Two wheel holiday this summer?

 

[Zen Mod]

sort of yes and no

main holiday with my girls - 4 wheels

plenty of small holidays , just moi , 2 wheels

isn't that normal ?

 

[stajo]

Yep. Like me. I have 2 free holes during summer. Only me, myself and moi.

 

[Zen Mod]

breakfast done
now to make cup of coffee
then to watch last episode of GoT (wouldn't , but read all the books just to find out that 2 last ones aren't even written yet)
then up to work

was back from workshop 3 last nights 'round midnight ...

btw. been told that I'm double Gemini in horoscopes ; that means that there are at least 8 of me , all the time

 

[stajo]

Yea. Last one out on HBO? I was thinking of going to buy me a band saw today. Then again I remembered that I live in an apartment.

 

[Zen Mod]

yup , hbo , where else

but , as I don't have hbo in basic cable package ( wasted anyway ) it's from PtP

same as yesterdays Moto GP , after work pleasure in HD

Hmm. Its national day here. Noone cares one **** (except not getting out of bed). Seems like one has to have broken free of something (like Norway from Sweden) to be worthy to celebrate it. My country has always been independent and never occupied. Ok. Another pot then and some HBO, then some signal processing.

 

[Zen Mod]

Buffer->6 dB Step up.......... Yep, logical. .....

few dreky phone pics during the (early phase of) assembly

as I said - will blog it , with proper pics

Turn up the Zen Amount!

Does it go up to 14??

Is that skinny signal wiring single strand or a twist?

BTW - nice job as usual.

 

[Zen Mod]

skinny signal wire is teflon isolated silver coated copper , 0,15mm dia , solid core - what else ......

PITA to strip ends , but routine is everything

Even by those pesky Danes? Great though they are...

Some of my best friends are Great Danes.

Yea they held Skåne (most southern area) a few times. Danes are great for sure.

 

[Zen Mod]

Where do you get that?

flea market,not cheap

 

[stajo]

Hard to find indeed. I have some NOS stuff but thin copper/teflon is hard to find. In my new riaa/dac/volume/select I'm thinking thin coax for riaa in and cat V twisters for the longer runs

 

[Zen Mod]

junkyards , communication equipment
