Tour and Status Reports
Welcome to the laboratory page for Redeye Engineering. Redeye Engineering specializes in obfuscatory electronic projects, but is capable of any project known to man, woman, and a few small animals. Founded in 1985, Redeye Engineering is not and never will be ISO9001 certified, as we wouldnt sell to the Europeans if our lives depended on it. Funding for Redeye Engineering is provided by private donations. Information on donating funds can be gained by sending mail at the bottom of this page.
Shown here for the first time is a picture from our archives of the first
location of Redeye Engineering. OK ..... so we were never located there, but we
did dream about it quite often in school. This is actually the site of the world
reknowned Spoetzl Brewery in Shiner, TX.
What does this have to do with Redeye Engineering? They produce Shiner Bock,
which has induced or helped concoct most of the better ideas produced by Redeye
Engineering, and our collaborative partner, The
Walrackian Institute. Please note that the sheep were not part of the
brewery, but they always gather wherever the head of the Walrackian Institute
goes.
This is our first PC Board kettle, which is used to brew PC Boards once they
have been drawn and laid out. The pipe coming in delivers PC Board materials and
parts such as resistors, capacitors, and I.C.'s (chips), and the cooked and
fermented PC Boards are skimmed out of the mixture from the open hatch. Unused
solder and parts are drained through the bottom valve, which is not visible in
this picture.
Here
is another view of our PCB Kettle, with our #1 Kettle operator, Juan Bendejo.
Juan is a great worker but he does tend to drink from the kettle a little too
often.
And what lab tour would be complete without meeting the staff. The one in back
is me. I never wear ties. And yes, I do have hair normally, but I had a rather
bad haircut that day.
