All right, last week we had a nice break. Not really, we just didn't do the show. We still worked, but spring is among us. Weather is getting nicer up here in the Northeast. And down there, it's Florida. So it's always hot. Almost 90 and now it's 40, not 40, yeah. All right, well, that's how it is. This week's project, well, let's talk about last week's project. Let me get rid of this. Yeah, we have a new enclosure, snapped it enclosure for the Memento. That's the lovely ESP32 camera with the OVA 56640 camera. We finally got our hands on and we have in stock the camera enclosure kit. That means you get a nice camera plate with NeoPixel LEDs that go in front of the Memento board. So this enclosure encapsulates that and it has a 3D printed diffuser and a little extra ring there if you want it. Some little fancy grip stuff. You have a nice shutter button and you have access to your slide switch, your reset button and all of the ports on the side there. So you have the three-pin JST connector that connects the NeoPixel LED plate to the Memento and you also have an additional one there and then you also have a systemic UT port for I squared C sensors. Of course, you have access to your directional buttons, your two select buttons, your speaker has a little cut out there, that's a speaker and then there's a little notch here for the micro SD card slot. So you can take that in and out. The diffuser is printed in a clear PLA but you could also do it in a white PLA and in the app, the circuit python camera app, you can change the colors of the LEDs and the brightness of the LEDs. This is cool for doing those lighting effects and that's rainbow, you can barely see it, but yeah. So it's a pretty fun enclosure for your Memento camera with LED ring. No thing I forgot to mention, it has a built-in threaded, oh my God, it came off, that's funny. We saw these threaded tripod screw inserts in those just get screwed into the bottom here of the back plate. So you have a nice tripod adapter on there. And that's the Memento, here I am. Check it out. If you want to download and 3D print the files, they are in the Memento enclosure guide. You can also of course print the enclosure that's designed for just the bare board, we have that as well. But that's pretty much it. We, like I said, we just added it to the, that learn guide that we released a couple of weeks ago. And Pedro's showing it there, it's not fits. There's no screws necessary for it. The U-printed, your diffuser in white, it seems to have similar diffusion, just press this right in. So if you don't want that diffuser for some reason, you want to burn your eyes, yeah. Yeah, that clicks in pretty good, huh? No glue, just friction fits. Yeah, that's very nice. Yeah, mine kind of has a loose fit, but it stays in place because it kind of covers the Neopixel bodies themselves, you know what I mean? Like it kind of slips over it. I have a question here from Tyeth on Twitch, saying, hey, 3D printing Bros. Is the new case compatible with the strap or lanyard? Or was that, or was there one a few weeks ago? Yes, that's a good point, yeah. I was going to add one. You want to add those? Yeah, I ran out of time. Okay, we can add those. I didn't think most people wanted it. We didn't rush it out, but we just figured, like let's kind of just, you know, leave out some of the super extra stuff. I almost left out the tripod screw. Oh yeah, I did. You added it and I was like, okay, that's probably pretty important. Yeah. But yeah, we can make another version and upload it to the Learn Guide and all the STL websites. Yeah, Lander would be good because then you can actually take it with you and instead of putting it in your pocket. Good idea, Tyeth. Wix, wires is nice work. Thank you very much. We have a step file that's open. The STLs are open as well, so you can download those. There's like a little extra bit here. There's this little grip thing. It's more decorative, but it kind of gives you an area for your arm to rest over. There's just a lot of blank space there because I had to kind of cover, I really wanted to cover this cable for the LED plate. It kind of sticks out a little bit, so I figured I'd cover it by just extending the enclosure this ways. And cameras kind of notoriously have that sort of grip area to hold on to. So it kind of gives you some nice ergonomics when you're actually pressing that thing. Any other things I could talk about? I think that's it. Printed in different colors. It's kind of fun in two colors. Still relatively thin. Using the same battery, the 420, short cable lipo battery. And yeah. It does require the little kit, the LED ring kit, so that does not come with a memento. You got to get that separate. Yes. But it's pretty dang cool because it just, the way that the board is designed, and then it comes with the super small JST cable. I was going to include the backing plate because this comes with that enclosure kit, but it was really difficult. Because it kind of, the thickness of it kind of covers up the buttons. And like with an additional 3D print, it was going to be really hard. It was too much, so I just. No, it is. You're already at the limit here with pushing down the button where it's just tall enough to where you still can push the buttons. Yeah. But this is, if you don't have a 