Been up in our attic running speaker wires and stuff and found this ... crutch... thing? It’s very good, based on size we’re guessing probably made for the lady of the couple that built the house.

I'm learning the limitations of cheap RFID readers. but apparently 1/4 in or less of wood is a non issue. Also making your own .1 in ribbon cables is tedious but worth it.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen more pins in a single connector. It’s an 8 port serial adapter.

Somehow the end of the power button plunger  broke off in my 7800. Simple but effective solution: replace power switch with a version that’s 7mm taller.

I was brought a ZX81 with this kind of odd 3.5mm jack AV mod to install. No suggestions on how to mount it and someone had previously gone in and pulled out the RF circuitry so I machined a chunk of HDPE to hold it in place. Screwed down using the through holes for the modulator.

It’s surprisingly easy to de-ugly kitchen knives if you have a belt sander and the right oil. Not sure why I didn’t do this sooner, now I have to do the rest of them.

Hey it’s the slightly fancier version of my stove! I like it a lot but maybe not as much as 1950s family.

Did a quick composite out mod on my top-loader NES. Pretty straight forward, hardest part was squeezing the cables through the vents on the back.
