Python Powered Robotic Foam Dart Turret With Sound Effects using the Yukon
This 3D printed robot fires a spread of foam darts after delivering a menacing line.
It’s built around a Pimoroni Yukon, running python on a Raspberry Pi Pico.
With some help from

piwars-2018-part-2-the-goodies
The Goodie bag that I received for my 12th place in Piwars was rather awesome. In this video I dive into it, and also put on a free T-Shirt I had sent to me from Kano Computing! Lots of Raspberry Pi oriented goodies here. I also dive into soldering the Piz-Moto kit!

discovering-the-v-block-piwars-2019
While preparing for Piwars, I've needed to drill out or file round things. I found that the clamps I had wouldn't do the job, which led me to find this tool, new to me, the v-block.
The V-Block is a tool I will be able to use in my robotics Lab to build robots, specifically for cutting, drilling or filing round things like axles. I designed and made simple 1-1 90-degree gearboxes for my robot with a 3D Printed housing, but then found gear slippage or simply keeping gears in place needed the axles to be filed down.
PiWars is a Robot building competition building autonomous robots with the Raspberry Pi.

2019-07-rigol-oscilloscope
The Orionrobots Lab gets a new Oscilloscope. It's an oldie but a goodie, the Rigol DS1052 E.
This is intended for use in our robotics projects, for looking at PWM signals along with I2C and SPI stuff, power supply ripple etc.

LEGO
lego-duplo-rc-robot-kits
Lego made some remote control robot/Car kits for Duplo. In this video, I open a kit with my son and then we play with them. This RC car kit was part of the Lego Dacta "Toolo" range for education and came with little working screwdrivers too.
The Lego kit number is RC9203-1.
There are segments of the video missing, it was filmed in 2015 and shelved because I couldn't find the missing footage. However, these Lego cars are cool and my son is pretty adorable there too.

PIHUT
pihut-codemas-advent-calendar-day-6
Today Pheobe and I open and build day 6 of the PiHut Codemas Calendar (17th Dec), adding a light sensor to the Pico.
Things don't entirely go to plan, so there's a bit of debugging too.

2021
2021-electronic-sound-advent-calendar-19
This is the twenty-fourth day (Christmas Eve!) with this electronic Sound Advent Calendar. This solderless breadboard kit builds component-by-component into an electronic synthesizer circuit. It has a new electronics experiment each day.
I open the twenty-fourth window in the calendar, which turns this into the full 256 step sequencer. I build it and try out all the modes this device has.
- Chapters
- 00:00:00 Intro to last 2021 advent calendar day and opening 24th door
- 00:01:11 Build the electronic synthesizer/sequencer
- 00:09:26 Verify the breadboard wiring
- 00:10:31 Test Electronic Sequencer Christmas song
- 00:12:48 Checking the other electronic sound functions
- 00:14:23 Atari Punk Console Emulator
- 00:14:53 Three oscillator synthesizer
- 00:15:45 Tuning Mode
- 00:16:11 Note length adjustment (Sequencer Tempo)
- 00:16:24 Sequencer Playback and Programming
- 00:25:16 Other synthesizer functions explained
- 00:26:31 Enhancement - diffuser for the LEDs to avoid dazzling
- 00:27:24 Yes - proud of my pun
- 00:29:44 Overall verdict on this electronic sound advent calendar
- 00:30:40 Outtro and merry Christmas to my viewers followed by outtakes
Expect bleepy synthesizer noises!

wiring-arduino-grbl-to-a-3020-cnc
How I wired an Arduino to use with a 3020 CnC machine for use with GRBL, replacing an earlier method using point-to-point connections on the parallel port with an internal header. I also show a couple of items I received with the parts - the PiFace Real Time Clock (RTC).
Filmed in 2014 - without a tripod or proper lighting. One the first attempts at soldering with the camera - I apologise that it is mostly the back of my wrist...
Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MmxsdWPjTtQ

MOULD
mould-making-with-3020-cnc
Using a 3020 Desktop CnC machine to make a mould of a Tshirt shape a viewer asked about - as a keyring.
Software used: Inkscape, Universal Gcode Sender (with grbl on Arduino) and jscut.
Materials used: Trycut (by Tekwani), Gede Crystal Clear resin and regrettably blue masking tape.
