Toblerone Clock

Published: May 22, 2013 by K. E. Claytor

This is a 21 element clock made from Toblerone boxes. Powered by a Raspberry Pi, it has a twitter account that it monitors and then prints the tweets, character by character, on its clock face. It can also run a Game of Life simulation modified for a triangular grid.

You can get the source code off of GitHub.

Here’s a cool video of it in action:

House Temperature Logging

I was interested in temperature, humidity monitoring around the house to see if there were any trends, or if the basement was getting too humid.

Netrunner Laser-Cut Identities

I’ve been using the laser cutter/engraver to generate some Netrunner identities for some time, and finally got some that look really good.
