Taming the Modela 20 (small milling machine)

Image: 

Using a 1/64" milling bit on PCB has resulted in 6 broken bits, some my fault, but also a few to no reason other than that the design in combination with the material was to much strain on this very tiny milling bit. It's so small it's difficult to see if its broken with the naked eye.

Since the Shark bass is custom made, the electronics should also be made at Fablab!

Arduino Starterskit

This Project will document the work in progress for designing an Arduino starters kit. Arduino is a micro-controller that is able to provide prototypes with simple (and advanced) interaction.
To let people easily learn how to work with the Arduino micro-controller I will design and create a starters kit.

signature machine

For this project we've created an cnc signature machine, with the looks and feel that fit a dictator.

It started with a request from the artist Jude Crilly who had the idea of publishing poems from (in)famous dictators. On the day of publishing she wanted to have a live signing session. Thus came the request for a machine. This machine had to look and feel like a dictator which is probably easier to design than one that doesn't.

We've decided tha make the frame on a lasercutter, and for the electronics we've used parts from the reprap 3d printer.

Scottie sensor-pcb design and Bits of Trouble

Image: 
project: 

I've been making PCB's for the Scottie Project for some time now, and recently i've started to make a board that contains all the sensors and actuators we're using.
The sensors it contains/connects to are an accelerometer and four touch sensors.
The actuators are six high brightness RGB leds and four solenoids.
