 Good morning everybody. I'm Pedro Escarrita, Tech Curator, and every week we're here to share 3D-printed projects featuring electronics from Adafruit. That is right. This is where we combine 3D printing and DIY electronics to make inspirational projects for you lovely folks. Hello everybody, welcome to the show. If you'd like to join us during the live show, you can throw up some gifs, gifs, comments, memes, all the fun stuff on the Discord chat room. The invite code for that, the URL for that is discord.gg-adafruit. Tomato-tomato. What's the matter? Good morning, good evening, good afternoon, good night to everybody hanging out all over the world. Good morning, Connor, Mick, Carter, Andy, Callaway, Ross, and all hanging out in the chat rooms. We have a fun show for you folks planned. We're going to run through some of the housekeeping stuff as we do in the mornings. If you have any shout-outs to stuff, we'll come back to the chat room. But for now, we'll get the show started. Let me go to Adafruit.com slash free and find out what are the latest deals this week. Similar to last week, for orders, if you spend $99 or more at Adafruit, at the checkout, you'll get a free half-size permaporto. That's that lovely PCB with a three-colored soap screen and it's through whole plating. For orders that $149 or more, you'll get the half-size permaporto plus an Adafruit KB2040. That's that keyboard driver for those keyboard projects. And for orders that are $200 or more, you'll get the keyboard, you'll get the half-size permaporto, and you'll get free ground shipping from UPS for continental US only. All of this stuff gets added automatically to your cart so you don't have to do any special background codes or anything. So that's the deals. You can head over to Adafruit.com slash free for all the deeds. Next up, I'm going to switch it to the jobs board jobs that Adafruit.com. You can find out the latest job listings and resumes from fellow makers out there. This week, we have a few job postings. I'm seeing a new one here, a firmware programmer for the RP2040 PCB in the Miami Florida area as a freelance position. We got another one here, a programmer for USB ESP32, BitBang Gaming LLC in remote contracts. So check those out. It's free to post your job listing or free to post your resume with your skills.

And coming on over to this week's project. Check it out. What are we doing this week? Oh wait, let's go back to the chat room. I see you're looking at stuff. We have some droids saying Roger Roger. Thanks, Yanni. I got DeWester who's got some parts to upgrade his Ender 3D Pro doing the dual Z and direct drive update. Those are always fun to do. It feels very accomplished when you get that first print out and looks excellent. Yeah. Yeah, I don't think that shows up in the thing, right? Which part? All that. No, it's just to get rid of it. Yeah, it's annoying. Well, cool. Very, very cool. Thanks for that update, DeWester. I hope everything goes well with that. All right, let's go ahead and jump into this week's awesome project. This week's project features the Adafruit Py Portal. Do you remember the Py Portal? It's that lovely IoT display screen. It uses the M4 and the ESP32 Wi-Fi co-processor. We thought it'd be fun to make a little mirror, a little smart mirror out of the Py Portal. We got ourselves a piece of acrylic and we have some of that mirror film and we slapped together to make this cool effect. So this mirrored acrylic is kind of a one way mirror where you can see the display but you can still see the reflections. I kind of got inspired by the one of the thermostat, the Nest thermostat has that same type of effect. And I was like, well, it'd be cool to do that with one of the Adafruit IoT boards. And the best one I thought to do that was with the Py Portal, the original Py Portal. So I designed myself a little case and we cut the piece of acrylic and then shout out to Liz Clark for helping us make this more interactive. So we wanted to have the display auto shot off after a few seconds and then using the onboard ambient light sensor when I put my hand in front of it, sort of a Jedi mind trick, it turns the screen on. So that's a fun way to kind of get a little interactivity in your IoT projects. This is using the wet open weather maps API to pull some weather data. We also got the time there. This is our local city here, Orlando. And the conditions here is a clear sky with a balmy 84 degrees Fahrenheit. So I got these, this little stand here that allows you to articulate the viewing angle. So you can put it wherever you want. It's a mini smart mirror. So if you've seen some of the other smart mirror projects, they're kind of big. We thought it'd be fun to make a small one, the Py Portal. And one of the design challenges was making this pumpkin opening for the ambient light sensor to allow more light to come in. Whenever I've done a case for the Adafruit Py Portal, I normally just make a hole and then I extrude the hole down. But what happens is that it stays dark. So I figured let me just add some drafted angles so that light can come in at different angles. And you can kind of see how the shadow