During #MonthOfMaking I've been working on my model railway control / automation.

I've created a model railway point controller Capacitor Discharge Unit (CDU).

Eventually I hope to integrate with a Raspberry Pi Pico to provide digital control.

@themagpi With all the modelling done and code tweaked on my Pico powered level crossing lights (youtu.be/IupTxBROl1U?si=L3M2r0), I've started looking at sensors to trigger the sequence when trains are approaching. #MagPiMonday #MonthOfMaking #TMRGUK

Good morning, folks!

It's Monday, which means we want to see what Raspberry Pi or Pico projects you've been working on!

@themagpi I've started on my next project by looking at how to connect 2 OLED screens to a single SPI bus on a Raspberry Pi Pico.

Just had a blast using Raspberry Pi Pico W for a physics experiment! We created a custom vibration generator using parts from other projects, like Pico Pong. See the video where we share all code & build process youtu.be/vqJnNsngvJQ

Happy Wednesday! Here is a drum machine made out of a Raspberry Pi, a bunch of solenoids, and a marvellously eclectic collection of junk.
