line seem like bliss. What's amazing to me is that with the thousands of hot dog places in Chicago, so few competitors to Hot Doug's have emerged.
  14. Usually between May 8th and 10th, and then again from September 28th to the 30th. Unless it rains.
