 Hey, what's up, folks? Welcome back to another 3D Hangouts. My name is Noelle Ruiz. I'm a designer here at Adafruit. Joining me every week is my brother Pedro. Hello. Good morning, everybody. I'm Pedro. I was creative tech here at Adafruit, and every week we're here to share three deprinted projects featuring electronics from Adafruit. That's right. This is the show we combine 3D printing and DIY electronics to make inspirational projects. Hello, everybody. Welcome to 3D Hangouts. This is episode 422. It is November 15, 2023. We are hanging out in the Discord chat room. If you'd like to join us during this show, you can drop us questions, comments, gifts, memes, gifs, all that good stuff. I'll take a couple moments to welcome folks that are watching live. We'll go into the freebies, the coupon code of the morning, and then we'll jump into the show. Pedro, you got links. Pedro, you got all the links. Yes, posting all these because I didn't offload anything to my phone to post. Yeah, it's always a rough start. Not always, but... I mean, we're on for like half an hour rehearsing. I always forget this. Yeah, yeah. Well, anyway, I'll say hello to Duwester hanging out, squid.jpg. Ross in. Good morning. Hello. Good morning. Wherever you may be. Good morning. Good afternoon. And then we have a link to the Discord server if you have not joined yet. It's free to do so. The link to that is at the top in the banner here. It's at discord.gg slash Adafruit. That is the Discord invite link. We're hanging out in the live broadcast chat channel. And with that, I think I'll go ahead and jump into Adafruit.com slash free to take a look at the freebies. These are freebies that get added to your order. If you spend more money, you get more things. These get automatically added to your order. I think I said that. For orders that are $99 or more, you get a free PCB coaster with a golden Adafruit logo. It's made out of aluminum and it's a little bit thicker, so that's really nice. And if your order is $149 or more, you get the free PCB coaster plus an Adafruit KB2040. That's that lovely RP2040 based dev board. If your order is $199 or more, you get the KB2040, the PCB coaster, and free UPS ground shipping for continental US only. And if your order is $299 or more, you'll get the free ground shipping, the KB2040, the PCB coaster, and a circuit playground express. These get automatically added to your cart, as I said. And you go to Adafruit.com slash free for more details. If you want a 10% off coupon code with your order, this is today's code special to the show audience. Kualia is the coupon code. Kualia. That is the keyword, the magic word of the day. Because we have a project this week that has to do with the Kualia ESP32 S3. That is right. I'm posting up the link. We have our holiday shipping deadlines for this year. That is correct. In there, is my screen sharing? Probably not. I'm sharing mine, so. Well, whoops, I almost removed mine. That's funny. All right, so if you're doing UPS ground, the latest is Tuesday, December 12th. So if you're doing a ground order, you'll want to get your order in by 11 a.m. Eastern time. That is so soon. And it's pretty soon. Even sooner, if you're using USPS ground or priority mail, you want to get it in by Thursday, December 7th. If you want your stuff before the holidays. And then for international orders, USPS November 16th, because it could take up to 30 days or more with worldwide shipping. Tomorrow. That's right. DHL Express Monday, December 11th. All the details are in the blog post. It is a featured blog post. You can also go to Adafruit.com slash shipping. I think that's a quick URL. But we do this every year. And we, I don't know if anyone else does this, but I know we do it every year. We've been doing it for 10 years plus. Just looking out, making sure that your Christmas gifts. If you're doing Christmas gifts, and it's important to you, you want to get it in before it's too late. Yeah. Doing all the shopping right now. Looks like, because everybody has their Black Friday sales already going on. Yeah. Adafruit might have a sale too. I'm not sure if I'm. I think so. A lot of talk about it. But take a look at this weekend where we will have some holiday sales as well. But for more. Be tuned in for Ask Engineer later tonight. I think maybe we'll talk about it then. Yeah. That is also during the time that Raspberry Pi's will be restocked. So, definitely check in. Wednesdays, Wednesday nights are the time to get your Raspberry Pi live. Just watch the show. They'll let you know when they're going up. You can snag one up. Cool. Yep. DJ Devon says appreciates the heads up. That's right. Yeah. Christmas projects are definitely here. Yes. I'm excited to start on mine. So it's one of those. Yeah. It's a fun one. Fun one. Let's go ahead and jump into this week's project though. This week we have not a Stargate. Almost a Stargate. Yeah. One of these cases for the, oh my God. Look at my white balance go crazy. Oh wow. Yeah. The color temperature is dramatically changing in the background. It's like orange. Like the walls are changing colors. Right. Yeah. So we have a case for the four inch round. It's a TTL display. LCD TTL. Yeah. RGB TTL. TFT. All of the acronyms. This is amazing. So I'm like I need it. I don't know how to turn off the white balance. Auto white balance. This is a case for the qualia really. So we open up our scientific case. You can see on the inside. Oh, let me disconnect the USB. This is nice. It's very compact. Yeah. Super compact. Let me get a snap to it. So super compact. You got the snap fits on there of course. And then on the inside you have the little mount for the qualia board. And the way this works is it just sandwiches in between the case and the frame. So I can pop this guy out like so. You can see how this is all nicely mounted carefully. Oh, the little snaps here. Hold that in place. I'm just going to get over that. That's great. So it's not going to fall out. Yeah. Yeah. Can't fall out. Super clever with the stubs. Yeah. So it's pretty much sandwiched in these little extrusions here. Push. Yeah. The little lid there pushes up against this raised lid right here. So it's keeping it held down. So this doesn't flop out. And you can see here the actual, man, I'm getting