is affecting how the shadows are kind of being fed in there and allowing the drafted angles allow the light to kind of come in there a little bit more. So I want as much exposure to this light sensor as possible. So that's why we have this very funky opening there. So that was a fun design challenge. Some of the features of the case, we have a nice opening here for the SD card micro USB. And then on the back cover snap fit cover, we have our lovely button, presser for the reset button. So if you want to reset, go into bootloader mode, put some Arduino in there or something. It's easy to do that, you don't have to take it out of the case. Yeah. So it's just booting up right now. This is all done in circuit Python, like I said earlier. And then these thumb screws or M3 thumb screws, they're really great for tightening up the angle. I really like these one day will stop them. But for now, I have a link to the Amazon store. So you can get yourself some of these very nice knurled three thumb screws. Yeah, so there is the stuff here for PyPortal, open weather maps API, get some interactivity there with the ambient light sensor. You can change in the code how long you want the display to turn on. Yeah, so let's go ahead and look at the learn guide and we'll kind of walk through it. I can get there. We go. So if you head on over to learn.edu for the calm, you can see that it's a part of the new guides, we could publish it this morning. The intro page to show you a couple things, of course, that the PyPortal and the cable. So we also have the hardware here. The screws, the thumb screws, lock nuts, and a sheet of acrylic, and a roll of film. So the idea is that you would get your acrylic piece cut from a laser cutting service such as Pinoco, and then you can apply a mirrored film to that piece of acrylic or any piece of acrylic. So that's kind of how we have it set up there. We have the CAD files available to download. You can check it out. We've got a nice little CAD animation that shows assembly, all the screws, just three parts for the case. You got the stand, you got the case, and you got the cover. And those all print without any support material. They snap fit together. The stand uses those M3 thumb screws in the M3 lock nuts to secure the stand to the case. Simple, right? You'll need a build, you'll need a 3D printer with a build volume of at least 122 by 122 by 132 millimeters. So you can print that out, or you can get it printed from a printing service. I have a DXF or SVG file for the acrylic template for that shape. It's kind of a specific shape. It's sized specifically to the enclosure. So you can either cut this out by hand, you can use a laser cutter if you have access to one, a CNC mill, or a laser cutting surface like Pinoco, download that. And then of course, if you would like to use any of the 3D models such as the PyPortal, those are free to download from our GitHub repo. I have a link to that there, because I have some spinny gifts of the PyPortal. Alright, next page is a mirrored page from all the Learn Guide for the PyPortal. So installing Circa Python on your PyPortal is all broken down here, step by step, a bunch of links, and some screenshots so you can get into bootloader mode and install the latest version of Circa Python. Pretty straightforward. On to the coding page, shout out to Liz for putting this together and figuring this out. You can use the download project bundle to get all of the libraries that are associated with this project. So you don't have to hunt them down. There's a code breakdown of how everything's working. So if you want to change anything, you can do that. There's some screenshots here that shows you all the assets that you'll need, because this is the weather, sort of weather station project. There's a bit, there's a few bitmaps that you have to get for all the different weather conditions. So this is just a nice visual of knowing, okay, this is what I need in my Circa Python USB drive. Of course, this has the secrets file. That's where you're going to put your Wi Fi credentials and things like your Adafruit IO username and pass key. Also your weather token here, not to get yourself a token from OpenWeatherMaps. You can do that head over to weather, openweathermaps.org, getting your API key. And there's a breakdown here of how it's pulling from the location. So you want to update this to your location. There's a list somewhere that you can look at in the OpenWeatherMaps API to find out what location matches your location. So there's that. This version of the OpenWeatherMaps project makes the display portrait mode. So that's, that's pretty neat. So haven't done that yet. Had a weather display with portrait mode. So it's kind of neat. Setting up the light sensor. So you can up with the get voltage helper. So you can scale it from zero to 3.3 volts. And then it breaks down the loop how it's getting local time and displaying the graphics, reading the light sensor. To make this work in different lighting conditions, it's calculating the maximum percentage of what the light value is. And then it scales it down so that when it sees that there's a change, a