I read that without looking at the picture and had a bunch of questions regarding suggestions for my use. Now I think you might not be able to help with my questions...
See, my bank hands its clients free card holders (branded with the bank's name of course). You know, those little flip-open plasticky two-cards holders, kinda like this one but a little classier :- RFID blocking credit card holder for those stupid PayPass cards. There seems to be no way to disable touch-to-pay functionality or at least to lower the no-password limit to zero. I've tested this with multiple POS terminals, works flawlessly [evil laugh]. Now where did I put my tinfoil hat?

I made some for all of the card slots in my wallet in the same way, many years ago. They have been living in there ever since.Yes, I first of all made a little pouch by wrapping aluminium foil around my card, then taping up free edges, and putting tape over the folds and across the top edges - and then I cut a little bit out of it so I could remove the card. That christmas I got some manufactured cardboard ones, but those open at the side so I still use my old tinfoil cover for my main cashcard.
I already have been, but then the first cintiq crapped out. I was mulling over the price of fixing it vs risk and reward.. The chances of failure and even the fact the thing may crap out anyways. However with that being said I got the parts to fix the first cintiq as well as this guy. I am viewing this as a bite the bullet and wrap myself around the tools.That costs a certain price. If you create some art on it, I hope you'll share a bit here.

It has a small pouch in it, like what a wallet has for bills and receipts. I filled it with a layer of aluminium foil, so it's wrapped around my card when it's closed, and it works like a charm while staying hidden. Plus it doesn't cost a nickel.![]()
As for the tinfoil hat, there is a risk indeed. But still much less than getting your smartphone robbed...
I'm not sure if when jeeks refers to a cake pan, he means what I would call a cake tin - that is a metal open container in the shape of a cake (such as round with straight sides). I roast my meat in a casserole dish, or a larger ceramic dish, because the oils might leak from the corners of a metal case (cake mix is more viscous and thick than oil). They both have rounded corners, which would make a funny looking cake. On the hob, where I have what I would call pans, I've never knowingly eaten any type of cake that could be cooked with one of those, and I only have two which can also be used in the oven (because they have metal handles), but those have rivets holding the handle to the pan, which would be caught in the shape of the cake if the mix filled it that high, and might interfere with the removal of the cake after cooking. Some cake tins even have clamping sides that can be released to make cakes that can't sensibly be inverted to knock out.@jeeks: can't you throughly clean a pan where you cook meat, and use that? (and find a lid that somewhat fits?)
