So many phone repair projects! #tism

Family includes everyone! ❀️

Teal phone is assembled! I'm getting really quiet audio from it and I think something is up with the electronics. Anyone have experience with diagnosing the Automatic Electric 120C payphone boards? I ordered a spare to test with as well.

Two coats of wet sanded primer later, and the first coat of actual paint is on! Phone be teal yo! #payphone

I wanna get my hands on an ID. Buzz. That van was behind ropes and had bodyguards when it dropped at the NY Auto show. Now I wanna rub my dick all over it and feel the DISCOUNTS!

More payphone tomfoolery! Hopefully we will have these at Burning Man.

Payphone stripped and ready for rust removal/paint prep.

Shit be open yo 🀘😎🀘. Time to strip it and get it ready for pressure washing.

Moist and gaping πŸ₯΅

🎢Time to do some sketchy shit, do da, do da, gonna probably break a bit, then I might just cry🎢

"I think you caved. I don't think you showed the fight this party needs right now, because you're playing by a rulebook where the other party has thrown that rulebook away" -- here's the full clip of Sunny Hostin confronting Schumer today on The View

Third payphone! Bulk pack of drill bits on order to drill that lock. This one will be teal πŸ˜‹

Yassssss dial input works. Of course there was a library made to help decode pulse dials. Wrong Arduino model for HID I discovered so waiting on a Pro Micro to come in to do numpad emulation.

New side project night. Time to test out making this old rotary dial from a phone operators desk work as a computer numpad. If it works, I'll make a wooden base for it. I wanna use this to do weapon swaps in games. 😁

What she said.

That was a lot of batteries taken to the recycling center. I seem to collect tons of batteries from projects.

The Caller ID for the blue payphone works! 😁 Called my brother and he got a picture.

Autobot piss jugs! Spring pressure washer maintenance time. New carb today and an oil change.

If anyone wants, here are the 1:1 two sided scans of the original ID and instruction card from the phone. The phone was near an ocean so it ended up with some rust stains. I'm planning to edit these and make new novelty ID cards to replace them that match the same theme. #payphone #verizon #90s

Ring ring!

Late night tinkering, and the blue (now named) TARDIS phone is back together and works! Just need to modify in the SIP adapter and the PoE splitter inside the coin compartment to make this a VoIP phone.

Payphone has been primed. Paint very soon here. This phone is gonna be glossy blue.

Outside of USAID headquarters, Senator Brian Schatz: "If you want to change an agency, introduce a bill and pass a law. You cannot wave away an agency that you don't like or that you disagree with by executive order, or by literally storming into the building and taking over the servers." BOOM!

While the keys I ordered didn't work, the Dewalt universal key worked way better than expected. The vibrations loosened all the screws and the core fell out before I was even half way through cutting it off πŸ˜… The next payphone is now ready for disassembly and refurb.

Me when I complete one (1) small task.

Elon Musk staff has been caught installing hard drives inside the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), the Treasury Department, and the General Services Administration (GSA).

The final dinosaur made it home. πŸ€©πŸ¦•

Two new dinosaur friends in the yard now to join the original two! πŸ€©πŸ¦•

Great trip to Bioshphere 2 today. I really need to go back for the engineering tour.
