  • ....Here you are all EQUALLY WORTHLESS...
Thank you, one and all
« on: October 11, 2002, 11:25:08 pm »
About two months ago I was looking at plunking down $500 bucks for a SlikStik.
Took some heat here for that idea, and backed off..........

Then.........the bug bit me.....a little more reading, some great help from some folks right here on the bulletin board.....some encouragement......

Now,  I've got 2 Athlon PC's on their way to being built, a 14" VGA monitor for MiniMame and a free full size cab on the way, I've got orders with Happs, Ultimarc, Radioshack, and about 2 dozen PC vendors for varoius components for those Athlons......I've got a trip to make to Home Depot tomorrow and some prototyping to do, and I figure I've got enough project work to keep me busy for the next couple of months of weekends :)

Anyhow, thanks to everyone!  If it wasn't for this great place and the people on it, I'd be at least a grand richer today =D

Lets see..I need a Jigsaw....some L-Brackets......probably some bandaids....
2nd mortgage......

Some things go without saying... ;)

Before BYOAC: Guiness, Dinkel Aker, and those tasty Sam Adams Lights.

AFTER BYOAC: Meister Brau, Meister Brau, Meister Brau.

Sure,its Master Brew....but I prefer to think of it as...Mister Beer. :)

the best part of building a project is the b33r and some Hennesey....The more you drink the better you cab will come out, and the less care about the money you spend on it.

Golden Anny's are as low as I go.  Natural Light doesn't even taste like bad beer, it takes like sewer water.

no...wait...thats Narragansett.....nevermind. ;)

MEISTER BRAU, TAKE ME AWAY!

Hmmm...I could probably prototype my control panel on an empty case-back of Meister Brau.  Hmmmmm.

Gotta run ;D
