Torbay Tinkerers

Snap Electronics Amplifier

This is an education electronics kit we have at the STEAM cafe and Discovery centre, it is designed for education, I was experimenting with this at the Tinkerers meeting today as the centre is looking at running workshops using these kits.

Another good meeting today, we had an update on the Drag Car that Helen is working on, this now works better, sub 2 seconds for the track, however it seems to spin after slowing down.

But great progress.

There is a write up on my blog

I am currently having an issue with my WriteFreely Blog, this was displaying unable to connect, it still does for most pages, for some reason, yesterday it did manage to display something, none of the links worked and it looks like the code to help format the page has gone.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this? Any known issues caused by updates.

This is what Meta, X stand against

To try and help promote the Fediverse, I got some small business cards made up, these are illustrated in the photos below.

Nothing fancy, just some simple text, Fediverse logo, qr code and a link to fediverse.party
