20240514 Lighting for the AndersFP Blaster Pt.03
Um, yeah, I just created version 4.0…It’s not what I’d normally do but with the 3D print in my hand, I did more and more measurements and modified the board further. This time, I have decided not to implement any sensors if the trigger was pulled halfway. It is fun but figuring out the optical […]
20240506 Wrong Guesstimation
Remember the previous post I did about guesswork by placing the PCB on top of an image of the shape? Well, this time, it did not work if what I discover is true. This is because after I had located the stl extension for the obsolete Sketchup Make 2017, I was able to import 3d […]
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 […]
202040408 1/6th Proton Pack: The Guesstimation Process
Fitting a circuit board into a scale model is quite challenging and it usually ends up being a bespoke design. The challenge is to maximise the space within and making sure all the components fit in there. So far, in most scale models, I can skip this process because the available space was more than […]
