This head is a reading lamp which can be adjusted for direction of lighting, and dimmed as required. This Instructable combines Arduino programming, some simple electronics, carving with hand and power tools, mechanical control and a bit of woodwork. Apart from the Arduino and a few components it is mostly made from reclaimed materials. I […]
In this instructable the main focus lies on the software which I’ve created – not so much on the hardware side. You needn’t to use a high- power led for this, you can use every RGB- LED you like. The “High Power RGB LED Moodlamp” is a high power rgb led lamp which can be […]
This is a Modification of an electric wheelchair. I called it “Buggy” for two reasons. #1 My kids can still ride it around because I left the seat intact. #2 I haven’t programmed anything for a long time. I plan to create “jobs” for it in the near future. I welcome any input. Keep in […]
A homemade thermostat attachment for a crock pot (or other electric heating device). It can be used to precisely control the temperature of the crock pot for things like yogurt fermentation. Why Making yogurt is fun. It is also way cheaper than buying it. You can make yogurt on the stove or in an oven, […]

This instructable is meant to be a more complete explanation than others available online. Notably, this will provide more hardware explanation than is available in the LED Marquee instructable by led555. Goals This instructable presents the concepts involved with shift registers and high side drivers. By illustrating these concepts with an 8×8 LED matrix I […]
Bring out your 3D glasses and enjoy viewing in a novel way! I have added a new dimension to my instructable. If you do not have 3D glasses, then you can make one yourself. The following link explains how to make 3D glasses ( link ). Please Note: This instructable contains 3D images which are best viewed with […]
