If you want to build RC airplanes, you’ll need a way to make lightweight wings. 3D printing can work with foaming filament, but most 3D printers have limited build volume. A better method is to use a hot wire cutter to shape foam. Michael Rechtin’s CNC hot wire cutter automates that process acros...
Michel Willems runs a photography and print shop in Ontario, Canada. Like all business owners, Willems is always keen on improving efficiency because even small changes can have a big effect over time. He has found it useful to have easy access to important information, so he decided to leverage...
Most machines warn you before they fail. A motor begins to vibrate differently. A pump slowly drifts out of balance. A bearing develops a new mechanical signature. A cooling fan starts producing frequencies that were not present during normal operation. These changes can appear well before a comp...
Version 0.56.0 of the Arduino® Core on Zephyr is live – and it’s a sizable update to the earlier release. Think optimized performance, expanded hardware capabilities. We’re still smoothing some edges towards the official Stable release, but if you’ve been testing the beta, prepare for a meaningfu...
When Manivannan moved to the UK from India, he found that the damp winters provide the perfect conditions for mold growth in the shower. The preventative solution is to run the ventilation fan when showering, but that is easy to forget. So, he built the AntiMould Shower Sentinel to ensure discipl...
A message from Arduino CPO – Marcello Majonchi Dear Builders, Engineers, and Innovators, Arduino is built on one belief: powerful technology should be accessible to everyone who wants to make, learn, or innovate with it. Staying true to that principle in every decision we make sometimes means mak...
The Modulino family keeps growing, to allow you to easily expand your projects with new tiny modules that bring additional functionalities – in a snap! With Modulino Hub, Modulino Extender and Modulino Motors joining the range, you now have no less than 15 easy options to make building your next...
The human brain is remarkably efficient, running on the caloric equivalent of about 20 watts of power. But that’s still about 20% of the total required for your entire body, which means your head can get pretty hot. Mike Warren does big thinking and to keep his brain from overheating, he built th...
When talking about large language models (LLMs), people usually imagine a general-purpose assistant: something that can answer questions about weather, politics, software, history, travel, cooking, electronics – and almost any other topic. The model is expected to know a little bit about everythi...
All airplane engines have the same basic goal, which is to create forward thrust. But the modern airline industry is an exercise in maximizing efficiency and the most efficient option for large aircraft tends to be a turbofan jet engine. Most of us never get to see those up close, but you can 3D...
If you want some very cold air, you’re going to have to dive deep into thermodynamic wizardry to find a practical way to get it. Hyperspace Pirate did that digging and discovered the Gifford-McMahon cryocooler design. That is just simple enough that Hyperspace Pirate was able to build his own cry...
UNO Q starts where that frustration ends. Let’s look under the hood: here are four reasons why UNO Q completely crushes overpriced, complicated hardware with a single, unified platform.
