We've been playing with the Pick and Place machine, and thought about new projects. This one, besides just being plain handy, offered us a simple project to start adding surface-mount parts to!
The Ardweeny is proving to be a popular way to make a breadboard-friendly Arduino-clone, but after the prototyping is done, you still have to figure out how to get your Ardweeny into the real world.
Here's the new Ardweeny BackPack, in both plain and SMD LED version. Plug your Ardweeny into this carrier, featuring:
One of our first tests was using an Ardweeny for a dual-scale thermometer, ranging -50 to +50ºC on an analog (servo) scale, and 18 to 32ºC on the bargraph, on a laser cut base. It's a work-in-progress, but the cutting files & Arduino source code are available on the resource page.

These new Baby "Helios" Turbots by Grant McKee are an experiment to see how much can be done Turbot-wise with a single motor.
Check. This. Out. Don from Ontario sent this video our way, of a marble catapult machine he made that uses the GM18 30:1 Mini Metal Gearmotor. He goes into great detail on the mechanics and engineering, and the action starts around the 3:37 mark. We can't believe how intricate the design is, and can't even […]