fingerprints all over that guy. The challenge you think about this one is that the display isn't a true circle. It is this weird like oblong like ellipse. So I had to design the frame to match that. And as well as the case, the cut out is a circle. So that was easy there. And then the little frames or the channels on the side hold up against where the ribbon is connected in this little portion right here. I don't know what to call this. A lot of part there. So that just press fits in. So and then we're using this translucent filament. I just want to show off the translucent filament here. It's pretty good. This is from Zorro and Hatchbox. Oh, it came out pretty good for that. It's like made with the yellow. It's in translucent. Just trying to get that, what was it, that old school feel of it? Like the old electronics snaps them like that. And then I didn't add button cutouts for this, but you do have some GPIO. So you could add like a button on the outside of that. And then translucent just lets you align your USB ports. You can plug it in nice and simple like that. And have that guy load up like that. One of the cool things that we saw Phil post was like making a Stargate. You guys are working on a Mars clock. So planets, moons, clock type things is super cool for making that. I think the other thing was like a porthole like on a ship. I think is what one of the kids wanted. So like once we get GIF support, like have like the characters going by on there, how they do on some of the TVs. And yeah, this is so compact. You can have a battery inside the case here and have it. I don't know, like sort of roll around like I showed in the video. You can have it be like wearable. Definitely, you know, it's pretty big. So you could have like a nice sized, I don't know, something in the costume S score. I think the other thing too that I liked, once we get, you know, Phil beyond here to do some physics for it would be like the snow globe. Be perfect for that. So tons of really cool projects. You can do with the square display really like round display round round. It's coming up. It's coming up. Yeah. What I really like about it not being a square as faking a circle display, obviously, is you don't have, you know, to hide. Rectangular shape around it, which we have done before. Yeah. So it's really nice to have a real true round display. So round. Yeah. It's amazing. So the display itself is 720 by 720, which doesn't sound a lot these days, but it actually is a lot. It's an IPS display. So you got some really good viewing angles. The quality of board, of course, has the ESP 32 S3. So you can do Wi-Fi projects, IOT projects. Skip like one of the most coolest thing about it. Yeah. It's an ESP. Yeah. Yeah. Because we just got it and we're just like kind of figuring out what we can do with it. Yes. Internet connected things with the ESP 32 S3. Yeah. It's a nice display. Both Arduino and circuit Python support with circuit Python, Melissa, make Melissa, who's on the team. She just released or is working on a qualia display library. So it'll be an easier way to interface with it. We'll take a look at some demo code. But right now the demo code has this long array of bits and things for initializing the display. All that's going to get hidden away, abstracted away in this new library. So we'll be on the lookout for that. But right now you can do kind of basic stuff with circuit Python using the display IOT library. Just take a look at the product learn guides and you'll see all the all of the demo codes for at least displaying a couple, you know, lines of text and the repel and some bitmap images, which is what we have here. All right. So since this is mainly about the board, not really about the screens, we did have to make sure we had support for another screen on here. So this is the three by four inch square screen. And this one has touch. So this one has the touch overlay. You can see here the quick little demo here. You can just pick your color, do some little doodles on there. And I did notice if you go slower, you can have those be more not as you see how it's like dotty. Yeah. And have it be a little bit more connected. Oh, did I crash it? Do you need to restart? Well, I was going to say you have the reset button that you can press. Yeah. Does it clear the screen? Good point here. So for this one, for this one, I was able to cut out and have access to the buttons on here. So we have the flexible buttons here. They're the Ninja Flex TPU. So it's the, not the 85, the 95A. So Bowden printers should be able to print this. So it's not grippy. It's just flexible. And you can go in there and hit the restart button to clear that out. And then you have access to like two other buttons that are labeled as up and down. But it could like switch between different tasks or have it be an action button. And again, it's not the case. It opens up and you have access to any of the GPIO. You have your Stemma port right here, or two of them actually, right? One is a Stemma and the other one is like kind of a three pin connector. So you can do like analog. Yeah. You can connect a button or analog sensor, that sort of thing. The backlight control is editable on here. So you can see the little jumper pins here. So if you want to add like 25, 50 or 100 maybe amps to the backlight. So you can make this brighter. You do want to look at the datasheet. The board is already supplying I think 25 milliamps by default. So I didn't have to solder any for this one. I didn't even solder one for this one either just because I wanted the dim to match. So I don't have to do any crazy polarizing camera tricks to get the dim, the brightness to match when I was getting the shots. So you can do that if you needed to be even brighter. And same kind of deal with this one, the frame, because it's a sense of screwed in, comes out like that. And we just have again, another sandwiching thing. So the lid is actually holding it on. And it's just press fits into the area here. No supports for any of these cases. Since they do have like the 45 degree chamfer on. Oh, I just show that. There you go. The bottom part of that, the way I print. So you shouldn't need any supports for that. And yeah, it's not the case. Then the frame for that, just using the 2.5 mil by five