Add new entries to the top of the list!

11 June 2015 - mirage335
Returned label printer, which is not useful without a special adapter cable among other things. Borrowed a bag of legos and empty microscope head for optical prototyping and photolithography experiments. Most Legos will probably be returning after replacement by 3D printed parts. Will return upon request.

27 March 2015 - mirage335
Long-term borrowed amphibious RC car, power-line monitor, and label printer. Will return upon request.

17 March 2015 - wa1ivd
Borrow Tektronix 2212 ser. H701215 from basement for Ultimate3S project, will return if needed.

10 March 2015 - mirage335
Returned remaining screwdrivers and such. Borrowed an average oscilloscope, and low-end function generator long term, will return upon request or when tolerance for their existance at the space improves (eg. for a class event). Also borrowed one of the several wire-wrapping tools recent discovered.

3 March 2014 - mirage335
USRP, related radio gear (some of which was built by me), wire, low-quality soldering iron, 2.4GHz R/C transmitter/receiver pair. Attempting to set up ham radio antenna at new QTH. Additionally, going to try repairing a model R/C plane with the R/C transmitter/receiver pair. Will return unused radio gear and supplies to HacDC when done, and donate for anything used. EDIT: Have returned some of the supplies as of 3/28/2014. Still borrowing USRP and soldering iron. RC plane may be able to use R/C transmitter/receiver pair if given new servomotors. Also borrowed a pair of decent pilers and wire cutters. EDIT: Borrowed SMT tweezers as of 4/14/2014, since my own set may not be adequate for an urgent project. Also borrowed M3 screwdriver bit. EDIT: Also borrowed soldering iron tip, while waiting on RMA from two other tips. Will probably bring back with some of the other materials within a week or two, time-ultra-critical project still underway. EDIT: Have returned almost everything. Still occasionally borrowing a few screwdrivers and other non-critical items, as some of my own have failed.

30 December 2013 - mirage335
Prusa Mendel, and associated hardware. Minor repairs in progress, ETA return Thursday, January 2, 2014. EDIT: Returned Saturday, January 4, 2014. Performance and reliability vastly improved.

12 November 2013 - nootrope
hackerspaces.org banner for Smithsonian X 3D Conference 2013

October 20, 2013 - mirage335
Level and steel railing, for construction evaluation. Returned.

14 August 2013 - The Doctor

  • Macbook Pro (for Byzantium development) (returned Nov 2013)

April 21, 2013 - mirage335
Prusa Mendel, PLA feedstock, M3 screws, some tape, some tools. Emergency maintenance in progress, ETA return Thursday, April 24, 2013. EDIT: Returned a while ago, seems the information was lost on wiki.

April 4, 2013 - nocko
Diligent Spartan-3E Starter Board (Labeled HacDC #12). I want to see if the SUMP logic analyser HDL can be modified and installed on this board.

December 18, 2012 - mirage335
Project Salvage components. Most should become valuable electronic test equipment at HacDC and absolutely must not be trashed. EDIT: Returned a while ago to the test cart. Connectorization of some parts (eg. mixers) still progressing.

July 21, 2012 - mirage335
Borrowing Ham radio gear this weekend, as described in the previous struck through entry. EDIT: Returned. Awesome data obtained.

June 29, 2012 - mirage335
Borrowing Ham radio gear tomorrow. Specifically, IC-718 radio, antenna tuner, RF power meter, balun (if available), PSU, some feedline, some wire, and a measuring tape (if >12'). Will also borrow some of my own objects at the space, specifically a UPS (for its 12V battery) and a magnetic loop antenna. Leaving my name and number on the ham radio cart in case anyone needs the radio or has questions. This is exclusively for the purpose of diagnosing HacDC's ham radio issues as documented on the mailing list. Postponed due to severe weather and power disruption. Radio not borrowed yet.

May 30, 2012 - mirage335
- Ancient (20 years+) semi-working AM/FM/WB/CB radio. Found in basement. AM function never worked, in sorry shape, needs repair, so I'm going to try repairing it as far as possible. Will be back at the space in ~2 weeks. EDIT: Returned. After mostly mechanical repairs, AM, FM, CB functions work well.

April 2012 - User:Tslagle
- IBM Thinkpad T43 laptop from David Whiteis. Wiped, installed Windows 7 and MATLAB on it, used it for USA Science & Engineering Fest booth demo ("Mug Plot")

18:00, 29, January 2011 (PST) - Williamgibb - Stanford Research Systems DG535 Pulse Generator

20:30, 1314, November 2010 (PST) - Williamgibb - Digilent FX2 Expansion board for Spartan3E FPGA Starter Kit.

17:20, 13 July 2010 (UTC) - DLotts - One OLPC XO with charge cord. It calls itself HacDC OLPC #3.

December 15, 2009 - timball - one black soldering iron + stand

DLotts 08:41, 29 October 2009 (UTC) - A230 Micro Game Station with labeled problem: "Raster screen" AKA white screen of death with stripes.

'cause, you know, all the cool kids were doing it.
I discovered that the unit I borrowed is flaky - after a few seconds of wearing it while powered up the display flickers and goes dead. I think that the cable leading from the power pack to the visor has a bad connection. When I get time I'll tear this one down and see if I can repair it.
