I build stuff. Virtual and physical. For both business and pleasure. Join me in my development, design and electronics journey. 2 weeks ago I strained my back while doing the heavy duty task of putting my 7 month old son to bed. As a lot of us desk nerds, my core muscles are non existent, so this was a matter of time for it to happen. Unfortunately it means I currently can’t spent any time behind my desk. Luckily there are other ways of fulfilling my maker needs. When I bought my 3D printer a little over 3 years ago, I convinced my wife that it wasn’t just yet another useless gadget. I told her it was a tool which would help me solve problems I didn’t know I had. This week, I solved one of those problems using Fusion 360 and a few which allows me to program the ATTiny10 and a small delay caused by a wonderful sunny Ibiza holiday, it’s time to get the WS2812 2020 leds 8-bit micro controller small enough to be confused with an obese ant. Unfortunately I didn’t succeed in programming this tiny guy, so this I want to do some testing with the WS2812 2020 leds. Because I don’t have a st*ip these leds, I soldered some separate WS2812 leds onto a prototype breakout. Unfortunately the traces don’t fully reach the LEDs on both sides so I had to bridge a pretty large gap using solder. If you are a regular visitor of my blog, you might know that (with a few exceptions) I’ve been posting a new blog posts every two weeks. Unfortunately I skipped this regular update last week, because I’ve been a little bit sick. Nothing major, but I didn’t want to contaminate my boxes of SMD components with germs. So after a few days of sleep it’s time to get back to business and start with something speakers. Mounting them to the wall could be done using some purchased mounts. But when you own a 3D printer it’s more fun to design and Over the course of the last few weeks I’ve been building the Arduino powered Model Train Automator it is time to work on the software. Since the train automator runs on an Arduino Nano, it’s time to fire up Visual Studio Code and start
