if the display touch was not working properly at the edges then I personallly would not consider that seller or stock from seller good to be recommmended but then I am not great scott. 😉. For me atleast functionality should be 100% atleast for a produ t to be called working , build quality is next wheich as you said was delicate so is totally user dependant, cosmetics part is last, but then also comes value for money especially whe nyou buy kits unlike a ready prodcuts. If the kits are already costly then it will end up like raspberry pi which are no more diy option. Personal choice may be. Anyways as usual always nice to see this series i do like the tiny oscilloscope useful. THanks for this one and good luck 👍 for future ones.

UV resin is the best for glueing coperwire to glass or glass to glass. You could in theory use super glue, but that tends to break and affects the glass surface. The downside of UV resin is that UV light needs to penetrate to cure the glue or it will forever be a liquid. Trying to glue 2 metal pieces with UV-resin is definitely a no go 😂

There's two caveats to this. One is that UV glue is generally considered super toxic. Don't use it on anything food related. It's also a known allergic sensitizer, so you MUST use gloves when using it, and wash everything after it's cured. Also, almost ALL UV glue sold now today is acrylate based. The UV inhibitors are also temperature sensitive. So if you heat it to about 180-200 C it will spontaneously cure without UV.

As you've found, the UV adhesives don't work at all between two closely contacting surfaces, especially opaque ones, as the glue cannot be cured. I have found it quite useful, though, for building up or filling in surfaces where the glue remains accessible. I use it regularly for things like tacking down bodge wires on circuit boards, filling gaps or holes, building strain relief on custom connectors and adapters (layer, cure with light, layer some more) or for mounting new/added connectors into housings. As long as the glue has sufficient surface area on the parts and remains exposed so it can cure, it can fillet quite effectively between two surfaces and provide a fairly solid bond, and it's way quicker to work with than hot glue while providing a somewhat stiffer and more rigid end result (sometimes desirable).

There are oscilloscopes on Amazon using the same software, and they are sold as a kit. I got one for my nephew that was already put together and one for myself to build, and they work great!

Bro they have been selling those antenna “signal boosters” since the Nokia days. And they were like 30 bucks! I’m so happy to see that you have scientifically disproved it.

The box says "ELECTROMARNETIC" (note the 'R'). There you have it folks - a master class on how to legally protect yourself. You might think the Chinese company is using a bad Chinese -> English translator, but no! Apparently this is done so you can't sue them for faulty claims about how it works. You can't sue someone about improperly working electromaRRRRRRnetics! :-D

we use uv glue to bond nozzle for vacuum attachment to glass plate in pcb uv exposure machine.

Its worth noting is that that is NOT "UV **glue**". That is just UV Resin. Its mostly meant for water effects in miniatures and dioramas, or for making small resin things using moulds. As a glue, UV resin is fairly bad.

Putting a layer of UV glue on both surfaces then very quickly exposing and clamping them works but is a bit hap hazard. Good grade threadloc works well even if it takes a while to cure.

I use uv resin with my translucent resin prints and it works well for my projects. When experimenting with pigments and dyes, the pigments reduced the uv penetration so I left the part outside on a sunny day and that did the trick

Hey Scott, about UV glue, what is more interesting is solder mask, that harden with UV. It's very nice for DIYers that want to fix circuit board and isolate again after a mod...

I have one of the more expensive FNIRSI tablet type Oscilloscopes. It actually works surprisingly well. It isn't going to replace one of my Tektronix 'scopes, but if I just need something to do simple measurements, it does the job pretty well.

we use uv resin for fly tying, it's not a great glue, but it makes a decent shell for certain things... iit also very useful for fixturing things in an exact position, because of the instant cure. after that you can then use a stronger glue etc

The GPS tracker doesn't even has a GPS receiver in the first place iirc, it only uses your mobile signal for location, it's just a complete scam.

I print "GPS tracker" on my pcbs and stick the extra ones with a few random components on my stuff so it will at least scare if someone steals it