substantial change, it will turn the display on. And you can change up the sort of time that it stays on. After 10 seconds, the by portals backlight is turned off. Every 30 seconds, the clock is updated with the update time. So check that out. If you want to do this similar type of hand waving in front of the light sensor for your project, it's a good kind of base jump off point. All done in CircuitPython. Next up, we have a breakdown of setting up your piece of acrylic with some mirrored film. It's a bit of a process, not too complicated, though. I recommend getting some gloves because it's going to be a little bit wet. The idea is to get a spray bottle with a little bit of soapy water and kind of dousing the film. And then just smacking the two together, you want to have the acrylic also have some soapy water, you apply the film and then you want to use a squeegee to knock out any air bubbles and then kind of rinse or repeat. These are actually the same process from our Infinity Coaster, Infinity Mirror Coaster project. It's kind of just a repeat of that. But it's pretty much the same process, just a different shape. So that was helpful. On to the case assembly, pretty straightforward. We attach the stand to the case with some thumb screws and M3 thumb screws and some lock nuts. I really like adding like recesses for hex nuts, because then that helps you install the thing. It's not turning when you're right, or you don't need like a piece of like a needle nose pliers to hold the. So it's really nice to use the hexagon like recess so that way you can press fit your hex nut and it stays in place when you when you fasten on the other side. So that's a nice little tip there. Before installing the piece of acrylic into the case, I recommend wiping it clean because boy does smudges go everywhere on acrylic. So there's a little bit of a recess built into the case that has a little bit of a lip so that they can't be pressed all the way out. And then this display from the pipe portal keeps it from being pressed all the way in. There are some built in standoffs that will be secured that that the pipe portal will rest on and be secured with some more M3 screws. But once you have the acrylic installed, you'll want to probably wipe it down again because there's no way to not get smudges on it. Maybe you could wear gloves. Maybe I could do that. And sort of a little thing I realized is once I put the pipe portal inside, I can see the light leaking from the top of the display. That's just the way the display is. So what I ended up doing was grabbing a piece of gaffer's tape, or you could use electrical tape. I like gaffer's tape because it doesn't leave any residue, any adhesive residue. So I wrapped that over the top edge of the pipe portal covering those stem of ports, and then kind of wrapping around on the other side that way the light is not leaking. And the effect of the mirror stays nice and kind of magical. But once you have that installed, you can place the pipe portal over into the enclosure and line up the mounting tabs with the mounting holes, and then insert and fasten four of M3 by six millimeter screws into the tabs of the pipe portal. So that gets secured directly to the case. And then installing the back cover, just line it up with the shape. It's really easy to do so. And there are snaps on all the edges there. And just line it up and firmly press fit it together. Last thing you want to do is give it some USB power, or using your computers USB hub or five volt power supply, or battery bank if you want to use a battery bank, I have plugged into my computer because it's a desktop thing. And that's really it's a pretty simple case if you want to if you got yourself a pipe portal and you're looking for a nice house for it maybe this could be a fun option. magical mirror, magical mirror on the wall. Maybe you can add some sound effects. There's a built in buzzard. You can add a light or something if you'd like. There's empty space up here. Maybe if you wanted to add like a seven segment display or something to have some extra stuff there you can do all sorts of stuff. So let me go ahead and maybe open it just to get an idea. The way I open it is I just kind of press it like this. And just pops out. You can see here that the back cover has a little peg here. And that's what allows you to press that reset button. I really like the reset button on the pipe portal. This is a nice big one. We got an onboard NeoPixel as well. If you wanted to add something to the case here, we could do that. Here is the onboard speaker but you also have a speaker port. So don't forget that. So if you want to add some some alarms or something like that to your clock, you can add an extra speaker and there's an amplifier built into this. So it is fully featured folks. We want to log some data. We got that expansion port here for an SD card as well. There's so much stuff on here. This is a built-in temperature sensor. And of course you have all these ports here. Of course I haven't covered up but you could find a way to use those if you'd like. Gavir's tape. The ports are the Stemma, the, oh boy. JST. There you go. Yeah, three