Yesterday I picked up a 480 GB M.2 drive for a new m/b. It'll be interesting how fast Windows can run.
Today I stumbled upon a bottle of Conker Spirit Cold Brew Coffee Liqueur, a Foxdenton Estate Sloe Gin and a Saffron Gin. Ordered from Brex ... Britannia.

I bought (traded) this nice Nakamichi CR-5 cassette deck. The transport needed some parts and they came in recently. Now it is 100%. Rec-play cal seems to be bang-on.
I bought a tension tape for cassettes for the above unit. I will buy a set of calibration tapes next. Looks like I'm back into the cassette machine business again. No parts available now though. 🙁

Yesterday I un-bought some stuff. After moving to a much smaller and cheaper flat I ended up with too much excess stuff and some was sold (un-bought) at a fleamarket yesterday.
Anyway, I am about to order some stuff from Barton Musical Circuits - one arpeggiator and two quantizers.
Oh, and I rand out of tea today. Maybe a 40 km bike ride to Trollhättan would solve that.

I love the Bosch saber saw my wife got me for father's day two years ago.
I bought a pair of the Klipsch RP-600M speakers. They are going into the basement listening room.
Interesting choice Jack.
I know that you can not hear where the horn and woofer transition. I bought a pair of RP-280F last summer. They did not disappoint me, and actually amazed me that you could not measure or hear where the two drivers hand off. I expected something.
So I guess they are punchy little fellas.

Bought a pack of tea some mushrooms and ordered just components för the arpeggiator and quantaziers together with some missing for my EL34-PP board and the 32-step sequencer.
I have a series of 18V Bosh tools at work and they can really take a beating.
After getting used to professional tools, the 14.4v Hitachi drill I have at home suddenly felt very cheap.
I decided to give the blue 12V tools a shot at home. If I'm up to bigger tasks I can borrow the 18V tools. 🙂
What model, Jack? My trusty 30 yr old Makita has gone missing😕, so I'm looking for a dependable replacement.
I remember borrowing a co-worker's Bosch right before I got the Makita. It was wonderful, and I always wished I had gotten a Bosch instead.
cheapie little D-Link Ethernet switch for new Shaw BlueCurve Gateway. Even though the pods give a lot of WiFi range expansion over the previous Hitron - and at reduced speeds, I still like to make as many connection by hardwire as possible, and the Gateway has only 2 ports. Currently getting over 300Mb/S on wired connections and iPhone -but for some reason only about 133Mb on iPad when in the same room - and around 100Ms when running on Pod.
The wallwart supply is almost as bulky as the switch itself.

Bosch JS572E -- I dont think the big-box retailers sell the blades -- but they get here next day from Amazon.
It replaced the "Stanley Works" one which my grandmother had given me in 1967! I couldn't fix that one any more!
I returned from the Dayton hamfest late Saturday night. I purchased one power transformer suitable for a DHT amp running 45's and 64 vacuum tubes. 50 of them were expensive (for me) sweep tubes capable of producing well over 200 watts per pair in push pull. Something BIG will happen......not sure exactly what yet, but there will be details, pictures, and maybe video.
Drove 100 miles yesterday to buy two rolls (600 gram) of Sn/Pb-solder. Snagged five 100pF ceramic caps while still at it (and forgot a fr***ing 1nF cap
).
Electronic suppliers (and others) are NOT allowed to sell leaded solder to "civilians". But I know one shop that does that

Some used water level switches to fix a washer and a new thermostat to fix the a/c at the rental house. The thermostat seems to have failed in a way that heating works but cooling doesn't. Odd but seems to be the case.
The audio score of the day was someone giving away a Fender guitar amp PCB and transformer. A little googling identified it as the guts of a Fender Deluxe 112 Plus, and the service manual is on the web. Score!

Hi leadbelly,
I'd say score all right! That'll make a great DIY amplifier since you probably have to rebuild the PCB, then add the box and case. Would you also mount a speaker, or use it as a head?

Apogee Divas in need of a little TLC
Mids and tweeter ribbons are unscathed though
Just another project to add to the list.
Someday I will catch up and the cycle begins again.. .and.,. again....

Actually, I was planning to slap it together with parts on hand and minimize work. I have a wooden case I made that's Marshall 100W head size and a reverb pan.
The PCB looks perfect, nothing burned. I don't think I want to try souping it up since it's discrete, TIP 42 and 47, and I don't want to get in over my head.
