Moving!!!


Over the next few weeks I will be moving into my new place, I have lots to do as to be seen in the following pictures, this means I am unable to finish my write-up on the PC controlled relay light as of this time, sorry. 


The workshop

The workshop
 
As the house was pretty much a deceased estate there is a lot of mess to clean up.
1.300AMP arc welder
2.Metal lathe
3.Band saw
There is also a lot more I was unable to take pictures of as the room was in too much of a mess more images on their way tomorrow.

This was an interesting find, a Vietnam war night vision scope that seems to be in complete, all but one part.

First post of the year.

Happy new year everyone.
This year i will be posting lots more stuff here on my blog.

The first thing i will be is an update on my PC controlled relay light i did back in 2008.
This is the video i did all the way back then, as you can see its not very informative, i hope to fix that now with a detailed writeup/howto and a new video.