of them. They're the bigger Stemma just so you know. But we have cables that convert them over. Yeah. So you have two digital pins and then a Stemma, an I-squared C port. And those are for adding additional sensors as well. Yeah. And then the best part about this project is the Pi portal is in stock. Yes it is. It is indeed in stock. Here you kind of see how like if you don't have a kind of a covering for the back you can just see right through the mirror, through the acrylic rather. So that's all that effect is achieved by just completely darkening it out. But yeah, I've only seen this sort of effect done on like I said earlier in the show. The Nest thermostat has a similar type of effect where it's a mirror and it shuts off after a few seconds. Pretty cool effect. I hope to see more displays that are also mirrors. Nose hairs. Got a shout out for using the open weather maps. Yeah. And then Yanni saying that Azure has some maps that can use the weather maps in the background. That's a good idea. Just to make sure stuff with weather. And then Yanni is wishing that the screens came in those types of shapes. It's a really good way to actually give the illusion. Yeah, reshaping the thing. The screen. Sorry. Maybe you can make a bigger one. You know, it'd be fun. I think the other idea you had too was doing that circle display that made the rounds on the internet. It's a little terminal with the circle display. Yeah, that'd be a fun one too. I wanted to keep it like portrait mode for this project so that's why I kind of said like yeah let me forego the circle idea and that kind of looks like this you know traditional kind of mirror, portrait mirror. And I'm using for the filament this is the marble PLA. What a great filament that has this lovely texture, this speckle and all this prints out with it without any supports. That's really cool too. I really like this marble filament. And weirdly enough I got lucky here. You notice that the outline is white? I switched the filament. Or the filament ran out as it made the outlines. So I got this neat effect where you have this stroke. Very cool. Yeah, this white stroke. That's how I accidental mistake there but it looks cool. I'm starting to see some some of my I don't know. I think it's the texture from that. Is it the squeegee? Looks like I had like a maybe that fabric texture on there. Yeah, you could always try it again. There are some mirrored acrylic that you can purchase. It's kind of pricey though. It's like triple it's not quadruple the price of the regular sheet of acrylic. So it's up to y'all if you want to do that or not. Then that depends if you want to cut the acrylic yourself or if you want to get it cut from a service like Pinocchio. I don't know if Pinocchio offers the mirrored acrylic yet. Maybe they do. But that's that. Awesome. We got a smart mirror with the pine portal. And the pine portals in stock. I don't think I'm sure. And the Callaway says a happy little accident. It was. The voice of Bob Ross. It was a happy accident. All right, cool. And that's this week's project. Yeah, it's a pine portal case. Looks like a droid. Let's go jump into this week's what are we prototyping and we do have sort of a droid. Sort of a droid? It's absolutely a droid. In the making. We showed this off last week. This is that super cute Lola 59. Lola 59 from the Kenobi Star Wars Disney Plus series. Oh crap. I forgot. Today is the last episode, huh? Today is the final episode. I saw people posting that it was good. I hope so. Let's see if it happens to Lola here. So we showed it off last week. I was getting all of the parts ready for having all the components installed. Took a wrong turn in how this is assembled. I should not have used threading. It works for the most part. So three pieces. I'm going to switch to using snap fit instead of doing the threading on this. So in the bottom we'll have the feather. We're going to do the RP2040. I have a battery inside there too. This will not thread. It will snap. Threads for now. It's good to see that it actually works if you wanted to do something like this. The reason I am foregoing the threading is because of the alignment. Need to have this aligned with the horn. Yeah, to have this go up and down. Last week we were talking about how it was going to get the little wings to actually articulate and the way that the hinges are working. It's just a little piece of paperclip inside here that's holding that in. And that is how I'm able to keep everything nice and small. So I don't have these honking giant hinges. And yeah, that works pretty good. So I'm able to get not close to 90 degrees for the rotation like you see. But pretty close. That's pretty good. Maybe 70 or 80. Yeah, something like that. Pretty close. 