Fuses brought to you by The Jolly Roger
|
|
|
|
You would be surprised how many files are out there that use what
|
|
falls under the category of a "fuse." They assume that you just
|
|
have a few lying around, or know where to get them. Well, in some
|
|
parts of the country, fuses are extremely hard to come by... so
|
|
this file tells you how to make your own. Both fuses presented
|
|
here are fairly simple to make, and are fairly reliable.
