Grant has taken some time to document how to turn a standard 81:1 GM10 pager gear motor and turn it into a 9:1 version. Why would you want to do that? You tell me - I'd love to know what project you build with a speed demon like that! Read More...
Ladies and gentlemen, it is with deep regret that I present you with our last news post of August. Next week will become September, which causes uncontrollable weeping for students, parents of students, and anyone who was ever a student. Lots of pain all around. Heck, some of the Calgary trees are already starting to go moldy/change colours. After summer, we get approximately twelve days of fall before we are plunged into a perpetual state of cold and snow for the next eight months. Sigh. Oh well, enough complaining. Onto the show.
This week's Cool Thing comes courtesy of Matt, who made a slick-lookin' Pummer Flower, based off of our BEP Pummer schematics and using an SCC3733 cell. We could explain it...

Well, we survived the battlefield of 2014 Calgary Entertainment Expo with no human, animal or machinery losses (although with an apparent vocabulary shift towards geekery). In any case, running a double booth was a lot of fun and a lot of work, which makes it satisfying and tiring at the same time. And educating: we've […]
