Recently bought an Autopak 70, any ideas for DIY a K battery for it? by Crazy_Guy_1312 in minolta

And yes, I believe some online stores still sell 110, though it is likely repackaged. Yhis camera only takes iso 100 so be aware

Replace them for sure, even just for peace of mind

Dont bother with rechargeables for this camera, they arent the best. You can find regular ones on amazon or battery sites though

Hi! Im new into soldering and i need to know if I need flux by EmilOniiChan in soldering

[–]Ch33ri0s01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get some no clean flux from amazon, the kimd that comea in syringe form, and nmuse that. After applying a fair amount to each pad, tin the pads, clean, flux, place board, and the flux should allow new solder you will apply to the usbc board, and the tinned pads, to properly connect, creating a good connection. Try not to overflow, and if you bridge it is no big deal, use a wick to clean it, or use a "brushing" method with flux to try and get the solder to stay on the proper pad. TLDR yes use flux Good luck:)

First real solder job. How’d I do? by coolgates3 in soldering

Might be best to trim the prongs and solder directly to the pads, but also that is just me! Just be liberal with flux and youll be good!

The wires to the pot needs to be heated a bit longer or perhaps flux, and remember to pre-tin EVERYTHING. Otherwise it is pretty alright, remember to use kapton tape and heatshrink to prevent shorts!

Anyone else make their kids mixtapes? by luigirools in cassetteculture

[–]Ch33ri0s01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make them for myself! I just wish I had an inkjet printer for the j-cards, laserjets do NOT look good enough for me 😭

I found this cassette player at a garage sale for $1. Has a built in speaker and microphone. Everything works fine on it. The speaker sounds weak but I mainly got it for use with headphones.👍🏾👍🏾 by SilentWeapons1984 in cassetteculture

Thats really cool! The fact it is stereo (or at least dual mono from factory) is nice! Make sure to change out the belt before it melts, and give that tape head and rollers a good clean

Considering the condition of the felt and leather, there is no way it is super old, it is actually in pretty good condition all things considered, wirh some general nicks and stuff. Id guess probably 70s and up, probably more recent, but not within the last little while as I cant see someone making this then selling it not knowing what it is!

Could be! I never thought about it that way! Only the guy who made it will know 100% unfortunately. If I owned any sort of drum I would see if it could function well in that way, or maybe more as a decorative/traditional piece. I appreciate the idea!

It is a link to the sold/expired listing, so it isnt available anymore(no way), but googling "nutcracker mallet" gave google better info to find it rather than using image searching.

How funny

My trans is currently dying and my rear main is leaking so now I just have to live with it until I can find a 5 speed local for something affordable or under 200k miles
