Toys
| Item | Link | Price | Comments | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tiptop Audio stackcables | Patchwerks | \$5-7 | There is no such thing as too many Eurorack patch cables. 75 cm (blue) and shorter are what I need most right now. | |
| Raspberry Pi model 4B 8GB | These are a little hard to come by lately due to supply chain issues. | |||
