Nice on the logic MOSFETs!
The actual "move" is now complete, but I am now going to undertake a terrible task before I get down to actual tinkering..
Sorting out the bins.
Bottom feeding, I sometimes get a couple of packs of components a day.. and since I get most of them with no immediate need, I simply would put them in a bin. I've done this for years. Remember, I often get a pack with two microswitches, that I paid 10 cents including shipping for. Or ten diodes. Or a couple of power transistors. You know, whatever I could pick up for pocket change, knowing I'd eventually find a use (or someone with a use) for it. There's lasers, LED's and switches. Packs of screws. Arduino Mini clones. Heat shrink tubing. Solderless breadboards, jumpers, shift registers and ULN2003's, capacitor assortments (disc and electrolytic), resistors, and frankly... tons of just plain random stuff. The key being getting whatever it was, very cheap.
So when I need a part, I often have to dive into these bins, and actually finding anything is nearly impossible. It's time. I need to take over the floor in the basement for a day and dump ALL of it out, sort and properly bin it. Daunting task... ![]()
SO.. I've got a couple of bins.. Four, actually.. of completely unsorted parts. Kinda like Christmas, kinda like looking at a huge driveway of snow you KNOW you need to shovel...
