The Adventures of Bob the CC 3D and Friends

[infiniti]

^^ Nice to see Bob hasn't lost his charm.

According to Rusty, Bob is going to look for a girlfriend towards the middle of the year.

________

why doesn't he wear a suit?

He wore his birthday suit!  ) ) )

His other suit is a Santa suit

But on a more serious note, I'll see if I can find some more cut-out costumes.

a wedding would have been a good chance to get in touch with women (bridesmaids...)

Bob thought he might have better luck with a WTB...Want To Bride )

Bob goes HYPER!

Yeah I need a center-stemmed stepped Caps Lock...




Bob has his own spot on the keycap checking sheet!


Just so I don't forget:


Grumblegut has his own spot.  He likes the star spot on the Tsangan kit:


P.S. Grumblegut keeps calling it HYFER PUSE  ) ) )

[snoopy]

did bob already yellow a bit? you should buy him sunblocker.

My white balance sucks...I was in a hurry hyper and didn't have time to take pictures with a proper camera.

Anyway, I have noticed that Bob is kinda off-whitish but not really yellow but I don't leave him on the keyboard exposed to direct sunlight.

Compared to a kmiller dyesub:

***CROSS POST***

Bob and Rusty inspecting the diodes.  Grumblegut just being himself.  I have no idea why the vendor snipped the paper holding the diodes in a roll.


1k and 1.5k ohm smd resistors...they didn't have 0805 so I got 0603 )


Bob with an 0603 smd resistor on his forehead:


Bob wanted to stick in his nasal cavity but I said I wouldn't take him to the ER to have it removed if it got stuck.

[Zeal]

Oh wow, you make that SMD resistor look really tiny.

And why/who would cut up a roll of diodes and count them before shipping...

[infiniti]

Yes...they are small, miniscule, and tiny.  That one I took out to take a pic of...I lost. Good thing I ordered extras to account for breakages and losses! )

After hand bending some diodes, it hit me: it's easier this way.  Also, I haven't been to to the physical shop (I ordered by phone from a local shop) but they sell DIY kits and educational packs so I guess they keep singles for easy repacking.  I imagine you can order them in a roll too.

Bob got a pimple... )

grumblegut sneezed on him

[infiniti]

Hahaha!

I think the smd is black and my color balance is off.

I'm going to have to solder these under some bright light so I don't go blind

That picture is cracking

[infiniti]

Bob finally got the clear switches for my FaceW build (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=56822)!

OG Cherry Switch Boxes!


Inspection:


Grumblegut: *grunting*
Rusty the Steel V2 BB: "That's a lot of switches dude."
Bob the CC 3D: "Building a 60% bro!"
Grumblegut: *grunting*
Rusty: "Sure you got enough there?"
Bob: "Go big or go home!"
Grumblegut: *grunting*
Rusty: "Wait...where's BlingBro?"
BlingBro: *heavy breathing*

[Zeal]

May I ask how many switches are in each box? 500+500? 

And who's supply did you buy out?  )

It's 2 orders of the 110-pack from mechanicalkeyboards.com 

They shipped a box and this was inside. A 110-pack was ziplocked in each compartment.

Ah I see. Extra protection is always nice.

But I would assume that each box could fit more than 110, right?

Definitely but I guess 125 per compartment since the pack looks like it was cut in half (original looks like it was 2x2) and that would put at 500 per complete bin (2x2 compartments).

Let you know tomorrow. I should count how many switches there are anyway hehe

[Pinder]

[infiniti]

Each order was for 110 switches but each bag had 115 switches.

125 switches fit loosely in the pack.  I'll post a pic later.

Grumblegut used to collect toll in the form of a road tax but he got shut down by the government on the basis that there is no taxation without representation.

Grumblegut is upside down

Bob and Rusty grabbed some beers:


Bob wanted dessert so he ordered the sticky pudding with ice cream:


Don't worry, he brushed well after:

Looooool! I had only heard of Bob and his adventures, but never took the time (until now) to read the thread. I was not disappointed
