A new project was just added, a digital copper clock I made for my shop. Using a Cana Kit digital clock kit and a hand made copper case, I created it in the style of an old "EXIT" sign.

Next up is either a really cool new project (which will take a while to write up), a new RX-7 howto or a few changes to make navigation through the circuits easier. I have not decided yet.

I have an EXIT sign on my wall, but it's just the faceplate.

If you don't have the time to do it right, when will you have the time to do it over?

When I was about 10 I found a box full of exit signs in the garbage. I only grabbed one (wish I had them all now) but modified it to detect darkness with an photoresistor and simple two transistor circuit, then hung it above my bedroom door.

My workshop has a window and a door, so it's pretty easy to know which one is the exit. There isn't a need for an exit sign.

LOL!

What's up with the exit signs guys? Do you find it hard to locate the way out of your bedroom? Hehe!

In some cases, I would consider both to be exits.

Oh god. Yes... The window can be used if the door won't open.

This is so lame.

Exit signs are cool, they are a perfect decoration for a door. A building was torn down next to my RX-7 shop and I spent about an hour digging through the rubble looking for exit signs, but no joy.
