I have done the following work on Net classes in KiCad, which is derived from what I wrote about IPC 2221 standard trace widths and Creepage and Clearance a while ago. I have been doing some work on my ROV, where I am trying to make two lights for the […]

This looks like a way to allow for addressing nodes on a CAN, RS485 or DMX network without needing to use either DIP switches or PCB changes.
I have an Adeept Robot HAT, but the Blue Robotics BlueOS works natively with the Navigation hat (it’s probably pedantic, but neither of these two hats meets the requirements of Pi Hats). I was looking to see what the functionality of them both was, and ended up making a back-to-back […]
Ian Hughes’ 3D-printed files for K9 also include files to create internal components that fit under the side featuring the ‘K·9’ logo. (Yes, I have used an Interpunct.) The design features two panels held in place with 10 mm diameter magnets. Unfortunately, Ian does not include any colour information in […]
Ian Hughes has done a lot of work on making a 3D-printable K9. Details of Doctor Who’s K-9 and other science-fiction models can be found on his Patreon page. I am currently working on printing the external parts for the main body, The parts are printed on our Prusa MK3 […]
Make an item of test equipment that can respond to SCPI (IEEE-488.1) commands. including *IDN?, *OPT? and *TST
It is helpful to know when the firmware on the device was compiled, it can be displayed on a screen, or sent viewed over serial.
Following on from my Makevember post yesterday, where I tried to make turbine blades, and Failed… I fed 6050 from SG6050 into Fusion 360 and this is what it gave me: SG6050 profile To check it wasnt it that was broken, I ran the script with the defult value of […]
I missed a Makevember post yesterday, and the one for today is going to be quite virtual again… Last time I did a post on K-9’s Back it was to work out how to read the buttons, and to do a first draft of the CADing up for the 3D […]
Today’s Makevember There seems to be very little consensus on the arangement of the colours of the buttons on the back of K-9, K9 has a 4 x 3 array of buttons on his back, I am using this image Binary kitten got me from the k9 at the Doctor […]
Following on from my previous Makevember posts… This is another virtual post, I built the Wind Turbine Hub as designed by Daniel Davis, one of the changes I would like to make, is the methord of making the blades. It looks like Daniel has a background in Mechanical Engineering, and […]
After my previous attempts at cadding up air foils, that can be found here and here for #Makevember, I came across QBlade; According to Wikipedia: QBlade is an open source wind turbine calculation software, distributed under the GNU General Public License. The software is seamlessly integrated into XFOIL, an airfoil […]
