New skill unlocked! Gone are the days of wiring my prototypes like a noob 😂.
PCBs forever now, even though it takes 20 days and A LOT of connections, it's totally worth it! Wouldn't have tried if I hadn't seen it done over and over by @kevsmac.bsky.social Thanks for the inspiration Kevin!

Should all lithium-ion battery powered devices be rechargeable by law. My wife was about to buy a new Tile tracker for her wallet (that's used daily 🤣) and throw this one away. I jumped up and said, "where's my toolkit?" We will be back to 100% in 30min. #recycle #reuse #eWaste

Moved to @elegoo.bsky.social ABS Like Resin 3.0 from 2.0. Having problems now. Def settings as everything else is the same. Here's a testing print. Struggling with the fine detail & the tear is new. Sometimes sticking to FEP. Any ideas #3Dprinting peeps? Using Elegoo settings.

Salvaging a decade+ old Hexapod. Was old #Python code now updated to Python3. Gutted the original hardware, now @raspberrypi.com Zero & @adafruit-playground.com servo hats. A few gammy legs due to worn cogs & rechargeable Lipo batteries installed. That how you unwind at the weekend isn't it? 👀🤓

On #PiDay I'm reminded that I've tinkered with @raspberrypi.com's for over a decade. I've owned every model. My current #Pi5 is running #AI & more importantly there's always Pi running #RetroPie somewhere in the house! For the kids of course... 👀 youtu.be/WWsBmioSMcQ?...

Expect a flood 🌊 of #sora videos 📽️ in the UK 🇬🇧. Impressive but is it really useful? What's the ROI? Generic unpersonalised #Marketing content? I'm talking about this on Tuesday (Full) & the 25th March (Running out) at Digital Jersey Academy, book now lnkd.in/ejvS7F28

The @Digital.je school #BattleBot army is growing, ready for coding on Wednesday. Will do an #instructables build & share the lasercutting + 3Dprint models. Fair bit of multi discipline effort this one. @microbit.org #dfrobot @lightburnsoftware.bsky.social @elegoo.bsky.social @autocad.bsky.social

My wife was surprised by this little fella defending her bath. She asks if I'll ever grow up? I said I'm just making a schools robotics project fun for the kids... 👀 The boy is in hysterics 😂. The comedy hands get him. @microbit.org #tinkercad #dfrobot @lightburnsoftware.bsky.social

Happy with that, a VERY economical @lightburnsoftware.bsky.social #lasercut @microbit.org robot for a @digital.je Schools #Robotics/#Coding session after half term. Made easy with #dfrobot Motor Driver. Only 15more to build 🥵. Might add some @elegoo.bsky.social #3Dprinted hulk hands! #STEM

Savoury panchetta and egg pancakes with a touch of maple sauce was requested by her highness... it was delivered promptly to a massive smile 😁 🤤 I was yet again masterfully manipulated by a professional Daddy's girl.

This arrived in the post yesterday! For the love of God why isn't this done automatically via email and/or SMS!!! The date set on the letter was the 22nd! Which I also am suspicious of. Doesn't take a week locally. It's a mess however you look at it! 🤬

Sunday #Making job this week. #Recycling the scurge of the environment. Single use vapes, the li-ion batteries now being used for a @DigitalJersey schools @microbit_edu project. Converting to usbc power at the same time as making recharge stations. Ominously only 66.6p per unit.

So every other video on #RedNote is "Hello #TikTokRefugees" 😂. Took China zero time to just spin up a clone. Who'd have thunk it...

How do I buy this sound investment that definitely isn't a pump and dump way to fund him while in office and work around the law. I see big rises and drops in this coins future... 🧐 The T's & C's say it all, how is this even legal?
