Hehe, yeah, I really didn't want to risk
ruining any chips, so when I built
the eraser, the timer was top priority. I used the timer out of a junked
microwave oven, replacing the horrible membrane keypad with the numeric
keypad sawed off the end of a damaged Apple IIe platinum keyboard. So mine
even has a nice little VFD telling me just how much time is remaining, a
nice little *feep* *feep* *feeeeep* to tell me that it's done, and best of
all, the little VFD flashes "COOK" at the bottom while it's running :)
Oh, and it doubles as a clock...
Ok, I take back what I said about building that. That's just cool. :)
I'll not only second that, but beg for pictures of it too! :)
