Glowies are now available online! This is our new line of rechargeable jewelry made out of fun LED shapes. We can make any as a necklace, earrings, or lobster claws for clipping onto hoops (great for folks who put hoops thru their gauges). www.alpenglowindustries.com/collections/...

IT’S DONE! A cross stitch T-120 VHS to go with the Polaroid VHS I made awhile back. This one is full of Space Ghost: Coast 2 Coast taped off late-night Cartoon Network in the late 1990s.

Nothing like making some rainbows on a rainy day. The new jig is great, swappable lower plate to fit the shape, makes soldering these up so much nicer!

Hot off the presses for my electronicsy peeps - I got asked if I'd sell the Glowie base without the LED soldered on, because someone already had a bunch of shapes. Sure! It’s unlisted right now to avoid confusion, but feel free to share with other makers. www.alpenglowindustries.com/products/glo...
Glowie Base (no LED)
This is a solder-it-yourself version where YOU supply the LED! The photos with the star above are provided for reference only, you will not receive a star. This was a special request and is not yet ...

I caved and moved my nice Hakko again onto my living room floor where the Cool S is happening. Back in business. These angle connectors are great!

Oops, I gave my strips a pitch of 2.54mm and these LED strips are 3mm pitch. It's manageable, but I need a quick way to adjust that in the KiCad model.
Reminding myself to quadruple-check the polarity of these strips before turning on the iron.....
