These DIY mushrooms will light up even dark winter nights! 🍄💡
I invented them for teaching kids about electronics, but if you make one for yourself, I won’t judge! 😃
It’s simple enough to recreate on your own, but if you’d like to use my templates and instructions, here you go: https://www.voltpaperscissors.com/rgb-mushrooms

Our first Prusa arrived back in 2018, and the Mk3 is still going strong. 💪
A member spent hours giving it a proper overhaul and it’s back printing lovely parts again — a bit slower than newer machines, but we still love it.
Here it is printing a red Benchy using filament from RS. 🚤🧵

The Energy for Ukraine team uses our workshop to recycle battery cells into rugged powerbanks for Ukraine's unstable power regions. Custom 3D prints with special filament, USB lights and LED displays make them tech highlights. Great for our members' battery recycling interests.

Paper bags and color-changing RGB LEDs are a great combination 😍 So simple to make a lampshade for my Book Lamp project but the same process can certainly be used for other light-up projects.

A slightly wonky week, so far. Monday, I had dual bookclubs and a pool session at noon. I had a soft tire and I had to refresh my memory on how to use the latest version of air dispensers. Initially, I started by letting air OUT of the tire. Fortunately, I figured out how to get it in the right direction. The guy from the convenience store came out to check on me, and he said that he goes to a mechanic to get his tires checked and filled because he doesn't trust their machine. One of the librarians running a book club was Korean, from Gwangju, so we had a good chat, using a little of her language and comparing notes about her hometown, the birthplace of Korean democracy.
Tuesday, I bussed to and from the downtown library #makerspace to do some sewing. Wednesday, I panicked when I couldn't find the container for my bank cards/driver's license since I'd put it somewhere safe! Also, no Mastodon!
The temperature today is SO cold, the tips of my fingers have some frostbite! Coffee was appreciated.

In our living room our flipper machine is the favorite – endless gaming fun and fascinating tech with all its cables, sensors, lights and mechanics. When a button broke and the controls failed a small group of our members fully repaired it. A great chance for some hands-on insights!

Getting ready for the winter storm. Pay my fees at Astate. Go to the maker space and laser print some game pieces. Visit a friend? (If he's home.) Keep the fire burning. Practice piano and vibraphone. Read, rest, and relax. (I have to schedule downtime or I never relax.)

Went to the Astate maker space called The Garage and talked to them about making pieces for my 10Print game. Joined northernlights on anonradio. We played "Seven Steps To Heaven" at small group rehearsal. Now I want to make the SVG file for my game pieces.

It's been a busy day. Got all my sheet music printed for my lesson after a final listen through. Practiced my piece. Went to school early to take care of business. Had a great Jazz Improv lesson.

Been a busy weekend.
Finished putting the roof on the new pod at @leigh_hackspace. We're almost done with this build. Far pod is rented, near pod is being used for metalworking (for now).
The build has been a group effort, and workshops should be back to their usual dysfunctional state, as opposed to the current non-functional state by the end of the week.
Main space, electronics, Pi room and social room are all still available.
Back on air! 📻🔧
We’ve a fresh repair write-up on the TOG blog: fixing a broken rotary encoder on a Yaesu FT-857. A nice, satisfying teardown and a straightforward part swap to bring the rig back to life.
