The rest of the post wasn’t as enticing?

After some lube experimentation (stock is some standard lithium grease), Billy the Kid! Ride em Cowboy!

Wow, such sad news…

I seem to love the meta hobby work - probably a bit too much. I have learned that about myself over the years and it’s something I can’t seem to undo..

Wait wat? maybe at least JCF Bach?

Here are two other good local Austin options: https://wildgiftcoffee.com/ https://greatergoodsroasting.com/

I wonder if you can still get the bottle deposit refund .. I have a bunch of them.

Why didn’t I think about this!

I like it! Nice to see all the security features too.

Pretty pricy! I use 3M Marine Paste wax - smells nice too!

Or maybe just a jet and an out building in AR

I would measure the temperature of the PCB and the free air around the output stage in both configurations…

I did some wiring clean-up on this side of my server… now just need to do the other side!

I got a complimentary upgrade!

That’s really cool!

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?

New cartridge in the house!

I could probably do that pretty easily! I would need some pretty steady hands though

.. 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

honestly though, anyone know what commercial speakers they might be used in?

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

Has anyone heard the Russian Viawave ribbons? http://viawave.ru/en/products

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.
