recycled components
« on: January 25, 2009, 01:29:22 PM »
i have pulled apart a computer power supply and a old vcr, i was wondering if anyone had some ideas on what i should make using the components.

just something simple, i would need pics or schematics,

sorry if this is in the wrong place

Fuzzboxes are good.  You can never have enough fuzzboxes.

If at first you don't succeed, stick it through a fuzzbox.

Put the components in a blender (remove any resistor above 4.7K, they have a bitter taste) and mix it up in an omelet in the morning.  Makes for a good pick-me-up.