3D printer, this kind of protects the backing a little bit. So, yeah. So that's all good. That's the camera, memento camera. Yep, and then the, it was supposed to be like a features video about the memento. Yeah. So you can check that out as well, like the time lapse, seeing it in the stop motion, and some of the other filters that are included as part of the fancy camera. So you got Python demo. You got it. Okay. Next up, we have. Hope in the camera kit. The LED ring part of that is back in stock. So you can check that out, post the link to that. Pick those up, because it's definitely, makes the build a lot more compact. Because before we were just making our own little LED ring and attaching it that way. Yeah, like with the robot. Yeah. And sometimes you wanna have a separate LED ring for the design. Yeah. Yep, the memento is in stock. And so is the camera kit, as you said. And if you want, you can get 10% off your order with Birdcam. Speaking of Birdcam, let's go ahead and take a look at this week's project. We took the memento camera, depth board, and we finally are ready to release this project. It is a bird feeder, or wildlife feeder, because it works with squirrels. Pedro, you have one? I have one here. Spring season is here in our hemisphere. It started to have more birds are coming out and we were able to get a couple birds and squirrels to feed on it and take some photos of it. So this uses a PIR sensor, which is this white bulb here. And whenever it detects motion, it takes a photo and sends a JPEG to Adafruit IO, where you can view it on the Adafruit IO website via a feed or dashboard. And if you are a plus member, you can use the email triggers and get an email when this detects motion, it takes a photo. We did some testing over the weekend and we were able to get some nice photos of various animals. I shared some of them on the previous streams because we were still testing it. It has about eight hours of battery run time with the 2,200 million battery, which is in stock now. Nice. Birds actually perch and use the little perch here. So that was nice to see. Just a couple notes about birds. They're very skettish. If a bird's not used to your area, they'll be cautious and then they'll fly away. So you wanna give some time for your birds to kinda get familiar with this area and make sure that it's a safe area to actually eat from. Otherwise, maybe they don't show up. But with that, let me go ahead and take a look at our IO feed. Here's where I'll feed it. There you go. My bird. One of the things I forgot to mention is that while testing it, we noticed that the camera, even though it's kinda close to the PIR sensor, we needed to kinda angle down. So what we ended up doing was we added these standoffs. I don't know if I talked about that yet, but these standoffs just kinda allow, it just gives it a little bit like 10 degrees of an angle when it goes downward. So you can kinda see a little bit more here. So some of the smaller birds, as you can see here, it might only get its head. Just keep that in mind. You're kinda limited to position the lens because the camera is kinda fixed where it is with the PCB. And having the PIR sensor down here, I think works because, well, that's where it's feeding from. It's pretty close to the feeding tray. But with that said, let's go ahead and take a look at the learn guide. This is the lab project with Liz Clark and Brent. Brent originally started it. And Liz helped us tweak the code slightly so that it takes a photo at a fixed focal point so that it's not having to autofocus. Sometimes we would catch photos of autofocus birds. So we figured let's just manually set the focus so that it's always right where that perch is. So it's always in focus. And we wanna get birds like that. But you have the option to change that up. So, let me see if I can make it bigger a bit. So, we have a couple of photos. Here's a photo of an actual bird eating from it. Tends to work pretty well as far as we can. Here's a nice squirrel photo. I showed these last time, but that was the best squirrel that we were able to get. And there's some other birds, there's a couple of birds. It helps when the area already has bird feeders and birds are already comfortable eating there. I think that helped tremendously getting birds to be comfortable with our very colorful, I think that's the key right there. Another area was completely set up for that. Yeah, some other places might not have birds because there's other wildlife feeding on the bird. So I wasn't able to get any. I had squirrels like all over. And the past couple of weeks, actually when this project started, I noticed that they were disappearing. And then we started noticing that there was a hawk that was always hanging around. Yeah. So we think you actually- Why don't you just put some hot dog meat on the feeding tray? Maybe we'll get a hawk. But you don't wanna do that, you know? Then the hawk will like, I don't know, always come in that area and maybe you don't want a hawk in that area. You have your neighbors have small dogs and whatnot. So, you know, cautionary tale, just keep that in mind when working with wildlife, you wanna be careful. All right, so we have everything in stock, which is great. If you do want email actions, email triggers, notifications with Adafruit