10 degrees away. What it feels like. So we'll have probably standard LEDs inside the eyes. Maybe the RGB ones. But probably a neopixel. Or I don't know. Tighten on the code. Because we're going to use the existing code from that TerraCo project. Which was the... For friends, I think that'll work. And then we'll see if that makes sense to add a neopixel or not. Yeah. So I didn't grab any of the servos. But those all mount side by side right here. And then we have a nice little hole in here that leads down into batteries and the RP2040. And you can see why I like... Do you have an idea for an on-off switch? The on-off switch, yeah. It's probably going to be right here. Or maybe down there. Yeah, I'm thinking of putting it back there. I'm putting it back. But I was thinking, you know, the sense this does give you access to the inside of it. Maybe have it down there. But maybe once it's closed, yeah. You don't want to force the servo, you know, to strip the gears on it. So yeah, probably back here. Far as detail, I think just the antennas. The only thing that's left for that. And then obviously printing it in the correct colors. It's like white and red. So we'll get that. Probably do like the filament switching on this. Okay. Some sort of shoulder mount. Yeah. So for the Turrico, the way we did that was having magnets on the bottom and then like the magnetic plate that it attaches. Where is he? Oh, yeah, yeah. You also probably want a hole for the micro USB as well. You see, I just... Oh, yeah. That's down there. If you have a hole somewhere around the... Oh, all that. Yeah, it's... Is there going to have a feather too? Or is it something else? Oh, I don't recall. Let's get his snap fit in there. He is a... Looks like it's an itsy-bitsy. Okay. With the battery thing. So here's the magnet that we're using that allows you to attach to your shoulder. And then the snap fit parts right here. Like that. I'm pretty sure the battery is dead. Oh, there's the switch. Yeah, the switch is there. So I think I just popped it out of the way. Ah, no, you got it. There it is. So simple, simple movement like that will be translated for the wings. So that's not a neopixel, right? It's just... I'm pretty sure it is. It is a neopixel? Yeah. It's going red to blue. Oh, well, then if we're doing the... Producing the codes in there. Nope. Should... Yeah, I mean, that's what I size the eyes too. So should be pretty similar to this. Getting some painting on there. Do some weathering. And yeah, having nice other little Star Wars flying. Not flying, but you know, nice little robot droid. Cute. And that'll be... I'll try to get it for next week. But if not, probably the week after. Yeah. Super close. Good, good. And that is what we're prototyping. Super cute little Lola 59. Me, me, me. All right, cool. I think you had one shop talker. I guess so. Oh, we got some Legos. I got some Lego bits. Can't have a show without. Yeah. So this is the adhesive patch. All right. So we're in shop talk now. Let me just... We're shop talking. I got this thing for shop. So these Lego dots is a thing. And then the adhesive patch is a new type of Lego plate. And you might wonder, well, why is this interesting? It's interesting because it has a built-in 3M adhesive backing. And last week, I used a Lego plate as a holding jig for CNC milling, my own custom Lego bricks. So what's cool about this is I can now use this as a jig for CNC milling. It already has the sticker backing. And they redesigned the plate so that it has way more surface area. So this is a different type of plate, guys. This is a different thing. So for CNC milling, and it's a small kind of plate, it's an 8x8 stud plate. So I can fit one, two, three, four, five, six of the bricks in this arrangement. So that's really cool. And I thought I'd share it with you, folks. I haven't peeled this backing off yet. I don't peel it yet. But I'm sure it stays nice and stuck. But you can add your own. I'd probably take this off and add my own because I don't know what the thickness is exactly for this. But I can always measure it too. But yeah, I thought that was kind of neat. And Lego dots are always fun. I think it's neat is that they are able to keep coming out with new stuff. That is the exact same type of design, but reimagined in a different way. And it's kind of cheap. It's only like six bucks. You can get these from wherever Legos are sold. And that's the first bit. The second bit is they also did a stitch on patch that I thought was neat. So instead of an adhesive patch, why don't we make it so that folks that can sew, can sew it onto garments, wearables, what have you. And the interesting is that this is a flexible material, but it's multi-material because the studs are hard plastic. They're ABS, I believe. And this stuff is like a TPU, TPE type of material. And if you look closely here, you can start to see where the multi-materials are fused together. I couldn't see that in the kitchen lighting, but here with the sun, you can definitely see where it changes. It feels very nice and soft. And then these have a really good collect. Do you have any of our minifigs that we can... You were really impressed by the tolerances on these studs. They're like super nice. Yeah, you can like here when you take the... Oh, that's how it came off. Yeah, you can hear like when you take the minifigs out of the studs. Have a nice thunk. The camera, yeah. Thunk. But they hold on really well. Hats, shirts, see I'm putting it on like back of phones. Like anything you could sew stuff on to. There's my