WHAT'S NEW IN MIKE'S HOBBY PAGE

5/08/05 - I've added a completely new section describing a optical timer/counter that has evolved from my attempts to create a camera shutter tester.  Check it out.

9/29/2004 - I'm expanding the Apple ][ pages.  As time goes on, I will add descriptions of the rebuilding of my old Apple ][.  I'm attempting to put it back into something approximating the as new operating condition, which included only 4k of memory.  If you have an old apple ][ or apple ][ plus, check out my restoration page, you may have a part that I need.

 8/26/2004 - The square format picture gallery has been created to hold my pictures taken on my old Rolleicord.   Most of the pictures were moved from the other existing galleries, but check out the newly posted infrared picture that has been just added and is in  the square format gallery.

6/14/2004 - The Super D'Lux Shutter Tester -  instructions to build your own Apple ][ based shutter tester in my photo section.

3/17/04 - St. Patrick's Day - I've done a major change to site navigation.  I've changed the behavior of the sidebar so that it gives you an index of the major topics of the major section you happen to be in.  Hopefully it will be much easier and faster to find the page you were looking for. I've also done away with most of those silly hit counters. I'll leave the hit history at the end of this page in case you are interested in what has gone on, at least up till this date, but will stop updating it. I've also done away with the title bar for each major section. It was pretty much there just for the hit counters, anyway.   Hope you like the new improvements

Further changes will soon occur in the tropical fish pages, where my interests are currently on rise after a couple of years of  intermittent activity.  I have decided to stop adding entries to the fishy log and provide summary descriptions of the species I have been breeding instead, when I get a chance.  This will provide an interested party a single place to go to for species information  instead of wading through several pages of  text in my log.

My model railroad is now disassembled, I've not been active in wargaming or pente, so I don't anticipate adding much more information in those pages anytime in the near future.