IO, we do have a subscription pass for one year, so you can pick that up if you want. Or you could just use the free version and just kind of take a look at the feed here. That's Pedro's wrist. Anyway, now the PR sensor is in stock. It's a pretty standard PR sensor. It has a delay and sensitivity. So, if you want to adjust the potentiometers on it, you can adjust those as you want, but it basically works like a switch. We have a connector here, a three-pin JST connector that connects directly into the side port of the Memento and it plugs into the header pins on the PR sensor. A couple other bots like the battery. It's a nice battery. It gives you about eight hours of runtime. USB-C cable, some heat shrink if you wanna use heat shrink and a slew of screws for assembling the birdhouse bit. Wiring stuff. So this page kind of walks you through soldering the JST cable to the cable that's included, although you really don't need to do that. You can- No, you don't. They would sell one. I left it in there just like it's a nice documentation. Anyway, if you wanna extend the cable for a different project, I think that's handy. And then of course you got a fritzing diagram of where it connects to. So yeah, let's kind of run it through it. We have some STL files. We have a step file and a Fusion 360 file available to download. The parts are fairly large. They're gonna fit on your mid-sized 3D printing bed if you're doing an FDM 3D printer. So I have the minimum build volume that's required for this part. This is the roof part here in my slicer. I like to use Cura as my slicer. So those are the biggest parts I think. And then they all print without any support material. They all print as is ready. They're oriented ready to print as is with FDM printers. There's a little CAD animation of the thing coming together so you can get an idea of where the screws go. One thing that's kind of cool is that you don't need the feeder, the house plate, and the roof. You can just print the enclosure, the front and the back enclosure, and then you can mount that to anywhere you want. So it doesn't have to be a bird feeder. If you set it up on your dog bowl. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you want to. That's right off. Yeah, so let me just turn this into whatever PIR camera. So that's super cool that I used to have a custom packing for this to adjust. And then the other point, your measurements for having like the zip tie is perfect at all. Oh, yeah. That's a nice one. I want to hook it up to like a post lamp post or like your fence. These bigger size zip ties work perfectly for that. And yeah, just have to figure out the backing for this. I mean, you can just use this one since it just snaps in and out. Yeah, yeah. Yep. So yeah, it's a pretty modular in that sense. And then there's a nifty print-in-place switch to actuate the memento slide switch. That's kind of cool. That's kind of a new-ish thing. We did that with the doorbell, the IoT doorbell with the memento as a built-in switch actuator with prints in place. So that's kind of cool from a design standpoint. And then if you want a 3D model of the memento, we have files on our CAD parts GitHub repo, which is a link there. We have some documentation on how to get started with Adafruit.io if you're very new. We'll show you how to install, or how to set up your account. It's free to do so. It's normally linked to your Adafruit account. If you don't have one, it's free to make one. You'll start off with devices and then it'll walk you through that. It'll walk you through creating a feed. You just click the Feed button, you name it, and then you can start collecting data. There's one note you do want to turn off, the feed history storage. You just want to turn that off because it's, I forget why, but there's a reason why. When you're setting up the Wi-Fi stuff, you want to create a settings.toml file, and this walks you through that for CircuitPython. It's kind of like your secrets file for storing your Wi-Fi SSID in your Wi-Fi password. Your Adafruit I.O username and your Adafruit I.O key. So you'll need to grab those from the website once you create your account. But it's all documented there for you. Here is the code. Again, it's modified by Liz, but it was created by Brent, basically taking, setting up your Adafruit I.O account. Well, yes, it's grabbing your Adafruit account, credentials, connects to your Wi-Fi, and then it initializes the camera. We turn off the display to save on battery life because you're not really using the display in this project. We can change the resolution here if you want. You can look at the pie camera library and find out which resolution you want. I think the value three stands for equates to an 800 by 600 resolution. You can increase that all the way up to 2500 by something. And then here is where you set the focus. If you want to do autofocus, you can comment this line out or you can change the step. And this is documented in the pie camera library if you want to get a better idea of which values work where we found this value to work. In our testing, we found this value works well with the distance of where the perch is for this specific bird. Yeah. Oh, how funny it just came through. The bird? There it is. Come on. Cool. All right, we're setting up the PIR