I have wanted a plasma cutter for a while and instead of buying one I decided to make one. The 2D plotter machine did not take too long to make and has been sitting around for about a year while I...
For years I have been looking into DMX controllers, DMX lights and MIDI controllers to see how they work and how I could make some lights/controllers my self. I have made a number of DMX...
This is the first prototype for a magnetic robotic cleaner. This cleaner will be used to pick up screws and other ferrous steel parts from the ground. Over the years, I have always had a problem...
This is the new compressor controller that I had made to replace the old one. The old controller was a mechanical controller which used a bold to set the max pressure. The old controller was...
The old laser cutters water cooling system was very simple with no monitoring and only consisting of a fish pond pump in a bucket of water. For a while now, I have been wanting the upgrade to a...
PLEX is a development board using the Arduino UNO bootloader to be easily programmed by the Arduino IDE. The board has many selectable analog inputs and digital output (up to 32, not including...
The base The base design is done and is working well as the base. It will need to be changed a little for different functions, functions like dipping in multiple different solutions. The...
Base design The base design is working well as is the base. It will need to be changed slightly to attain different functionality such as dipping in multiple different solutions. The design...
This DMX controller to made to control stage/party lights through the DMX signal. This DMX signal is widely used for stage lighting systems at festival and clubs. This is the second DMX...
This mill was made for grinding sand and cleaning objects like rusty bolts. It works but takes a very long time to grind sand down, this is because of the size of the balls are too small....
This is a temperature logger to log the temperature over time. I have been wanting to make one of these for a while. It will be used to see how Low and high the temperature during the days...
This machine was a test machine that can dip objects into a solution for coating or cleaning. It works well but the dipping space is not that large, hard to use when the object is large or the...
A while ago, I got some Broken RGB party lights from Jaycar for very cheap. For a long time, they have been sitting on my window ledge waiting for me to install a new controller. when I was...

This controller controls a RGB LED strip with different colours and patterns. the controller that came with the strip was only controlled by an IR remote control and was very small. The problem...
This little WIFI buggy/robot is a test for a much bigger robot. I want to know if i could control a robot with my phone and by using the ESP8266, I can. The Robot is using the PLEX board to...
Using parts from HDD, I have created a spinner that spins a disk, coating PCBs or other flat things in an somewhat even coat of liquid. It is also can be used as a magnetic stirrer by using the...
After finding out that a new controller for the solar heating will cost $500, i got to work building my own. As it is going into winer, the controller will go into 'winter' mode. This...
This is a device that can identify cables and test them to ensure that the pins are correct. It has a 16x2 LCD screen to display the cable type or pins configuration. It uses a module that I...
I have been 3D printing for a while now and now want to to take it to the next level with higher quality. I have done a lot of research on plastic injection moulding and before I go any further...
