Mission statement for this blog

This blog came about because of interests and projects that are not directly connected with my glass studio, though some aspects of these projects may overlap into my work at the studio down the road. I wanted a central place for photos, videos, and a little commentary for my side stuff. I figure this will be an easier way to communicate with people and friends with similar interests. Or at the very least, just stuff I have been up to.

Touch Circuit

This is a simple touch circuit and relay. I have been playing around with various touch circuits and I like the fact that this one has only one touch plate for on and off. I did not want to use a micro controller for a touch circuit to keep it cheap and simple. Eventually when I figure out how to solder surface mount components, I can use touch specific IC for reliability and keep the component count as low as possible.


There is a shameless plug for my studio in the touch circuit video below, sorry
