بركاته السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم والصلاة والسلام على أشرف المرسلين سيدنا ونبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه وسلم يا ربنا لك الحمد كما ينبغي لجلال وجهك معظيم سلطانك اللهم افتح علينا افتح العارفين اللهم علمنا ما ينفعنا وانفعنا بما علمتنا يا الله محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم قال أصحابي كان نجوم بأيه مؤتديتم وقتديتم سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was praising his companions and he said about them my companions are like the stars whichever of them you follow you will be rightly guided so our true happiness in this life is to have a good love relationship with الله سبحانه وتعالى with his حبيب سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and with the Holy Quran الله سبحانه وتعالى will put special light in our hearts when we love him this light will direct us during ease it will direct us during hardship it will make us follow the light follow the manners of the messenger of Allah سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and with this light love itself will have another meaning and last week we talked about one of the female companions of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so we want to love prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم the same way his companions loved him and focusing on the love of women around سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so we saw last week that Fatima bint Assad رضي الله عنه who was the wife of prophet Muhammad the wife of prophet Muhammad's uncle about whom سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said she is my mom after my mom and we saw how much she loved prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم we saw how much she she showed her love to him when he was living with them after the death of his grandfather and we know that his uncle brought him to live with him in his house and she was a true mom to him Fatima رضي الله عنه she showed how much she cared about سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم she showed how much she loved him صلى الله عليه وسلم and we talked a lot about her last week but in return to this love we saw how prophet Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم on her death but he gave them his shirt to be used as one piece of her shroud so we saw his love to her when he laid in her grave we saw how much he cried for her when she died and today we will talk about another companion about we will talk about the first female nurse the first female surgeon in Islam can you guess what her name is she is رفيدا الاسلامية رضي الله عنها so رفيدا accepted Islam early very early and she was one of the Ansar women who welcomed سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم upon his arrival to Medina which was her hometown and many accounts of her life describe her as notably kind, patient, empathetic all of which all of which shine through رفيدا رضي الله عنها her consistent acts of service so what's so special about رفيدا رضي الله عنها as I just mentioned she was the first nurse and the first surgeon in Islam she started her path in medicine by learning from and assisting her father whose name was سعد الاسلامي and her mother was a physician and she was specially known for stabilizing patients and ensuring their proper hygiene in preparation for more invasive procedures so رفيدا رضي الله عنها provided expert level care while continuously referring and burning her skills through hands on field work so she was very active actually on site so eventually رفيدا رضي الله عنها she courageously took her expertise of course to the battlefield so she learned all what she learned from her father who was a physician and she practiced all that she learned so she used to go with the army to the battlefield and she always cared for injured soldiers during the battles and she participated in many many battles including the battle of الخيبار and so on so let's take the battle of الخيبار where she shined on that day at the end of the battle رفيد الله عنها was so impressed with رفيدا's medical nursing work which he provided during that battle رفيد الله عنها assigned her a share of the bounty الением رفيدا رفيدا رفيدا رفيدا رفيدا سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم أظن أنك تفعل your job و سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم is watching you and he is happy with the way you are doing your work he saw that you are sincere he saw that you are careful about your time he saw that you are careful that all the money you are gaining all the salary everything is halal pure halal so this is how we should be faithful to our jobs to our work so what happened once the war and the battles came to an end she was permitted by سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم to maintain what was essentially a small clinic in a tent situated inside the Masjid النبوي imagine imagine how سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was happy with her that he gave her this honor so she was recognized and she was encouraged by him he allowed her to have the clinic inside the Masjid النبوي and this of course allowed her to continue providing the medical care and also to train more women as nurses this is a novel way of helping patients nurses doctors do the procedures that nurses follow up and their work is very highly so important it's so important so رفيد رضي الله عنهم trained women as nurses so she she's صلى الله عليه وسلم ماشاء الله ياني she was amazing she took very good care of the training and of the patients so رفيد رضي الله عنهم her unwavering devotion to caring for others is remarkable so this is an important message and we said from since last time that when we talked about these companions of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم when we recognize important aspects of them of their lives we are pointing these points out so that they would be as models for us so these incidents, these characteristics these remarkable things in them will be our inspiration to follow their footsteps so when she when رفيد رضي الله عنهم was training she was doing her amazing job but when she was not working as a nurse what did she do? she pursued social work and advocated for Muslims in need so she continuously served her community while serving her faith served the community what are we doing for our community? are we volunteering to help those responsible responsible people in our communities? are we offering to help them? are we offering to do anything for our community? what are we doing? how are we helping each others? how are we helping in providing the good example for everybody? so we have to continuously serve our community is there a Sunday school we have to help? is there any need for any type of volunteering work for our community centers? we have to help so we have we have to help our community and this in fact would be a true applying for the teachings of our faith we have to be like one body so we help each other now we have to stop here again for a second the aim of this series here is to show what these women around the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم what did they do so that their names is being kept and preserved and is mentioned now after 14 14 centuries what did they do? so the aim of this series is to urge women to be productive the same way that those women around صلى الله عليه وسلم were productive women have the capabilities to impact our world to help to care to serve and they can do so by imitating those female companions who had the blessings of being around صيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so he was he was صيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم looked at their work he admired their work and he helped them go on with their work so صيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم as we just mentioned had approved for رفيدة to have a clinic inside المسجد النبوي it was a way of helping a way of approving to to to to that so this to رفيدة that he is approving her work he loved what he what she what she did and he helped her so صلى الله عليه وسلم this this thing shows that women have to be productive women have to help women have to show their talents now women around the prophets صلى الله عليه وسلم they were remarkable and we want to be we want to be able to raise women who are like those examples we want to show we want to raise women who are helpful supportive creative who who fulfill the the orders and the legislations of our faith in all aspects so women are strong and this is what we need we need to raise a community we need to raise a group of women who who are good who whom سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم will be proud of on the day of judgment and we all know and we all feel so happy to talk about خديجة رطي الله عمه the mother of the believers سيد خديجة who was the wife of say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم she was the first Muslim woman to and the first human being to believe in say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so again now we moved from talking about رفيد رطي الله عمه to talking about the mother of the believers a say the خديجة رطي الله عمه so we saw how سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم admired the work of رفيد رطي الله عمه now we want to see what happened with خديجة رطي الله عمه and we all know the stories on and on and on everyone talked about خديجة رطي الله عمه everyone knows how خديجة رطي الله عمه supported say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم do you know how she first heard about say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم it's really very interesting story one day and that was of course before Islam a group of the novel women of قريش were gathered close to the kaba and they were chat chatting and they were talking and they saw someone coming closer to them and he he when he got to them he said to them او نسى او تيمى yeah نسى او تيمى all the ladies of تيمى the this is how he called them they are of تيمى there will be a profit coming soon and it is said that this profit will be will be from قريش from this tribe and this profit will be revealed to with the message of الله so any one of you who could who could get married to him let her do it so he wanted them he wanted at least one of them to get married to رفد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم when the lady has heard him some of them just laughed at him some of them just said bad words to him and some of them even took a stone pebbles some pebbles and threw them again at him except for one lady out of this group she was just listening to that man and she was thinking about that man and she was thinking about what he said and she did not do anything of what her friends did or what she did not do anything of what they did and that wise woman was خديجة رضي الله عنها at that day she did not know that she will have that honor and that blessing that she will be the wife of the Prophet she didn't know that she was known as very wise generous and novel she was married her her husband passed away she got married again and also got married her husband passed away so she was just taking care of her children and she was a very successful business woman and she would send caravans to Sham for trading so this business woman heard of someone who is very trustful very trustworthy and she hired him she said I heard about how honest you are and I want you to take my this caravan to Sham to for trading and she sent her boy Maysera to to be with سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم of course at that time she didn't know anything and she there wasn't a Prophet there was no one so Maysera رضي الله عن when he experienced