The re-design of the PCB arrived from JLCPCB in just 11 days. In summary, this circuit board is to connect 5x 0805 type SMD LEDs to simulate the revolving siren light at the top of the Spinner. Originally, it was a 2 PCB concept where the LEDs were sandwiched between the two boards. However, during […]

20250922 Razor Crest The Continuation
From a Land Far, Far, Away… Oh, wow. My last update on this Project was in 20240217. And that’s more than one and a half years ago! And it was also the time of uncertainty due to a tribal scuffle resulting from a deteriorating papa. It was also the time where I had to slow […]
20250916 Dragofly by Cut Glue Transform
Do go through his channel to experience how he took an old vacuum cleaner and transformed it into a beautiful model. He uses a lot of discarded parts, and 3D prints to get the model done. However, I do not encourage the use cyanoacrylate glue (aka CA, SuperGlue) since in this humid weather, they will […]
20250913 Yamato 2199 Expansion Set
This was one of those times when I joined a pre-order but it never arrived. This was also one of the reasons I kept my 1/500 Yamato 2199 in storage. The expansion set came out around mid-2014, just half a year after the 1/500 Yamato 2199. In a nutshell, the expansion set gives you that […]
20250911 Spinner: Top Revolving Light New PCB Design
With the new dimensions for the SMD LED’s cut-out, I re-created the shape again from InkScape before importing it into EaglePCB. The only problem is that no matter what I did, there is a ‘leak’. Understandably, JLCPCB confirmed this when I uploaded the design. So, most of the day was spent on trying to figure […]
