Ooh so they do, and for less than the Wolfram Alpha subscription I don't use any more.

I considered the VDE ones (As they were a bit cheaper) but the insulation on the blades gets scuffed and nasty and there's always screws in deep holes that you can't quite get to with them.

 

[Tinbasherdan]

new leathers and a new helmet. hideously expensive but worth it if i sack it

Aye you can't put a price on a new skin and head.

I will call him fluffy.

He was going to be binned, as he was water damaged.

I have him at home, soon to go to a kids home.

Give the cat to the home and keep Fluffy.......

No.
I like a good pussy.
Plus Mr fluffy will make kids with little or nothing happier than 1 cat.

Walked past a charity shop this morning, outside amongst the rubbish was a 24" tee square. Someone was sorting this pile, so I asked "is it going out or waiting to be priced" "50 pence was the answer if you want it" I gave them a pound, after all it was for charity. I got it home to find it wasn't square, about a 1/4" out over the length. 20 minutes drilling out the rivets, reriveting & a couple extra for luck I now have a good a good square Perhaps not being square was why it was outside.

New headphones, they're the ones that come with the Galaxy S8 and they're without a doubt the best I've ever had. An audiophile would probably tell me they're crap but they sound great to me and they actually stay in my ears, I've even fallen off my bike and they've stayed in. Only got some new ones as I caught my old ones on something and broke the connection in the jack. $100 from Samsung or £10.28 on Amazon.

New (Used) 250W power supply, also because I broke my old one, I'm just not sure how. I've read they don't like being powered up with no load, would it be a good idea to wire a resistor to the 5V+ standby wire?

 

[God mode restorations]

Them head phones are good. I got my galaxy 8 upgrade last week...happy fays

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

I have "Liberated" 4 old computer PSU today, for the cost of an "Americano Coffee"

 

[brightspark]

Wera is good stuff

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

Today I got.

Oh yes, also posted in "show us you vice".

Yes another one.
Another Vice.

£15.
Worth it.


OK. OK. OK!!!!!!!

I have a Vice fetish.

See I admit it.

Do you use it as a bench supply? If so something like this is handy has a switch for the supply start up and fuses.

This is a good help.

Sort of, I bought it to power the 12v motors and 6v lamp (5v will have to do) in a microscope but it'll almost certainly get used as a bench supply. Thanks for the link but I've already cut the ATX connector off and soldered the wires to a switch and a bit of stripboard with a load of screw terminals.

Thoroughly interesting read but it doesn't help me not break headphones and power supplies.

If I'm testing I plug an old hard drive in, gives them enough load to stop them popping

Today I acquired a slap from the wife. There was an advert for the national lottery on the television and the voice over asked 'what would you get the kids if you won'. The reply of a place at boarding school didn't go down too well .
