[SOLD] an XTant kit
« on: Tue, 16 February 2016, 17:43:41 »
Although the XTant is a great project and has been sitting on the shelf for a long time, I have concluded that I will probably never really build or use it like I should.

For sale is the PCB, plate, xwhatsit, 2 mats (1 black 1/6" (~1.5mm) art foam and 1 very thin packing plastic, a near-complete and ugly but acceptable XT (with nasty cable removed) for donor parts, a beautiful empty XT case, the 10 custom 1.25u printed keys from Unicomp, and incidental hardware.

Back when this project was being formulated, the curved plate was the difficult and expensive piece - as I remember we paid $90 for them. The caps from Unicomp was a >$30 order, the XT itself >$40, and there was additional shipping and incidentals for a total of probably $180 or so.

I will sell the lot for $150  $125  shipped domestic US (or $185 international if buyer assumes the risk) but I would prefer domestic just to keep it simpler and safer.

Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

Better to re-use than start new.
