Room Mate

Greetings all! Looking forward to attending this year. I am booked at the Ho Jo next door and looking to see if someone wants to share a room to save money…. We can use this room or if someone staying at the Crowne Plaza is looking for someone, let me know.

Thanks

1st Arduino Project

I am working on the Mobieus Galactica and want to find some way to do the landing lights in the bay, so I turned to Arduino for the circuitry http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoFC6kuO0jY&context=C3c9f60eADOEgsToPDskLIWNFhhtfuDMQP7SDsf2Gs Now I just need to figure out how to minaturize this with Su...

It seems to me Testors has a spray of the same stuff, and I got some other stuff from MicroMark, but I agree with Terry it's a must for most aftermarket and homemade decals.

Their is no doubt in my mind it is definately operator error, like Joe I've been a life long syphon tube bottle user so I am sure this is just somethig else to get use to. I guess what I am look for though is some generalizations like: Gravity vs Syphon - For Gravity paint should be thinner and less...

Gravity Feed Airbrushes

I ahve used airbrushes for decades, but only recently have I started trying to use a Gravity Feed for certain applications. I have run across one problem I don't seem to be able to solve, that is when I start spraying I get a splat and then it is pretty fine until I stop and start again. I have trie...

It could be power but it would be better to see a schematic of what you wired. I am concerned that the LED's are in series when I think they should be in parallel, maybe it's just the wrong term you used but it sure would help to identify the problem.

1) She doesn't really support or understand my obsession.
2) Too far to drive for her not to have anything to do... about 12 hours

Otherwise I always make sure she knows she is welcome to attend.... 8)

I would love to attend again, last year they did a fabulous job! And I can only imagine this year being better. I may still try to attend if I can get the logistics to work out, but I would need to leave a day earlier and that is my wedding anniversary (21st) so I have to be careful....