millimeter long screws. And then it's not the case goes on just the lines like that. And again, this is the Zorro green element that is pretty transparent. That's really nice. I'm happy about that. And for this one, we're just running the sketch demo. So we go ahead and jump into the learning guide. One of the first things that you want to do when you get your board is install the bootloader. And a tip on that one is usually we have you go over to circuit python.org. But the installer for that one needs to be looked at. So what I'm doing is like Chrome tab. Oh, I have it in the notes. Let me see copy and paste that. We're actually go to use the web serial installer instead. Show that off. That is right here. This is my screen. Is that this one? Sorry, just sharing the screen here from tab. There it is. So guys, if you're familiar with this page, this lets you update your ESP32, since it doesn't have a native USB, you can't really interact with the bootloader like you usually do with having UF2s on there. So you are going to have to use this serial, but it's super easy. You have to use Chrome. And the first thing you're going to do is just erase the flash that's on there, reinstall it, and over on circuit python.org slash download. That's where you can get the bin file to actually flash it with. Let me share your screen. Yeah, I was going to say none of this stuff is on this Chrome browser. Oh, no. Yeah. All right. So the Adafruit USB tool, the online serial flasher for ESP boards. There you go. All right. So there's circuit python.org slash downloads. So look for a quality. And I tried using this installer here, but I kept getting hang up. So I wouldn't try it yet until we figured out that it's fixed, but you can download the bin here. And this is what you're going to use to flash the bootloader using the bootloader. And that should get circuit python on there. So you're able to mount it like a USB drive. And then you can continue on regularly, just drag it and dropping your .py files. So now it's all documented in the qualia learn guide, which I followed it. You did? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. I followed it that way here. Okay. Do a quick look under circuit python display set up. This walks you through the demo code, but you'll want to go into the factory reset. And then this walks you through going to the serial site. And there's some screenshots that were very helpful because I'm like, what do I do? You connect to it when you plug it in. It shows up as a comport. And then you'll add your bin file. You'll erase the contents and you'll flash it. And then you can install circuit python. This was, I think, my second time having to do a manual bootloader install of an ESP32-based board. So I'm familiar with it, so it wasn't too hard. But if you are new to it, just take your time and walk through the steps. And you should be able to get it. I think future boards will probably have the flash or the bootloader pre-installed. But this is such a new board that we're still working on. The process for getting a flash installed before we ship. Should be fixed by the next revision. Just wanted to mention it since... Oh, yeah. I didn't even know that there was a built-in installer in the CircuitPython.org website. I actually didn't notice that. I have the procedure of like, oh, go to the learn guide and then follow the installation. Yeah, and since I've done it so many times, I went straight to there but wanted to try out the built-in one. Yeah. Oh, this is so cool because it's right here, you know, but I still need some work. Yeah, I think, well, there's a couple of different plays that you can file a bug, but I think we'll just chat about it in tonight's meeting and be like, here's what we found. And it should be reproducible, so let us know. All right. Oh, Tyeeth reported it. Yeah, awesome. Oh, thank you, Tyeeth. Yeah, I don't know the report bug. Is there a button there? There was a button there, but... Yeah, it's around. You just got to look cool. All right. Go back over to your learn guide, I guess. Yes. So once you get your board set up and you get your demo code installed. Yeah, you know, you can continue. So yeah, just a general overview of the board, what it can do. And for now, we have three sizes. I was working on the bar, like the rectangle display. So that will just get rolled into an actual project, but I'll add that here. This is pretty much going to be like a repository for all of the case sizes, since there's so many. Real quick, are you on the same screen as I am? Whoop. Let's see. I'm looking at the circuitpad.org. Let me see. I'm going to move that, present again. Doing the share screen shuffle. Oh no. Got the share screen shuffle. I got to stop to share. So now we did like change it. All right, here we go. Overview page. Talks about the board. Shows you the currently supported printed cases for these. And then some of the ancillaries, like the USB cable and the battery that we're using for this. Okay. It's going to be repository. I'll continue to add more screen sizes here. Yep. Just the screws that we're going to need are the M25x5mm long. And that's to mount the quality display. For 3D printing, super simple. No supports needed. You can add STLs for this. I think it's just on Thingiverse for now. Can grab all those. Did you notice the analytics started working again? They like updated the UI. On Thingiverse? Yeah. It's nice. Your numbers are up there. And then, of course, you can also get the Fusion 360 files. So you can download a step file or whatnot for these two cases. It's, what is it? Right here, download. You can get steps or any other files you're working with, lgb, fbx. And here's that guy. Does this look like when it explodes? Woo. That's it. Cool. So I got that, the 3.4 square. You can download those. Nothing fancy but for the slice settings. Like I said, no. Pretty standard. Yeah, all standard. Super simple. The tolerances should be pretty good, since the snaps should hold it in place. And for the round, like we're saying before, mount it with the screws. You want to carefully flip it over to it, to its back. If it's mounted, I did take consideration on the length for the ribbon cable. So it shouldn't rip. It should be just enough to where it's not pulling