    Wanted to keep a record of all the things I am getting up to mod wise.
    Also thought it would be good to make the occasional video of the things I'm doing rather than just photos.
    This has led to the creation of a cobbled together monster - I give you FrankenCam !

  3. My First Mod.

    by , 04-29-2011 at 06:57 AM (Verey's Mad Building Logs.)
    All the major parts are finally here for my first box mod !
    Only missing some black milliput and a new multimeter as the old analogue has some loose wires that I only managed a temporary fix on.

    I plan to keep this blog as a sort of build diary for myself.

    Can you guess what it is yet ?

    It is a variable voltage regulator, and it comes with a pre-drilled and labeled PCB for mounting

  5. My Backstory

    by , 04-26-2011 at 08:29 PM
    I've never written about this before, and have only talked about it with a few people, mainly because of how emotional I get when I think about it.

    In October of 2009, my younger sister died from injuries she sustained during an epileptic seizure. It was sudden and traumatic and I ended up seeing a therapist and going to grief group counseling to get myself out of the sad place that I seemed to be stuck in most of the time.

    On what would have been her 28th birthday in ...
