For months I had this half-finished project cluttering up my desk. Then the other night I finished it up.
It’s an audio amp inside a coffeecan.
Now, even as I was making it, I was thinking, why am I putting several hours of work into this? I was making from scratch something that I could buy at Goodwill for a couple of bucks. And the Goodwill version would work far better.
At the very back you can see the pumpkinseed-sized audio amp IC chip that is the core of the project. Everything else is just a peripheral.
Then I found myself doing another totally ridiculous project. Making moss terrariums.
Even as I put them together, I thought to myself, there’s no way I’m keeping these.
This one has shells inside it.
Got them for a buck at the dollar store.
This one has a tiny forest of crystals.
Like an alien planet or something!
Yep. Sometimes I start something and I just can’t stop.
