Coming Soon - May

Well writing a public list of what I was going to achieve has been at best a partial success. Like I expected I got distracted by other things, what with work, fizzPOP and Climate-KIC PIP but some progress has been made with most things from the list.  First the successes:

• As per my previous post the workshop now has a roof, the walls are rendered and I have soffits and facia's.
• The Printrbot build is now completed and I have done some test prints, although I am yet to use it in anger.

Progress has been made with the following:

• The design has pretty much been finalised on the frequency standard project and I have most of the parts ordered.
• The battery tab welder is progressing nicely, just waiting for a few parts to arrive and i can start the build.

And no progress has been made with the following

• Other than a bit of light research no progress so far on designing my lab programmable DC load.
• The OneTesla Tesla Coil kit is still sat in the box.

This months list is as follows, I have tried to be a bit more realistic with my goals:

1. Pour the workshop floor and hopefully get some doors fitted.
2. Finish designing and start assembly of my battery tab welder.
3. Finish designing and start building my lab frequency standard project.
4. Start work designing my lab programmable DC load
5. Build my OneTesla Tesla Coil kit.
6. Start designing a USB phone charger run off Makita batteries.

Hopefully I will make my way through a few more of the items than last month!
