Atomic batteries to power, turbines to speed, coffee to stomach.. 18:45:26, 2011-09-12
That superglue seems to have done the trick! Getting a bit past-it tho, so will leave it to cure a while longer. 19:02:35, 2011-09-12
I think the older I get the more I empathise with Invader Zim. 19:06:28, 2011-09-12
Oooh, that old portable DVD player display I've got is 7". That touch-screen I picked up from the hackspace might fit it! 19:12:33, 2011-09-12
@thepandalion Pertinent to your interests: http://t.co/TQXSLaA 19:16:20, 2011-09-12
Urge to make "pew-pew" noises.. rising.. 19:17:38, 2011-09-12
@sevenhelz 'Tis unlikely. The filthy things myself and The Massive get up to are currently confined only to my imagination. in reply to sevenhelz 19:29:53, 2011-09-12
Have started just opening old packets of components rather than trying to translate the hand-written scrawl on the outside. 19:35:24, 2011-09-12
Seven MM74HC161N ICs. "Synchronous Binary Counter with Asynchronous Clear". Good for frequency counter maybe? #PartsTrawl 19:38:52, 2011-09-12
Five M74HC85B1 ICs. "4-BIT MAGNITUDE COMPARATOR" Ummm. Okay. Could be of use in something. #PartsTrawl 19:44:03, 2011-09-12
Three "DUAL 2-TO-4 LINE DECODER/DEMULTIPLEXER" Trying to think what the person I got these from was going to make.. 19:46:18, 2011-09-12
Okay, not going to list all of them. I really should take proper inventory of the things sometime tho. 19:46:43, 2011-09-12
@penguat @inmywindow And now I'm humming the theme to "Bewitched". in reply to penguat 19:56:32, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow Good grief! O_O in reply to inmywindow 20:03:06, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow You're a Thermos of tea away from a perfect journey :) in reply to inmywindow 20:05:55, 2011-09-12
Trying to remember the name of a tool. Like a transfer-punch, but you screw it into holes, like a sharpened bolt. 20:07:53, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow oooh, will remember that for folks visiting. in reply to inmywindow 20:08:53, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow For £10 a night, I'm tempted to go there just to take a break from home for a few evenings. in reply to inmywindow 20:12:02, 2011-09-12
@penguat No.. you put in in something with existing tapped holes so you can mark mounting points on another surface. in reply to penguat 20:12:48, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow I like my bed, but I seem to sleep more intensely in strange places. Think my body sleeps deeper faster, just in case. in reply to inmywindow 20:19:19, 2011-09-12
@inmywindow And might well do after Expo. Until then I gotta keep preparing. :/ in reply to inmywindow 20:19:51, 2011-09-12
I liked a @YouTube video http://t.co/C0hAD3X Silent Movie Trailer 20:25:01, 2011-09-12
Good grief, I YT "liked" that video over a week ago! YouTube does not update Twitter quickly. :P 20:27:23, 2011-09-12
It's not a steadycam, but drilled & tapped three holes, & now the broken divers camera rig is a homebrew "fig rig". Should make vids better. 20:53:33, 2011-09-12
Experimenting with the Thixotropic before shutting up for the night. 21:30:18, 2011-09-12
You'd think hazardous chemicals would have better pouring spouts.. 21:38:11, 2011-09-12
Okay, working with thixotropic makes silicone like painting with very sticky smooth mud. Tricky, but don't need a lot to cover. 21:57:13, 2011-09-12
It looks like I have the worlds largest and thinnest iced donut on my bench. http://t.co/TVv6UTo 22:04:47, 2011-09-12
Indoors again now. Going to have a shower. Uploading that Twitpic crashed Chrome. Weird. 22:15:18, 2011-09-12
So many stunning cosplayers on DeviantArt seem to be in Russia. 22:26:57, 2011-09-12
No, must not look at food-porn. All I have in the fridge are some mini hotdogs. 23:01:42, 2011-09-12
Also, punches I was looking for earlier are heimann transfer punches. Apparently only sold in the USA, and expensive. 23:03:41, 2011-09-12
Will try and put some steel bolts aside. May make my own. Find hardened steel pins, drill a push-fit hole for it in head of bolt. 23:05:12, 2011-09-12
And I need a "slave flash" for my camera. Filter built-in flash so IR flash sets of remotes. Maybe for xmas. 23:08:36, 2011-09-12
