Arduino Telegraph
Interesting build with old CDROM parts. The author is a little light on how to make one yourself, but thankfully has enough pictures to get the point across. https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-Powered-Writing-Telegraph/

Touchpad to gcode
Interesting build, the author uses a rather big, and clear, touchpad to draw something that the arduino will convert to gcode, which then can be sent to a CNC. This could be a good kid project (they draw something, then … Continue reading

Nice coil winder
Using an arduino and 2 stepper motors, the author build a coil winder. Not sure what the author is using it for, but I was thinking it could be adapted for making coils for wind power generators. https://www.instructables.com/GRBL-Based-Coil-Winder-From-Water-Pipe/

Interesting automated wire cutter
OK unless I was doing some sort of mass project, I don’t think I would build this. But its a neat build overall if you have a bunch of wire you needed cut into certain lengths and colors. One addition … Continue reading

Nice drawbot, not sure where the author got the mounts
I like this build, but…no idea where the mounts came from for the motors and arduino. I didn’t find even some drawings for the. Maybe this is going to be a kit? https://www.instructables.com/DIY-Arduino-Drawing-Robot/

Another Kinetic Sand Art Table
Another nice build. I like how the parts are all 3D printed so you do not need to make any custom stuff. I like how he uses fake leather as a buffer between the magnet and the steel ball to … Continue reading

Cool beer tray
The author uses an arduino to control the LEDS to give the tray a nice light affect. Gives me some ideas for other serving trays. https://www.instructables.com/Rainbow-LED-Roulette-Beer-Tray/

Neat M&M sorter
Neat build, the author 3D printed the hardware and uses an arduino as the brains to sort M&M’s. https://www.instructables.com/Arduino-MM-Color-Sorter/

Making wooden nuts
The author uses 3D printed out templates to draw out the outside of the nut, pretty neat build if you want to make really big nuts out of wood. The nuts would be insulated which could be nice in some … Continue reading

One fancy 3D printed camera motion control rig
Wow this is one complex build. Not so sure I would make this one, even if my printer could print the larger parts. Nice to watch the build thought.
