    automatic swinging door

    I assume you are thinking of a patent. Be careful as there are crooked patent agencies out there. Start with the us government patent office. Do a web rearch for patent office and you will get a lot of (488529) references. wzkb <They are just Jealous that the Voices don't talk to Them>

    Seek advise on an NC machine to tak

    Seek advise on an NC machine to take 3-D .STL files and produce an object whose visible surface matches that of the object. Desired output max size: H=45 cm, L=30 cm, W=30 cm (smaller could be OK to begin). Should be capable of thin (i.e. around 1-2 mm). Example: coffee cup from wood or a cat's...

    i need tips on circuits in basic telephone system

    The best allin one place source is &quot;Transmission Systems for Communications&quot; by Bell Telephone Labs. I have the fifth edition (1982) and have used it extensively. Try to fine it in the library as it's out of print. wzkb <They are just Jealous that the Voices don't talk to Them>

    Solid State device to replace a spark gap

    The 20KV requirement is the killer.&nbsp;&nbsp;If this is the minimum, you are out of luck.&nbsp;&nbsp;If it is just what happens to be currently designed in thing, look at how it must function.&nbsp;&nbsp;There are devices that can operate into the 1-3 KV range. (cost is another factor hi KV =...

    Circuit Board Pad Layout

    1] there is no solder under the lead,&nbsp;&nbsp;The only thing to connect is the pressure of the lead on the pad.&nbsp;&nbsp;The electrical connection is through the solder fillet. The only thing holding the IC to the board is the solder fillet.<br>2] There is no way to inspect the solder joint...
