What's so interesting?


What's 20 years old and smells like a hospital? Caused quite a lot of excitement when taken out of the cupboard for the first time in many years.

It's an oscilloscope being used here to display the output from a half wave rectifier. luckily I was on hand to set it up. Gone are the days when you had to spend a lesson learning how to use the apparatus.

By the way, Balder isn't really that small, he is in the distance.
