David Cook of the Robot Room asked us if we'd carry the partner PCB's for his book 'Robot Building for Beginners'. As we're an enthusiastic fan of this excellent book, we agreed to carry it for him. (even though we don't sell the book...yet!) Please note: You require a copy of this book to successfully […]
PICAXE Project Boards
Dave Hrynkiw
February 27, 2009
For the past few months we've had bundles for many of the PICAXE project boards. They come with cables and a battery holder, and are generally what you need if you're getting started in this kind of stuff for the first time. But what if you already have all those fun appetizers on the side, and you just need the meat and potatoes? We're now offering the project boards on their own in the following flavours:
Mind you, I'm not sure you'd want flavoured meat and/or potatoes. I mean sure - a lil' dill here and some oregano there is one thing. But raspberry meat with caramel potatoes? No thanks. On the other hand though, if we were to coat carrots in chocolate maybe we could get Dave, our president and fearless leader, to eat his vegetables.
Wait, I'm not done yet! You thought that was it? There's one more thing - an after-dinner treat if you will. Perhaps something like a slice of pork-flavoured cheese cake.
...
Are you ready?
18-PIN DIP CARRIERS! WOOOHOO!
*ahem* It's kinda hard to get really excited by those, but they're still pretty useful nonetheless.
Anyways forks, have a great weekend and enjoy what's left of February!

SOPA / PIPA - Slingshots from Abroad
We're a Canadian Company, but the impact of the over-zealously worded American Legislation H.R.3261 "Stop Online Piracy Act" and S.968 "PROTECT IP" will affect foreign Internet sites. Being a central backbone to the Internet, the USA has an uncomfortably large influence on the rest of the English-speaking web, and so it's of our Canadian interest […]
Motion Activated Tree Lights
In compliance with the upcoming holidays we decided to contribute to the obligatory dose of Christmas ornamentation in the shape of the well-known coniferous tree. A tabletop freestanding tree with LED strings and a flashing star on top seemed like an easy enough thing to do. We also wanted to add a tech twist to […]
