On the way home from Tramlines, I popped into @pimoroni.com towers for a visit and showed off the Giant Unicorn Hat. A big thank you to Pimoroni for supporting me with this madness. I thought it was fitting to take some photos in the factory. Plus it was nice to catch up with Jon, Paul and crew

I was just wondering what the purpose was given the landing is the same size. Your example is a good one 👍

This may be of interest to you @listerofsmeg.bsky.social, since we talked about such a thing at CamJam

Chris Parrott @zodiusinfuser.bsky.social · Jul 5

Indeed! 57 in total. Thanks go to @pimoroni.com for "sponsoring" this, aka there being a bag of 50 sample servos we were not going to sell.

It's the little or not so little details that make or break a project :-)