on it and it's not pushing back on it. So it's not bending in any crazy radius. Very nice. So you will align the screen or the display into the channels in the case and then make sure to align the USB port to it. And the lid, line that guy as well. Line it to the USB port and the snap fits. Pretty much it just closes like that. Now use the transparent just so you can see the USB cable coming in and any LED warning flashes that you might be able to see. You can have all of that viewable. And then switch it over to the 3.4 square. Same stuff here. Just mount your frame, flips over to the back of it. Same consideration with the ribbon sizing. For the flexible buttons, we're using the TPE. So the Bowden extruder should be able to use that. TPU, I think. No, yeah, TPU, TPU. TPE is the more flexible one. Yeah, that's the stretchy stuff. So these fit over the buttons really. All you're doing is having these act as an extension. Yeah. So you insert into the case the display inserts first and then the frame right after that. Since the little snaps are going to get in the way for the frame only. So you are able to bend one side of the frame to have it go over the little point. Yeah, yeah, you flex it a bit instead. Yeah, just easily flex that guy. Goes right over. And once you get that over, you want to gently grab the board, the quality of board by the sides, just so you can align the buttons to the NinjaFlex buttons. So just want to test those out to make sure that they all actuate. And the lid just snaps on. And we're just using the drawer. Demo here. The kid's favorite. I should have added like little handles on the side. That'd be cool. Yeah, little handle. Nice. That's pretty much it. Super simple assembly for the case. Very cool. You get all the designs here for the Fusion 360 files and the Thingiverse files, STLs, all in the guide here. Alrighty. Cool. Yeah, I can see a lot of kind of remixes and mods and add-ons, especially for the round display. You can add like a custom stand so that it's like propped up at an angle or something. Add a screw, a tripod screw mount thing. That could be a fun add-on to it. We'll come up with more things too for it. Yeah, we're about to show the one that you got. Real quick, DJ Devin is asking about a 0.8 millimeter nozzle. Would that work for the snap fit? I would probably say no. As soon as you change the nozzle, your tolerances may differ and just enough to where the tolerances just won't fit. Could be enough to where the resolution might be so low that the snaps don't even print at all. Yeah, so I would try a test print first and go from there. But yeah, I think I've tried and it doesn't quite translate, depending on your size of your snap. Yeah, it might work if it's a big snap. Yeah, I think the snap is 1.5 millimeters, so yeah, you might get like two layers out of it. Yeah, that's a good question. I haven't done anything with a 0.8 nozzle in a while. I can't remember the last time I did a project, but it was probably something big where it didn't matter how big the, or how fine the resolution was. Man, but yeah, you can print pretty quick with a 0.8. Yeah, and we'll start with the subject of round displays. Noah's got a really cool round prototype. Round display prototype. Yeah, so let me see if I can pull this out. I'm going to be very careful with it. So we're working with this, the Earth slash Mars clock. This was a project idea from Lamar. And I'm working on a kind of retro space age analog clock case. So this is just one piece of it, or rather two pieces of it. But it's using geometries that Pedro came up with. And it's going to be a kind of a globe dome with a separate stand. And I'm using our FPC 40-pin extension with the same quality of board. But if you needed to make something where your board is away, this is a good project that showcases, hey, you can use a ribbon extension cable and our little FPC PCB board to make a project where they're separate from each other. Because you can see that the ribbon cable for this round display and most of the displays are really, really short. So this makes it so that you can extend it and have it away. But yeah, it's going to be this kind of snap fit together globey thing. And this is just a bitmap of a clock, but Liz is working on an interface with a Earth photo and a Mars photo. And we're going to have a button where you can press the button to change, to cycle between the different planets. And it is an ESP32 S3. So we're using Adafruit's time request, internet time. And I'm not sure if there's an API for the Mars, but there's some stuff going on there. So an internet clock, basically. All right, let me share my entire screen. We're going to go in tunnel vision for just a moment. No, this one. All right, in tunnel infusion 360, we have a 3D model of the qualia board that's on our GitHub repo. It has all the components on it. USB port, JST connectors, the 40 pin connector, and of course the ESP module and all the caps and things. So this is the design. It's reminiscent to those kind of 1970s designs. 1970s had these like, just a lot of manufacturers made these clocks where they're like these super dome with like a really nice curvy base. So I thought this would be perfect for our Mars slash Earth clock. On the back here, you can see we have the little 24 millimeter arcade button, which should be able to connect to the 3 pin port. So we'll be able to plug that into this thing here because you get a GPIO pin from there. And then on the base, you can see that we have access to the USB connector. And I think I'll probably do some TPU buttons too, like you did, Pedro. But for now, it's just like kind of exposed here. I will need some supports for this base because it's got some weird geometry. Let me do a cross section so you can see where the flat areas are going to be. I do have a snap fit dealies for the bottom cover, but you'll see here this flat edge. I'm going to need some support material for that. But the FPC cable should be able to fit through here. This hole here in the center of the kind of stem of the base. And then we'll have the kind of quick connects with a JST connector for the quality boards. We'll be able to modularly just plug those in, hopefully. And then I needed to create a retainer kind of holder for the