First of all, why are they in the chip aisle looking for resistors? Everybody knows they’re in the bread aisle…
If you’re breadboarding this, you’ve already lost
He’s going to make potato chip resistors to get the right number of course.
Just count the ripples!
Careful, capacitors reduce ripples
I used to make shunt resistors out of a pencil and a piece of paper. Rub pencil all over paper, cut strips to size of required resistance.
EDIT: I mean megaohm resistors not shunt resistors. 20MOhm for DIY theramin.
I admire it but also…wtf lol
I made a potentiometer with paper and graphite clay once
Confuses me that anybody would downvote you for this. I’ve made makeshift capacitors out of rolled aluminum foil. It’s dumb, but it worked for what I wanted (triggering a trackpad via stepper motors for testing microcontroller code.) Plus I just wanted to see if it even worked. Life = science experiments.
There is if you have a potentiometer and a steady enough hand!
U probably need a climate controlled box as well.
Simple, all you need is a 6 ohm resistor and a 0.18457216 ohm resistor in series.
Fixed resistors

The TCR of foil resistors is extremely low, and has been further improved over the years. One range of ultra-precision foil resistors offers a TCR of 0.14 ppm/°C, tolerance ±0.005%, long-term stability (1 year) 25 ppm, (3 years) 50 ppm (further improved 5-fold by hermetic sealing), stability under load (2000 hours) 0.03%, thermal EMF 0.1 μV/°C, noise −42 dB, voltage coefficient 0.1 ppm/V, inductance 0.08 μH, capacitance 0.5 pF.Quantum based resistors :

Electrical resistance standards :(…) Later, the 2019 revision of the SI fixed exact values of h and e, resulting in an exact
RK = h/e2 = 25812.80745… Ω.(this is precise to at least 10 significant digits)

https://www.nist.gov/noac/technology/current-and-voltage(…) Quantum-based measurements for voltage and current are moving toward greater miniaturization (…)
(there also been research for defining a quantum based volt standard)
Ohm no !
Lol this one was great, thanks for sharing. My partner teaches physics and I do EE on the side, I like rubbing these in her face sometimes.
That’s revolting.
And no spherical cows either??