sensor to be on A0, which is the JST port on the side of the memento. We're creating the JPEG object here. And then in the loop, we're basically saying if the PIR sensor sees some movement, take a JPEG, send it to A3IO. Otherwise, just kind of wait until we see some movement. You get a nice, and we've got some nice printouts to let you know what's happening if you have it connected to your serial console. You can see that movement is detected. It's taken a picture or it's waiting for movement or movement has ended. Or if it errors out, it'll give you a nice prompt. The rest of it just walks you through making sure that you have all the libraries installed. When you use the project bundle and you use this button here, it'll download the library dependencies. So that's really nice. And then we just kind of walk through the code here. All good stuff. The assembly just walks you through securing the PIR sensor to a dedicated bracket that gets secured to the Memento. Really love the Memento from a hardware design standpoint because these standoffs make it so nice to just attach all sorts of funky brackets to your PCB because they're threaded on a nice hockey envelope. So it's super, super great to work with that. So we basically get the PIR sensor on that bracket and then secure it to the bottom of the Memento. And then we connect it, just plugs in the battery. Same thing, it's a little battery clip but it gets secured to the Memento's standoffs that are near the display. And then that plugs in. That's kind of your setup there. And then the Memento gets fitted into the front half of the case. And it gets secured with four screws, although you could always just opt to use two screws like Peter did. And then you'll want to set up the tray with the house plates, with some a little bit longer screws and hex nuts. The house plate has these hex nut shaped capture slots. Like they're like these little recessed areas to capture the hex nut. I thought that'd be nice to add there so that you don't have to use maybe pliers to like hold the hex nut in. Anyway, it's just a little design thing that I like to do with hex nuts. Pretty similar thing with the roof and the house plate, those get installed with some longer M3 screws and some hex nuts. And then this is where you want to add your kind of additional standoffs. These are M3 size standoffs. This helps to angle the snap fit enclosure so that the camera is kind of angled down towards the feeder. So you get those installed with some screws and then I'm using some screws and hex nuts for the bottom screws for the back plate. And then the front plate just snap fits over the back plate like that. And then you have access to the USB port for programming and charging the battery. And that's kind of the whole assembly in a nutshell. The usage page just kind of walks you through some things like, you know, it's not fully waterproof. Ideally you want to use it outdoors during dry conditions, add your own feed. A little bit of note about the birds. Wildlife can be unpredictable. So here's how you can view your feed. Wow, that birds. Yeah, that's a nice bird, right? Wow. You got that. Yeah, it says B-Rubel. Got those around here. Yeah, it was a nice yellow bird. Maybe it's a pet bird. I don't know. I'll have to ask Brandt. Hey, where'd you get that bird? Is it a fake bird? Is it AI generated bird? There are some ways to adjust the sensitivity and the delay timing on the PIR sensor. There's two little pots there. You can use a screwdriver to adjust those. I left mine default because I didn't really see a need to adjust it. And there's a dedicated learn guide on using a PIR sensor. If you just want to make sure that it's still working, you can always run some demo code to make sure that it works. I actually did that for the video to make the LED turn green when it sees motion and turn red when it doesn't. On the memento. And that is the learn guide. Nice. And we got a little puppy shot here. You got a puppy shot? Oh, that's what you were doing? No, I went through the bathroom first. There you go. Oh, you already moved your screen. Yes, here's the bird again. Look how sharp that is. The bird? Really good quality. Yeah. And that says 800 by 600. I could make it bigger, so. Yeah. Alrighty, we got some bird gifts. We got a bunny and we got some owls. If everyone's up to eat you, you'd be skated too. That is true. Hawk is less of a danger to your dog than coyotes would be. Okay, that is true. Yeah, that would be a squirrel feeder in my background. Yep. I agree. A squirrel would look, I think a squirrel would be captured better too with the camera lens. Dog, where's your dog? There's Rufio sleeping. Okay. Yeah, that's where you probably want to put autofocus back on. