Quick Update on Albion and The Ridden!

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to send out a quick update to everyone about how things are going.

First up, the narrator for 'The Ridden' has finished recording everything. I have listened to it, my mom has listened to it, and even my dog has listened to it, and let me tell you Sean Posvistak(the narrator) does a great job! This is my first time doing an audiobook through ACX and Audible, so I'm not sure how long it'll take to get it approved, but I will let you know when it is.

Next, progress on Albion is going great. The Patreon crowd is enjoying it and the people over on RoyalRoad are getting by on the scraps I throw their way. I'm not sure when this book will be released, however. I had originally planned on October, but now I am thinking of doing the release for the rewritten 'Forgotten Spies' then and making the first book in Albion slightly longer. We'll see.

Also, before I forget. I had someone ask me about signed copies of the books the other day. I have paperback and hardback versions available upon request. If that is something you are interested in, then please feel free to reach out to me.

I just wanted to send out a quick update to everyone about what I have been up to. That's about it for now, and I hope everyone is doing well.

Stay safe!

Can I finish Putting This Mini Tesla Coil Plasma Speaker Set Together?

 Can I finish Putting This Mini Tesla Coil Plasma Speaker Set Together? Years ago I bought this DIY Mini Tesla Coil set, and I put most of it together before stopping. I believe I abruptly moved at the time but can't be sure, either way I never finished putting it together. So, I'm going to finally finish the project and hopefully see it in action.

I Bought a BROKEN 808 Bluetooth Speaker - Can I Fix It?

 

I Bought a BROKEN 808 Bluetooth Speaker - Can I Fix It? It appears to be a 808 Audio SP901BKP HEX TL Rechargeable Portable Speaker. It is having power issues that I am hoping to fix and get working again. Sometimes power problems can be tricky, other times they are super easy to track down and fix. We'll see which one this is, but either way, it will be fun and interesting. 

  EDIT: I took a closer look at the board under a scope and it is fried completely through. I'm not sure how much power they were pumping through it to do that, but that is why you always use the proper power adapter and not just whatever fits.

Model Gundam Build Video 2

 Here is the second and last video on the Model Gundam build. It was fun putting it together, though I was somewhat disappointed by aspects of it as well.

I Started a YouTube Channel!

You can find the first video linked below. The current plan behind the channel is just a series of miscellaneous projects (hence the name) that I find interesting. The first up is putting together a Model Gundam, something that I have always wanted to do.
