  @Wings:
     Nice video, thanks for sharing.  It looks like a very practical use for a Jtc. Sounds great.

    Robbie,  I would still try to find out who cleaned that house out, and all the old guys stuff, by calling the realtor on the sign in front of the house. Maybe that motor still exixts and can be bought for cheap, as they probably don't know what to do with it. Tell them that it was your motor that you had loned it, and need it back.
   Keep experimenting with the diodes, it can't be that difficult if you had already done it before. Maybe the BBQ is the secret, Ha!
   I'm charging an old regular alkaline AA on solar now...  I'll even try to charge some button cells backwards to see what happens.

Thanks Robbie, I just stole your file also. (copied)  I too use paint and have the same problems Al was talking about.  I have a small file of resistors, caps, etc. and when I try to add one to the picture, they all end up in there.  Guess I need to play with it more as you all know my schematics, when I supply one, suck.

PS  I attached a copy of symbols I got from Jesus way back when.  he used these in his schematics.

Hey Bill . I figured it out after i thought about it .... Copy and paste ..then you can grab them and move them around .In paint Underneath Paste there is a drop down "paste from" and select the pic and drop it on a clean background.Just make sure when you drop it thats where you want it to be because you can't move it again easily.

@Nickz . Oh I'm in the game . Drawing up a loop circuit from memory . Dare i say that word .101% ? Don't know yet.........

Just to give you an Idea of all the parts to put together My Chicken Scratches hieroglyphs only Aliens can read or me ..

Thanks Al.  Yes, I remember using the "paste from" feature a while back.  I just need to play with it some more.  I was always so impressed with the drawings that folks were posting....and every time I asked what cad program they used to do it....they said..."paint".  I couldn't believe it.  Once again I learn something new from the smart folks here.
