TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: Xbees Communication Established
http://triggerdog.blogspot.com/2009/02/xbees-communication-established.html
TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. I did a cut and paste of the code for the setups from the makingthingstalk.com blog, I don't have a lot of time to type the code in like I originally planned on doing. The radios are really cool. I can't wait to hook them up to something "useful". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: January 2009

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Saturday, January 31, 2009. Oscilloscope and Salvaged Electronic Stuff. I dug up a oscilloscope I had from a TS last year (or 2) and decided I would at least go through the setup. It is a "vintage" triggered sweep analog scope. I used the internal test signal to get the sweep in the picture. At first I was going to use my sony camcorder, but when I turned it on to camera the image was severely distorted. A real bummer because it was a nice camcorder. Put a potentiometer in...

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: February 2009
http://triggerdog.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Thursday, February 19, 2009. I set up a website over a year ago at triggerdog.com. And finally got around to putting something up there. It is pretty simple but it is my way of self teaching myself. Part of the lesson being html but not all. I set up a wordpress blog there. In addition to the blog I am going to try to categorize my diy projects so I have a easy reference. Thursday, February 12, 2009. I want to get an arduino shield touchscreen.

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Saturday, November 29, 2008. Ginger Bread Lighthouse and RC Planes. S was to show the lighthouse at Thanksgiving diner and it made the trip without breaking. Sunday, November 23, 2008. Saturday, November 22, 2008. S suggested we make a ginger bread house today. I wanted to make one that was fancier than the run of the mill house. Found some links to some really cool projects. We made the "colonial" style house on bobvilla.com. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: April 2008
http://triggerdog.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Sunday, April 27, 2008. Agricultural Plans and Equipment. This year I am trying to get a lot of things done. A big one is getting a small farm going. In that spirit we have been planning and taking some actions. The farmed area will be fairly small. Less than 5 acres is what I think we will end up with this year. One acre tilled will be a success. It will have to be very low maintenance. Making gardens and land improvement are the orders for the year. 12" post hole digger.

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: June 2008

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Sunday, June 22, 2008. Monday, June 09, 2008. Horrible Green Fangs - Jumping Spiders and Woodworking. I was going through my stored wood to make a goat milking stand and came across a really big(for this area) jumping spider. I measured it at 7/8" long. It seemed to have made it's home on this piece of wood and was reluctant to leave it. So I decided to take some pictures and video of it. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: Open Source Hardware
http://triggerdog.blogspot.com/2009/02/open-source-hardware.html
TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Thursday, February 12, 2009. Found some sites with some neat stuff. The photo is a "Ballistics Proto Hack Pack". Basically a waterproof case with some small breadboards on them. The site also talkes about open source hardware. The site has some pretty neat stuff, I personally have not seen before. I came across it on combinations of xbee and touchscreen and saw it had arduino stuff and all. I want to get an arduino shield touchscreen. They have a bunch of cool projects.

TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew: May 2008
http://triggerdog.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
TriggerDog's Monkey Brain Stew. Sunday, May 18, 2008. Had to work Saturday, got into work at 5 am, it was drizzly and dark, and left about 11:30 am to blue skies and sun. The worst part was that instead of the predicted rain it was beautiful and sunny. I was also making furrows to plant in by riding my mountain bike down the rows. Sunday morning I kept thinking it was Saturday. Working Saturday really puts me in bad sorts on a weekend. Though I missed Tag Sales Saturday, N made it to some with his mom...
