New four wheel prototype of my 3D printed 1 lb combat bot. It steers much more easily on four wheels than the previous two wheel design, though I still need a lot of driving practice. Still need to build and attach the drum spinner weapon, and I've already thought of half a dozen changes I want to make to the chassis, but it's progressing.

I got interviewed by Dale Dougherty of @makemagazine and had a chance to talk about my most recent project write up as well as other maker topics. Now I'd like to make an LED cube and orb as large as the ones in the picture appear to be!

This SMT Garden by @alpenglow is not only beautiful, but also a great way to practice surface mount soldering! It comes with different sized components from 1206 down to 0402, and has lots of places to practice soldering them on the back before moving on to assemble the blinky components.
It also comes with a battery holder, batteries, and magnetic standoffs for displaying it proudly.

@wizard box is built and now I'm just sitting here staring at pretty LED patterns. It's awesome!

All the printing is done, and the icosahedron is assembled. The triangles are printed from translucent TPU and have channels inside to run addressable string lights through them. The links need to be redesigned so they don't slide around as much, but it's a pretty decent proof of concept.
