3D Hangouts This Week
Just finished live streaming this week. We highlighted last week's learn guide, Talking D20, and showed off clear resin parts (Thanks to PhilB!). Pedro showed off his Dual-Extruded D20 and mentioned the STLs for 3D printers with multi-material capabilities.
For the prototyping segment, Pedro show his foam-core Tombstone and a 64x32 RGB Matrix. It'll use the matrix FeatherWing and PropMaker RP2040 Feather. Feature wise, it'll have text and graphics displayed on the matrix with accompanying sound FX and a servo-controlled crow triggered with a TOF sensor. Liz Clark will be collaborating with him to write the code in CircuitPython.
I'm working on a synth guitar using PropMaker RP2040 Feather with two 1x4 NeoKey QT boards, rotary QT encoders, speaker, switches and a strum mechanism. Liz will also be collaborating with me on the code, which will be done in CircuitPython using the SynthIO library.
For this week's Timelpase Tueday segment, we were both surprised with the tBulb product from toolmoon. It's a really neat USB powered lightbulb that is meant for attaching to a 3D printed base. Their thingiverse profile has tons of in-house designs that look amazing! Their product is also available to purchase on amazon.
Community makes this week was mostly props, which always fun to see!
