Morning,
As indicated by the title, yes, I have finally cased up my PIMETA. School started yesterday, and what with only having 3 hours of class, I got home early and was strapped for things to do. In no particular order, my brother and I shared some time together watching "Two and a Half Men" with the beloved and charming Charlie Sheen, I took a quick nap, grabbed some things to nibble on, those things you do when you're really bored at home. Anyway, after my nap, I got up and felt like accomplishing stuff. I promised myself to finish a whole whackload of projects during the Christmas break, and while I did get the PIMETA to finally work, I didn't get around to actually putting it inside of anything. I think I'll call it the ProcastIMETA. From May till now, I had yet to finish that PIMETA, and it took two full re-orders to actually get it to work. There was that dumb input pad mixup I had earlier, which may have committed on the first two PIMETAs. These things you learn when you finally ask, am I right? Anyway, on to the glamour shots.

I don't have very much colour selection for hook up wire.
What a pain it was casing up this badboy. I had to cycle between drill bit sizes, Dremel tips, solder this, cut and snip that; very frustrating when you don't have the correct tools. I got the case from my brother, for whom my mom's friend in France bought a watch at the airport. He didn't use it, and it's been sitting in my room as a possible amp casing for the past year. I normally kept screws and nuts in there since it closed up nicely and I knew I wouldn't lose them. I have since filled the opening with an old Versace glasses case. Anyway, that plastic didn't Dremel very well, so ideally the lid will be closed most of the time. Also, recognize the knob? I guess it isn't finished in the sense that I haven't added a switch or an on/off LED yet. For some reason, I stray from LEDs. I really don't know why. Nevertheless, my dad is the owner of this fine PIMETA, and I am finally relieved of my promise to him. He probably won't ever listen to it, but at least he has something to show off to his friends when he goes on his numerous world travels. Unless he doesn't bring it along...
It's somewhat sad to be parting with the ProcastIMETA because I never got a chance to get to know it. In any case, we can finally put this matter to bed. That's what she said.
