    Front panel fabrication - low cost shops

    Back when I was actually paid to sit on my butt in front of a computer for much of the day, I had a 40,000 sqft metal shop underneath my office. They were magicians, and I am permanently spoiled. I can do good enough panel work, but it is tedious. There have been several threads about low...

    Lamp step control

    I have an idea, and the question is Does someone already make a product to do this? Garage ceiling light is bright enough for most things, but sometimes I'd like a lot more. I don't want to run a new line to a second wall switch, or have a pull string. And, I've got a basement full of parts...

    Epicure Products

    This is directed at AudioGuru, but anyone can chime in. Since you're as old as I am, you probably remember Epicure Products. What do (did) you think of the EPI-50 and EPI-100? Thanks. ak
