A few time ago, i found out a 3d printed Micro-Hexapod on Thingiverse. I started to work on it in the following ways: – create new accessories/components 3D printable – explore the possible ways to drive this hexapod. Here the results: – a parametric battery holder that fits perfectly on it, without screws – a parametric pen holder […]
Yesterday I was going to start watching a movie, when me and my friend pedro decided to give up on the movie and build a binary clock. After sometime thinking on how to program it, we made it. It works beautifully, so I decided to show here how I’ve done. It may not be the easiest way […]
This instructable will show you show to build an Arduino shield which can be used to control 3 servos and 1 stepper motor using 4 potentiometers. You will need: access to a laser printer/cnc router/etching chemicals 7 x 3 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 2 pin 3.5mm terminal blocks 2 x 8 pin stackable […]
Don’t worry! First, this is a rebuild out of a movie so it won’t explode for real and it won’t be worn by a real wolf. However there is fursuiting for which I am a big fan of and my own character (fursona) is a wolf and lives in a world of technology and total […]
Version 0 My first attempt at an LED Aquarium light started as an excuse to buy some of those LED light strips off of eBay. I gutted the old 18″ fluorescent fixtures and soldered together row after row of 18″ RGB LED strips. They mounted to a thin aluminum plate I screwed into the old […]

Creepy fairground attraction and Twitter App! The Psychic Hive-Mind Fortune Teller is a fairground arcade-type attraction which can tell your fortune. Even better than that though – it’s also a web-connected Twitter application that can harvest tweets and regurgitate them as fortune readings! The Fortune Teller reads the mind of a twitter discussion. It takes […]
In this Instructable I’ll show you how to make a electronic dashboard for a bicycle. We’ll be using an Arduino and a few off-the-shelf parts to create a system with light control and an LED speedometer. Step 1: Materials Arduino Micro (RadioShack #: 276-258) 12V 10W halogen bulb (RadioShack #: 272-011) (2x) 12V lamp (RadioShack […]
In this Instructable I will be giving you step-by-step instructions on how to interface The Arduino, A Motor Controller (L293D), and a laptop to make a Wifi controlled rover you can drive around your house or work from anywhere in the world. I started and made this project for my Gr.11 Computer Engineering class, it […]
This is an instructable for a bluetooth controlled Message Droid. I call it R2Blue2. It moves around and displays messages that you type using your phone or computer. Atleast it was supposed to. Due to many problems such as underpowered batteries and bad cable management I wasn’t able to extract the performance necessary. I will […]
