Cooking the Perfect Steak
Extinguishing Charcoal
I barbeque exclusively with charcoal. I used to have a Weber kettle grill, but we wanted something bigger and got a Blue Rhino Uniflame grill. It’s nice, but when you’re done grilling and close all the vents, it doesn’t smother the coals. There are just too many holes and gaps in the shell.
My Brother’s New Business
My brother Steve got tired of working in the computer business, so he opened an indoor playground with a difference – this one’s for babies and toddlers.
The Black Knight Development Platform
I wanted to switch to a microcontroller that I could program in C++, prototype with on a breadboard, had every peripheral I would ever need (including USB), would cost less than $10, and would keep working even after I hacked it to pieces. The result is the Black Knight board.
Pizza-Inspired Printer Stand
I needed more room at my desk. A pizza restaurant gave me the inspiration I needed.
An Oscilloscope from the Trash
My neighbor put a working Heathkit oscilloscope out in his trash. Naturally, I rescued it. Time to make another clock!
Sexy Computer Calendar 2012
It’s that time of year again: time to make a calender that appeals to geeks as nothing in the stores can!
A Deadly Toxic Souvenier
My mother is selling my childhood home. I knew the one souvenir I wanted to keep. The only problem was, it could kill me.
Web Data on an LED Display
The LED display showing the current wind chill.
I built an alphanumeric LED display that connects via USB to my PC and can display RSS feeds, the weather (like wind chill, above), the time, or just about anything.
Congenital Tremor vs. SMD
See that little rectangle the size of Lincoln’s nose? That’s an electronic component – a smaller version of the big red thing in the picture. I have a congenital tremor in my hands, so I assumed that I would never be able to work with components that small. Turns out I was wrong.
