Nonsense enthusiast / degenerate thing maker / obligate goofy-goober Opinions are not my own, they are officially the core values of my employer.
Check out my state-of-the-shit-I-had-laying-around vodka-cooled resin curing system. DMs are open, investors.
And the coolest part: the top surface is a replaceable protoboard PCB. So you can breadboard something, then if you want to keep it, solder everything in place and pull it off as a permanent PCB and just put on a fresh "Wig."
If you're wondering what I'm cooking here, it's a new thing I'm super hyped on. It's like a regular breadboard BUT: 6 holes so you can put double row headers in the middle aligned power rails a 70 pin card edge connector on top mapped to the rows (for adding a Jumperless-as-a-module or whatever)
I think Sam underestimated my willingness to turn my house into a Superfund site if it means I can sanity check models as I design them. This was a 12 minute print (plus half an hour of living in goo land.)
@settinger.net missed his monthly appointment to tell me not to buy a resin printer so I did. These things friggin' rule (for the kinds of things I tend to make) But I also see why the washing and curing stuff is such a big deal, my tupperware full of vodka and 3 UV flashlights aren't gonna cut it.
I bought this stop motion armature as a source of ball and socket joints and made a huge mistake by putting it together. It is now a friend so I need to get another one to harvest for linkages.
This was my super janky setup just to check if it would work at all
Oh yeah ha. I should probably mention that. The reason is it replaces the existing LED wishbone board that's already on there. They don't make reverse mount 1x1mm LEDs so have a separate board to light up the logo and nano header, and it catches the light that bounces back to light up the text.
If you preordered one of these, I should have them out todayish. Turns out they're easier to install than I thought, but I'll have a link to the instructions on the product page before they get to you. shop.jumperless.org/products/ala...
It still blows my mind you can get a 1mm working height pogo pin.
The ALASKAN BULL WORM! PSRAM Mod kits are in. I was worried about the fit around that flash chip but the vibes-based clearance was so on point you could probably get away with just friction fitting them.
Idk what to call it, it’s like a Matrix Mixer (but cooler because the backend is a Jumperless) with an insane array of 50 3-axis magnetometers so you can plug in knobs or springy door stoppers or Space Mice into the jacks and to control stuff. The functionality is kinda falling out of the design
**Refuses to elaborate further (but mostly because I have no idea wtf this thing will actually do yet)**
I use @elecrow.bsky.social for any production stuff and I will shill them endlessly. They've saved me from my own stupidity quite a few times.
I love how fabs have such low self-esteem. They'll be like, "hey those silkscreen features are too tiny, our terrible process will turn them into mush" and you say "that's fine, just try your best" and then they fucking nail it every time.
omg it's soo expensive, like $1200 in setup fees. But if like 1000 people wanted a physical hardware shitpost it wouldn't be too bad
I really need to stop reading peoples' comments, they keep giving me horrible ideas. Please direct all blame for this one to @aryafairywren.bsky.social
I figure y'all would want this footprint so I'm making it worse before I put it up on GitHub
