This instructable explains how to motorize a time lapse rail using a step motor driven by an Arduino. We will mainly focus on the Motion Controller that drives the step motor assuming you already have a rail you want to motorize. For example when dismantling a machine I found two rails that I could convert into time

A while ago I made a large 20 sided Die. Numerous people wanted me to build them one and since the most difficult part of the project was getting the cutting angles just right, I decided to make another which would allow for more accurate assembly. This time 3D printed instead of plywood and glue. I

This project is a small, battery-powered LED ring that fits perfectly inside of your Rav Vast drum. It uses color-changing RGB LEDs and a microphone that allows you to change the color or pattern with changes in volume. You don’t need any special skills for the construction (though you may pick some up along the way) Step

There are some projects where you make a functional thing or practical thing. There are some projects where you make a beautiful thing. And then there are projects like this where you decide to slap a razor blade and balloon on some robots and battle them, Mario Kart style 😀 I’ll start this by saying

I have always enjoyed the various acrylic laser-cut night lights that others have made. Thinking more about these I thought that it would be great if the night light could also double as a form of entertainment. With this is mind I decided to create jigsaw puzzle that would fit into a thin box that

Note from the author: In an effort to get this ready in time for the safe and secure challenge, I have had to make a few compromises to my box, but that doesn’t mean you have to! I have left my original ambitions in the text, as inspiration for you to make the best Time

With Valentines Day approaching I thought it would be nice to make a project for the people who are special in my life; I thought the people of instructables would probably like it too! I’ve designed a ~100mm x 100mm or ~4in x 4in PCB heart. It uses the Attiny85 SMD microprocessor as the brain.

The goal of this instructable is to explain how I made a wifi-connected light switch (also called remotes further). The goal of these remotes is to turn on and off several wifi-connected relays. The relays are not explained in this instructable. They are explained in a separate instructable that I made in the past: ESP8266 Wifi

This project came to my mind when doing my MEM (Mechanical Engineering Measurement) project, a subject in my B.tech. The idea is to measure the angular velocity of my bicycle’s wheel. Thus knowing the diameter and the all time mathematical legend the pi(3.14) the speed can be calculated. Also knowing the number of time the wheel has
