I saw on my facepage that i hadnt published any guides.
Does this mean that I can publish Guides?
If I can I would like to know how.

Hey randofo! I wanted to make my older bro a guitar pedal or something for Christmas and was wondering if you had any good circuits for them. He has the basics, distortion, overdrive, digital delay etc. So something really out of the ordinary would be great. Thanks!
That is a good question. It would be fun to play around with guitars pedals again though. Let me think it over.
I sort of have something already, but it is an acquired taste. Anyhow, I will be posting it in a few weeks or so probably, so you can see it then.

Do you have Make: Electronics? There's a section on making a fuzz box that's pretty straightforward. It may be beneath your level as far as theory goes, but could offer some interesting jumping-off places or ideas to riff on:

Hey randofo- check out my attempt at photo greatness?
BEHOLD- THE 50 CENT PHOTO STUDIO!
Photo 1: Setup on desk
Photo 2: My tripod hanging off a shelf above the paper
Photo 3: nother view of the tripod
Photo 4: Test image (needs a bit of touch up in photoshop)

I made a Christmas advent calendar guide and was wondering if you could perhaps feature it. I know this is kind of silly but I think this could really catch on. It might take a little while to finish the front image so if you do decide to feature it, wait until it's up.
Hey Randofo! I have a great idea! You make a lot of those weekly challenges so I figured that you would be the guy to talk to. I was thinking that we could do an advent calendar where 24 people sign up and each person has their own day. A new holiday themed instuctable is added every day until Christmas eve. I really think this is a good idea and would LOVE to see it on the front page(lol). If you have any questions or possibly don't quite understand, REPLY! Thanks!!!
Heya, would you mind posting a picture of your lightbox pleasE? :D
I don't have a light box. I have a skylight and a photo backdrop. Normally I just wait until the 'right time of day' to make things which is typically pretty annoying :-)
you do realize that because of you I am trying to make my pictures better, with pure white backgrounds, good placed subject, etc. I am getting pretty good results with a white sheet, desk lamp, and photoshop levels ;)
Don't forget to change the white balance in Photoshop too (if you are not doing so already). I should put up an Instructable on how I edit my images. It is kind of simple and crude, but effective.
Didnt know photoshop could do that (el estupido me)
one of my test images is down after this text :) why am I still typing...

Nice! That is a really good photo. If the corners get a little dark, you could always go in with the paintbrush tool and make them a little whiter, but you don't necessarily need to worry about it.
I am very glad that you like what I do. Thank you for your attention :)
Hello,
I just wanted to say that I really like your instructables!
The white backgrounds on all your pictures also make them look really professional :D
Keep up the good work!

Congratulations! I saw your wobbler robot in make volume 27! You have fulfilled one of every makers dreams! What a lucky guy!
Thanks. Pretty excited about it. Didn't know it was out yet. I need to pick up a copy of the magazine!
Yeah it's pretty awesome! The instructables robot made a cameo as well.
Hi, randofo! It was a lot of fun seeing all of those Simple Bots that you made yesterday! The Maker Faire was awesome. Thanks for participating!

Hi this is REALLY URGENT! I haven't removed it but my video for my Forbes teach me fast entry no longer shows up in the "Contest Entries" section of my user file. I edited the body text in it but I just wanted an admin to clarify that my entry has not been removed from the contest

Hey Randy I just read the article on your Joydick. You are a genius. Is there an Instructable coming?
No. Although, there are instructions on another site. It would seem Noah and I outdid ourselves on this one.

Aha! That PENGUIN! That is the very same kind that was discovered surveying my property with binoculars one day! It whipers dark nectars of secrets into people's ears, so be careful.
Hey, Randy, I was on your website and wanted to view the "Hug me to make it stop" project. Unfortunately, the link is broken! Is there another place I can view it?
That was made before I realized it was a good idea to document things. What remains of the project is a circuit board stored away in a box in the closet and a t-shirt in the drawer. It was based on a capacitance sensor. I was acting as the switch and when someone came into contact with me, the circuit was triggered making the really annoying noise stop.
>Cries< But...but...I wanted to make it! Oh wells, I'll just have to figure it out for myself! :D
The first version used a QT113 chip with the wire probe wrapped around my ankle making me the antenna. This was not ideal. The second version used a better capacitance circuit I found online somewhere. It triggered a very loud buzzer. It was a pretty simple circuit (relatively speaking).
Sounds awesome! If I can figure out the circuit, I'll try to make it.
This was basically the first one and instead of a motor, there was a buzzer.
Thanks - you did a horrible job of curing my lust for a laser cutter. Just kidding. If i come back I'll be sure to have a b&w logo and another cell phone. Thanks for taking time to hang out!
Cute penguin. Are you at a humanitarian society building?
