I can program a chip for you and send it out. It is easier for me to do it on the board that is required for the project... so you would just need everything else. The LEDs and resistors. I have a few ICs and boards lying about. If you want to do this project, let me know and PM me an address and I will get it out to you. You too Wes... lemme know if you want one.

This sounds like a plan.  Let me get my thoughts organized (something around here has to be!) and find an appropriate jar.  I know I've got a few laying about, I just don't remember where I put them.  One was supposed to be for a snow globe, I think.  It certainly looked like one when last I saw it. 

LEDs and resistors I have or can get.  They're easy.  I can even handle SMD LEDs and resistors.  (I better be able to; one of the pending projects is a DDS VFO which is pretty much all SMD.  Actually several are - all copies of the same device.) 

Ah, Noelle, my sweet Angel ... what Daddy's gonna make for you soon enough!  :)

Thank you, Eric.

BEst regards,

Hey Kludge,

Nice to see you over here. Was gonna' reply to your message over at HMEM but never got a-round-tuit.  ::) Then Wes sent me one so now I've got to get round tuit. ;D

Sorry to hear about your daughters MS. My wife has it. Although she's doing pretty good. Glad to hear your making things for your daughter. You sound like one heck of a nice dad. ;)

Talking about electronics, that was sort of another hobby of mine. Back in the '80's I spent a few grand on a computer and software for desiging circuit boards. Never got very far. Still have the software but the computer is gone.

I'm retired too. Medical. The old ticker had a few pipes rerouted. I'm working on a house right now that was roughed in in 1997. Still along ways to go. Don't have much time for the more fun stuff while working on the house but do manage to get a few fun projects in.

Again, nice to see you over here. Hope this place takes off like HMEM.

My last round tuit developed a flat spot so it's in the shop.  This is the same shop Murphy and I are arguing about.

Noelle has good and bad days.  I know when she's having a good one; she gets feisty with the old man.  She is the most wonderful part of my life; she makes my life worth hanging onto.

We have a deal.  She keeps me well and truly wrapped around her little finger and I spoil her without mercy.  I help her with her expenses, by making things, by buying little things like the stuffed puppy do go with her live dog (who's not much bigger), by getting yelled at for not keeping my weight under control etc, by being mutual best friends & confidantes ... by being Daddy.  And, of course, she's my little girl (30 years old, 5'-9" worth of "little") and always will be ... and she knows it.  Daughters are very special people ... very precious people.  I suspect any father of a daughter will back that.

Well, computers are cheap these days and there is some decent software available for free for electronics design and board layout. 

I have a slightly different problem.  I'm an old paper and pencil draftsman and want to create drawings of some of the Noelle-machines using 2D or 3D CAD packages (also free?) which means a whole new learning curve.  Given my meds (and the reasons for them), that should be fun.  :)  Oh, well.  If it were easy, anyone could do it, right?

Hmmm ... a cardiac plumber?  Neat!  I knew an orthopedic surgeon on the mainland who always referred to himself as a glorified mechanic.  Wonder if they're related. ;D

Good luck with the house and do NOT forget to take some you time!

Best regards,

Kludge
