I was given a couple of old NEC projectors, both worked, only one had a bulb (and I wasn't going to spend £100)

This was a one day build, because I have a 5 year backlog of paper for destroying, and my shredder is broken.

I was gifted a mixer and integrated PA Amp. This one is on-going as I have had to ordered parts.

Things I've Built

Decoding the car stereo

Changed the car battery, didn't have the radio code. I had a choice, ring Vauxhall, or work it out myself... Turns out a Raspberry Pi & PicKit are good for this kind of thing. A bit of crossing fingers, poking about and that code was mine.

Apple Display Connector conversion to DVI

The screen was a gift. I made a cable map of the original ADC connector, and the DVI. The signals are compatible, it's just a connector change. I did solder it all 3 times, because I misread my documentation twice. But it worked in the end.