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yep. Get closer. We're sharing an Adafruit IO account, so it's going back and forth between our two. That's okay, so that's cool. Yeah. Obviously you have close to your wifi router, so you don't want to be too far. I did have some suction cups originally to hang it on a window, but that's what these slots are there for. Pedro uses zip ties, so you have all sorts of different ways you can mount this thing to a post or your window. I think it's modular in that sense too. We'll be looking at your notes. All right, let's see. Yep, so if you want to pick up anything to make your own bird feeder, bird cam, we'll get your 10% off, your order. Awesome, awesome. Cool. All right, we're ready for, what are you prototyping? All right, let's go ahead and jump into what are we prototyping this week? We are checking out the PicoDubbler. Let me get my screen up. Yep. That is Pico. Pico. I got this little guy here. Oh. Just the layout there. All right, cool, so this is the PicoDubbler. We are demoing it here with the Pico DVI and just wanted to show the little demo of it running some of the circuit Python code that's on here. So the main project for this is just making a Lego mount for these. So what we have here is just this little plate that holds onto the standoffs and then on the bottom here, you can see that it has the Lego compatible little plate on here. So we have the studs that can go either like the tubes can go into the studs here or in between. That's very nice. Yeah, and that just goes on like that. I'll make a version if you need to have like screws on there. Sure. You can have that as well. And then it also has the 500 milliamp hour battery that also has the Lego studs on there. Yep. Same thing with that. The tubes can either go inside the plate or the little studs or right on top. I'm just showing the camera here. And so the studs go in like that or in between. So you can have the perfect layout for laying everything out. And there is some of the features of this. You have the lipo JST port on the doubler, an extra stem up port. And then on and off switch on here and a reset button on the other side. So we turn that on, we can see the DVI demo going. Oh, it might help if I turn the monitor on. Hey, there it is. It's very cool. Yeah. I want to mention the lipo battery. It also has lipo battery charging. So you can charge the battery. I was looking at the product page and I searched for charging and you can find that on there. So I did notice that when I plugged it in that there was a yellow charging status LED going off. But I didn't know if that's what it was doing or not. Yup, it's definitely charging. It's got a charge rate of 250 milliamps to 500. Oh, nice. Oh wait, yes, 250. Okay. Oh, I see. It's actually the default charging rate is 500 milliamps. If you want to do smaller batteries, you can cut a trace on the back and it'll cut it to 250. So it depends on the battery. You have a pretty big battery there so you want to leave it default. Yeah, that's pretty cool. So I haven't been able to get any more 500 milliamp power batteries so I need to make another 421. Oh, okay. I have a lot of those. And I think this is like my last 500. You can see it's looking kind of sad here with how to re-solder it and then hop away with the same relief. Yeah, so this really puts a Pico W to use because then you have a nice pin-outs. You have a STEMQT if you want to just plug and play a sensor and then you have that additional pair of headers that you can add a bell so you have access to it. It keeps your project kind of small low profile because you don't have to like stack them. So really, really. Yeah, it's definitely works out. Yeah. I think you have an on-off switch, right? So you can actually turn it off the thing. Yep, you have an on-off switch. It just reduces all the things you have to solder to get it working, which is really nice. All the headers, you do have to solder on. True. It takes quite a while to do, you know. Right, it makes it modular once it's all worked up. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So all this can pop up. And when I was looking at the product page, I was like, when did they start adding STEM up ports to the Pico? All the ones I have don't have any. So that's cool. Is that the Pico W? The Pico W did not have the ones I have anyway because we got them when they first came out. I don't have any STEM up connections on those. Yeah, you're right. I don't see it either. Yeah, I'm looking at the product page here. And yeah, that Pico has a, because it's a 2021 Pico, Pico H. Oh, it's Pico H, not a Pico W. I've got both. I've got H and W. Interesting. I think the H was just for headers, right? Nice for headers. Oh. I mean, oh boy. So anyway, you do have an extra slide switch on the actual TVI as well. Focus. You're not. And you can have that set that to your liking as well as what the product page said. No, that's it. Since this isn't mainly about the doubler though, I don't know why I'm talking about the DVI. Yeah. It's just a demo of those features. We do have a singular. Singular. A single. Oh, I need that. I need to make one for the single one as well. Okay. And I don't know what else. Yeah, I mean, it pops. You have to come off. You got DZ to add like a Neopixel ring on there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because they're broken out. And although the labels are really nice and you have the button on there on the side. So all good things. So super cool way to have, it's gonna be attached to a TV or whatnot, playing like menus. If that's the only type of graphics and you need to run, this is so efficient. And then you don't have to have like a DVD player or a whole Raspberry Pi with Linux running underneath. Yeah, it's nice. So the shapes like that, like menus or like even the graphics that we show here, we