This was a hairy transport… I feared getting into an accident with this load. I most certainly would have been taken out. Also, the weight of them sure dropped the back of the car 3″! Thanks again D, I don’t know what I’ve gotten myself into!

Husky Technician box review
http://www.homedepot.ca/product/husky-technician-box/842778
It did not last 3 weeks…
do not invest in this product
Both latches broke after putting up with other nonsensical deficiencies.
The inside compartments do not work nicely and are very bulky, the lining in the box takes up a lot of the volume and offers little to no protection. The tool holders in the lid fit only the Husky tools illustrated in the picture. If you take the lid lining out, it adds no volume to the case as it’s a lattice work of low grade PVC.
I think it’s actually made from old Garbage bags
Do not buy this product or any product with similar latches
Zero stars is not an option on the home depot site…

I’m not a foley artist but I was always told Corn Starch makes the best sounding snow… Stay out of school kids; they can’t teach creativity, they can only encourage it.

Sound guy Xmas idea #3 – New patch cables
Just avoid Planet Waves:
Monster buzzword buzzword buzzword wire VS solder
We had a chunk on Monster Cable “Interlink Reference 2 High Resolution total bandwidth balance Audio Interconnect cable with Micro fiber” and a piece of solder in the shop… so we put them through the audio precision.
guess which one is the solder

Lesson in redrawing a faceplate

2. no two pots are created equally.

This sucks – Bias no longer operating
Doing a migration from one computer to another I’ve lost my ability to licence a software a really enjoyed. Bias Peak and Bias Sound Soap. Their licensing server has been shut down and I cannot authorize it. I understand there are downsides to dongle licensing, but in this case I think it would have saved my tool.
I say boo to bias being gone, but boo to a bad licensing system.
