mass produced ones, if you want to batch produce them then cutting is the way to go.

Really...? I saw it...... and the BG isn't white.

I thought 3d printers' resolution is not enough for the groves.....

Is anyone watching GJ-bu this season?
I'm liking it quite a bit, check it out if you like seitokai no ichizon or that kinda show

It's fun to me!
That, and I "grew up" listening to vinyl. Not that I listened to music often, but when I did, it was through vinyl or an 8 track player! Haha, fond memories of those as well...
I found my first classic rock album on 8 track actually when I was ~5...
Ah, the simple times...
Well, it seems I have a condition similar to Jgray's where I ramble on when I'm tired....
Oyasumi.

It's probably easier to find those kinda stuff (rare/old records) in the states, don't think nearly as many people in my town share the same hobby due to availability.

*searches 8 track*

OH THIS. I've seen this before but never used one. Same for vinyl :<

My dad was really into audio as well, but mainly in the form of CDs and cassettes. For audio, I think the most 'exotic' thing we own is the gigantic laser disc. And then there's that one size down, size right between LD and CD.

Don't we all? ;)

The build and print quality are decent. Only bad thing about it is that the coin compartment is both rather small and not sealed off properly, making it too easy for coins to roll out when you don't want it, and too difficult to get the coins out when you do want it.

Tadaah!

omg nice >_<

Do your waterfall/decay graphs make sense? I never see any significant ringing in mines and find it weird. Thus never posting them.

Except for the low bass due to background noise and all in my room.

I don't interact with people much to get close to them, thus I have never yet in any relationship except for friends

Otaku life FTW! :D

 

Yeah, first solo in a week or two. :D

 

lol that was two years ago... I have a whole different house now. Much better and even bigger :D

Dark doesn't hurt my eyes. In fact, I like the dark with a screen better than light with a screen. lol

 

Well, it works that way. And different from TVs, Projectors doesn't hurt as much when watched in darkness

 

YES!!!

 

Ooooooh.... So jelly....

 

I see. Probably because my eyes have a higher ISO (means higher light sensitivity, in camera lingo). That's why I can see much better than a normal person in the dark. The downside is my eyes hurt from any flare or bright light

which model do you have?

 

That was really the best part of the entire anime IMO.....

 

Hmm... It doesn't justify just yet. I have to watch it if it's good or not, using a lower quality *GASP!*

I'm using the same thing, but I think it's kind of better without his tea tin phantom power, since supposedly most laptops nowadays have its own.

You mean like this, on the right?

On the left was part of my first series of measurements. On the right is more recent.

I don't know what changed here. Slight changes in mic/headphone placement will make variance (like in the FR itself as seen above) but the noise floor seems to have just climbed up like crazy. The low freq is normal, it's background noise.

Hm... if anything, I changed cables (to longer but supposedly better quality ones). Don't remember if the graph on the left was done with MIC IN or LINE IN, but the new one is LINE IN without a doubt. Probably need to recalibrate sound card.

I don't think my laptop has phantom power, so I need the tin box.