have Blinka that shows up. The techs, definitely a super efficient way to have graphics on the monitor. Or if you're displaying, you know, you have a sensor hooked up. Well, the cool way to do that. Yep. And it's a Wi-Fi board. So you can do some Wi-Fi stuff. Yeah, we do the PicoW would be able to do that. Yep. So it's in stock. It's about 750. Oh, here it is working with the screen saver demo. I think it's not one working. Where's that demo? I know. I think it was a custom made. Oh, I didn't know. Yeah, we have the code. You just gotta tweak the pinouts. Yeah. Some assembly may be required, right? Yeah. So that'll be forward next week. And then some of the other ancillary things too, our DIY HDMI DVI connectors. So we have the custom ribbons that can connect the USB or the HDMI. And we have all of the different connectors too. So this one's going from DVI to HDMI. And then we have like a bunch of other different ports too. Like right angle, left angle, like one going up, one going down. So tons of different options. Like, I think they were used for like drone, the POV drone, like the headsets, like it's what those were used for. If you needed to have the HDMI cable going, routing in a different funky place, all those different angle connectors are for. So you can definitely do that as well. You know what I like about these is, turn this off so I don't short anything off. The little latches that are on there is how you swap these out for different adapters for both. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Yeah, look, my favorite HDMI cables. Yeah, because they're super thin. You know, they're, again, DIY, so you can choose the length that you want and the type of connector you need. Yeah, I got a correction here. Ty has been saying that the three pin, or the Stema QT port is not actually a Stema QT port on the Pico. Let me, there it is. Oh yeah, there's just three pin. It's a three pin. It's like a three pin. Yeah, it's a debug pin. But there is there. And you can see here, it's out of stock, but we do have some in stock for the Pico without the debugging bin or the headers. There's the pre-headers. There's loose headers. That's the non. There's so many variations now. There's some skews. It's nice that the sidebar has them all listed here, but that's the deal one with the pre-soldered headers and it's out of stock. Oh, another good piece. And other ancillary stuff too, in terms of how this project demo is running, case you design with the HDMI screen backpack, yes. Yeah, that's nice. Yep. And so you have a battery in here. I think we had a, we did a whole project video for this one, I believe. So that should be up. I'll link it when the project comes out. Cool. It's not a fit, right? Kind of curious on what's on the inside. Oh, there we go. Yep. Yeah, it has like a, oh man, that poor ribbon cable's been bent. It's still working. Yeah. It has a, what is it? Power Boost 500, 1,000 C for charging. Yeah, they're kind of older boards, but they still work really well. And this is a super compact little HDMI display. The other one that I was using when I was first testing, I'm like, you know, the bigger ones that we have in stock as well. So it's small, but you have to print it and kind of build it. Yep. Okay. Well, that's it for prototyping. Nice Lego compatible plate for the new PyCow proto plate. Good stuff. All right. I have a 3D model of the PyCow thing coming out soon. I just got to add the headers to it. I'll upload that to the Cat Parts repo in the next day or two. Nice. Okay. All right. I don't really have a shop talk. No new Cat Parts yet. Like I said, I'll be adding a new one very soon. So now I think we are ready to do community makes. We'll do a time-lapse Tuesday in the community makes. So go ahead and kick that off while I get links ready. I hope. So what are we doing this week's or last week's? Real quick. It's a ball. Yeah, last week's community make is this. Everybody's printing those airless balls. So I thought I'd go smaller and print like a ping pong ball, airless ping pong ball. Kids just kept calling it an Epcot ball. Really? I have not tested it with the paddles, but it bounces pretty good. And all the bouncing I have not broken it yet. So it should be pretty strong. I haven't measured it, but the thickness of the lattices is pretty thick. So it doesn't look like it'll break on you as easy. This is just PLA. So I'm super surprised that this hasn't broken. Yeah. Maybe with a paddle it would like an intense game, but I can't beat the print time for this. Yeah. I've seen people print the full size basketball one and it breaks on like the first drop because you know, it's just the thing. Anyway. So that's what we got there. All right, let's ping pong ball. It's pretty cool. All right, for this week, since Easter is really close, a lot of people have been uploading the really cool eggs. This one has a little latch on it. It's super cool. And inside of course, Adobot is hiding. So if you take a look at the latch, it has this little bump right there that goes right into these little grooves right here. And then this is all print in place too. So you have two hinges when that holds the eggs together and then this little guy right here that is acting as the latch. So that's a super cool way to have something like