Well, the Bucky's Balls came today. I believe I could play with these all night. :)

Well, I managed to break a cam bolt, allowing the cam gear to make a mad dash at leaving the vehicle, but it failed. Caused quite a racket though!

Mr. Fix-it

So I fixed some computers last night, two laptops and a desktop. They were all having issues connecting to the internet. Turns out that the router they were using was not Vista compliant, and while Vista could see the router, the router could not communicate with Vista. So, a trip to the store and a new router, and everything is up and running, the laptops for the first time! Woohoo! Not entirely sure why this fixed the desktop, it is Windows XP, and was not connecting wirelessly, but was having it's own issues. Three computers fixed in an evening? I'll take it!

Get down with the Sickness

Thankfully I didn't! Everyone around me has been really really sick :( Thankfully, I've avoided it thusfar.

Good Evening!

Hey everyone, or maybe just you. Taking it easy tonight, listening to some music on Pandora, and taking apart my Xbox. For some reason the disc drive no longer wants to eject, or inject either for that matter. It's presently stuck 1/4 ejected, or 3/4 injected, if such terminology is applicable to the situation. So now I'm taking it apart! Found a nice video on how to do so. These things kinda suck. And then I determined that the next piece is held in with torx screws! Yay! So I tracked down a torx bit, and I have nothing to use it with. I can't find the really neat tool my sister gave me a while back, I'm sure it's somewhere. I'll end up using this 1/4 drive wrench, that should be fun. Ah well, back to this! :)

Well, finished, reassembled, and currently functional. I found the source of the trouble I believe, it's hard to see in the photo, but this gear, some of the teeth have been stripped from it, in the smaller middle gear part. Maybe what they say about not shoving your drive back in has some truth? Who knows. Anyway, can't think of a way to fix that right now, but it was fun none the less. The inside of the 360 was surprisingly clean, and very simple. Everything snaps together, some of which was a pain, but a lot of it was very intuitive. I like it.