wooden, a cherry wood brick. Let's see if that fits. It'd be really embarrassing if it didn't, but it does. And of course you can pop that out and put that in. Ah, that's a good satisfying thing. Because you know that it is attached on there. The only other special design features, of course, the stitching holes. So there's much more spacing, margin, padding, CSS, padding, margin on the sides here for those holes. And those holes are like about maybe two or three millimeters. So maybe you could sew this with some yarn. I think they show yarn here in the picture. But yeah, kind of neat, right? Same price deal, but they're all about like the Lego dots for this one. Yeah, because it's sort of guaranteed that it's not going to fall off because of how small they are. Maybe this could go on a hat that we kind of need. Yep, put on the hat. We're probably going to three different our own and see if we can swap the filament to the PLA here and then this will be a TPU. But yeah, kind of interesting new Lego base plates for some DIY projects maybe, huh? Yeah, again, super impressed that again, that they're able to continue to make new designs using the same studs, new little products out of that. Different materials. Cute. So the reason why you want to make your own is because this is the only color and shape that you can get at this time. It'd be cool to make a native fruit logo. Yeah, so imagine having this being like flexible and you could just sew that on from there. It'd be super cool. Probably screw something like with an M1 screw or M2. Any comments? Any questions enough? See the like of the flexible material. Yeah, neat, right? It's called the Stitch-On Patch. I hope to see more of these in different shapes and in different colors because right now I think this is the only one you can get in this assortment with this very particular set of dots. Cool colors though. I like the colored dots and make your own. I'm like trying not to be a shill for Lego but... Yeah, they got good stuff. I see and see milled my own. Got a couple of questions that I missed over here on the YouTube from McCarter asking about the light sensor trick from the Pi Portal. Good light sensor trick from the Pi Portal. Can you use it as an on and off switch? Probably not to completely shut off power. I don't think there's any special, what do we call it? Deep sleep mode stuff. Maybe you could do some deep sleep stuff but I'm not familiar with it. But that might be an option. Yeah, for now I'd work around and just have to go to sleep. It turns the... And it does save power. I left this on one of these battery banks overnight and it wasn't dead because it shut the display off. So that's kind of cool. But yeah, that'd be neat. And then comment on, you could use some bookmakers twine for a super strong connection. Guessing for the Lego patch. He thinks it is awesome. Cool work. I don't know. I completely missed that. I remember seeing an ad about it too. Or not an ad but like I'm always looking at the Instagram Lego stuff and... I did not see that. So someone in either France, someone in Europe was like posting... Oh god, oh these are new, new stitch on adhesive. So I was like, whoa, cool. So it was nice to see those at the Lego land store. All right, cool. All right, well that was... And let's shot some... That's good questions. And interactions. Move on to, what are we prototyping? No, no, no. Community makes. Community makes every Tuesday. We find something to 3D print and do a time lapse. Let me pull up the video and the Thingiverse page. This is the design by Naderata. Naderata, aha, one Thingiverse. And it is a little UFO fidget spinner. Definitely caught my eye on just it, the assembly of it, the multi-material parts of it, and then having that extra little... What is it? The teleport beam, transport beam, tractor beam, I thought was super cool. Okay, so these are little diffuser bits that are printed in some translucent PLA. And then you can snap these... Oh, they snap fit. Yep, snap fit, so I can take it apart. The bearing is the... What is it? 20, no, 50. The ZZ608. There you go, Z608 bearing. So standard bearings, you should have these. That looks great. A lovely glitter filament in the spinny spin, so fidgety. So I did try the trick that you were saying. Oh, it didn't work? Use the... Not as well. I mean, it definitely works better than when it had just the... Whatever grease that makes it spin. Yeah, the thick grease. So I use the alcohol to try to get that out and then use the real butter. And yeah, here's what it looks like. That is what these are for. So you can insert little balls, which I think we have. Ah, the little bearings. Dang it. I was like, they don't have any of those. Yeah, but it's just there to hide them. Oh man, you remember the fidget spinner craze of 2000? Yeah, we were at... I forget where at Disney and they have these new spinners where it has like a little spiral thing and as you push down on it, it spins like a little ball or whatever Disney-thing stuff they have on there. But yeah, you can take this off and we're just using the a little tiny LED there with the magnet that ran on and off. We