that. And then the little groove here for like having a finger going on there and pop it up. Yeah. So we're using the rainbow filament for this and it's going from purple to the gold there. And I like these, what are they? Webs, right? Webs, what they call the ribs. I think ribs. Yeah. Yeah. And this is a really cool alternative to those plastic eggs if you're going to hide any. Although this one's going to take quite a while to print. Maybe this would be like the master egg, the toughest one to hide with, you know. Yeah. Biggest chocolate in it or whatever. Biggest chocolate. That's a super cool design. Give me the three to print it in chocolate. That'd be cool. I don't know what. Here is the design at the free download. It's from 3D Tech Designs and it's a dual extrusion version as well. So here you can see all the different multi-color variations with all these fun intricate patterns even comes with an egg holder, which is nice. Oh, I didn't print it out. You didn't print the egg holder? All right. Well, still have time. And it's free. So that's very nice. So shout out to 3D Tech Designs on Colt 3D. There's a couple different designs as well. I think this is a design B is what it's labeled as. Oh, OK. Yeah, I've seen it. Wow, these are very intricate. And he does include the bamboo studio file as well for all the different colors. Yeah, so this looks like a two-tone, two-color thing. And it prints in place, as you said, right? Yeah. Yeah. No supports. No supports. Nice gift. Very nice. That is such a clean print. Right? Cool. And you said you used rainbow PLA, I believe. Rainbow. Cool. All right. And that is the Time Ups Tuesday. Yeah, the only thing that sucked was the I wanted to do a dual extrusion, but it's only as a 3MF file, the bamboo studio one. So a lot of people are uploading it that way. I wish you would upload the STLs as well, up on those up. Well, you should just get a bamboo printer. Just get one. That's our problem. Yeah. For the longest time, we didn't have a cruelty printer. Yeah. Now it's time to move on and go with the multi-material. All right. Anyways, moving on, we're going to go to Community Makes, starting off with, not that, a remix of a Raspberry Pi 5 Snap Fit case. This was uploaded by JH on printables. And it's modified for a 7-inch Kippler screen. So this is the Pi 5. It kind of gets secured to, hey, there's my cat. Hi, kitty. Hi, Winnie. Come on. There you go. There's a screen, basically. And it gets secured to the back of that screen. So it's a nice kind of add-on remix, rather. They said, I really like the Kippler screen case made and shared by JanJew420. But I have a Pi 5, which I did get it to fit here, not as well as I was hoping, unless I cut some parts out. So they took our case and basically made it fit. So very good. Very nice. After that, we have another case for the Raspberry Pi 5. Looks like folks are finally getting their Pi 5s. And they're printing their things out. So Fatman5050 on printables uploaded theirs. They said they really like the look of the case. And they gave it five stars. They added some personalization to it. So they printed it with, I think, fuzzy skin to give it a little bit of a texture on the outside. And they put a shy guy from Super Mario Brothers, which kind of looks cool. So you can customize it to your heart's content. After that, we have our first make of the synth guitar project, Circuit Python synth guitar using SynthIO. This is posted up by JDK87. Says, my daughter loves it, thanks. And they printed it in this lovely pink and black color combination. So it's really nice to see when somebody makes it, especially for their kiddo. That's a very involved build. Oh, yeah. Super fun, though. Yeah, it is, totally. After that, Nick Fajaro on printables posted their make of the Disney Magic Band Reader. This uses the Wizz Kit, the RFID Wizz Kit, and a Neopixel Stripe and a Feather RP2040 Minioval Speaker to make a cool Magic Band Reader for folks that have Disney Magic Bands. They said, 3D models are straightforward. Use it to print. Appreciate the source. We're available so I can make my own and tweak the base. So they tweaked the base. There you go. Looks very nice. So when you put your Magic Band Reader up to it, it does a Neopixel animation and plays some sound effects of your choosing. Still a pretty cool project. Yeah, I mean, you can hook it up to turning a light on. A lot of people like to their Christmas tree and whatnot. Yeah, yeah, it's pretty cool. And the Wizz Kit is a great piece of kit. It has a built-in relay switch. So you can do that, turn things on and off. All right, more Disney stuff. Nick Fajaro also made. Fajaro also printed the Epcot Spaceship Earth. Nice. All this uses the WLED software to make some fun LED animations with Neopixel strips. And theirs is looking really good. This is great files. My printer had issues with the Hessian. So as far as we got a gap between the halves of the sphere, coding was super straightforward. Excellent. So you two can build your own. Moving on, we have a make of our 16 by 16 Neopixel square pixel display. It uses a piece of black LED acrylic to diffuse the Neopixels. And yeah, they said put a bunch of sweet patterns on this and upload it to GitHub. And there's a YouTube link as well. So that's cool. Looks like a little