display. So I have your same kind of thing, but I wanted to model the display as well. So I will be sharing this. I took the screenshot of the datasheet, and then I kind of drew it out with the spline tool. And that way you get the... You can kind of see how just weird it is. Of course, the display portion is a circle, but the bezel, like the casing of it is weird. I don't have the ribbon cable modeled up, but I didn't really need it for this case. I just kind of need that bezel, the metal piece and the display here. But it's fairly thin. It's a millimeter, and I think it's like 1.2 millimeters. But I did bring in a canvas, like a screenshot of the datasheet. So I was able to calibrate it to the right measurements, and it seemed to work out. So it was about the same geometry that you have set up. So that way folks can reuse that if they want. And then I'll share that on GitHub. A little bit later. But for now, that's kind of what I got going on. Yeah, for the bottom there, sorry, my mic was muted. I was trying to say, maybe move the snaps up to the top. Oh, so that this is flat, right? Yep. And then you won't need the supports on it. How would it snap to the frame? All right. Oh, maybe it shouldn't be a snap. Maybe it should be screws that go into that. Oh, from the bottom, from the bottom. Oh, I think... Because we have room, all that room for the standoffs to be down there. Okay. Yeah, we'll chat about it after show. But for now, that's what I came up with. And... Not too good. Even with the supports, you wouldn't even see it. So... Yeah, I thought it'd be nice. Yeah, we got this flat edge here for the button, obviously. And I think that there's a lot of room in there. Yeah. But it's for aesthetics, really. It's just kind of an aesthetic kind of thing. And I did do an export. So Fusion has the ability to export a USD file format, which is an AR thing. So I used the iPhone to open... Because it natively supports that file format. So I can see in my desk a rendered with tracking and everything and lighting. Oh, cool. And it's really cool. So it's going to be on my nightstand. So I actually set it on my nightstand. So I've kind of forgotten about that. But it's a good feature in Fusion that you can export an AR model and then actually preview it. I think a lot of the furniture people like IKEA and Target, they have the USD file format. And with the Vision Pro, the VR headset and other VR headsets, I think that file format is going to be the standard for AR stuff. So that's kind of cool. And it made sense here to see the scale and everything of it. Yeah. So that's what I got. Again, 3D models are on GitHub. I'll share the display a little bit later. But right now I have the quality of board at least. So you get the mounting holes and the button positions and stuff. I think you used it in your model, right? Like to make the case. Which part? The quality of board. I was like laughing up the comment here. Say that again. No, I was just saying if you use the Qualia model in your case. Oh, yes, yes, yes. Yeah. Yeah, so I got the mounts in there and the positioning and the buttons and everything. Okay. So that is the prototype. So far I got these two parts printed and I'm working on printing the back of the dome. And then thankfully I haven't printed the base yet because I might rework it based on what you said. Because it's not a bad idea. I think there is a way to chop it so that it's just like right there. And then figure out how to connect the framing of the base to that. Whether it's with screws or not. But I don't know. I'll see. Because I'm still like, well, how does that attach? Because it's going to be flat. I could chop it in half and then like print it. But then you'll make it just five millimeters thick so the screws go in. And it's. Oh, I see what you're saying. That might work. Maybe that can chant for upwards too. I think you're right. That might work actually. It'll be thick. But just the bottom. Yeah, I know, but supports aren't bad these days. Yeah, that too. That's how I was like, that's fine. And if you're doing a resin print, like of course you can use supports anyway. So cool. Or maybe a print upside down or maybe upside down. Yeah, but then it starts to curve outwards. So you'll need supports there. So I thought about that too. So it's one of those weird shapes where it's like you're going to need supports just for the aesthetics. So all right, but that is what we are prototyping. Yeah, more more round display stuff. And if you want the here, let me share my screen again. Here is the FPC connector. It's like 450. It only comes in one size, two millimeters long for the ribbon cable. But you can tend to kind of not fold it, but like kind of, you know, a little bit folding it. Just don't create a crease on it, right? You don't want to damage it. But it's very flexible. As you saw, I think in my video, you can kind of really fold it around. Very flex, very flexible. Yeah. So the last time we used this, you scroll down on a project. Oh, the last time I used it, I think it was like the Raspberry Pi 5 inch monitor. Yeah, the Super Game Pi. The KIPPA. Remember the KIPPA? Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Add a TTL to your Raspberry Pi. That's getting an update. You've been watching the Mars one minute videos. Yes. We're working on a new version of the Raspberry Pi. Video playback. It's coming. She's working on it. Yeah. That would be real nice. Okay. Hey, don't forget coupon code for various products. The Kualia. It's the coupon code. Pick up the board today. It looks like they are fully in stock. Oh, that's funny. Yeah. Squared.jpg. Definitely you could wear this around. We were actually joking about that. It's like a Flavor Flav. Wear what you want. Yeah. Just a note that there's no battery connector because Lamar didn't think it'd be good to have a charging circuit on there. But I guess you could get a really low-profile USB cable and just connect to a battery somehow. You know. I mean, it's a display. You don't really want a battery powered. Yeah. So unless you have a smaller display, that's not as power hungry. I don't know. Yeah. All right. What else? I don't have it here, but next one I'm doing is going to be for the bar, probably. Yeah, the bar display. A mini fireplace. A