show these off. I didn't bring the other thing. It comes with another thing on the bottom. So if you want to just spin it with your hand, you can. Oh, okay. But this is just a little add-on for that. I just thought it was cool because of the assembly, the way it's using all the parts. I thought it was because of all the recent UFO things. Oh, I mean it kind of matches with this guy and then... What was the other UFO thing? There's something else, UFO-E. Yeah, that's just the world's slowly accepting the existence of these flying objects. So if you get the grease step in there to be a little bit more spinny at all, definitely be more satisfying to get this spin in. All right, so this is a design up on Thingiverse by Aja Naderata on Thingiverse. Let's see all the different pieces here. Oh, here's some photos. These look fantastic. Yeah, it sticks to other things. There's other mounts that you can have. So you can stick it to the top or bottom of your desk. It's a nice little desk toy. Oh, there's the balls. Yeah, the weight. Completely forgot we had these. It's just a clever, I like that. It's kind of clever, but it's just better. That's what caught my eye about it. I know it's not going to do you there too. That's the other thing that caught my eye. I'll forgo playing it just to kind of save us some bandwidth. But yeah, the six-way ball bearing, six millimeter iron balls. Good stuff. Very neat. Very cool. This is obviously for the kids. When this is done here, I'll hand that over. I'm a kid. Kid and heart. It's for me. Break that into pieces. But yeah, I just wanted to show them. Probably not be easy to take it apart. The tolerance is on it. It's kind of... I have my spudger tool in the other room. Got it. I've got nails. There you go. So a nice little two-piece design for the little holder here. And yeah, I'm not going to be able to get the bearing out of there. But yeah, nice little assembly. Again, always surprised when tolerance's work and everything fits together. So kudos for that. It just snaps in like that. So you can have different colors. Again, that's the other thing that impressed me too. It's always fun when you can do that. And break it up and have all your different colors for the detail. And then obviously this little guy here for creating the light is super cool. So that completes the look there with the tractor beam. Smallest LED we can get. And that's this week's Community Makes. Community Makes. It's a cool week. Time-ups Tuesday. We have some more Community Makes. It's just a couple here that we're sent to us. So let's walk through those. First up, we have a remix of the Adafruit Pi Gamer case with soft buttons and port openings. So this is posted up by Juan on Juan. Juan on Juan posted this up. It has a nice opening here for the back of the Pi Portal. Do you guys have a Pi Portal? Or I'm sorry, a Pi Gamer. There's a lot of Pi going on here. But it got some buttons here too as well to go with the case. Snap Fit case. And some little modifications to it. Make it a little bit better, I think. Cool. A little bit of a summary here. Yeah, like the release buttons. Yeah. Cool. No supports as well for those buttons. Sweet. Okay. And next up, we have a remix of the Dark Saber. The Dark Saber build. It's a super fun build. This is the front maker feather wing. And this one here was posted up by Poo-Tee or Potty. Posted this up. It's their remix of the blade cover to have some of these sort of sparkle or crackly bits. It's more aligned with the Dark Saber from the Clone Wars. It's like the electricity thunderbolts that come out of Palpatine's hands. Let's go. And the print is like this purple. That's pretty cool. In the summary, it says you can print two color printer and glue it. Oh, okay. So it's a multi-color print. And nice. It's on both sides of the blade. Cool. It's built into blade. There it is. Very neat. Okay. And then the last one here, I think it's a make of the Raspberry Pi HQ camera case. Let's go ahead and get a photo here. Come on, thinkers. It's the black image. I know there's an image. I see it right here. Got lost in the server. Sorry folks. I can't... Up there it is. Just a little bit of... It's weird. Well, I'm not happy we did order the backup internet just in case. It's not the internet. Well, because it's like the camera's going and then like I'm doing the preview to make sure the feed is going. So that will definitely help. Mop heed. Mop head. Posted this up on Thingiverse. They're using it for their octoprint rig. It's really nice. Perfect use. Oh, gosh. It's doing everything. It's got the... Yeah. It's like, can I do the printer? Plus it's connected to the ethernet. Very nice. Good colors. Yeah. It says there's a note here. This did not fit the older Raspberry Pi 3 because the NIC was on the opposite side of this frame. The Pi 4 board fits like a dream. Yeah, it's designed for the Pi 4. It would be cool to have a hole or spacing for a tester for a heat sink. Ah, that's... All very nice design. 