20240511 1/6th Proton Pack: The Prints are in!

Yesterday, I got the opportunity to collect the long-awaited 3D prints. And I am quite impressed with the result. We did discuss more on going further on this Project but as it started to rain and my Wife wants me back asap, we have to cut everything short. In hindsight, this would be much faster […]

After a week, it was time to collect my 3D prints and one of them would be the clip from the Blade Runner PKD Blaster which was designed by AndersP. This time, I will take my time to create the circuit board and not rush through things. This not only derails my limited budget but […]

Just yesterday, I saw a friend of mine, Dean Eyre on Facebook asking for some assistance to light up one of his models. It was a very simple request where 5 red LEDs needs to “glow up” once power is applied to it. At that time, the only clue was his posted image below: ORIGIN […]

Studio Scale Despatch Probe Droids from GoldenArmor.com

This is one of those models which I discovered decades after a Movie. And basically, the modelers took a few armoured cars’s upper hulls and glued them together into a pentagram design. It’s a very clever idea, really. But having to re-create this using original parts can be very expensive since some models are already […]

Multicolour Silkscreen PCB from JLCPCB

Multicolour Silkscreen PCB from JLCPCB

While trawling through my JLCPCB account, I came across this notification dated April 1st. They are now able to to multilayer silkscreen which in other words, you can now put images on your PCB. I have seen some earlier designs from microcontrollers (Arduino?) but they used them sparingly to only mark the I/O pins. Designing […]
