  • Things that don't work

  • I'm an iPhone user, so the phone i use with the Mavic's controller is an iPhone 6. The controller plugs into the lightning connector on the bottom and appears, I assume, as a USB device to the phone.My original idea to get HDMI out was to use Apple's...
  • Hotend testing framework

  • With the AnyCubic's Kossel assembled, I'm replacing the standard hotend assembly with a 3d printed carrier designed to accept the high-temp resin hotend. You can see the frame here: The hotend will slot into place and be secure with the fan bolts. I...
  • Continuation of a Theme

  • Pixel Badge 2 : Dark Pixel Clockwise from top left. Protoboard, Cardboard v1 and v2, followed by v2.2 and v2.1 of Pixel Badge 2 : Dark PixelI wasn't finished with this whole pixel pcb idea after Defcon 27 so I'm continuing to develop it. ...
  • The 2023 update: I'm not dead

  • First of all, apologies for the lack of activity. Turns out reverse engineering is not all fun and games: apparently there's a lot of hours of tedious and repetitive work to do (who would've guessed, lol). University work and a general lack of time (and...
  • The supports/bearings

  • Drill two holes, almost all the way through, two blocks of something the same size as the outer diameter of your roller blade bearings. It's a common size like 3/4 or 7/8in. Make them identical. For the hole you are after, you need a nut on the threaded...
  • Cutting Plastic And LMR Distraction

  • Let's Make Robots (LMR) has new owners. The transition to new owners did not go very smoothly. I've received an apology for being blocked from the site so I've editing this log. (Edit: On 21 Sept., 2015 I ended my membership with LMR. They wanted me...
  • As seen on another website

  • Rod Elliott designed a power-on delay at http://sound.whsites.net/valves/ht-delay.html using the same trick as I described in a previous log at https://hackaday.io/project/11681-power-supply-power-on-sequencer/log/55676-latest-considerationsspy on the...
  • Center-line extruder mount.

  • I think I may move the extruder to half way up on the center-line of the push-rod.If I position it right, it won't move much and it's mass will actually help to stabilize the end effector.Mocked up the basic idea in OpenSCAD while my top corners are...
  • Welding and Articulation Test

  • I got the frame welded up and threw on some lawn mower wheels and threaded rod to test the double-articulation. I was afraid it might be too sloppy, but it's actually very solid and should ensure that the mini-tractor has good traction. The turn radius...
  • Engine Block

  • I recommend gluing the engine block to the pipe first, as once it’s attached you can simply thread the support rod into the rocket, allowing easier clamping. Apply some Gorilla Glue to the bottom end of the pipe and place the engine block on it, using...
  • Throttle and Choke Servos

  • Connecting a servo to throttle and choke is one of the last things to be done before the hover test.  I've been taking a look at the hardware on the engine to see what's required.The engine user manual doesn't cover anything regarding the mechanical...
  • Minimizing backlash

  • So far backlash hasn't really been a concern but the other day I had this idea that should help reducing it. It's similar to what was done in this machine which was recently featured on the blog where two nuts were pressed in opposite directions by some...
  • A new high accuracy tilt sensor

  • It's time to coil! We need 5 layers of 0.25 copper coil for each coil. To make your life easier you can DIY a simple coiling machine like this:Or, if you've got access to a lathe, you can use that too. Just strengthen the previously prepared cell to...
  • Beforehand

  • The World Create Day was a pretty great excuse to pair up with out semi-regular event, Super Happy Hacker House.It's an open house, where everyone can come in, bring a project, talk about things they've done, and then do some lightning talks. Sound familiar?https://www.instagram.com/p/BTJxQdnFdrS/?taken-by=vanhackspaceThe...
  • Newton's Cradle #3

  • 3rd Newton's cradle. Steel balls, attached by epoxied on nuts. The balls were colorized by heating with propane torch. Not to red hot, this would leave an ugly scale. With heat they first turn a straw light brown, then finally blue black. I tried to...