festive DIY U-log. It's not that mini, right? Yeah, no, it's medium-sized. Yeah. I think we have one that's not in stock yet. That's a little bit bigger. Did you want to wait for that one? Yeah, this is a 3.2 inch. I have the touch screen one. Yeah, the touch screen one. So it's this one. That one, yeah. And then we have this super long boy. Wait, did I get that? I don't think we have that one. I don't know if I got that one. Yeah, I don't think this would be a good fireplace one. This is a really long one. Maybe that's too long. And they're not in stock yet. Yeah. No, I got the smaller one. So this is what you do have. Yeah. The touch, capacitive touch display. It's got rounded corners. That's nice. Oh, but that's just the display. Not the actual screen. Screen is a square. Can you see the third picture? This is the other one with no touch screen overlay. And yeah, so the idea is you want to make a fireplace and then the screen will be in the fire area. So you have like a brick texture around it. And then you'll be able to adorn it with like little knickknacks and things. Tiny little, what are the Christmas stockings? Well, I thought it was going to be Bruce Willis inside. Oh, Bruce Willis inside the Vance from Die Hard. It's the best Christmas movie. But yeah, that's a cool idea for the bar display. Yeah, a nice chunky one. And you've probably seen, if you haven't already, there's a few models of fireplaces that are designed to hold like an Android phone. So that's kind of ripping, ripping. It's kind of riffing off that idea is to make a brick style fireplace. Yeah, we did one with the pie portal in a couple years ago. Yeah, that's right. I think it was the time of Tuesday. Yes, yes, it was. Yeah, cool. Lots of fun ideas with these displays. You want to pick up the displays? Good, but go ahead and call ya. Go ahead and step into this week's community makes. Yeah, do you want to add the video? Let's see, full screen. So yeah, this week's time-lapse Tuesdays, getting everybody ready for wrapping those gifts. Wrapping those gifts. One easy way to cut that wrapping paper with one of these. Of course, you can buy one of these. Yeah, we just print one. Yeah, so the ones that you buy, those are nice. I guess I was looking at some of them on Amazon and the reviews were kind of terrible. They're saying like, it doesn't work with thin paper. It doesn't work as advertised. But the difference with this one is that it uses a standard Exacto blade, the number 11 blade. And that is great. That makes a world of a difference because then you can swap out the blade. I think if you get one commercially, it's not, it has like its own blade, which can get dull over time. But this is, you know, we're swappable blade. And you can customize it with, you know, all sorts of names or icons, whatever. So this one's by MakerBose on Thingiverse, free download, and you can modify or design your own. It's a good idea. I saw an ad for one on Instagram or something. I was like, oh, I wonder if these are on, you know, the Thingiverse and hold and behold, whatever the term is, it is. So very nice. I like that these tweezers install the very sharp blade. So just press fits in, right? Yeah, it just goes right in. And it's big enough to fit an even bigger blade in there. So some of the, I know there's different sizes. I don't know what the number is, but it looks like the thicker one would be able to fit in there as well. And you could take it out, sharpen the blade and reuse it. I like how the Christmas tree is also an arrow pointing to where you're supposed to move it. Oh, I didn't notice that. Yeah, I just noticed that now. But yeah, yeah. If you already have one, good. If not, maybe there are blades being dull. You can always three different one and use a standard blade. So shout out to MakerBose for posting it up. On Thingiverse, it's a free download. There's different, what, sizes? Models. What was that other one? That dull one. Oh yeah, they're different. They're different diameters. So you can see here, there's a 70 millimeter diameter. Okay. There's one with the Christmas tree. I'm going right next to that. What is that one? Here's one. This is a double cutter. I guess it's just two of them. You could just put two of them on the slicer. Oh, the three of them. Yeah, there's just two of them. Okay. You could do that in your shirt. Yeah, that was a weird shape too. But no, there's just two of them that are intertwined so that you can print two next to each other and save some build space. Have them be Christmas presents themselves. There's some text here, the Xacto number 11 blade. That's your standard Xacto. It tapered, exit after the cutter to prevent snags, rounded edges to prevent snags, appropriate diameter for most rolls. And a little bit of info on printing settings, which is pretty standard stuff. There's a 70 millimeter diameter version for larger rolls as requested by a customer. PLA, standard PLA stuff. Yeah, PLA. Low infill, since it wanted to be kind of flexible. Oh, yeah. Just the rainbow color here. It's going from blue to green to match the colors. And yeah, he has a blank once you can punch out your own logo on there. Nice. Yeah, like a practical print, you know, and this one's a handy one. I always struggle with wrapping paper. I suggested wrapping paper that has the grid lines. That way you can get a nice, if you're using scissors. Yeah, very cool. Yeah. All right, that is the time of Tuesday. Practical and pretty simple. All right, continuing on what the community makes. Yep. We got some makes this week from folks. First up, we have a post of a Pi Girls Zero with a Raspberry Pi. It's from No Walk Mar. This is their post. It looks really nice. It's a handheld. One day. This will be revisited. Yeah, one day. I mean, it's pretty good now. It's still pretty good. You got your Pi Zero. Are they still $5? No. I forget how much they were. I think the Pico. Something used to be five bucks. Yeah. The Pico. Yeah, I guess you could use a Pico these days, right? Yeah, there's the emulator with the JP did a PCB for it. Oh. Yeah, I think it's HDMI though, so it wouldn't work. Yeah, I was going to say, I think that was for buttons. Yeah. But anyway, this one has the nice power boost charging circuit, beefy battery, custom PCBs for the