Hey Drome bitches.

So I think I'm hitting a bit of a mid-life crisis (I'm 26 lol,) so I've decided to try working on a project to get a little more hands on. I feel like I've always enjoyed building things and making them come to life (probably why I originally went to school for Computer Science and I really enjoy programming.)

For my first project, I'm building an arcade stick for my PS3/PC. I still am waiting on a few pieces to get it built (button connection wires and the box to put the parts in,) but I have a few screenshots of my current progress.

Parts so far:

PS3/PC PCB and Sanwa buttons:

Sanwa joystick:

I connected the joystick to the PCB to make sure it worked, and it did.

Anyone else working on a project right now? Share your stories!

I've recently gotten back into crocheting because my job is that stimulating I can crochet while talking to people :P Anyhoo, I've been recently learning to read patterns, so my stuff is getting more interesting. I don't have any pics of works in progress, but I do have a couple of pics of things I'm kind of proud of! :)

This is my first attempt at making a teddy bear.

Nice work, both of you! The only project I have going on is the early beginning stages of a comic I am working on with Sherlock Jr. for pure fun.

Here's my latest project -- a radio show pilot called "Retro Playback Radio," part sketch comedy, part talk show, and all rock radio. Here's the official synopsis:

In 2010, a full fifteen years after the dissolution of Coleman-McKittrick High's radio broadcast program, dozens of the vintage studio recordings — including the entire run of "Battleship & Arnie," the school's most popular program — surfaced at a yard sale in West Virginia.

Now "Battleship and Arnie" returns to the airwaves as "Retro Playback Radio," rewound, remastered and re-energized — bringing with it its audacious rock-and-roll renegades and its unmistakable brand of heavy metal madness.


I play Ethan "Battleship" Boyd in the pilot, and several of my acquaintances from the Humber School of Creative and Performing Arts' Comedy Writing and Performance Program provide other voices -- including that of Arnie "Armadillo" Maldonado, the co-host, and several other characters.

Click the pic above to head to our new Indiegogo (http://www.indiegogo.com/retroplaybackradio/) page, where you can hear the FULL radio demo and see how you can support the project. Those who do will receive all sorts of special RPR perks and exclusive merchandise.

And tell me what you think. And, of course, if you like it, then by all means share it with your friends who may be into rock/metal or retro stuff in general.

Peace!
