"Project Monday"? What the heck is that?
We're giving our news postin' habits a bit of an overhaul. Here's the plan: instead of one massive newspost once a week, we're going to break things up a bit. Monday's we'll post a cool project or tutorial that might be fun to try. Wednesdays, we'll post some of the awesome links that we've bit passing around the office. And finally, as to preserve some sense of sanity, we'll keep posting our latest product releases every Friday. And if you want to contribute... Let us know! We're especially interested in showing off whatever neat projects we can, so feel free to write us with some images or links or description-type-stuff so that we can show off your projects to the world.
So let's take this 'Project Monday' thing for a spin, shall we?
Those crafty people at Make just posted this really cool BEAM project for basic solar rollers and solar symets:
We love to see BEAM projects getting some lovin' from time to time - that's where we have our proud roots. There's something really elegant about such simple designs that don't require any fancy brains and are quite content to putter around in the sunlight. We carry most of the parts needed for this project, from the solar cell to the cassette mechanism and flashing LED. Make Magazine actually ran similar projects waaaay back in Volume 6. The circuits are a little bit different than this project, but we also have kits available that will set you up with what you need to make your own solar roller and trimet.
Happy Monday, everyone! Er, if such a thing exists...

Well, it's once again that fantasmical time where we recap all the neat stuff we've been up to over the last week. There's nothing massively huge to announce today, but there are a few odds and ends... It's March, and St. Patrick's day is almost among us. For those of you who like to celebrate […]
