Disgraceful!

Gentlemen,

I never ceases to amaze me that for all I've learned about the theory
side of electronics over the years, my construction skills have not
improved one iota since I was about 10 years old. Case in point:

I cobbled this board up to automatically turn on the water supply when
the soil moisture fell below a certain amount. I've got 240V/10A wires
juxtaposed next to low voltage signal interconnects and components
with the insulation smeared through by careless use of a soldering
iron all secured with blobs of hot melt glue and many of the component
lead ends close to shorting out. It's obvious I've paid scant regard
to layout considerations as you can tell. I'm posting this so John
Larkin can see for himself that having the ability to visualize 3-D
apples with insects etc is of no help whatsoever in laying out boards.
Now you might say, "Well, it's only a prototype, CD; it's not as if
you were going to actually use this thing as it stands" to which I'd
have to confess that was indeed my intention! Appalling, isn't it?
