    Welcome to the IHoP

    Haven't used either, but these look promising: http://www.allspectr...ases-c-105.html http://www.allelectr...ct-Boxes/1.html Might also try searching on instructables, MAKE, (diy sites) to see where others are ordering. Amusingly I wanted ABS but when you add it to the search it fucks it up. Thanks.

    Anyone have rec'd on project boxes? Something around 6"x4" probably. Don't search as I am not sure on the size yet...

    Still curious what you searched for to find it though as now I want to explore...

    $20 for the throw away pre-wired volume controls. Fucking love it. Curious to see how good they are. Contemplating having them shipped to CA where I will be next week so I can test the full FR at a variety of levels in the lab to see how they do. Nice to, because the expensive pots I want I am sure I can get cheaper in Akihabara and conveniently for me I'll be there in two weeks. 3 week lead time from Germany though so I was going to order tonight. THANK YOU!!

    Sean uses the stoker. I'm not sure why, but I remember also liking that option more when I looked into both. It's been a while. I have so many other things I need to spend money on, and even more that I want to right now. I think want will > the need. If I don't get a vacation from the world I'm going to loose it. I have a life support for 4 grown adults in my hands. I'm on unemployment, and uneducated. Roomie has a masters in some super awesome info security from the U of MN and a BA in game development. I would be close to the 6 figure range right now with that. If I fully networked....... it, man oh man. Internet control on the stoker. I can be on the lake and turn up the temp Also allows longer cable runs. My controller is in the basement in my 19" rack with everything else, 1/4" stereo jack drilled through the wall. And the free stoker log software rocks. Let's you see stability over time and fix your fine tuning of venting while using slow & low methods.

    Burned off the lump you see in the picture, about 700 for almost an hour. Don't you love that smell?

    No way to do this easily....unless you spend a SHIT ton of cash. One option CAN make this easier, it's mono Wasn't the point of the minidsp to make it cheap? Cheap with future flexibility. And yes, it's pissing me off. A $10 pot would be fine, but $50. FUCK. so theses wont work? http://www.minidsp.c...ol-pot?sef=hcfp i probably missed something, haha My plan was to use one of those as a master. It'd be the volume control, but I still need "faders" for the channels. One miniDSP will do the processing for some pro audio mids and horns. The second miniDSP will do the processing for the in boat speakers and sub. If I used the miniDSP pots then I couldn't have the sub on loud with only the towers which will be my normal listening environment. Loud for either the rider behind the boat or the people swimming in the water. Not as loud for those sitting in the boat as they will be in close proximity. Then while cruising, towers off and the boat speakers & sub on. Vastly different sub levels. So I could use just the two miniDSP pots and get a normal volume pot for the in boats. The only problem with that solution is if I want an overall volume I'll need another pot on the input to the miniDSP and running ADC with low level input will increase the noise and then when I use DSP on the noisy signal everything is degraded. Can't believe there are no VCA kits available anymore. Fuck me. How about this between the channel signals for fading, http://www.amazon.co...35911245&sr=8-2 WTF did you search for??? I've been looking for fucking days and had just finally settled on the idea of blowing fucking $70 on pots.

    I'd get it nice and hot before cooking with it closed in case the sealant you used has any volatile nasties in it. Amusingly when I did that, I melted part of the new gasket. Yep, 1750 temp material can still melt in a komodo. Tells you how hot you can get it.

    Welcome to the IHoP

    Seals way better than the felt, well not way for the first time, but once you use the felt and it gets hard it sucks. This doesn't seem to and burps won't melt it. My first oops burp completely wiped out the stock gasket. Burnt the fuck up

    If you don't season, you don't cook. /discussion Seriously. FIRST thing they'll teach you in chef's school is how to wield the salt. Too bad it's also the first thing that most chef's fail at.

    Make your own exhaust manifold gasket stuff. Highest temp possible.

    Curious if you have any quad pot or VCA recommendations too btw. Everything that seemingly used to be available isn't anymore. Arrgh.

    Switch the timing for when you salt and pepper. Salt pulls moisture. You want it long enough to make the meat sweat, but not to dry it out. Pepper flavors, so longer is better. Before salting make sure to dry them extremely well.

    I'm just frustrated that when I don't need an audiophile part that is all that is available. ROFL.
