Y'all can have a good laugh, but it bloody hurts!
After seeing one too many of my school students get scammed on the cost of instrument repairs, I finally decided to bite the bullet and start diong a little maintenence and minor stuff myself.
Part of this involves finally getting around to making a leak light.
I followed Gordon's instructions,and it was easier than drinking beer!
And therein lies the problem....
It's my day off, so I'm listening to some Hank Mobley and having a few cold ones, when the inspiration to make theleak light hits me.
Concentrating on the job in front of me, I reach, without looking up, for my beer, and grab the bloody soldering iron. Danced like Fred Astaire and developed an instant case of Tourette's syndrome. Worst of all, the Friday night Footy game is on tonight and the worst of the burns is right on my "Remote Control Thumb."
The leak light works like a charm and cost me bugger all. Under $20 AUD.
OK you can all laugh at me now. :twisted:
