I don't know what it is going to turn out to be. I'll chip in my two cents when I can.

I would like to see HV allowed somewhat, as long as it is a reasonable manner. Ditto on legal car modifications.

Im with Bill on this. It is abit dificult if people who may be inquisitive dont get told how to handle HV & what to be aware of & may injure or kill them selves anyway.

I agree, but I didn't want to turn this into another saftey/HV discussion, so lets keep it on topic here...

 

{ about my bench pic} forgot to quote.

OOh. Wait a while..wify broke the cam. And my hot gun is under an upgrade. Can't let it's work fall behind. If I did every work I get will fall behind.
Will take a bit of time. Don't worry this thread will see it as soon I get a cam.

 

My Bench

Component Rack

And My desktop

Oh and by the way My Monitors and work bench always evolves

Actually the Big one is a 28" View Sonic that came in for repair. I fixed it and the owner is having second thoughts about the monitor.
Next is the 19" Acer which I have merged. The LCD Bios and menu is all HP but the facia and frame work says Acer.

I like to Mix stuffs u know..

 

Love the portable vacuum cleaner, by the mouse.

How did you figured that out?
One needs a vacuum u know...

 

Nice to see your bench is a bit like mine a work in progress!!!!

 

AAh!! I am always, Always upto something. If it is not electronics then it will be ...........Ahem!!.
Well ! u know what I mean.

 

I like the boxes decorated with flowers, cute

two things stand out

1. you should stop smoking, its bad for your health, you'll catch cancer
2. how many hard drives do you have!?

I'm jealous of the vast quantities of junk that guys like you and debe have readily at hand.
I need more junk.

 

Magnet, I have been salvaging components from equipment for many years. A great source of sometimes hard to get parts or are expensive to buy. Computer powersuplys are a great source of Mosfets & shottky diodes. Keep looking dissasembling things is also a great way of learning aswell.

 

Ya , I should quit smoking..bad habit. I think I will when I really settle down.

The hard drives are the ones I used in my MC PC and the Workstation.
In order to move I had to let go of some stuffs.

those HDD's are like 500Gb and 1Tb ones. I am slowly giving away the old 40 to 320 GB ones I used to have before, after transferring the data of course.
They will soon find it's way into the new HT PC that I am currently working on. I am trying to design a frame from plastics. Right now I just manage to make the rear IO panel.

Everything had to be planned in order to make it neat, low noise and tidy.

It's a project. I will post it indefinitely but not now

I've noticed, giant resistors and flybacks on the cheap if you know where to look.
I've also learned a thing or two about shielding and reducing electrical interference by looking at the stuff in old TV's

@ R!f@@, I usually just dissassemble mine and play with the magnets/shiny discs
Noone I know has any need for a 40G HD.

 

Magnet you never know what you might find. Found this neat powersupply in large Xerox copier at the scrap merchants. It aceps 12/24V dc in & 5v DC out @ 6A

Agree with you Magnet,
Rifaa you must have to stop this

 

Smoking is for girls you know R!f@@ Ha ha...But Joking aside in my country if you some people smoking public like on street. It will probably be a she(tand talkin in the cell phone of course) and not a he. And smoking also leave a thin film on things that is hard to remove. Give bad solder joints
I do not know how I shall say this nice and gentle. But I will have a try. R!f@@ YOU ARE A SLOB.....CLEAN UP YOUR DESK

 

R!f@@ YOU ARE A SLOB.....CLEAN UP YOUR DESK

Hey..it's cleaner than before.....I have one rule..

NO ONE TOUCHES ANYTHING ON MY DESKTOP.....PERIOD!

 

YAYY for R!f@@.

 

NO ONE TOUCHES ANYTHING ON MY DESKTOP.....PERIOD!

Until his wife need a tool to pry open a lid. After no success with the Fluke meusurent cables. The probe tips were bended. She goes for a more solid tool a grab the solder iron.

LOL .

 

Is it so that the wife of R!f@@ is opening lids and doing hard labor, while he is vacuuming?

Have they turned the traditional man/woman roles around.... And that's Paradise....
