During 'lock-down' I made this short video for STEM education. Just a bit of fun and a chance to run some lamps. Although relating to this site just watch until 3:30.  :wink:

Just spotted this conversation. I guess a bit like Max I don't really know why I got into this as it started so early. My mother had a theory it was the result of 'imprinting' when born I was placed in an incubator for a time. She reckoned the first thing I saw was a heat lamp and associated as a parent. Could be something in this as I seem to have an empathy for all things electrical  :laugh:

I've been promising for months to make summat for Ria to keep the 10½ reels of tape for the Revox upright, and today I made a support for them out of two matching pieces of wood joined by a bit of plywood which I cut to length using the circular saw attachment for my Dremel.  8)