the miracles that happened to say the Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم and why on their way a monk asked Maysera who is this person ما نزل تحت هذه الشجرتي إلا نبي none at all who who rested under this tree that was a good a good miracle a good thing that Maysera have seen and of course we know all the all the stories that maysera all the stories that happened along the way and everything that happened when along the way and how how they traded and they got so much Prophet and they went back so when they went back حديد رضي الله و عن her heard all the stories from Maysera and she was very happy and of course she told her her friend about about him and she said okay why you don't get married to him she said how can I get married to him she said okay I will send I will send that person so I will send to him and of course سبحان الله this marriage happened and we all know we all know how how happy سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was was with this marriage with حديد رضي الله و عن her and how happy she was with him and she got all his children رضي الله و عن so سبحان الله and we know how the جبريل عليه السلام started to to come to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and what happened to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم how he went back to to his wife and he was so trembling so so scared and she he told her what happened and she confirmed that that he is she says she said to him words very very confidently she said والله ما يوخزيك الله الله will not let you down so what happened to you is something great and she knew that she knew that there will be a prophet she had the feeling but she didn't say anything of course she she just comforted him and got him so calm and then she took him to work her her cousin and he told him that this is النهوس الأكبر this is the same way that الله will send to prophets so خديجة رضي الله و عنها was with سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم we know how much he suffered from creation how much she supported him and there were so many events that happened and خديجة رضي الله و عنها was witnessing these events one after the other and this is how she got she deserved the glad tiding from الله سبحانه وتعالى that he will be rewarded with with a great palace house in الجنة so سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ساد أميرت أن أبشر خديجة ببيت في الجنة من قصب لا صخب فيه ولا نصب سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم ساد أميرت أن أبشر خديجة رضي الله و عنها may Allah be pleased with her so what is the glad tidings about a palace of jewels in paradise wherein there would be no noise no toil or no fatigue she will be happy ever after she is the mother of the believers who supported سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم all the time all the time and we know how she was strong in faith how she was strong in determination that she is doing what pleases سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم she is doing what pleases الله سبحانك وتعالى and she supported سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم until until she passed away and that was that was very very sad time it happened at the same time after the death of of the uncle of of سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so the Muslims and Saeed محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم lost a very strong support to him his uncle and of course that was the outer support and when خديجة رضي الله عنه passed away she was the inner support for سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so خديجة رضي الله عنه was the mother of the believers she loved everyone she cared about everyone and she passed away and سبحان الله سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم said about her خير النساء في زبانها she was the best woman in her time and he also said خير النساء في الجنة the best woman in paradise they said also أملت بي is جفر بي الناس وصدقتني is جزبني الناس she believed in me when people did not believe in me and she she believed in me when when people belied me so she was hand in hand with سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and الله سبحانه و تعالى gave her gave سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم all his children from her all the six of them of course there is one from another one so this was سيدة خديجة رضي الله وعنه this is this is what we are mentioning now is just a few points about the life of سيدة خديجة but we are to think about these points and we are to think about the lessons that we can get from these points and of course خديجة رضي الله وعنه raised his children and what which children the the most honorable women in at that time زينا رضي الله وعنه فاطم رضي الله وعنه رقية رضي الله وعنه ومقلسون رضي الله وعنه so زينا رضي الله وعنه is the third person that the third woman whom we are going to talk about now so we talked about the mom now we will see a few points about the daughter who was raised by the great mom so talking about the mom and the daughter is what we want to focus on in in our in our life here this is what we want to focus on there should be great moms to raise great children this is what we want so raising as we mentioned as we mentioned last week we have to pay a lot of attention to raising the girls because they will be the moms of this of of of the generations so a mom always raise this the second generation and when she is a good person then this second generation would be good with the help of Allah and the the the help of Seid Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم when when following the rules of raising the children so now talking about the daughter of this great mom so we know that it wasn't easy for it wasn't an easy life that Seid Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم كان with his family ريش did their best to torture the Muslims and we know that زينب رضي الله وانه got married to someone whose name was Abul Haas and he was not a Muslim when there was no Islam but at that time when Seid Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم was revealed to then she had to leave her husband because he is not he is not a Muslim and he did not want to be a Muslim so سبحان الله she tried her best to call him to Islam to to make him abandoned worshiping the idols his cousin was Ottoman بلا افتان his other cousin was Az-Zubayr بن العوان and you know all these names are of the pioneers who became Muslims but he did not and he did not want to leave worshiping the idols so سبحان الله so what happened سبحان الله some some of these things got into her and she she felt that she has to leave him she cannot be with him so she was but she was still so faithful to him and it was Zainab at that time on the 14th year of the of the revelation the Muslims started started to see something that she she she saw that everyone everyone left even the daughters of Zainab Muhammad صلى الله عليه وسلم they left they left also رقية ومقلثون فاطمة they all left to مدينة and they left their their sisters Zainab in Makkah and she was alone she was very sad she the only thing she could do is that she was praying to Allah سبحانه وتعالى now it was the second year of hijrah that the battle of Badr happened and the husband Zainab's husband fought against the Muslims in in the the battle of Badr they fought against them and he was captured so when Zainab knew that she sent a abandoned that she had it was given to her from her mom that خديجة رضي الله عنها and it was given to her as a gift from her mom so when Zainab محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم was checking who are the captives and how their families are ransoming them so he saw the the pendant of his wife with the money that is being given to ransom the the captive and who was the captive it was his son in law and when he saw that pendant he was very he got the emotion he got emotional so he said to the Muslims if you want if you want to to free him and send her her money then that's fine if not it's it's okay they said oh yes Yaras و الله so they sent her husband back سبحان الله so many things years past and Zainab came to to Medina and أبو العاص came to Mecca سبحان الله until one day something happened and he was going with the with the group and taking the trading for the for the for Quraish and he was very successful and he was he didn't want to become يعني he didn't want to say at that time that he is a Muslim because he wanted to go back and give Quraish their money so they sent him he said when they when he came back to سيد محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم he said أشهد أن لا إله إلا الله وأشهد أن سيدنا محمد عبده ورسوله so I didn't want them to think that I will not give the money for them so I gave them the money and went out and أبو العاص became a Muslim and his wife his faithful wife was so happy that her husband became a Muslim so this is this is the love relationship between the wife and the husband it's a great bond that nothing can separate it now you see the the relationships nowadays between husbands and wife they are so shaky first of all they were based on falling in love falling falling going down but when the relationship between the husband and wife is based on the teachings of Islam the teachings of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم it raises up so again the lesson of this story is to to have a good relation with husband husband wife relationship is is a very important relationship with this relationship either you can help your children who are the next generation or you can destroy them if the if the marriage relationship between the husband and the wife is not good is not strong then the whole house will be shaky there won't be values there won't be teachings of Islam passed from one generation to the other the first generation where the mother and the father will not be as models for their children so it's it's way more beyond than just a husband wife relationship it's a very strong bond that is ground with the love of الله سبحانه وتعالى and the love of سيدنا محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم so that all this love is passed down to the children who will be raised to be strong Muslims who will be proud of being Muslims this is what say the خديجة رضي الله عنها this is how she raised her children and this is how how زينا رضي الله عنها how faithful she was to her husband how loving she was to her husband she saw her mom being the most loving the most caring to her husband and to the family and this is how she she followed the steps of her mom and we in turn want to follow the steps of our mother of believers say the خديجة رضي الله عنها so these are these three female companions around the Prophet of say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم and inshallah we will be able to follow them we will be able to follow their footsteps we will be able to to make them and we will we are proud of having them as our models إن شاء الله and until we meet next week إن شاء الله I pass my Salam and your Salam to our beloved Prophet say the محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم وسلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته

Yes, yes, yes. Kaluhe. Kaluhe is Kechi? I love love, I love love her recipes. They are so easy to follow and understand. And there's also another lady. It's her name, Kukimith Nimo. I have not heard of her. Okay, she's mostly on Instagram. So for her, I do her baking, like her cakes. I followed one of her recipes ya keki. Aa, na rengi. Okay, when you buy it up ya. Siyukunje. Ya. One of my favourites is, what's cooking kei. And my up, ya ni, uhu mnye yuhu ni confused kapsa is Miss Mandy. Miss Mandy is down there. Miss Mandy, if you watch me.  True, true.

As in, is of chaku loli pika usiku, janam, sapa e. So sa Leo, she's made something brand new and it's just magical. E to maim sifu. Ya, sana. Sorry, sorry. So let's go back to the hair. Okay, so the hair. Again, I really enjoy, like before I started my YouTube channel and making her content, I really enjoy watching people make their own hair and I think that's extreme talent again. Kwanza those people who braid themselves and then their lines ziko straight kabisa and they do their konros na ziko straight. And they just feel. Ya, I'm still working on that though but I really, it's so calming. Ya, so I, then I just started learning and teaching myself. So last year, I used to post IGTVs on my Instagram. I let ya. And then I started to watch it. Then I was like, you know what, I can actually do this and learn more. So I decided to tap it like I hear YouTube. So I'm still working on it. It's great. I like it. I did this. Oh, by yourself? Ya. Really? Ya. I want to ask the technique. It's a wig. Oh. Ya. I have questions but like. Me, the fathers of going, I give these people with the brady as in a look, I say, but I don't know if we can reach there. But it's. Sijui mi se mi aje. It's easy but it's not easy. And sometimes it's so frustrating while let me tell you. Like you try a tutorial. Kwanza. The one, this tutorial for Yajelia kusliked on your hair, it gets me crying every single time. Like why can't my hair just sliked down? Lala tupili skayli. And then other people do it so effortlessly. You're like. Is it my hair? Is it me? Is it the day? I have natural hair. And my head is just big as you can see from the forehead. The rest of it is also big. Managing natural hair is an extreme sport. I think I have muscles. From just trying to. I don't think I'm confident enough to document it for you. Thank you very much. All right. What else you got? Okay. I also enjoy fashion and I have an online business called Laxara where. Look at you. Where I sell bikinis. So that started two years ago. I was like. I really love shopping online again. That's something I haven't mentioned. So I was like. Since I know how to do this. Why don't I bring something that again I love and make it easily available for other people. And of course I'm planning to branch it out and expand it and sell not just bikinis. Yeah. And I like it. Just get me to just wear me. Uche uche nibambo. I like that. That's my brand. We're going to be friends. Yeah. We are going to be friends. What area do you think has the most traction? What do you think people know you most for? Is it your fashion? Is it your hair tutorials? Or is it the almost cooking part that you come in? What do you think people are more interested in? I think it's a blend of everything because I remember when I started my channel and then I'd made the banner. Okay. You know how to make it. Yeah. So like I have. I forgive you. Like I have written the titles or topics of what people should expect on my channel. So I got people asking me you haven't eaten cooking. You haven't eaten cooking. I was like, okay, ita kam tu but it's juli ni, but ita kam. So I feel like people relate with me to everything because I just put everything there. Juni kiaza nili kwa nafkiri ya. Okay, son can share YouTube channel. I want what one you do for one thing. But then I was like no, I don't just enjoy one thing and who will ask me if I put all of them. So it's my channel and it's my Instagram. So yeah. I like your attitude. I really do. How does your business side of fashion relate to everything else? Like I said, nili se manapenda fashion. So watcha ni yuze to generate money and income and of course I feel like with time the fashion aspect on YouTube will start working out because I do want to work with brands like fashion related brands like to do reviews. I love love those things. Like this is my new dress. I got it from, I love those things. Please send me things that I can say I love them. And get paid for that. Is it something, I ask because is it something maybe you want to translate into your hair journey. Do you want to, the owner of Marini, do you want to like give us products also that are from you for your type of hair because you are just to see what Africa is for, see, see. What are those letters and numbers all about? The texture is different, is that something you're interested in doing? Okay about the hair products well I haven't thought about it like that yet because I believe that's a lot of research and you know like coming up with a product is not easy like it's not just something you wake up it could take months or even years for you to formulate, no listen for you to formulate a formula and I'm kinda lazy sometimes. So with the hair I would love, I would love love love to have a wig shop. Yeah I would love to have a wig shop and I'm saving my money for that hopefully in the next one or two years. And you're focused? Thank you. I don't think I'm focused. I don't think I'm going to struggle but thank you. You're very focused. You're on the right. I think you're doing amazing things especially at the time.

shilling and how it's gonna be in the next five years like it's so much fun but it's so like you need to read but it's not but if you have a unit you will pass please what's going on and then statistics you just hear of me we went to that was there but it dropped like if you have a unit Greek terms CG prove this formula and then the lecturer doesn't even explain well what's going on please but to lihaq too to survive it's fun if you're doing statistics it's actually fun and pays well we'll get a job aponi kunawe kwa pays well but I've never had someone express themselves so wonderfully

don't think I don't think I don't know clearly I am the only one who is not in this WhatsApp group I have not divorced a long time ago math is easy it's not you just need to practice it's literally

in projects management that were in fully covered in statistics so again I'll have to study that so I'm still thinking about it but if honestly if like an opportunity to do projects management presented itself right now I would take it it's really really fun you don't get to do okay I realize I don't like doing the same thing like you get like those structural jobs where we are doing this today tomorrow we are doing that like with projects management today you'll get a different project after a week it's another project you learn different things from other people and I like that and

Excellent. Hey, what's up, folks? Welcome back to another 3D Hangouts. My name is Noah Ruiz. I'm a designer here at Adafruit. Join me every week. This is my brother Pedro. Hello. Good morning everybody. My name is Pedro. I was creative tech here at Adafruit. Every week we're here to share 3D-print-to-projects feature electronics from Adafruit. That is right. This is the show we combine 3D printing and DIY electronics to make inspirational projects. Hello, everybody. Welcome to episode 420. Whoa. It is November 1st, 2023. Welcome, everybody. We are hanging out in the Discord chat room. If you'd like to join the Discord chat room, you can use our link at the top here, discord.gg slash Adafruit. We'll take a moment to welcome everybody. We started a little bit late because we were chatting it up, but we are here and we are streaming on all the networks this week. All of the things got fixed, I suppose. So Facebook, LinkedIn, YouTube, Twitch, and X, formerly known as Twitter. Things got fixed, I suppose. Facebook, LinkedIn. That's me. You're watching me. Make sure that all the streams are going. Looks like StreamYard still calls Twitter Twitter, which is kind of funny. It's going to take maybe a couple of years for the rest of social to embrace the new name change. But that's what happens when you change your name. All right. I'm going to give a shout out to Du Wester hanging out. Rozen hanging out in the chat rooms. Hello. And everybody watching on all the YouTube channels, feel free to comment. We can bring chats in and answer chats and all the channels. At least the ones that are the main three, Twitch, Facebook, and YouTube. So good morning. Anything else, Pedro, before I jump into the free stuff? No, just getting the links for the coupon code this week. All right. We'll jump right in. Adafruit.com slash for free. That's where you'll find the details of the freebies this week. $99 a month. We'll get you a free PCB coaster with a golden Adafruit logo. Orders that are $149 or more, you'll get the free PCB coaster. Plus an Adafruit KB2040. That's a lovely deaf board with the RP2040 chip. For orders that are $199 or more, you get the KB2040 deaf board, the PCB coaster, and free UPS ground shipping for continental U.S. only.  These get automatically added to your order as the tiers build up. And on top of that, you can get our coupon code for the next 24 hours. It's good for all of November 1. It is noodles. We have two noodle projects, prototype projects that we are working on. So that's the coupon code, noodles. Because who doesn't like a good noodle? All right. And that is the freebies. Yay. All right. This week, Pedro, we're catching up on projects you're working on. Quality cases for all of the various displays. And while we're working on that, I'm working on some holiday noodle projects, working on the Learn Guide. Couldn't quite get it done this week. So we do a roundup video of holiday-inspired projects. We have so many beautiful projects that why not make a video highlighting the top, I don't know, five? Was it five projects or so? I think it was six. Six projects. So on YouTube and all the other socials, you have a nice video with... Yep. You can mute it. You want me to mute it? You can mute it. All right. I got it. Yeah. So this is fun. We've done so many projects that I love these videos because they remind me of what we've done. So this is a countdown clock using CircuitBython and the MAG tag. It's an e-ink display. I think it's running an ESP32. So it's Wi-Fi enabled. And it uses Adafruit.io or something or something. There's a Learn Guide on it. But we 3D printed this cool little kind of stand that's very festive. Is it playing? Yes, it's playing. Yep. All right. That's what I thought it was. It was really cool. LED acrylic, edge layer. Acrylic. Laser cut... Laser cutters are becoming more accessible. You can get one at Michaels, for example. That's an arts and crafts store here in the States. And you can use acrylic... The Glowforge. I don't know. One of the Glowforges are at Michaels. Oh, it's already there? Oh. Yeah, it's been there. I forgot. For I think half a year, maybe more. There's a slew of other, you know, affordable laser cutters. I use the CNC mill because Adafruit said I should get one. I got one back in the day when it was other. We used to sell them too. Right. And we used to sell them. Exactly. We used them in-house for creating prototype PCBs. I like to use it for cutting acrylic. So I've seen a couple of folks actually make this project with their own laser cutters and their own bandsaw cut. Yeah, their own designs. So it's just a cool fact to create... A cool stand, really, for pieces of acrylic that you can edge cut. Yeah. Edge layer. Certified Hong Kong code to do each individual little light up. Yeah. Oh, this was cool. So this was inspired by Rez, who is an electronics musician. And she has these amazing LED PCB eyes, glasses that she wears when she performs. And we got inspired to recreate that. And we have these PCBs that already have these neopixels, these diffuse neopixels. And so all they did was created a frame. And I think they used the itsy bitsy and a lipo battery to make these wearable. And you can see through them, actually, which is kind of cool. And it's a code by Phil B. This is like a good mix of like, I still love Halloween, but it's Christmas now. So it's using a cricket and a motor. Oh, yeah, the PR sensor. The DC motor and that wheel for robots is added on there to create this nice little motion activated gift box, which is a nice little... Yeah, it's like a prank. Nice little prank. Yeah, it's inspired by the Nightmare Before Christmas. Yeah, the box is... This press is trying to eat you. Hanukkah, this is a menorah. It's got the eight. Yes. Yeah, eight. No, nine. No, eight. Eight candles. And the middle one lights the candles. Press the button and it lights up the candle. So it uses neopixel buttons and this nice 3D printed menorah. I think it's a cutie pie. Yeah, this one's been... Lamar has had this on the list for quite a while because she said a lot of the ones that are out there don't actually do this functionality, right? Right. They all just light up and they don't actually work. Like a rumor is supposed to be lit on each night, Hanukkah. Yeah. The correct order meaning that the first one is already lit. I'm guessing the other ones didn't do that. Right, yeah. In order... Yeah, the order goes from right to left and then the middle one is used to light all the other ones. Functionally... It's got some logic in there, yeah. It's all done in CircuitPython. Is a Liz Clark collab. Another... Is this a Cricut project too, I think? This one is a Cricut project made in MakeCode. It is a Grinch fireplace. So there is this cardboard with the tinfoil intact as the conductor. I think it's either tinfoil or copper tape. Oh, no, I think you're right. Copper tape, yeah. So as soon as somebody steps on the rug, it'll activate the Grinch to come down. So Cricut, there's a motor on there. That's making it move up and down as it gets activated. And then we have some Neopixel LEDs to provide the flame here for the fire. Yeah, it's pretty cool. Yeah, you can do so much stuff with the Cricut and you can have sound effects as well if you want to. Yeah, there's sound effects on here.  Yeah. And again, yeah, MakeCode. So this was all done in a web browser. Completely editable. All the code blocks are still there. They still work. So if you want to build your own, just get crafty with the fireplace. Yeah, I think you have 3D printed mounts for the various, the motor and the holder for the paper. So the Grinch is actually a paper cutout. I think it's maybe done with the Cricut. Cricut, yeah, Cricut, Cricut. Yeah, because Cricut is the dev board and Cricut is the cutting plotter. Yeah, so it's pretty cool. It's completely customizable and it's just a nice idea to like make it interactive kind of faux decor, you know. Yeah, super fun building this one. Yeah, and that's pretty much it for this one. Since, of course, we're releasing this on November 1st. So you have plenty of time to get these done. Yeah, I was talking to our neighbor, Rick, that's like marketing for public. He's like, man, we're already on the end of January for planning. This year's over for us. Oh, yeah. Well, yeah, when you're doing any type of business stuff. Marketing stuff. You have to be two months ahead. You're on the next, you're on the next one already. Yeah, it's very business-facing stuff has to think about it. That's probably why I'm working on this. Yeah. Because it takes a lot of time to develop and iterate.  Oh my god, a Grinch, let me. Go to your mama.  All right. That's great. All right. So very good choice of projects, Pedro. Yeah, I had time to do it somehow. Because we have two months of having to post these. So I want to get old. So there's a bunch I didn't add on there for time wise as well. Yeah. Looks like the Mac tags are out of stock. Oh, no, don't tell me. In the crickets are in stock for the Circuit Playground Express. So that's good. Yeah, we're slowly getting the AMD, the Atmel chips back in the stock. So bear with us as we get those back. We recently got the Monster Mask and the Halloween M4s back, Feather M4s. And we'll slowly trickle those out to the rest of the products. But you could always substitute them for an RP2040, right? If there is an available chip. So with that, I'll talk about my LED noodle tree. Cool, real quick. I've been doing this all week. Oh, real quick. The links to all those. I just made the blog post live earlier. So you can see all the links to every project that was in the video. Yay. All right. So LED noodles are super cool. I came up with this 3D printed design of a tree kind of thing. There are eight coils that wrap around and spiral into this tree shape. They taper and then they have these little channels that you can press fit these LED noodles into. So on the bottom here, I have a QT Pi RP2040 and the AW9523 LED driver. It's a STEMMA QT board. So I literally just connect it to the QT Pi because QT Pi has a STEMMA QT port. Really easy to put that together. And then the LED noodles are wired into the pins on the AW9523 LED driver. You don't need resistors. We're still working on the code for it. But this is the demo code that you can use that uses PWM to fade the LED noodles in and out. So you kind of get this cool kind of effect where they're fading in and out. That's pretty much it. I wanted to create a cool new type of LED tree. I've done some with the circuit playground and Neopixels. This time around, I want to use the LED noodles because they're very unique in the sense that you can mold them and press fit them into channels to make three-dimensional shapes. Normally, I've done flat signs last year or maybe two years ago now. I've done a snowflake that was powered off a coin cell. I wanted to take that concept but make it 3D-ified. So I figured using coils to create this spiral LED tree was a kind of a neat idea. There's a cover here that has like a little snowflake in print. And then the base here has a little PCB mount for the QTPI and the LED driver. You can see all the wires there. You do need a lot of wires for it because there's eight of them. But they all solder into the LED driver pretty easily. And then I have here are the voltage wires. You can see the red and then I have like a heat shrink tubing just like the whole heat shrink tubing to keep them bundled up. Yeah, I just figured that'd be an easy way to kind of conceal it a little bit. I probably could have used white wire because then it would have looked a little bit more interesting. But I'm so prototyping it. You have a little tree topper here that's just two halves that are glued together for the little Adafruit star and then this piece here. So it all prints without any supports. You'll want to use transparent, clear PLA filament for this and then whatever shiny filament for the bottom pieces. But it's all powered off the USB-C because the QTPI is USB-C. No need for a battery because it's supposed to be like a desktop kind of tree. Yeah, I just thought it was a cool idea because I have seen a lot of LED noodle projects, but not ones that are really 3D. So that was the whole goal here. And then of course, using circuit Python to do the fade animation for the LEDs. There's a mix of two colors. We got red and green, although the green is showing up kind of yellow just because it's more of like a lime green. But we have pink, blue, warm white, red, I think I said. And there's, I'll show you the product page, but there's a bunch of colors that you can choose from. They're not individually addressable LEDs. The whole noodle is addressable with the LED driver. So the whole noodle will fade in and out. But you could program, you know, blankings and a combination of fading and blinking if you want. Or you can individually say like, I only want the red ones to blink and then I want the green ones to blink. You could do that too, which might be a fun thing. But yeah, I've been working on this, I think for a couple of weeks now, because making the coil pattern and then making it so that it prints without like failure was the thing. But I think I finally got a good recipe for a good design so that folks can print it. It's not too fragile. It's actually kind of nice. Yeah, the structure is very, it's not flimsy at all. Yeah, there's like a note infill. It's all walls, perimeter. So yeah, it's, it's pretty nice. Peter, you got one. Yeah, it's pretty dang solid. Yeah, it's pretty solid. And the, the second, so there's eight total LEDs. And then on the inside you have another pair so that, so that you can actually go and weave in and out of them. So that was like a learning thing too. It was like, originally it was just going to be four LED noodles. With like the support structure being the alternating coils. But then I figured why not just cut out a groove so I can stick, stick another set of four LED noodles. And then I ended up making this like so much more worth it because like you get this really nice light, really nice effect, I think. Yeah, so that yeah, the only thing we're missing is it being on a turntable. Right and spinning. Maybe with one of those slip, slip rings. Maybe I would, I would just put it on the bottom base of it. So you don't have to do any of that. Right. Just getting this tire. Yeah. Yeah, maybe hide a USB battery bank in there somehow. That's the only other thing that's like going to wrap around is the USB cable. But yeah, we have all the noodles in stock and I'm working on the learn guide. Just type in noodles. Get the whole color profile. Actually forgot we had pink. So if you want a pink tree, Barbie pink, we got that. And then the product page is nice because you can switch between the colors here with this nice and then the size. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You see the green isn't really as green because that's just the way it is. So yeah, that's why it's yellow. Yeah. Yellowish. Yeah. The blue might be cool for the tree. But I figured red and green is very kind of Christmasy. So I went with those. Yeah. I wonder what's the difference between the yellow and the warm white? I guess just a little bit more yellow. It's like a peach. Really? But that's just the camera. Yeah, it's weird with the camera. So any hoodle, all of the LED noodles are in stock, right? Yeah. In stock, greens in stock, reds in stock. So yep, pretty cool. Nice. And that is the LED noodle tree. We'll have a learn guide and video I think next week. We got a rush to get. Well, you already have your Christmas tree set up. So I'm leaning on you to get. Oh yeah, I'll get the hair and stuff. Yeah, we're going to set up our tree, I think, this weekend so we can get some shots. But yeah, let's get it early because that already gets these projects started early. Yeah, we never finish it. If you start. And if it's folks time, you know, you have all of November to like print it out and like figure out if you actually want to build it. Do you want to create your own animations? And do you want to modify it? You definitely will be able to modify it. Pretty cool. All right, quiet in the chat rooms. I think everybody's like over from all the candy from last night because. Even the kids are probably hung over too. Everybody woke up late. I know I did just a little late. But we're here now. All right, all the links to the LED driver and the noodles and the cutie pie. So good products. All right, continuing on with what are we prototyping? We got the next prototype as well. We got a bunch of these screens in now. The work begins with getting all the coding to get in and all of the cases to fit. So right now I am working on this four inch round display, which is take it out. Take a look at it. It is not really round. It's more like an ellipse or oval. The screen on where you actually see all the content is a circle. But the plate that the display is on is not. So a little bit challenging that you can see here with the way that this the mount for the qualia board on here, which we're using for all of the displays now will be powered by the qualia. This one has the S3 on it. And see here the mount for it. It's a little weird. You get like these weirdo. You can't really see here. I'll show it in the sketch when we talk about the project when it's released. And then the shape like to have where the ribbon cable connects the PCB on. Oh, yeah. It's a good channel there. Yes. We have a channel for that. And there's like you can see here the just the weirdness and the way that it's sort of like a squished ball from the sides. So it's trying to get that tightened up. So it's like, you know, where it's not so tight where you're like, you know, accidentally breaking your display by inserting it. So it's a little straight out. It's the tiny bit as I close up the tolerances for that.  I forgot the size of this one. 3.4, 2.4. The rectangular one or the square one. Yeah, three something. Yeah. 3.4, 3.5. Let me look. So it's going to. 3.4. Yes, 3.4. I think I'm going to do like the ninja flex buttons for this. Just so I don't have to keep messing with trying to have this even thinner or having like chamfers where because it's how close they are to each other. It's just going to eliminate or not work at all. So I think I'm going to go with the the route of having a like a strip of three of ninja flex. So each button can be pushed in that way. Maybe like an overlay that goes over it or inserted somehow. I'll figure it out. Might have to push this back up or something, something for this guy. The way I'm going to cut in. I'm not too sure. So it's what have gives you access to buttons, right? The A011 or is that for sensors? Um, I think you do a button or two. So I'll probably wire that and it'll come out of the back or something. But I will try to go in there and do the same thing where I'm sort of cutting in. Like yeah, we can have access to it. I shall see. Yeah, it's okay if you don't. Yeah, because I'm trying to think like the use case of what this is going to be for. So if you don't even need a button, then yeah, if you need it, you do need a USB. So yes, that is something I thought about. So having maybe the right angle adapters that we have. So it's pointing up. So you plug it in like that, like an Apple mouse, which actually would work. Since I'm thinking it'll be on its side like that. So it'll point outwards with the cable and that should work. So yeah, the only thing left is getting the lid designs on there, getting the code to work. There was like a bug with the chrome in terms of flashing the bootloader on there. But that should get worked out soon. So yeah, that's what I'm working on now. Just getting the lids and any other mounting geometries figured out. Cool. All right. And if folks want the display, I'll pop in a link to the square one. And the round one, because they are in stack. Yay. Yeah. So this is the touchscreen one. I think right away off my top of the head use case with this one would be the demo that Lamar and Melissa have shown off. Or it's just, you know, the little drawing demo. Absolutely perfect for the kids. Definitely love that. And maybe another etch-a-skitch around printed in red with the handles on the side. I don't know. Sorry. I was gathering links. Yeah. This could be a good clock. I think that's what we're going to work on is like a log clock. Yeah. Well, Vince just posted in the chat room here in the discord. That looks pretty cool. Let's see. Ooh. That is a really nice one. Yeah. With the tilt clock. Yeah. That's pretty cool. Yeah. Whether it plays, that'll look pretty cool. Yeah. I'm going to have to incorporate that. Yeah. It's a cool idea because then you can mount the, we do have a ribbon cable extension cables. So we can use that to like, you know, offset the board a little bit, the quality of board. I mean, looking at the thickness of that, it looks thicker than my case. It all fits in there. But if, yeah, we want access to the extra buttons and yeah. Yeah. You'll want to have like a base like that. So, okay. And that's what I got. All right. Yep. We'll show more next week. I have a quick one, a quick project, since it is, since our coupon code is noodles. We have these small, shorter noodles. And I wanted to come up with a 3D printed ornament using them. So I came up with this thing. It's a little bell shape. And it has a custom case for holding a CR2032 coin cell battery, which is just enough voltage to power one of these little guys.  It's blinking. Nice. There it is. I have to like, press these together. I have a little bit of solid core wire that like wrap around the inside of the case because there's like a little channel for it. So that's kind of a neat way to create like a really like slim, low profile coin cell holder, because we have coin cell holders with built-in switches, but they're, you know, one color, fairly big. And they're not the right shape, I think, for like a little elegant ornament like this. So I posted on socials and folks are submitting different ornament shape ideas. I think the winner is, of course, the Adafruit Star. I'll have to use a bigger one, the bigger noodle, the longer noodle. And then of course, the pickle, the Christmas pickle. So I'll have that in green. But I thought it was a cool idea to create a custom coin cell holder that's like complimenting the design of the ornament. So again, this is a bell shape if you haven't figured it out.  So it's very kind of modular in the sense that you can take the noodle out if you need to. And it's easy to swap out the battery. And yeah, I'll come up with some more fun shapes. I think the pickle will be a really popular one. Yeah, we'll have a pickle because it's apparently a thing. Yeah, the pickles everywhere. Yeah, the pickles are everywhere. So an LED noodle pickle in the works, just got to do it. So anyway, coupon code, noodles. Get your noodles. Light them up. Create some fun ornaments. Very cool question on Discord. MMU man is asking if you can use two coin cells in series for those that are getting empty on power just so you can use them all up? I think so. Yeah, I think you could. I think we have a battery holder that has two. Yes, I think I used that one for the LED noodle snowflake from last year. I think you're right. Yeah, we have a different one. We have a transparent one. Yeah, we have a black one. Let me see here. Oh, awesome. Thanks to Country of Boom for $9 Super Chat. Oh, wow. Yeah, very nice. Thank you, Country of Boom. Yeah, so the LED noodle snowflake uses the two CR10 coin cell holder. So, yeah, this is good for powering up to four because it's six volts. So, yeah, you can definitely double up. What do they use online? Yeah, but as you can see, they're pretty bulky, I think. Oh, yeah.  