buttons. Works out. People are still making it. Very nice. A little small screen. After that, we have a make of the Cosplay Prop. The Kingdom Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts. Christian posted theirs up. They said, love the model. It came out absolutely stunning. They fitted an M6 threaded rod down the whole length. With some custom made inserts to stabilize it. And it looks, it looks really nice. I like they, it's really big, by the way. I like that they printed the two halves of the key guard with those new tree supports. I hadn't seen anyone done do this yet, so that was nice to see. And mainly because they didn't fit on the bed. I designed this to fit like a 300 by 300 bed. And that's pretty much the size of my cruelty under V2. So if I ever wanted to reprint it, I would print it like this with tree supports. So that's cool. And they did their own modifications. They have these little inserts to strengthen the Keyblade. And they added that rod to give it that extra stability. So you can battle grade ready. Yeah. I think I've broken it quite a few times playing with Gavin. Mine, mine version. So this is nice. Everything's got threads. Just print the section out. Yeah. And you can make a shorter one by skipping the second, you know, one. So there's all the parts. It was a really fun, you know, prop to build. So check it out if you want to build one and you're a fan. Or gift one to somebody that might like it. Thanks Christian for posting that up. After that, we have a make of the Raspberry Pi Octoprint rig. It's basically a case for the Raspberry Pi. Three with the Adafruit 3.5 inch Pi TFT touch display. Using the Touch UI plugin for Octoprint. I think this is a Pi 3. Is it a Pi 3 or Pi 2? There's a learn guide that tells you what it is. It was a 3. It was a 3. Yeah. Which it's now old. Yeah. Not crazy to make. The Pi 3 is old. Did they discontinue? I think they discontinued. The Pi 3 used to be the best. Yeah. But in any manner, MakerWiz posted there's no comment on it, but it's just a nice red case and stand. So it's still pretty good. It's used to be one of the most popular makes back in the day. After that, we have a make of this noodle lamp. This was posted up by Cisilenka. Said the assembling was interesting and I ended up making a few mods. The center core is pretty cool. Thanks for sharing. It was much larger than I expected. Very nice photo of it. Like the colors really pop here. Let's see. Yeah. Very cool. I think there's like an internal core that's covering the wiring in the center because I didn't really make one to kind of mass the battery. Yeah. And photoed with a BB-8. I was going to say it's more, it feels like Dunkin Donuts, the colors. It feels like Dunkin Donuts. Oh yeah, it does. Love it. Up here in the north, we love our dunks. Yeah. It is a challenging assembly. It's one of those building a ship in a bottle where it's very intricate and for advanced makers. So that's just what it is. It's definitely, it's the fun challenging yeah project. Oh yeah, we did the thing on it. Yeah, it was fun. Sploots. After that, we have a make a remix of the tombstone with the Halloween eyes. This was posted up by David and David says they modified it. They really liked the original model, but they wanted to make their own laser engraved wooden inserts. So they kind of printed half of it and then like added their own laser thing. So it's just a nice thing. I don't think it has any electronics, but it's a fun model where you just print it in pieces and screw it together. I think it's not fits in certain areas, so you can add some all fun details to it. I really like the texture here of the kind of crackling stones, the cobblestones. Very nice in this marble. Wait, they added them? What's that? They added the cracks? I think so. I don't have cracks in mine. Oh no, I do. But they're different for sure because I actually still have mine out. Can you see my screen? Yep, I see it. Yeah, see mine are... You have a vinyl? Yeah. Yeah, they're different for sure. Yeah, they're different. I'm looking at it and I'm like, yeah, there's more detail up here. So they created their own insert. So very cool. And yeah, you can scale this up too, make it bigger or smaller. And it's a good project to mix different things. So I mixed the creakut vinyl cutter to do the masking, but you can use a laser cutter if you have one. And engrave your own details. So that's cool. Shout out to David for posting that up. Very cool. And then we have a make from Squid.jpeg. They posted up a playground post of their remixed or modified Hal 9000. And they have a really nice blog post about updating the case, of course, to kind of be flush, so they can mount it on this. I think it's an Ikea pegboard, the sketch. And they added a Qtpie ESP32S2 over UART so they can communicate messages over MQTT. So they have a really nice blog post and they have a couple of features where it'll tell you when it's connected or when it's disconnected and it can shuffle through different audio files, which is really cool. So shout out to Squid.jpeg. And they also posted up the files. So if you do want a flush mountable Hal 9000, you can use Squid.jpeg's files. They're on printables, which is right here. So you can see here that they extended it. It's going to take a little bit longer to print, but that's totally fine. And they also have an audio jack that communicates over UART, I believe. And there's the Qtpie up there. Very, very cool modification. Yeah, this is exactly what I wanted to see. Like an IoT connected Hal 9000. It's pretty cool. Yeah, what's cool is that it showcases that you can combine different dev boards together so you can have the prop maker feather handling, you know, the audio, the nice I2S amplifier, and then the Qtpie is like the co-processor to do the Wi-Fi stuff. So really good marriage of the two. Super cool. After that, we have another make of the very practical heat set insert rig. Helps you create very nice heat set inserts to your 3D printed parts. This was posted up by Methlon. Methlon posted up their make. So it works really well. Thanks. Looks really nice. They created, as most people do, that make this a customize it or print mods, like for example, using a standard ball bearing. This is like the ZZ608 ball