The capacitor after cleanup, please :D

Has he gone a bit leaky yet?

I've heard some tall stories about why a project is late, but "the dog ate my parts" :o

Loved reading the jokes in this thread but I do hope that the capacitor makes an exit soon so that the OP can relax. Sadly the story would have been very different and even deadly had the item swallowed been a button cell. I have read warnings from Vets regarding Watch batteries etc as they actually cause serious internal damage to soft tissues. I saw a picture of a lithium cell placed on a piece of meat….. the meat was burned at the point that bridged the cells contacts :(
Be careful what you leave laying around when you have inquisitive pets !
We have 4 cats and the youngest, Bailey, likes to see what I am doing. He occasionally lends a paw to help but has been known to literally rip the wiring loom out of a chassis (scrap thank goodness!) Pets eh! :-DD

A different take of "the dog eat my homework..."
