With this workflow, you can select any number of 3D printer models and have them fabricated without even touching a 3D printer. The numbers of free STL […]
Reading Time: < 1 minuteKid’s kitchen beeps with the help of an Arduino Arduino Team — January 31st, 2018 While Roald Hendriks is quite pleased with the build quality of the IKEA DUKTIG play kitchen, it does lack one thing—the ability to say “beep.” This feature was requested by his daughter, who for her third birthday wanted “a kitchen […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesRotary encoders and Arduino combine for awesome universal remote Arduino Team — January 31st, 2018 In his latest hack, “Matlek” has come up with an entirely new take on the universal remote, using a pair of rotary encoders instead of an array of buttons to output up to 400 individual signals. One 20-step encoder in […]
Reading Time: 2 minutesClaire, from the YouTube channel Fake It and Make It, came up with a way to make playing the guitar slightly easier for the instrumentally challenged. She used an Arduino, 3D printing and chopsticks to create the Strumbot. Anyone who’s ever had guitar lessons knows the tedium in learning how to get both the chords […]
Reading Time: 3 minutesWhat makes the Sinterit Lisa so unique is the successful integration of SLS technology into a compact and easy to use machine. Generally speaking, there are a number of advantages that SLS technology offers over FDM and SLA, such as the ability to print without supports, nest multiple objects in a single printer, and produce […]
