Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
I just make them myself. The usual suspects won't do them because the piece has to be turned to a 90 degree side. There is a special countersink bit for socket head screws that makes it pretty easy.

Schiit Mjolnir
I am curious if anyone knows, in the newer version that JP has, is the tube used to convert the cyclotron output to single ended? Or is it also used in the balanced output? Seems odd to me.

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
So, my tool wouldn't do this, so I had to create a ground pour and attach it to each pin in the bottom, then subtract the solder mask via a pin swell parameter. I used the minimum annular ring on the part itself. I am getting the Gerbers ready to quote, so we will see. Ok, ordered. Interestingly, I ran it through OSH Park to see if they would kick anything back, and their board rendering showed the increased pin mask swell on the top as exposed copper, even though under the solder mask swell on the top there isn't any copper. That's odd. I ended up ordering from PCB Way, as I got better lead-time and 2 more boards. Chose immersion gold, next step up in board thickness and 2 oz copper, and blue - the last three options best OSH. The FR4 spec that OSH uses was considerably more, not sure the what the Tg difference really entails. Shouldn't matter for my use. I was tempted to have them delivered to me in China, but didn't want to risk mail routing issues. I couldn't use Elecrow or Seeed because I exceed their width for their prototype (my boards are 12.5" wide) options. I still will use Elecrow for assembly though and maybe for another daughter board I need to whip up next.

Part Sourcing Assistance/Advice Thread
marginally related, but... Does anyone know if a PCB fab will honor asymmetric ring sizes, as long as the annular ring specifications are met? So, basically I want the minimum ring size for the hole on the top of the PCB, but a significantly larger ring on the bottom? I don't see why not, I could accomplish the same thing with a ground pour and the subtracting from the solder mask...

Sennheiser HD 800 Redux
If the HD800S is great (ordered one), I may sell my HD800, interested? If they are significantly different, I may keep both. I love the hD800. Sure! I would love to give it another spin.

DIY cable gallery
Does anyone know someone that might be willing to "balance" a set of J-cable A-T headphones? Either keep it a J and use a TRRS cable (need the verify it isn't this way already), or convert it to a Y. Just looking to farm out the work

Just found one on EBay. No idea what these go for on the used market, just threw a bid on and won!

So, having the proper radio can make a difference- Deals
Is that their steambox hardware, essentially? Yes So it can be Steam Box ified? I can't seem to tell when the deal will end, is it just me?- Watches
Well, I basically have two of the same watch (to the uninitiated). In reality one is an automatic and one is a HEQ, one is black dialed and one is white, one is no-date with gorgeous symmetry and the other has a date function. To most that would seem odd.- Deals

You can put a nylon screw and three nuts through the tabs on the diodes to give them more structure.- Watches
I don't expect anyone to understand- Watches
Well, the larger Grand Seiko limited JDM antimagnetic which has the 9S65, to go with the smaller HEQ version: http://www.ablogtowatch.com/grand-seiko-sbgr077-sbgr079-magnetic-resistant-watches-hands/- Opera
There are two Esoteric Ring sets on YPJ! That started at low bids. Curious to see what he free market values these at.- Schiit Mjolnir
They will likely work just fine.- kgst
Yeah, good news is that they are cheaper I was looking at Octopart last night and noticed that their descriptions of the parts hinted that they are different. I haven't dug into the datasets yet.- kgst
Kerry, have you compared the Supertex and Microchip versions of the DN2540?- What are you reading now?
I managed to trick my Kindle to get the HarperCollins version from Amazon UK.- What are you reading now?
Any chance it was the Kindle version? Is it as badly typeset as the reviewers say?- What are you smoking right now?
