In late January, the Neil Squire Solutions team worked with us to build some LipSyncs. Many of them were soldering for the first time, but they successfully built seven devices together. Check out some photos here.

If you're new to making, you may shy away from taking on a project like the LipSync. To prove that it shouldn't be intimidating at all, we put together this time-lapse of one of the Solutions team members building a device. Click the image below to open the video in a new window:

On February 3rd, Piriya and Gemma from the Solutions team were at the ATIA Maker Day in Orlando. They saw several interesting projects and learned a lot:
