2 kilos of decent coffee . Should last me the month ... I hope.
Industrial vision sensor with ethernet for pc control (or the little screen, or both over ethernet). And a optical micrometer. Very sensitive. Stick a hair between and see the analog output reliably change.
I love industrial toys. Espacially when it's cheap
$57!!! Wow thats a great deal, was there anything wrong with it? Did it come with probes?
Ok, my bad, the image was called $_57 (3).JPG (183.17 kB, 1600x813 - viewed 18 times.), so I figured maybe that meant $57 for the 2225

No bad at all, $57 is the impression I had too.
I just got this.
OK, we'll play your game........how much?
Today I scored a Fluke 87 V on Craigslist.
It is brand new, was sealed and never used! Seller was asking $250, I offered $185 and picked it up!
The serial number is older, 11180329 so i guess it may have some of those issues I read about. Anyone have thoughts on that?
I think this was a good price. Here is a picture (It came with sealed box, matching serial #, etc, but I opened it):
Well that has kind of made my day, my scope was only sent yesterday by courier, it says it is out for delivery to me , never had hermes do anything that fast overnight !.
Being Hermes, they might chuck it over your fence yet or end up taking it back to the depot and using it as a football. I was thinking about shipping a data logger with accelerometer with them to see what the max G was...
just bad experience here. The Hermes tosser (literally) threw my nice new Clarke metal folder over my back wall. I'm taking like a javelin. I was parking the car at the time, bailed out and made him take it away as damaged by courier.
I think performing taxidermy on the delivery driver and standing him outside as an eternal warning to others against being a total git is appropriate.
Sounds like someone in HK/China. There are loads of them on eBay pretending to be in the UK. English sounding name from google, they heard about Manchester united etc. Business done!
Still waiting for my pad boards from one after three weeks. It's got so bad I used stripboard the other day. Never again. Ordered some extras from Bitsbox.co.uk and got them next day.
Aliexpress has a better hit rate now.
Most recent purchases:
- 14 new mugs with print, for my "Daily Mug" habit at my part-time job. (I try to have a comedic/sarcastic/angry pre-printed mug with a different print every day I work there for as long a stretch as my budget can reach. Forcing me to shop creatively for bargains and trade mugs with other people, but I'm up to 43 different mugs now.)
- Clevo i7/GTX970 laptop with poop-loads of SSD, because reasons.
- High flexibility silicone/litz wire, which is going to be loaded onto a boat soon in the east, for my Company/Freelance stock.
Otherwise, mainly fruits, vegetables, milk and small amounts of bread and meats.
I just bought a very cheap 500W pure sine wave inverter and first thing I did was get the screwdriver out.

I never knew they came with screwdrivers inside. Must check mine out ....

Perhaps having the guy drawn, quartered, and head set on a pike along with the damaged item with a "
This is what you get when..." plaque on display might be a more effective deterrent.
Found it on a local bookstore:
I just purchased an Arduino Mega 2650 and a starter kit for a microcontroller class that a member of my ham radio club is going to be putting on. Just kind of dipping my toes in the water to see if I want to learn more.
Not electronics related but I bought 24 mason jars, gotta make my pasta sauces for the year.

I double bag mine in Zip-Lock freezer bags and freeze it as I only make marinara. No one else in the house like a good Bolognese or Alfredo. I just don't understand it
Freezing doesn't seem to affect the taste any and besides, once SWMBO's co-workers find out I made sauce, they all want to buy some, so it doesn't last long.

End up pulling out the canner for jams, beans, soups and potatoes so I do the pasta sauce at the same time. I love the fact that everything in the can is cooked so when I am feeling lazy I dont have to cook, just dump out the can and heat it up. I do alot of pressure cooked meals in a can with beans, meat, veggies and some nice gravy or sauce.
No, they love the marinara, not the Bolognese or Alfredo. Yes, it is cruel and unusual punishment. I am absolutely forbidden to make my dearly departed mother's angel hair pasta with olive oil and anchovy sauce served with fresh grated Romano cheese. It brings tears to my eyes. Funny thing, my first wife banned the dish also. I just don't understand.
