My Projects
I have too many projects, too many hobbies, too many interests. Here is an overview of a few of the things that I have been working on that is useful for others.
My Fuel Injection Project
Since I do embedded systems programming (writing code for the little processors inside of equipment), and I have an old British car with a carburetor, I figured it would be cool to marry the two interests by building a fuel injection system. How difficult could that possibly be? As it turns out, there are a lot of non-trivial problems that need to be taken care of before electrons can control old iron. Read on...
Some Apple Newton Stuff
Way back in the bad old days, I got to write code for the Apple Newton. A very cool device (though slagged by the uninvolved) that is programmed in a fully buzzword compliant language called NewtonScript. Here are a couple of Newton programs that I threw together.
Source code and package file for “FastTimes.zip”, a program to set the Newton clock quickly.
A Newton Book of Tao.PKG formatted for a portrait mode 2X00.
Information about the Tektronix TWD120 Digitizer
The Tektronix TWD120 was a wonderful piece of gear. An oscilloscope without a display or front panel. It connects to a windows box with a SCSI port. Your monitor becomes the display and front panel, your mouse controls the knobs. 2 Channels of 100MHz goodness at a blow out price.
Information about Trillium 1300 trailers
Trillium is a Canadian company that made/makes little fibreglass travel trailers, much like the Boler or Casita (all derived from an old AirStream but done in fibreglass rather than aluminum). Here is a bunch of information that can help you keep your egg on the road.
