A new member brought along some conference badges that he and some other people have created and hand soldered together:
A work in progress…
These colour LCD’s are very nifty:
WeMOS with CNC routed out acrylic base – with RGB LED:
Phillip brought along his 3D printer to do some test prints and re-calibrate:
Andrew brought along a nifty CAT Android FLIR phone. Yes, it has a built in FLIR long wave Infra-red camera permanently built in – very cool. Here we are discussing some 3D printer issues:
and a close up of the Felix ver: 3.1 3D Printer in action:
I like how there is a suitable mix of normal photography + edge detection, all over layed onto the FLIR photo. Below, is a HP monitor 19V PSU lying on the floor:
unfortunately a member copped a bee sting in a finger while outside. Even after applying an ice pack, it’s kind of easy to see which finger was bitten::
Stephen’s just picked up a Mosaic – Palette Pro 2 a four filament in-line splicer unit for his Felix 3D Printer. We are all looking forward to seeing it in action and the results:
Rob’s been designing up a car monitoring PCB:
all in KiCAD:
There was some colourful bead work going on as well:
Stacy has had a 19″ dead HP LCD monitor re-purposed as a light table for her bead work. Here it is with the light off:
This iPhone photo doesn’t do it justice. It’s quite bright:
Stephen brought along an $80 drone. It has a built in HD fixed camera and can record video and fly for 7-8 minutes and comes in a nifty carry case AND includes a controller:
of course we had to flash it up and check out the video feed:
He is also working on building a RC WiFi based cheap plane:
The SW Maker SMD Soldering Challenge kit was doing the rounds:
some work is going on a butterfly release mechanism:
