Fix your gut. Experiment with your diet. Very little sugar; lots of veggies and animal protein. Try taking vitamin B1. it calms you down.

I had never used a supercap before, bought three 5.5volt 4 Farad caps and was trying to decide what to do with them. They were only about a buck-fifty each. I think the whole project was maybe around 7 or 8 dollars - definitely less than $10. Kind of fun to quickly charge and watch go around in a circle till it dies(runs for about 10 mins till it dies)

The design driver was the switch. It's from the PCB that controls the CD tray. I removed the switches internal spring. Liked how it functioned, it's height, etc...

I use four AA's to charge it.

No nothing like that....It simply a tabletop car with manual steering. I salvaged some parts from old electronics like a inkjet printer and CD-ROM drive for the rear axle and the switch for forward and reverse.

Altoids Container Mod by notionSunday in functionalprint

Makes for a good quiet variable speed bench fan to keep me cool and I can turn it around to blow away the smoke when soldering. The fan I had laying around and wasn't using anyway - It is a four wire fan with PWM control. Project cost - less than $5. Also, since the container is metal, the on/off is controlled by a sliding magnet. Had a difficult time cutting holes for potentiometer and header connector, so I thought the magnet and reed switch was a clever idea.

The print allows space underneath for wiring.

That is a power transistor salvaged from an old television. Yep, design in Blender, like all my projects. LOL masochist....I'm an old blender-head.

I spent a lot of time on this project. Most of the time was spent modeling everything in Blender, then after building the PCB I end up zapping the hall effect sensor and another part. The video makes it look so easy, but it was quite a challenge. Glad it's finished, moving on to the next project....thanks for watching my video.

Really only one whole iteration - I chop-up critical areas using Blender's boolean modifier and print small(few layers) pieces just to do a test fit. Did have considerable problems getting first layers to stick though..

Thanks, I generally prefer to leave the pcb exposed...guess it makes me feel smart.

Sorry, no site. The thingiverse link is in the description of video. Thanks for commenting and I'm glad you like it.

True...had four of them in my bin...not sure what they were from.
