At our local Staples store (this may only be local though) are plastic clipboards that are absolutely perfect to use in front of displays. Ive been using them for years. Its exactly the same thickness as bezels in clocks, available in ALL colors, especially red, grey smoke, and blue, and sized 9x11....

Because, as we all learned in school, written english language letters should lean a few degrees to the right. This helps the eye flow along the letters, and assists in reading, and comprehension. Cursive letters , if formed correctly, with proper penmanship, should never be penned absolutely straig...

Radio Shac k Parts........OH MY!
There is no question that in the 60's, 70's, 80's and early90's Radio Shack was a fun place to shop, with parts, and kits everywhere. I lived in a small Northern Ontario town...that didnt have one, and whenever we visited a town with one, I made a beeline to the closest one. I liteally would become ...

small unit???
Although small is a relative term....there are very few small and inexpensive machines available, as there is really no practical use for a "small" machine if you want to make money in a business. For a business, a machine will never make its money back, unless it takes on large, money mak...

Funny quote on Radio Shack parts for a posting here
Just about fell outta my chair laughing when I read this one, from a poster that seems to have woken up from a 10 year sleep, and has just now noticed the absence of radio shack parts SNIP "Everybody better start stocking up with Radio Shack parts before there isn't any" Gotta be the first...

Stocking up on Radio Shack parts?????!!! Man ,thats gotta be the first time Ive heard that one. Have you been asleep the past 10 years?. Radio Shack has been dropping their parts for at least that long, leaving only a very illogical mishmash of items on their shelves, and even those will be phased o...

Random Generator
Does anyone have a schematic for a "random on" generator that I need for a toy prototype?. It needs to turn on a relay at a random time, anywhere within a 1 to 3 minute time span, after a button is pressed. It doesn't need to be absolutely "perfect" in the sense of a true random ...

Almost a Beam ORGY!
Today at Zellers they had a Door Crasher sale of rechargable garden lights for $1.00 each. You know the kind, solar cells in the top, a ultrabright led that charges all day and lights up at night to illuminate your walkway or garden. The Beam robotics guys must be thrilled with all these cheap solar...

Re: Digital Pressure Sensors
Oops, I did mean a analogue signal out, that could be read by a simple 3916 bar dot display.
