I don’t want to go as far as saying you’ve got a problem, but that’s a lot of KT66 valves for one person to own 😀

What are the amps and specs?

I think you meant mustard.

Yes

Been working at a heritage railway this week and spotted this albino mushroom / fungus about 1/3 way into one of the tunnels. It’s 100% as white as it looks with grey flecks and it’s growing on ballast covered in coal smoke deposits. It’s pitch black that far into the tunnel and one of the drier bits.

Anyone recognise it? It’s the only colony in the whole tunnel.

Good shout. I also want something I can get four fingers round. The Speed Dial levers are two finger levers and we have to hold onto them for about 30 minutes at a time.

[It’s only proving out some tech on a prototype so it’s only got to work a couple of times. We can put up with some dreadful ergonomics as it’s only being used a couple more times]

Probably ought to ask this in the mechanics section, but what are the longest cable mtb brake levers one can currently buy? Tektro look like they do some fairly long ones.

It’s on a heavy contraption with BB7 mtb calipers re-worked to operate as always on (a sort of dead man’s handle type brake) and Avid Speed Dials to pull them off, but it needs a bit more leverage.

I was more like thinking aloud why we don't have friends that we can have fun with building/fixing things together

I do that with one of my friends! What valve amp is that? 2x EL34 PP?

The fuck is a foam party?

Did you even 1990s? 😀

Never trust anyone who uses supper unironically

This. Good advice.

Should do 👍

I feel the responsible reminder to say here is if you keep a ladder down the side of your house, make sure it’s locked to something solid with a big chain. Otherwise you’re going to come home one day to find some fucker has used it to break into your house.

That said, back to the bar lads 👍

Bott

We have Bott units and stuff at work. It’s excellent.

Trying not to think about the Quads. What’s the intermittent fault?

the one I replaced it with appears to be a little on the small side

That’s quite common. It might not be the tamper which is too small, often the basket is bigger than it says it is. There might be an oversize tamper available for your model. For example, you can get 58.4mm tampers which are a better fit in Gaggia 58mm baskets.

The whole usernumbers thing, can’t be bothered with a username and doesn’t post anything in the main part of the forum should have been the red flag here. They’re just vermin on the forum.

In the Budget, did they say if the wine of the wrath of god was going up or staying the same?

Blocked users?

4 bikes on one rack is a bit of an ask. Maybe two on the roof and two on the back?

I knew Alan Partridge was on here.

Properly integrated sub should not be distinguishable from the stereo soundstage.

Big statement, careful with that one!

Different speaker to main system, different response, different amplification, different crossover position, different physical position, chance of facing different direction. Without matching all of that up and/or doing some pretty in-depth dsp it’ll never be well integrated.

You could pull good espresso before someone invented a plastic thing that makes the blah blah blah

Burn the witch!

Yeah, this all panned out just fine, nothing to see here etc. Let’s see what happens in a few weeks 😀

I prefer a bit hotter than 300°C!

We tend to have them set at 360°C at work but I sometimes prefer up to 390°C so you can get in and get out really quickly. Sounds counterintuitive, but a hotter iron sometimes puts less heat into the joint 👍

Seconding lead solder here. We struggled away with lead-free for a while at work but it was affecting the quality of our wiring. Eventually we just binned it off and went back to leaded.

That’s quite a big area! Whereabouts exactly are you going to be?

Fuck it.
