    Taking stuff apart=fun

    I hope you saved the viewfinder, I'd take it off of your hands for you.

    DIY Geiger Counter

    Photodiodes and solar cells are terrible at detecting radiation, so don't expect to get any useful data out of this circuit. Personally I wouldn't rely on it for safety either. There are a few special photodiodes that are designed for picking up x-rays, but these are quite expensive, and still...

    A junkbox for DIYers

    After about 8 hours of nonstop PHP, it works. Color schemes work! Have fun with your two colors. :-)

    You can just type the country in the search box, but I'll put in a menu. Right now I'm trying to make styles user-customizable, but I'm having a hard time with it.

    Alright, today I added some more PHP madness in there. * Little country flags are displayed next to posts. * You can click on those flags to search by country. * BBCode is supported when posting! Whatchyu guys think?

    Anyone have a a pair of 512MB SODIMM PC133 ram sticks?

    I have an old laptop that I'd like to uprgade (pretty much using just page file right now!), but it wants single data rate ram (PC133). Anyone have a pair of 512MB sticks for it? Idiots on ebay want about 40 dollars a stick!

    BIG capacitor bank

    If you are connecting those caps via PCB traces expect to make a confetti launcher.

    w00t! Search by location finally works. :beer: The key was to have the locations set by IP, and thus have them at predefined values which could then be searched. By clicking on either country or region when you view a post, you see all the other posts in that location. Now when the site...

    College Conspiracy.

    Watch this. A little bit "self promoting" for lack of better words, but it certainly drives home some good points. YouTube - ‪College Conspiracy‬‏ Describes pretty much the reasons I don't plan on attending college. The ability to daydream, innovate and think for yourself will take you farther...

    How to: Not look like a kidiot.

    To me it's obvious when somebody doesn't speak english well (no offence) and I don't mind it. It's just when people start 2 talk like this it really pisses me off becuz its annoying and makes them sound like they were in 4th grade and dont kno how to rite correctly.

    The hell is electricity?

    That's the title of a series of guides I decided to write! A while ago I decided to write a book that would teach people about electricity, but I gave up on that because it became a mundane task. I've been inspired to write again, but this time I remembered that nobody reads books! Therefore I...

    You think that's awesome, you can now preform a google search with your voice on a pc.

    A junkbox for DIYers

    Ah, but random things sold at random prices means random amounts of money in your pocket to buy new random things of your choice. And if those sold random things are larger than the new random things, you just freed a random amount of space in your home. Lord knows I need to...

    A junkbox for DIYers

    Well lately I've been working on a system to ban the IPs of scammers, and ironing out a few bugs in the process. After that I plan on working out a way to have little country flags next to the posts, corresponding to the poster's logged IP. *still wonders why lpf doesn't use the site...*

    What's happened to LPF?

    Idea: New members are linked to a FAQ before their first post? I agree, it kind of gets old. Why not have a "my laser is broken" forum to keep the S/N ratio down in all the other forums?

    5 kiloamps!

    Had I short circuited the cable 5kA would flow, what the nail actually let through is anybody's guess. The 4ga wires did get pretty toasty though.

    5 kiloamps!

    Ohm's law, and I did include the battery's impedance.

    5 kiloamps!

    At 12V is equivalent to 60 kilowatts ...through a nail! This is what I do for fun.

    Trit tubes for sale

    Sorry, my subscriptions were all deleted for some reason... As for the glock, it's probably not too fragile if mounted right, but too bulky it may be.

    Oh no... WL does it again!

    What is this I don't even. Seriously, they mustn't give a rats ass about the laser hobby, because if this sh*t keeps up then the politicians will be all over the subject.
