Nothing ever made me feel better about not understanding certain concepts than this site.

Thanks po and bd for sharing this site, I finally feel I understand voltage, el. current, el. devices. It is awesome!

A cool weekend project would be to come up with software that takes an image and projects it like this so it could be cnc'd on a lexan board.

I did this many many years ago with some old CD-cases that I had given a light coating of black spray paint on the inside. It takes a while but works like a charm.

That's way cool. I should try this.

The other material on this site is also worth a look.

This is amazing. Blows my mind how he can have the patients to do that. I mean i can spend hours coding, but i dont think i could scratch plexiglass for hours. very cool thou!

Agreed, but i still really want to give it a try

This is the type of thing patents were invented for!
