Dear all, first of all an advice: this is not really picaxe related.
If you are still reading... here it is.
All started with this thread:
http://www.picaxeforum.co.uk/showthread.php?29361-Failure-to-finish-and-cleanup-projects
It is about the fact that i' m not able, and in that thread seems that i' m not the only one, to finish a project in a good aesthetic way.
I mean: i have an idea, i work hard on breadboard and in software, try more, change all, restart …
then finally... it works!
And instead of put it in a beautiful box, finish it with labels and paint…
i have a new idea and leave it as in photo n.1!
This is a stereo mic for live recording in the “dummy head” way.
It is just 2 panasonic WM-61A omni electret mic positioned as the human ears, amplified with an
op-amp to a correct level for a digital recorder.
When you listen the result on a headphone the sensation of been there is quite
unbelievable.
Well, as you can imagine, i' m a bit embarassed to show it, as it is, to friends...
I am a photoengraver, a family heritage.
I earn the money to live etching magnesium plates for the print industry.
So, few days ago, an illumination strikes my brain...
why not use my craftman skills in a different way ?
In photo n.2 you see a image of the corel draw sketch for the dummy head box
it is all based aroud a 1x1 cm. form, 6 rows 4 columns make a 6x4 cm side plate, 9 rows 6 columns a
top plate … and so on.
You can put round and rectangular holes where you need them and also letter and signs with a narrow outline.
in photo n.3 you see the result of exagerate etching of a 1mm. thick plate.
In photo n.4 … the box quickly put together with scotch tape.
IMHO not so bad.
I have just etch the front side of a box with:
6x female rca
4x3mm. Leds
6x pot
1 switch
A drill nightmare before this idea, now have a look at ph5
So, maybe i’ m totally wrong ( when you have only a hammer everything looks like a nail ),
but if you have a photoengraver near you...
Waiting for the forum considerations.
Thank you for your time.
