Who could resist?

In my earlier post, I mentioned a large purchase from Fire Mountain Gems which arrived last week. One of the items in it was a bag of electronic resistors!
<should show some resistors here>

First, I had fun sorting them. I bought them with the idea that I'd use them in jewelry. Serendipity in action, one of our lead engineers is retiring this week and I'm making as many pairs of resistor earrings as I can by the party.

So much fun! Now I just hope the others at the party think so too!

These are pretty geeky. For the true geek, here is a picture of the meaning of the color code (stripes) on the resistors.... I guess true geeks would already know the code.

I shamelessly stole this from a web site... and I don't even know which one.

Anyway, resistance is futile! I must go and make more....