bearing and your custom holder for the soldering iron. And they even have like a nice wire, what would you call it, like a wire harness, I guess. So it keeps it out of the way of the soldering iron and a custom base as well. So all really good. Yeah. I'm really liking this. This has become its own like community of like people that print this thing. Yeah. Very cool. So thanks for sharing that. Methlon on printables. All right. We have two more to go. The Raspberry Pi stand. Jaha posted up Raspberry Pi Zero stand, which is a really nice, simple, no support. Really, really simple 3D printed stand for the Raspberry Pi Zero. Very nice. It also, you can have a screen on it if you want or a different, what do you call it, Bonnet? I think we call it a Bonnet. Mm-hmm. Yeah, lots of makes on this one. Really, it was simple. Notting holes are a pretty standard on these Pi Zeros. And then the last one is this really awesome make by three-handed. They said I added the pineapple from Stormtrooper Guy on Thingiverse. I love the design. The best part is I can unscrew it and easily store it in the same box as the rest of the costume. Very cool. And they're super awesome cosplay here of a Tuscan raider from, of course, Star Wars. They went all out. They went all out. The bottom here is, I guess it referred to us, the pineapple, which I wasn't aware of. That was an acorn. Yeah, I think it was an acorn, pineapple, whatever the community wants to call it. Fair game. Very elaborate, you know, mask and everything. Oh, yeah, the whole thing. It's super cool. And I really liked the prop when I first saw it on the book of Boba Fett, or as we like to call it, Mandalorian Season 2.5. I don't know what it was. But it's super cool to see folks go all out. Look at my costume. I think the mask that we have on our mannequin, it got here like the day after we were done shooting. That's right. Yeah, but it's super cool. Of course, three printed coils, no supports. Quite a few makes now. So it's nice to see folks going all out. This is the most elaborate cosplay costume with the prop. So super cool. And that is this week's community mix. Maybe one day we'll see them roaming in the galaxy's edge. Oh, that'd be fun. All right, it's Tusken Raider at Galaxy's Edge. Right. That'd be cool. And then they can sell you like, they can like sell you like, I don't know, your saber. You can only get them from these Tusken Raiders. I don't think they sell you. You see like an R2D2 go by. Swipes and goes behind stage. Yeah, I really hope those droids, the BD1 droids, come to the Hollywood studios. Is it? Yeah, it is Hollywood studios down in Florida. That'd be super cool. I would fly down just to see them. That'd be great. All right, folks. One last minute, cool community make. Oh, what you got? Devon posted this really cool LED strip for your wall. Oh, wow. Yeah, this is nice. What is that? Oh, very simple. Very clean. Nice. It's a good way to kind of mount your, your, what kind of LED is it? Is it the neon? Ah, okay. It's a neon. Very nice. Very standard. Wall mount, U-channel. Very nice. You know, post that up. Cool. Yeah, it's a good example of showing how you can, you can create a custom mount for your LED strip. And that is a community makes. Very nice. Got, got, well, the last one sneaked in there. All right. I'll say it again. coupon code is qualia this week. We'll have another coupon code later tonight on ask an engineer. And then we're going to have show and tell hosted by John Park. I'll be on. I'm going to share about this because I actually forgot to mention it and we're out of time. This is the resin print. I talked it out. You can't tell the difference from it. Yeah, I know. But now you can end off is amazing. Three printed resin from PCB way using the translucent or transparent spray varnish resin. A little pricey, but you know, it's cheaper than me buying a printer and going to get a curing bath and all the UV things. But anywho, I'll share that tonight on show and tell back to back shows tonight. Show and tell starts at 7 30 p.m. Eastern time. We invite you to come on. You can get an invite invite link through Adafruit's discord live chat channel. And then ask an engineer starts at 8 p.m. Eastern time open source hardware news, new products, top secret and live. Don't forget. I'm fine. Yes. And get your pie five drops right when they say it drops. Yeah, we are. We're working on the case. Yeah. I was going to the fireplace idea you had and was like, I'm going to do that instead. Yeah, that's a fun one. Yep. And then there's a 3D model of the pie five available on grab cad. I will be using that. Oh, yeah, my center made one too. So that's great. They're coming out. Good. I'm glad I don't have to painstakingly make models. Oh, I was waiting for the fan, the cooling fan. One from Digikey. Digikey. I haven't heard yet. Oh, really? Last week. I hope it's not lost. Oh, no. They're usually pretty fast. They're usually pretty fast. That's why I'm surprised. I'm worried now. Oh, no. I hope one of us a backwater. We've heard the horror stories of backwaters, remember? For a fan? Well, yeah, all the pie things are. I thought it was just a standard. I think they make it themselves, right? Or something. No, not at pie. Just the fan. Well, maybe shop around or check your status. Yeah. All right. Well, we're closing the show. Tomorrow is JP's, no, not probably the week. JP's workshop. Tune in at the JP time. I think it's 4 p.m. Eastern to 3 p.m. Pacific. And then Friday is, I think, a deep dive with Fome Guy. Every Friday at 2 p.m. Pacific, 5 p.m. Eastern. Sorry. And drop that too soon. And then on Sundays is a Desk of Lady Aida show, live stream at random hacker hours in the evening of Sundays. And then Mondays is the Circuit Python weekly. Tuesdays is JP's product pick of the week. Check out what crazy discounts are on on Tuesdays, 4 p.m. Eastern. And then round it back over to Wednesdays, not Thursdays, Wednesdays. All right. I think that does it for the show. Thanks, everybody, for tuning in live for a little bit over. But don't forget, we got a coupon code. And we'll have another one tonight. Thank you, everybody, so much for watching. We'll see you tonight on Show & Tell. But until then, remember to make a great day. Bye, folks. See you, everybody.
