Next #Livestream I have some SQUiXL goodness to work on and share. Hope to see you in chat! youtube.com/live/GchXvYZ... #maker #projects

Next #Livestream - all maker, no politics.... hope to see you in the chat! youtube.com/live/U8XcjLh...

Hey folks - I'm streaming again tomorrow - w00p! youtube.com/live/dsxYoJ0... #maker #projects #hardware #coding #chat

Doing a bit of "file system" cleanup and discovered an old "maker progress" folder of mine and found an image of the very first PCB I designed (well, progress of it)... Oct 2017 #pcbdesign #eagle #regrets

Milling backplates for my new feeder rack! youtu.be/ISntkvShNRA #cnc #maker #Projects

I've been trying Gemini-Cli 2.5 in VSC and though it started out "ok" - the last few updates from Google have completely wrecked it - It now constantly gets stuck in "replace" loops & forgets context - Also fails to update the gemini_md file. #terrible #unusable

Finally doing some milling again - It's been a while, I hope I can remember how my Milo v1.5 works ;) #cnc #mill #project

Hey folks - due to some stupidity on behalf of the Australian & US governments + Australia Post, I am unable to ship products by post the US for the foreseeable future :( If you are in the US and are after any of my products, check my resellers list: unexpectedmaker.com#resellers

Next #LiveStream I'm going to see if I can fix my broken #RGB #Laser and get it running with chat again! youtube.com/live/eWBc18Y...

Next #LiveStream I'm going to waste my time on a PCB for the ESP32-C61 - because it's WAAAAAY too early ! youtube.com/live/Te_RIbi... I hope you can join me :) #ESP32C61 #PCBdesign #KiCAD

w00p! @pimoroni have my new Series[D] boards in stock, as well as a bunch of other UM products! shop.pimoroni.com/collections/... Please support them (and me) by plundering (legally) some of kit from them - thanks! #maker #makershelpingmakers #electronics

Next UM #livestream - not sure what I'm doing yet, but I'm sure it will be epic, or not :) youtube.com/live/RrBXN1x...

I've just released the Edge Carrier on my UM store... unexpectedmaker.com/shop.html#!/... KiCAD files are also available for this board - link in the product page. #maker #products

Join me on my next #LiveStream as I explain to you all how silly I can be sometimes, and try to design a solution... youtube.com/live/iriP0Y6... #maker #youtube #testjigs #3dprinting

w00! My new #SeriesD boards are now in stock and available from my Unexpected Maker store and on @lectronz unexpectedmaker.com lectronz.com/stores/unexp... #maker #esp32s3 #maker #magic

Finally able to share the secret thing I've been working on for so many months... Introducing my new range of Series[D] microcontroller boards. youtu.be/jcsWdfXvBvo #maker #electronics #products #showcase

Gonna try to work out how this #livestream thing works again... It's been so long, I'm sure I can't remember... I hope to see some of you in the chat! youtube.com/live/dJ53Czd... #maker #projects #chat #stuff

New Secret Product - First panel being assembled - From the Juki's point of view! youtu.be/3ADej1w_b4w #pcb #assembly #manufacturing #jukicam

I just finished adding a numeric only on-screen keyboard to #SQUiXL that auto switches to this layout based on the datatype of the ui_control - it's pretty snazzy! #maker #projects #coding #uix

A look at how the sausage, er, the #SQUiXL is made... low volume manufacturing at it's finest! youtu.be/CF7BVJy6LuU #maker #manufacturing #electronics

Next #livestream I'm taking a break from working on #SQUiXL by working on a 3D engine for #SQUiXL - It's logical, in a Seon kind of way! I hope to see you there... #maker #3d #coding #fun youtube.com/live/bgxoRAh...

I just pushed a new #SQUiXL firmware update that adds a bunch of cool things including user uploadable wallpaper. I'll be adding support for multiple wallpapers down the track, with random selection on bootup, but this is a great start! unexpectedmaker.com/squixl #maker #coding #uix

SQUiXL is *finally* back in stock! Go at ‘em if you have been waiting for one - or for ANOTHER one🤪 unexpectedmaker.com/squixl #maker #products #magical

Next #Livestream *may* be #SQUiXL-y, it "may" be battery #rant-y.. it also "may" be something else entirely, but what it wont be is - boring! I hope you can join... youtube.com/live/fOp9WO9... #maker #products #journey

RABBIT HOLE!!! I just wanted to screenshot some images to show firmware WIP, then thought I'd add some basic color adjustments and now #SQUiXL has a FULL ON tool called #screenie with white balance, levels, saturation and contrast controls... on screen & web based controls!

