I changed a little bit look of my room.
I've spent a lot of time in an electronic shop and much more money. Until now it's about $175 and it's going to be much more. But it brings me lot of satisfaction to solder and connect circuits. I'm going to code ATMega8 and BTM-222 to obtain 8 bluetooth remotes. It's a part of my engineering thesis and I need to hurry up.
Since I've started to work on it some funny events took place and this is what my friend said about them:
- You need to launch a blog.
I am really terrible when it gets to the electronics. I learnt it and quickly forgot. This is one of the many many reasons why I wanted to work with electronics for my engineering thesis. Recently I've bought soldering machine, called my friend and asked:
- How to get to the solder insinde the machine?
On Monday I went to my promoter to ask him for help. Unfortunately he is responsible for the ERASMUS programme at my faculty so he's full of work right now. Therefore he asked his friend to help me. I caught him at the corridor and shortly described what's my problem. When I asked him whether I can use the soldering machine suddenly he stopped and looked at my with big scared eyes.
- Soldering machine? ..... You may die using it
That was one of my very first conversations with him. Later he helped me a lot. If he hadn't helped me with building a cable I would have crushed it without even noticing. He taught me how to assemble it and gave just one quest: to cut it in order to not have long sloppy snake, but elegant accurate cable. I picked up the scissores and tried to cut the cable. Gum was cut very easily, but the copper wires weren't. I tried few more times, raged and teared them out. That guy gave me the same strange look for the second time.
- Give me the scissores, please. First, you need to put a thumb here. Next pointer finger here. The idea is to push thumb and pull pointer, so the blades approaches at the same time.
After a long work we were to go to the electronic shop in an underground bazaar, but he got a call and needed to go home earlier. He asked me to buy some small parts for their lab. I arrived to one of the very few shops with that kind of stuff and made a very very big order.
- I want a holder for a soldering machine..... that one... no... this one. Wait.... are they different? And some pliers, please.... Ok, one pair. And tweezers! One, or many pairs.... Hm.... One. That's all. WAIT! Forgot those parts for professor. Twelve, please. How much for one? $2? Wow, quite a lot. Wait a second I need to call.... Yes, professor? You said the whole shopping will be $6, but it's $20.
- Maybe it's became more expensive, forget about it for now.
- Ok then, see you tomorrow.
- Wait. Where are you is it shop No 21?
- Peter, what part of bazaar are you right now?
- I don't know. Nearer the university... Probably.
- Peter, run! Run as quick as you can. It's the most expensive electronic shop in Warsaw.
- Ok, thanks. Bye! ... Mrs, I give up.
That's shortly how looks my eletronic work with my engineering thesis.
Meantime I also fixed friend's computer.
