When we want to prototype a rover, we’ve developed a tendency to immediately reach for the 3D printer and Arduino or Raspberry Pi. It’s easy to forget the prototyping tool many of us grew up using: LEGO. The [Brick Experiment Channel] has not forgotten, and in the video after the break demonstrates how he used Lego […]

There are many schools of thought when it comes to keeping vinyl records clean. It’s a ritual that’s nearly as important as the one that comes after it — queuing up the record and lowering the needle. We’ve seen people use everything from Windex and microfiber towels to ultrasonic cleaning machines that cost hundreds or

This instructable was created in fulfillment of the project requirement of the Makecourse at the University of South Florida (www.makecourse.com). The Flex Claw is the next best project for any student, engineer, and tinkerer alike that will surely grip your audience’s attention. Run fully by an Arduino Uno, the Flex Claw is a simplified approach
Love Spark is a heart-shaped pendant that blinks an LED every three seconds, I loosely based that on an incomplete psychology research by a friend that not-so-factually estimated that people thought of & interacted with their friends & loved ones every 3 seconds on average. So I guess I could say it’s not all just
I’m going to realize the famous Ciclop 3D scanner. All the step that are well explained on the original project aren’t present. I made some fix to simplify the process, first I print the base, and than I restilize the PCB, but go on. Step 1: Printing and Assembly Part For assembly part the best solution is to refer

If you think about building a moving machine, you probably will consider wheels or tracks or maybe even a prop to take you airborne. When [nwlauer] found an earthworm in the garden, it inspired a 3D-printed robot that employs peristaltic motion. You can see a video of it moving, below. The robot uses pneumatics and soft plastic,

Hi makers, we are here again with a beautiful and stylish lamp Project. VORONOI HEART LAMP. In this project, we benefited from epoxy resin material and 3D printer. Step 1: What Is VORONOI ? In mathematics, a Voronoi diagram is a partitioning of a plane into regions based on distance to points in a specific

A set of helping hands is a nice tool to have around the shop, especially if soldering or gluing small components is a common task. What we all really want, though, is a robotic arm. Sure, it could help us set up glue or solder but it can do virtually any other task it is