10 out of 10. Sweet. We'll get back into that one. We have a nice ample stock of the pies. Hard to get these. There's a bunch of projects we want to do. We can't. All right. And that is this week's community makes. Yay. Thank you to all the makers. Quick commentary here in Callaway, same with the UFO spinner. You can put those wireless LEDs in each one of those diffusers. I definitely want to do that. That's... They won't... It looks like they might fit. Yeah, if I scale it up. The problem is I only have two of them. So I would only have one on each side here. You only have two, what? Wires LEDs? Wires LEDs, yeah. Yeah, because we've embedded them into a couple other projects. But the Infinity Gauntlet is probably the main one, right? What else do we do with those wireless LEDs? Infinity Gauntlet? And the Gauntlet. I think we did it on that castle too. Oh, really? Look how good that would look. Yeah, it would look great. And you would just, you know, put it down on something hidden, like a hidden coil. Lots of fun ideas with wireless LEDs. Hopefully these get in stock soon. These are so cool. Hopefully in different colors too. Yeah, I want that Luma Noodle. Oh, I cannot wait for that. Yeah, just scale it up a tiny bit. That's so cool. It's a tiny bit. That's the name of the game, folks. Put an LED inside of something 3D printed and bam, it's amazing. Bam. So cool. All right, cool. Go ahead and wrap up the show. Yes, we're having too much fun with our toys. All right, tonight's show and tell is going to be hosted. Very special show and tell tonight. It's going to be hosted by Johnny P. John Park is going to be hosting. And we'll be hosted next week. All right, you know when that happens. I just said next week. But don't go anywhere. The show and tell starts at 7 30 p.m. Eastern time. And then at 8 p.m. Eastern time, asking engineers to pull out with Lamar and Phil. Open source hardware, new products. Ion MPI and more. All that tonight. You can also get a lovely 10% discount coupon code. So save up your cart. Get that pie portal and get 10% off. Hit on the reddit.com slash new. To see all the cool new goodies coming in stock soon. Maybe closer. Maybe around 5 o'clock, 5 p.m. All right. And then tomorrow, every Thursday, tune in to John Park's workshop at 4 p.m. Eastern time. Or 1 p.m. Pacific time. See, they did the math there. 4 minus 3 is 1. Which probably added into the 4 minus 3 is 1. And then tomorrow is a deep dive with Tim Fomee Guy. Yay. Every Friday at 2 p.m. Pacific or 5 p.m. Eastern. And then wrapping around on Mondays. Wait, Sundays from the desk of Lady Aida on select weeks this week. We had a holiday. So it was on Monday. Yeah. So we skipped that one. But she'll be back next week, I think. No, she didn't skip it. She was there. It was just on Monday. Oh. Yeah, you're right. Sorry. Yeah, we did. She did do a stream. What am I talking about? I don't know what I'm talking about. Tune in every Sunday, mostly on Sundays at a random hacker. Hours, usually around from 8 p.m. 8-11. Peter knows how. But I do know that this week's Circuit Python chat happened on Tuesday, but typically happens on a Monday at 2 p.m. Eastern. Tune in to that on any of the Pat Casting Services, YouTube, Archive, Playlist, or you can tune in live on the Mondays at 2 p.m. Eastern in the Discord chat rooms. Okay, and then Tuesdays is JP's Prada Peak of the Week. This week was a touch screen driver, I believe. You can get up to 50% off select products. And that's every Tuesday at 4 p.m. Eastern or 1 p.m. specific. And to get the discounts, you gotta do it live during the show. It's kind of a fun thing doing it for like, I think over 100 of these, right? We reached over 100. Yeah, it's a lot. JP has moved on to the drawers to like dedicated jewelry boxes. It's kind of fun to see the evolution of like, right now. Yeah, I ran out of drawers. Now I got these jewelry boxes, but all fun stuff every week on Tuesdays, 4 p.m. Eastern time. And then on Wednesdays, we still do this show, the longest 3D printing live stream that we have done. And every Wednesday at what time? 11 a.m. Eastern time. Yeah, next week we'll host last week was a host. Liz Clark did the host. Excellent. Really excellent job. Shout out to everybody for coming in last week. Hope to see you tonight on show Intel.

Come on and hang out, show off here. Awesome project you're working on. Some last comments here from Yanni School. Desktop CNC fixturing palette might be good for that Lego Flex. Yeah. Then shout out to let's make electronics. Hello. Howdy there. All right. It's going to be it for this episode. You can watch the replays. We've got a whole playlist. If you want to check out the layer by layers, we just came out with one. Yep, one or two more as we can. Post throughout the week on all of the Adafruit social so make sure to follow on the TikToks, Instagrams, Facebooks, Twitters, and of course YouTube. Yep, all of them are at Adafruit. Don't forget, you've got to keep on code tonight. If you want to put your orders in, maybe hang on to them until later tonight. That's it. Yep, thank you folks. We'll see you tonight. But until next time, remember to make a great day. A great day, folks. See you later, everybody. I'll pick up the pooch, but he's sleeping. We'll do it next week. Bye, everybody. One, one, one, one.
