Nice idea for a simple tester. Having it work in both directions with a polarity indicator is a neat touch.

It's quite ironic to hear teachers getting upright about kids overusing social media. Sat in a carriage full of them on the way to an educational trade fair today I experienced 40 mins silence as they all chatted away on their medium of choice! #didacta #didactamesse #didacta2025

Code editors for the Raspberry Pi. Do people ever change?

Even if the claim is a bit of a reach, this is a neat project!

This would be a really cool teaching aid. I remember seeing a DIY guide for a wind tunnel a while back. Might be time to revisit the idea!

I could see this being the next big thing in #3dprinting
I could also see it being the next big thing in 3d printing patent disputes!
Sadly, despite what it states in the article, it doesn't look like the boards are in any way open for self production.

Turning household waste into versatile stackable storage.
I seem to have a lot of these tins at home, so I put together a liner which increases the storage options.

It's it a bug or a feature? Sooner or later every 3d printer owner starts producing solutions that leverage the advantages of #3dprinting - a bit of planking would have done the job just as well, but where's the fun in that?
Happy printing!

Have been scavenging motors from a box full of old cordless drills. These are the first few and some seem to have decent gearboxes. Now the question is, what should I do with them? Ideas?

A last minute bit of #soldering practice before the festive season? This project will scratch that itch.
Thanks to AZ Delivery for including it in the surprise box.

For all the good intentions about printing amazing, technical solutions with my 3d printer, this simple bag clip is one of the things I print the most.
It just does what it's meant to!

This looks like a really neat design for introducing kids to #robotics (and for some adult "kids" too!)
