This weekends progress...

This week I have been working hard. My blog has slowed a little, as has my traffic which has allowed me to breath a little more freely. I spent a large ammount of time working on the talks for the camp in October and I'm very happy with the progress.

I also soldered these very nice cables together for my little home theatre system. Here's how I did it...

First we strip the cable separate the core from the shield.


Second solder the core and shield to the pin


A lot of cables... lots of time and *cough* money

What to do with them all...

If you would like any hints and tips on how to DIY I am now a master craftsman and happy to take questions.

Feeble home wiring job, I was smart and bought a already made component cable which is of high quality.

...and feeble. Your cables were about twice the cost... the cabling was the best you can buy and the soldering prtty flipping good (by the end anyway)

Now boys, take deep breaths and count to ten.

Now fight - and no garrotting with home theatre system cabling, that would be unethical.
