I have one of my esteemed customers in here working on this final year project (not 3rd year project coz this is his 4th).

Attempting to put a resistor and an LDR (light dependent resistor) on a piece of veroboard.

First attempt

took a lot of current

Mainly because all the components were soldered to one track, so there was a short from the positive supply to the negative supply.

2.5 hours later we still haven't got to the stage of it working.



3 wires.

2 components.

1 bit of veroboard.

How difficult can it possibly be?



Is it my fault?

Should I have shot him on his first day 3 years ago?

Its been a struggle today

Its been a struggle today

You are telling me.

It finally works.

There's more solder on it than you'd need to repair a kettle.

And another esteemed customer has brought me a list of components for his final year project.

All taken from the Digikey site.

So I've had to key every fecking one in to discover wtf it is & if we've got the equivalent in stores.
