Thanks, so do I!

Yeah I picked it for style, then regretted it when building the project when I remembered that aluminium is conductive (duh…),
which meant that all the grounds were connected together…

Which is not what I needed and I had to get creative to insulate them from eachother (you can see it a little on the last pic, I coated every hole for the connectors on the right side with nail polish).

In the end it was worth it though, I love the finished look :)

Thank you, and cool! Do you mind me asking about your wiring?
I actually also started trying to hook up a small bluetooth speaker’s innards to a guitar amp but I’m getting crazy noise when trying to play music through it…
I wasn’t sure where to connect the audio outputs and the power supply so I’m interested in seeing how you went about with that :)

Yeah sorry that wasn’t very clear: the only thing wrong with them was the cable used to connect them to a computer.
Now that I think of it there might have been a little amp board in the volume selector switch that was on said cable.

I wanted this without knowing I wanted it, it makes so much sense.
It would make this community much more interesting to me than it already is, what a great idea!

And here I was running out of ideas of what to encapsulate!

BTW if someone has an idea of something cool to do with this, I’m all ears.
I bought phosphorescent pigment with the plan to make little canisters of ooze from TMNT 2 but not sure what to mix the pigment with…ideally something non flammable, I’ve tried water but it wasn’t super conclusive.

Oooh yeah well finances are helping me behave in that regard (งツ)ว

I sense i’m missing the joke, but in case it’q a genuine question: it doesn’t, it’s for weighing about 60grams of rice :) And thank you!

Nice! Sounds very handy, I actually didn’t know this type of extractor existed.

Oh Nice thats not bad at all

That’s where my biggest hesitation lies: old style or cartridge. I hear that they’re better but I’m concerned about life-expectancy. Do you know how well those all-in-one tips age?

Hmmmm I wasn’t thinking of getting hot air which I’ve never used, but could be worth getting for the future.

Can you completely remove the suction bit and cable?

Thanks for your input!

Pitted tips 🥲 I know your pain. I ended up taking it off but I was going to write I’d like to not go over 150€, so this is perfect. Thanks for your input!

That’s awesome ! As a tinkerer myself I love to see these kind of projects come to life. Do you know of other communities that are about DIY ?
