Scrap Wood Cell Phone Amplifier: My cell phone has very poor sound, especially once I put this case on it. So I decided to make a sound amplifier for it out of only materials I had around my shop. This is a very simple build that anyone can do. All power…

TRIPLE CNC MACHINE: After a few weeks' break, we are back with a new project. In this video, we will try to make a simple cnc machine with you. “ A SIMPLE HOMEMADE TRIPLE MACHINE “. With this cnc machine you will be able to do 3 different jobs. -Engraving…

Make Circuit Boards With Lasers: A homemade circuit board is only as good as the mask you put onto it. No matter what method you use to do the actual etching, you still need to stick an image of your circuit onto the board, and make sure it leaves crisp,…

"Fiber Optic" LED Matrix: In this project, I created a "fiber optic" LED matrix using WS2801 LED strip and glue sticks. The light displays have a different look than similar LED cubes and a few advantages. First, you can't see the actual LEDs in the display…

Inspired by an old episode of Pimoroni's Bilge Tank, Alex created a light-up multi-layered hologram using a Raspberry Pi and the Pimoroni Unicorn pHAT.

If you need another idea for how to creatively diffuse LED lighting, then look no further than the “Light Me Up!” project by Hyewon Shin, Eunjeong Ko, and Junsung Yi. 



Their setup uses 312 3D-printed and laser-cut light triangles, each of which contains…

Lasers are awesome. Glow-in-the-dark surfaces are, too. As seen here, Justin and Brett were able to combine the two into an excellent drawing machine made from scrap materials and discarded wood.



Their device uses a pair of gearmotors under Arduino control…

Laser Drawing Machine: ✨Draw phosphorescent light trails with a machine designed and built completely from scratch!The story: In between studying breaks during midterm week, my friend Brett and I designed and built this machine that utilizes a laser and mirror…

Aquí un sistema de sincronización de dos puertas de luz separadas por una distancia. Cada puerta de luz consta de un módulo #láser en un lado, y una #LDR en otro. Al cortar el haz de luz en este caso, se calcula la velocidad de un cuerpo. https://t.co/s3ewObnLbV…

Raspberry Pi Laser Scanner: The Laser Scanner is a Raspberry Pi embedded system device able to digitize objects into .obj mesh files for reproduction using 3D printing. The device does this by utilizing a line laser and an integrated PiCam to perform computer…

Desktop Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man: I always wanted to build a desktop - sized "Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man", also known as Tube man, also known as a Skydancer, Air dancer...This project started back into 2013, I presented…

The aim of this project is to manufacture a stylish and fully programmable desktop companion by blending together modern electronics and a custom laser-cut wooden enclosure.

For any project there’s typically a trade-off between quality and cost,as higher quality parts, more features, or any number of aspects of a project can drive its price up. It seems as though…

Laser XY Scanner is an open source stepper motor based scanner. The components used are low cost and very accessible. This type of laser scanner is not extremely fast and has a fairly low resolution, especially with this driver, but it can still be used in…

Centas wanted a project for his new laser cutter, and decided to make this beautiful crafted tree shadow box. While the cutting is impressive enough by itself, to take this from “cool” to “ultimate,” he added 86 individually controllable LEDs and a bundle…

Russian PhD student Ildar Rakhmatulin devised a terrifying mosquito-killing solution that pairs a Raspberry Pi, a 1W laser, and an AI neural network capable of identifying and eliminating mosquitos.

Room Weather Station: In this crafting recipe I will show you how to make your own room meteostation (almost) from scratch. Without any 3D-printers or laser cutters!It features CO2, humidity and temperature sensors, built in web server with settings and live…
