Yet Another Pi Case. This one is for riding in my backpack. The Altoids can is where three 2000 mAh cells will go, which should run it for over eight hours. (I’ll probably put the cells in the Altoids can. One less trigger for ignorant gawkers: “OMG! It’s a box with lights and wires and three purple cylinders!”)
I gave the box a wipe with the dregs of the stain using a decaying foam brush. It either looks rustic or like I was eating a melting chocolate bar. The oval cutout has a pane of glass in it. Tempered, I hope.
The Altoid 6000 mA/h power pack is live! Hopefully it should power the project for up to 8 hours, but I suspect the high-gain TP-Link WN-822N WiFi adapter in server mode might cut into that.
It turns out that the WiFi adapter can’t be powered by a Pi2 USB port, but a Pi3 port can. So, it’s time to do a Pi-swap with my PiCrate project, which will be a pain due to all the display jumpers that have to be unplugged/replugged. sigh
What’s the circuit? Got a schematic? I’ve made several small guitar amps using the Ruby design. In fact I think there’s one in this thread, ^^^ way up there.
I actually just had a kit that included the major components of the amp so it was mostly a matter of soldiering them together and turning the old volt meter case into a housing.
My duaghter (4yo) and I collaborated on the LadyGoose’s mother’s day card. We made some paper dolls capturing her heroic traits. My daughter named them "“Warrior Chef,” “Flower Princess” and “Spider Catcher”
Made a pedalboard today with Tachin_Jr
I had some pine boards laying around from another project, I had stained them but they were left outside for some time.
A few pedals, waiting for a delay pedal and left space for another project I’m working on, I’m going to touch up some of the more visible blemishes and get some new patch cables to tidy up the wiring.
It looks like the test is tomorrow. Perfection is the enemy of progress, but the calendar is the enemy of both. So it’s tomorrow, or forget it until the fall.
Just finished a gift for a relative, who is graduating from high school this weekend and will be studying computer science come fall. I first thought of doing a BSOD or a terminal window, but knew I’d get bored doing so many blue or black stitches.
