This is a list of Projects I would like to do... Look through them and talk to me about one if it looks interesting...
NEW Project Idea.... I Think Of All Kinds Of Crazy
I am Building and Moving to a new STEAM Clown's Site... So there is a new site... "Robot Club Projects That Need A Team"
Come talk to me about this project. This project is all about researching and then getting the hi temp oven I have working. Probably this is a "Melt Plastic 3D print or chipped plastic" and make coaster
Come talk to me about this project. I want to make a setup where I can take quality photos of an object, without shadows... like a bread board with components, but no shadows so have some LED lighting setup on a frame, with a camera.
This is a project where we could build a robot that could be controlled via a tele-presence... Talk to me about doing this... What might this project look like? Think building and controlling a "Mars Rover", or a camera or a camera on a robot that drove around campus... or really anything that you control over an app over the internet... like a remote candy or dog food dispenser... I want to build some robotic contraptions that are in our room but that can be controlled over the internet...
I don't have a lot on this kit, but it's a Cool use of IOT from the Year 2012. https://www.electricimp.com/ Not sure if they still have docs on line, but it would be cool to make something from this kit... that could go on our class display board.
Hyperformance GPS Receiver - Can you get this to talk to a Raspbery Pi or Arduino?
Sense Fire, Smoke and Security... Can you read the data from this device?
These are projects tht might need a a Microcontroller or Raspberry PI, so we can do them later in the year.
Make the plastic grinder... the idea is to produce a shredded plastic powder/grindings about the consistency of sawdust. Then use this in plastic/sand brick making mold. This is first a research project, but then a prototype build project with Metals technology to try building something that works, but can easily be replicated by DIY hobbyists.
The Search for a Plastic Grinder
I like the idea of using stacked sawblades - bought a bunch of 7.5 inch carbide saw blades from harbor freight stacked them together in a in closer that had holes in the bottom the size of the particle I wanted, feeding the foam in the top of the rotating blades, through a smaller opening, particles fell out the bottom. Worked best with a fine spray of water to keep the static electricity down. (maybe just grounding everything)
after we makes a plastic grinder... the idea is to produce a compression mold system that can make compressed plastic bricks from shredded plastic powder/grindings and sand.