I guess you can spray paint it or something. But it looks like we have another one here that's good. I used this translucent one too. Oh, no, this is just one now. Oh, right. I actually have not seen this one before. Have you seen this one before? Yeah, I got it. I grabbed all of them. The Ultra Hand. I could probably recreate this design so I can be clear and just reuse the guts, you know, the little spring contacts. Just because that's kind of what I created. Like I created my own spring contact. I think the easier route is just make a cover case like I did. So you're just covering it. Yeah, I think it's bulky. You remember, it's supposed to be a little bit bulky. Yeah, there you go. But you can do like 0.8 for the wall thickness. Yeah, here's a clear one that's nice. That's the one I used. Yeah, it's just single. Yeah, yeah, I guess that's kind of nice. Well, anyway, you can 3D print one and use solid core. Yeah, so all sorts of options. All right, I'll consider that one for maybe the pickle because it is kind of involved to like create your own spring contact with solid core. Yeah, I do have a channel in the print that allows you to like kind of wrap it around in there. The spring contact. We I think also sell parts for the coin cell. So just the individual parts. I'm not mistaken. You could also use copper tape, I guess, if you want to really make it integrated. But having the integrated slide switch is like definitely a nice touch because now you don't have to like take the coin cell out. Or maybe I'm thinking of the nine volt where it's just the connector going out to a barrel. Oh yeah, that is right. Yeah, the nine volt for the ultra hand for sure. He's the nine volt. Yeah. Yep. Okay, are we ready for shop talk? Shop talk the You ready to make it there now? No, shop talk is the Fusion 360. Oh god, we're going to be in here the whole show. No, I mean we have a half an hour, so I'll try to be quick. I'll just show kind of like the finished version of it. So let me share my entire screen. Going to tunnel view. So Fusion 360 got an update, I think yesterday, where they have this new feature called fasteners. So they have an integrated way to apply fasteners. To your mechanical designs. One caveat though, you'll need to you can only access the feature through designs that are created with the teams hub. That's the new kind of data storage for your Fusion 360 models. They have a single user storage and then they have a teams hub, which allows you to share and collaborate your design. So that's just one thing I had to reach out to the support team because I wasn't able to get that feature, but it's super easy to create a team hub. You just click one migrate button and it transfers all your files over to a team hub. And then you can have a lot easier sharing abilities with it. So under the insert menu, they have this thing called insert fastener. This is what the UI looks like for it. It's basically a better way to create screws than having to use the McMaster plugin that's built-in to Fusion, which is what I use a lot of the times, but it's very involved. You have to like, once you get your screw, then you have to use like the pattern tool to make multiple copies. And then you would use a joint to apply them to every individual hole. This is a kind of like a smart fastener thing where you add one screw, it looks at the body and it'll add two screws. So let me see if I can do a quick demo. I'm going to add four screws to this PCB here. This is the LED driver that we're using in the tree. So I'll type in insert fastener. It has a built-in search, so I can say I want M25 screws. So I'll type that in, it will filter out all of the screws. So it's not just screws, it's washers, hex nuts, that sort of thing. And then here are all the available screws. They have Phillips, countersunk, flathead, roundhead, hex bolts, all those fun things. So let me see. I'll just do a regular machine screw, maybe this one. And then it's not working. The whole selected first? Yeah. Maybe? But the idea is that you get this little ghosted preview and then you're supposed to be able to roll over the hole. I wish that option was right in that modal right there. So let me try selecting where I want it first. And then this is just new, so I imagine they're going to have some updates to it. Let me try M25 screw again. We'll do the countersink, flathead for now. Yeah, it doesn't seem to be. Hold down shift while you're rolling over it. I'm holding down shift. Yeah, it's still, I guess, a little bit. It could be also because I'm sharing my screen. Maybe the floaty windows. It worked when we were recording. Yeah, let me see. What did you select? Or the solid? Well, let me just show, where's my color? There it is. Yeah, because when you did it over there, that's a solid. In the timeline, you get your insert fashion, insert fastener feature. You can right click and you can say edit fastener. And then here is where you can kind of see what it is. So if you're using the McMaster insert, once you set it, that's it. You can't change it. Here, you can change it dynamically. So it's very parametric in the sense that I added one thing and it knows that, oh, I'm going to add four of them. And then you can change here the length if it's not long enough. Or you can use these arrows to dynamically edit the size or the length of your screw. And it's just a lot faster. So if you have a really heavy mechanical design that's super reliant on screws, a good example would be the synth guitar. It had a lot of screws. This just helps you figure out how many screws, what sizes of screws, and then the type of screw.  And then you'd be able to manage it much better. And your timeline is way cleaner because in that example I just said the guitar, my timeline is filled with all of these screws and joints. So this really bypasses all that and just cleans it up, makes it more efficient. It's a lot faster. And it's parametric. So that is super awesome when it works. Of course, live demos tend to be a little flaky. I mean, with this one again, it's a solid, not a the PCB board. Maybe that's what the issue is. The thing is that it's supposed to work across anything. So you're not supposed to even have to select anything first. Let's say I wanted to add some nuts, I guess, M3 nut. Let's see what happens. Oh, cool. Cap nuts and eye nuts. Ooh, what's an eye nut? Yeah, you can see here how like now I can select things. Now it's working. So it's supposed to work with any kind of whole geometry. So click on that. And it automatically sizes it. You see how it says auto M8? But that's because I selected this weird eye nut. So let me pick a regular hex nut here. There you go. You see how it automatically sees it? So I just rolled over it and it knows it's an M3. You can change the material if you want. I guess this is like if you wanted to create a bomb, a build of materials, for a real product that you're manufacturing, you'll be able to generate a list of exactly the screws hardware that you need for your product. And that just saves you a lot of time. And it's parametric. So click, click, create and continue. It gets added in your timeline. And then you can modify if you ever need to. Obviously nuts wouldn't go there, but it's just for this demo. It could. You could project the hex off of that into that if you wanted to do it a countersunk. Right. Yeah. And it's nice. So there's a new folder called fasteners. And you can see that they're all added there. So that's nice. So it's doing a lot of smarts behind the scenes. That's how I'm going to use it. Yeah, it's a verify lengths to project the cutouts for countersink screws. Yeah, I just like that. I don't have to create joints for every screw now, because that's how I was doing it before with the McMaster thing. Yeah. So hopefully you get some updates as you saw, it was a little buggy, but that's because like version zero. Right. So, yeah, so that is my shop. That we don't have a 40 core M3 Mac yet. All right. Not yet. Not yet. That is this week's shop talk. So I have any questions? Oh, I moved over when I need to move back. See, I posted links to the parts on a good hub. So yes, all the parts that are there. Yeah. The quality board is there. Let's focus on that. Yep. That's what I used to project. Lower layer. Yep. And the right layer is on there too.  Walkthroughs. Yeah. I think it is now time for community makes. Yay. Oh, real quick. Someone in the discourse saying, are you thinking of the jewel thief? Yeah, that would be a good jewel thief. Huh. You remember that jewel? I don't know. What is the thing?  