LED Lamp WIP 01

With school back in full swing and a wedding to attend there wasn't much time for projects but I did get some good ground work done in converting the old fluorescent desk lamp to an LED. I wired up three of the four as soon as I had them to test with a 1kΩ resistor to ensure I wouldn't burn them without a heat sink attached.

Battlebox reboot

Thank you for join me again. This week of break between quarters has been a good one for getting things done around the home, bicycling, reading, and old and new projects. Today I'll relate the restart of a make your own miniatures case battle box which I had collected some parts for years ago and only just recently purchased the rest of the materials.