#SQUiXL batch 2 has sold out and pre-orders for batch 3 has commenced... FUN TIMES! I don't have an ETA on when batch 3 will ship yet as I'm waiting to hear back from my screen supplier early next week. #making #maker #things #for #makers

#SQUiXL is finally out - w00p! unexpectedmaker.com/squixl Batch 1 sold out during the stream, so I just opened up batch 2 for sale that will ship out by mid-next week. I'm only producing small batches right now as I get into a production rhythm. #Maker #Manufacturing #Mayhem

Hey everyone! Tomorrow is #SQUiXL launch day and I'm doing it realtime during my #livestream :) I hope you can join me.... youtube.com/live/5vpme34... #maker #product #release

OMG - I have a working onscreen KB in #SQUiXL ! Sure, it has no flashing cursor, or, well, any cursor yet, or uppercase or numbers... but all of the keys are mapped and actually work, with tap tap sounds :) #maker #coding #challenge

So this just happened.... #Maker #SQUiXL #MicroPython #RabbitHole

#SQUiXL production is slowly moving forward. I'm juggling a lot of things and there is a stack of 3D printing required, but only the one printer :( I hope to have pre-orders available sometime next week, and batch 1 ready to ship the week after. #maker #manufacturing #projects

Hey folks - Just a reminder that today is the last day to get 15% off all the goodies on my web store. Discount code: RNYWDVJK6NBK unexpectedmaker.com #makers #supporting #makers

I'm #SQUiXL-ing again this week on my #livestream... some F360 case design work, maybe some SQUiXL assembly - definitely lots's of talking ;) youtube.com/live/x9E0V8-... #maker #product #manufacturing #assembly

#SQUiXL supports an arbitrary number of SSID/PASS combos with auto connection attempts and saving of last connected, so you can easily move your SQUiXL between WiFi networks. Slowly ticking off all of the outstanding items on the list! #Maker #Projects #Code #Features

Experimenting with various MATTE PLA colors, trying to decide if I'll offer different case options or just stick with the MATTE charcoal black. If I offer case color options, I'll also offer matching Dock colors as well. Thoughts? #maker #productdesign #3DPrinting #manufacturing

This is currently happening.... Matt Red PLA, transparent PLA for the single layer of text - the final case design, I hope! #maker #ProductDesign #manufacturing #3DPrinting

Next #livestream I'm doing more #SQUiXL coding... I've been working on some cool stuff and this is "fun" coding, maybe, kinda... lolz Hope to see you ALL in the chat... youtube.com/live/0-2IQ6d... #maker #projects #coding #uiuxdesign

Next #livestream we're going to be living on the edge - it should be fun, I hope you can make it! youtube.com/live/b6rZmxC... #maker #prototype #pcbassembly #esp32

Hey everyone! I'm running a sale on my UM store until the end of April. unexpectedmaker.com If you know anyone that might be interested in my products, I'd really appreciate it if you could share this with them, thanks 💙 #maker #electronics #products #marketing

Hey everyone - I just wanted to point you all to a new Maker on the scene making AI related #electronics projects + 3D design and printing: www.youtube.com/@oldmanmaker Let's help him get past that 1000 sub mark folks! #maker #makerssupportingmakers #projects

OMG! Docking Confirmed! This is finally turning into a real thing :) A lot to show and do - hope to see you in the chat :) youtube.com/live/wh8-c0u... #maker #product #design #projects

I designed a "new thing" in #fusion360 - Guesses? #maker #prototype #3dprinting

Next #Livestream I'm going to be playing with adding an MQTT widget and I hope to get some auto sensor detection happening! I hope to see you all in the chat :) youtube.com/live/QMs0aeS... #maker #mqtt #sensors #project

The Arduino/PlatformIO framework I'm putting together for my #SqrDisplay project is really starting to come together nicely! I still have a lot more to add, but so far I'm loving it. #maker #esp32s3 #rgb #display #coding

I've been so focused on the next #SqrDisplay prototype HW and case design that I forgot to finish the #Edge3S Carrier reference PCB - well, I just did and I even got a proper EdgeS3 CAD model done for the M.2 connector footprint. #maker #pcbdesign #soon

If you appreciate my open source efforts, please support me on Github sponsors or Kofi: github.com/sponsors/bit... ko-fi.com/bitbank

New #SquareDisplay HW is done, with some surprising new changes and of course, a brand new "dockable" case design - Just need to design a dock for it :) #maker #fusion360 #kicad #product #design

#LiveStream tomorrow might be AMAZING and it might also be a fail - either way, I'm sure it will be super entertaining! youtube.com/live/z76WhPL... #maker #projects #UIX #coding

Something a bit different on my next #livestream - I hope to see you in the chat! youtube.com/live/hCR0JbX... #maker #fusion360 #product #design

I spent most of today designing a "thing" in #fusion360 that I first imagined in my head over 4 months ago - and it it's going to be FRICKEN amazeballz!!! 3D printing REV 1 as I type this, but I can't fully validate it until I get some new PCBs #impatient Teaser included ;)