So battery. I don't know. That was that. Yeah. I remember the name. I can't recall what it looked like actually. All right. This week's time lapse Tuesday, Community Makes is this really cool snake dragon using that tricolor neon filament this week. And it looks pretty cool. The way that the color changes obviously the only downside with the way it took the time lapses just so much stringing on it. Yeah. I tried another one with different settings and it came out. I think worse. So oh my gosh. Yeah, it's all over. You can see where I had to do so much cleanup on it. Oh man. But the colors look pretty cool. Even without a time lapse, it's still stringing. I didn't do it without a time lapse. Oh, maybe I could save it. Yeah, I see. So I just ran out of time. Okay. Well, it's a cool articulated dragon snake. Let me share my screen. This is a Colt 3D designed by designer bold on Colt 3D. Let me do this. There we go. I gotta do that. Oh man, I should have done that with the thumbnail. Oh, yeah. Yeah, you can have it stand up in this cool camera. And I guess I can wrap around your arm. These are really fantastic photos. This looks like it was printed in some of that silky filament. It's very shiny. It is a paid design. I think it's about $3, maybe $2. It's in euros, and I could be wrong with the conversion. Oh, let me go to in. Well, I'm just gonna pull from the side. There it is, USD. Yeah, so I'm changing it to US dollars. Wait, where? Up here at the top, there's like a... Oh, okay. You can do ruble. You can do all the monies. Nice. So it's $2.51 USD, or as you saw in pounds or euros, it was $2.71, I think. So it's a paid design, but that's because it's really nice. Again, the designer is bold on cold 3D. It's a no support, all-in-one print, right? No supports required. What I like is that it kind of looks like a... Oh, those things called to the tree. Garland? Garland. Yeah, for your holiday, for your Halloween tree. Put it on Grandma's tree. Wow, that's a snag in the house. Poor Grandma. I think that's a tradition. Would you recommend the filament? Pindra, that's from Zyro, I think. Yeah, yeah, if you're not doing time-lapse where your head is moving out of the way for like 10 seconds of a long exposure. Long exposure shot that you need. And yeah, this is excellent. It is the mat filament, so it is a little bit like, a bit more flexible. It's not brittle, but it is like softer, definitely softer. The regular PLA. The tri-color change thing is pretty dang cool. Yeah, I got myself that spool of the last week you printed it. I have here my little tree topper part. This is a little bit different. I don't know the color name. It's on Amazon, but it's from the vaccine. They come in like three different. They have like a gray, this one and the neon one. Yeah, there you go. That's a rosy something. Matt Rose. Yeah, that's it. Matt Rose. So they have Matt Rose, the neon and the gray, and it's from Zyro, I think. Yeah, I like it. They're cool. I left it in the printer to keep printing stuff. Yeah, I'm going to print some cases and see what they look like. Here is the Amazon link, and there are the three. I guess there's four. There's a matte colorful mist as well, which is like a nice pastel tri-color. But yeah, the idea is that you have three colors. The gray ones kind of need three shades of gray. It's PLA. And I want to try the gray. Yeah, this is great because if you're doing something that looks singular, this gives it a lot of shade of color. I don't know. Yeah, it's perfect for simple designs. Vince said it'd be great for the circular case. Yeah, because at different angles the color changes, so it's pretty cool. Yeah, and Zyro is the manufacturer. So good stuff. All right, that is this week's Time Ops Tuesday, long-winded. Are we ready for community makes? Yeah, all right, starting off with Sol Enterprises. They posted up a make of the heat set insert press. They said a fun little afternoon project, enjoyed printing and putting the insert press together, experienced some wobble, but with proper torque, most of the play was taken out. They printed their own controller board for their Radio Shack soldering iron, but yeah, it's a very open design so folks can create their own controller boards, bases, all sorts of things, lots of mods are ready for it, so it looks really nice. And they're using a piece of wood for the base there, which is a good choice. Okay, after that we have a make from Autobot.   They say, so far so good, let's see what happens when the parts start moving. Okay, cool. Yeah, the idea is that it has a profile, a t-slotted profile, so that the aluminum extrusion can slide along the mount. And it has two tabs for screws. Very practical. I think you used this for the, was it for the hat? Yes, yeah, I hung hats off of it, yes. You can hang any other sort of thing though. After that we have a make from 3D Dave or 3Dave on printables. It is a make of the Kingdom Hearts Keyblade. No comment, but a really nice photo, so you can print your own Keyblade from Kingdom Hearts, all support-free parts. And there's mods for it too, if you want to print on a smaller bed, on a 3D printer that has a smaller bed. Cool, just in time for Halloween, huh? I mean, this was posted the day before Halloween, so yes. After that we have a make from Winair, this is the Raspberry Pi Zero Game Boy Pi Girl project. One day it'll be revisited. Winair says, I made this back in 2016. I will reprint the parts with my new printer. Breathe new life into this little project. Does that have, looks like it has the X3, X3D stuff? Maybe. Spooder stuff. Could be. Oh, hi, hi Winnie. Winnie wants to say hello. Let's use our house cat. After that we have another make of the heat set insert press. This one is from Tidechanger. It's a super easy print and fun to assemble, can't wait to put it to use. And they printed it in this lovely red and black combo. Wow. Looks like a stormtrooper. Yeah, and we're not done. Another make of the heat set insert press. This one's from Tayden in 85. They say easy to print. The base was made by me in Fusion 360. And they have this really nice hexagonal chamfered base that looks really cool. Looks like they used a different aluminum extrusion. This looks like a 2040. That's where you put two of them together. You have like this really rigid, you know, extrusion. But yeah, the base looks really cool. I wonder if their bed has that texture and that's like, why can't I like that? Also looks shiny. Looks very shiny. Yeah. Very cool. All right. I think the last one to round it off is a Circuit Playground Express snap fit mount posted up by Kratrix Brit. It says excuse the mess around. This is my make of the star model. The board fit perfectly and made all the differences in my droid build. What? Nice. Cool. Yeah. Yeah. This comes in different shapes, but it's just a nice easy notes, grew, snap fit solution for a Circuit Playground Express. It has these little tabs to hold the PCB down and then two extra mounting tabs. So you can secure that to another service. Don't forget space for a battery. Oh, that's right in space for a little battery if you want a nice all in one solution. So cool. Perfectly encompasses what our duties here are at a different. Yeah. Yeah. You build these things you never know where it's going to go and a droid is like we do this. Take all these components. Yeah. Add more value to your boards. All right. coupon code is noodles get 10% off. If you want to pick up some stuff, it's good for the next 24 hours. All right. We covered the whole hour, Pedro. Oh my God. Yeah. So we're over. Yeah, we're good. So next week will be this LED noodle tree. Then after that, I think the screens. Yeah, I think I'm going to do one more size. Should I do the bar? The bar. Probably the bar next, right? Yeah. Let's ask tonight. See if Lamar wants the bar. There's so many. Killer's choice kind of thing. Like I was in line. I said it. Get rid of so many displays. Too many displays. Oh my God. All right. Well, if you are feeling festive, it is the first of November. Yep. Plenty of time to tackle a holiday inspired project. Check out the learn system for all inspirations. And we're going to all be the socials. That's all that's going to be posted for the next two months. Yeah. All the holiday stuff. Cool. Anything else? Think that's it? Is it for this week? Cool. The coupon codes again. And then later tonight, we still got shows going on. Yep. At 7.30 p.m. Eastern time, we have show and tell. You can come on the StreamYard, join the Discord server. And then I think PT will post the link like 10 minutes before, five minutes before the show. And then after that is Ask Engineer at 8.00 p.m. Eastern time. Tune in for a full hour of open source hardware news, new products, Python news, and more on Ask Engineer. Thursday, tomorrow is JP's workshop. Tune in to see what JP's building and get recaps of all the fun stuff that JP's working on. Friday is a deep dive with either Tam Fomegai or Scott. Friday's at 5.00 p.m. Eastern, 2.00 p.m. Pacific. And then Lady Eight is on Sundays. From the desk of Lady Eight is on Sundays. At random hacker hours. Monday's is the Circuit Python Weekly meeting. Community chat. Tuesday's is JP's project of the week. Tuesday's is JP's project of the week. So we have a show for just about every day. I was gonna say dang. All right, that's gonna do it for us. Thanks everybody so much for tuning in live and for folks watching on the archive. We'll see you later tonight and next week. But until then remember to make a great day. Bye everybody. See you tonight.