pixelated fireplace. Let me see if I can play this. Oh yeah, let's check that out. There's some hearts. Oh, it has accelerometer on it. Amazing. What? Yeah, I didn't know that. Oh. Yeah, I don't know if this is WLED or not. But they said they have some GitHub. So this is posted up by Trampster on Thingiverse. It's amazing. Yeah, it looks really cool. There's some other demos coming up here. Give it a minute. There it is. Kind of got your kind of game of life sort of thing. Some sprites, I suppose. Some kind of cool. There's the fireplace. There's the random stuff and heart. Very cool. So if you got yourself one of those flexible 16 by 16 NeoPixel displays, definitely create a nice little case for it and it'll display. After that, we have a remix of the Tesla Charger cable organizer. This is for pole mountings put up by Fulbridge-38. Looks like it gets secured to a pole. So it's cylindrical. I think it's the actual conduit that hides the actual electrical cable wire. Yes, interesting. Yeah, so you can print your own. It fits, I forget which Tesla cable. It's a nice design. Use it on a canopy that they bought Costco. Wanted to organize the cable inside Canopy Mounted on one of its poles. Used a 1 by 34 and 2, 30 second inch steel hose clamp attached to the pole. There's a Home Depot link to that. First time 3D modeling on 3D. So some measurements may be off. OK, yeah. So that's a remix. Very nice. And then last one is another Epcot Spaceship Earth. This one's by Hugh Rawlinson. They post it up there. That looks really nice. Love that filament choice. It looks really nice. And no comment. It's just the five stars. Appreciate that. Yeah, it's still one of my favorite projects because it's just a fun geometric sphere with LEDs inside. And it prints with no supports. It's pretty amazing. That is this week and last week's community makes. Thank you, everybody, so much for posting their makes. It's really cool to see some of the first time, too. All right. We're getting close to the end of the show. So remind everybody if you want to support Adafruit and your Maker Habit, you can pick up some kits, boards, batteries, what have you, and get 10% off your order with our coupon code, Bergam. Let's check in on Discord. Is anybody got any comments, questions? Oh, wow, these. Do Wester has some really cool enclosure designs for some Raspberry Pi projects. Pi 5 with different MVE and USB SSDs. These are really fantastic. Yeah. If these are up anywhere, I'd love to share them on the Adafruit blog. These look great. I really love the SpeakerGrow and the ports. They look really, really nice. Look at that, the ball feet, too. Yeah. How does it fit there? Yeah, those are nice, little rubber feet. Very cool. And then I'm looking at the other chats. Looking pretty good. We're all caught up. OK. 10 nights, we have some special shows. Let's get these banners up. So we do have Show and Tell tonight, hosted by Mr. and Mrs. Lady Aida. It's going to be at 7 30 PM Eastern time. You can hang out in the Discord server to get an invite if you want to share some projects that you're working on or you're going to work on, or that you have worked on. And then no Ask an Engineer tonight, but instead we have an Adabox unboxing with John Park. I don't have a banner for that, but that's what's going on. It's scheduled. It's happening. Adabox unboxing tonight at 8 PM Eastern time. I see the backup video here. Just in case anything goes wrong, it will come out. Cool. OK, so tune in. We hope to see you on Show and Tell as well. And then I believe JP is doing a workshop tomorrow. Normally, he does a workshop show at 4 PM Eastern. So tune into that. And then on Fridays, it's either a deep dive with Tim Fomey Guy or Scott. It's Fridays at 2 PM Pacific or 5 PM Eastern. And then on Sundays, we have a stream from the desk of Lady Aida, where you can see the great search with Dujiki. And then on Mondays is a Circuit Python weekly chat with folks from the community and core developers. Tuesdays is JP's product pick of the week. We can get up to 50% off, select items. And then back right back to 3D Wednesdays, 3D Wednesdays. Our show every morning at 11 AM Eastern time. I think we're back next week. Right? I think we're done with some break. No, the kids are back in school. Back in school, at least down there. Up here, the kids haven't gone on break yet. They go on break in April. Oh, wow. Yeah, it's already getting empty in the parks, I think yesterday and April. That's good for you. No, not really. It's cold now and we're working. I can't get out. All right, the least busy is when we're all working. Cool. Well, I have a plan trip to go down there in June. So just what do we call it? Like for future reference, we'll be taking a week or two off in June. Oh, yeah, probably two. You leave right when the show is and get back when the show is. Yeah, that's right. So two weeks off. I can't wait to get the humid 90 degree weather. Oh, it's probably going to be 100. Man, wow. That's fine. All right, everybody, thanks so much for watching. We'll see you next week. Shout out to everybody watching live and folks watching the archive. OK, thank you, everybody, so much. Like I said, we'll see you later tonight on Show and Tell. And next week, but until then, remember to make a great day. Bye, everybody.
